I think that lady in the middle is the lady in the beginning of Halloween II. The one who says "Do you want mayonnaise on your sandwich? How bout mustard? Are you asleep again?". It is a scene that always cracks me up.
@checkunderyourbed - Pitfall was horrible, even when I was 6. Now Berzerk and Centipede, those were decent games... and then when my folks got me the NES I thought "it couldn't possibly get any better than this" and then SNES came out with Zelda Link to The Past and Secret of Mana and I thought wow, it's almost like a cartoon.
@WiiClassic2usb Believe me...I don't condone the play of any version of Pitfall lol. I've played that game and it's sequels. Pitfall never gets better with new technology.
@lowgeemudbone IIRC, you had 20 minutes to get as far along as possible. There were only 255 screens. My brother and I mapped out the entire game on a rainy Saturday in 1983.
you noticed at the end they credited the game designer? That was a major reason why several senior developers at Atari quit and started their own company; Atari was basically giving them no credit for their work. It's good to know they added the designer's name in the commercial, even if no one probably gave a crap at the time.
Someone had mentioned that girl is in fact Tanya Fenmore. She was the young Mrs.Weinstein for the remake of the Kick the can episode for the Twilight Zone movie.
I wish that they still made commercials like this -- but was a stick on a screen traveling through slow and annoying obstacles really THAT entertaining?
@EastCoastDude99 Do you come & troll Youtube videos because you're lonely? Are you a social outcast amongst your peers or do you have a really tiny penis? Hee hee. I bet it's one of them. :D
I remember this commercial. Loved playing the game, too, of course, The girl at the end is a child actress from the 80s named Tanya Fenmore. She was also in Pennies From Heaven.
I remember this video as well. Had no idea who Jack Black was back then however. He hasn't changed really. Still looks the same, just smaller. Still has the same expression and emotion. I love it. Jack is awesome.Never was able to beat that damn game. I did beat the sequel though.
