The Hollywood Reporter brings us the news that Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Gigi Pritzker (both of whom sound like heavy hitters on the Scrabble board) have optioned the rights to develop a movie based upon the Granddaddy of videogames, Space Invaders.
Despite the game's lack of backstory, a protagonist or any form of real plot, the duo are confident they'll be able to adapt the game to the big screen and are currently in the process of seeking a writer up to the task. I doubt my submission of BUM-BUM-BUM-BUM-PSHOO-PSHOO-BUM-BUM-BUM-BUM-WHOO-OO-OO really counts, but I'll throw it out there anyway.
We'll keep you posted.
