Just Watch the Short Film Pixels Was Based on and You Can Skip the Movie

There. Now you don’t have to go see Adam Sandler’s Pixels, which you probably weren’t going to do anyway—unless you had a major urge to watch a couple hours of mullet!Dinklage, which I would totally understand.

Although, because it’s a big-budget movie, I’m sure the theatrical Pixels will have a (spoilers if you didn’t wait the two minutes to read this!) happier ending. Maybe Adam Sandler will prevent the Earth from turning into one giant pixel with the Konami code? Or by plugging a Game Genie into the aliens like the end of Independence Day but even sillier?

Either way, one thing’s for sure: we much prefer this video’s happier version of glowing, pixelated Pac Man.
