The Single Most Realistic Depiction Of Cyberspace Everting

Somehow in our write-up of lame video games you see people playing in science fiction, we neglected the fantastic Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over, which you really have to be five years old, or on five kinds of drugs, to appreciate. Sylvester Stallone is the toymaker, who's created a really cheesy looking virtual reality 3-D game involving laser stick battles. And in the end, Sly somehow lets the game out into the real world. So Antonio Banderas, Carla Gugino, Ricardo Montalban, Steve Buscemi and Bill Paxton, plus about 20 others, have to team up to save us from giant robots that you can only see if you wear special glasses. Someone who has a fetish for cowboys branding robots has seen this movie 10,000 times. [IMDB]
