Ha! That's blatant! The artist must have thought the movie is so ancient no-one would spot it.

It reminds me of when some movie stars do the publicity circuit to pimp their latest work and repeat the same jokes and anecdotes verbatim from one TV or radio interview to the next and pass it off as spontaneous wit.

The perfect example came a few weeks back when Michael Caine went on Jonathan Ross's talk show to publicise 'Youth'. He mustn't have imagined anyone would tune in to this as well as Simon Mayo's radio show.

As a follow-up to the second post it looks like the source of the In 80 Days Around The World box was probably High Road to China, an 1983 Raiders of the Lost Ark "tribute" which featured Brian Blessed instead of John Rhys-Davies. Tom Selleck was originally to play Indiana Jones but was unable to due to contractual obligations with Magnum, P.I.

" dont get cocky!" Wanderer 3D

*edit*

..and by that I mean this game apparently "borrowed" inspiration from Star Wars.



I could be wrong though....

I know this is really dumb, as you probably don't recognize the person, but I always thought that the other co-founder of my current employer, RedLynx (the company might be recognizable though), always looked so familiar from the moment I went there.
