That sound like it came from the movie theater and it's also the same year that the TRON movie was released that year(1982).

I can't believe this--that's rotoscope animation circa 1982. Am I wrong?

@eyeh8nbc You have to look it up, I would love to see that in high quality.

Was this commercial made using an Intellivision?

2 people played Atari today.

Bobby: I Have an idea.

Luke: What?

Bobby: Lets Promote the Worst Games Made for our Video Computing System.

Luke: That is a Terrable Idea.

Bobby: Too late. ^^

Luke: Fuck you.

It's sad this ad made the Intellivision look horrible.

Yeah this commercial only ran in theaters before the show started. I've wanted to see it again since '82. Love youtube! Thanks for posting it!

[MattTheSaiyan]

I will soon be getting my Intellivision back in working order....can't wait to play it some more!

I have a 35mm copy of this, found it in a drawer at a movie theater I worked at. How did you get this transferred?  I have a bunch of other stuff on 35mm I'd love to get transferred to video in decent quality.

Did this really happen?

@howelldrake rotoscoping is an old technique, but to do it to then animate on computer was certainly innovative at that point in time
