Actor Jack Black is a big fan of video games, and specifically Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption series, and he thinks it's too bad that there hasn't been a Red Dead movie yet.

Speaking to Polygon, Black said it's a "shame" that Rockstar isn't making a Red Dead movie because the games are "the most cinematic" and would seemingly lend themselves nicely to a big-screen adaptation. "It would be, like, too easy to make them into great movies," he said, adding that he would love to be in a Red Dead movie if anyone asked him.

"Hey Housers? Dan, Sam, I'm waiting for your call," he said, referencing the Rockstar founder brothers. Dan Houser left Rockstar in 2020 to start a new company, Absurd Ventures. Sam Houser remains at Rockstar and is its current president.

The Super Mario Galaxy movie is primed for a predictably massive opening weekend despite mixed reviews, but the biggest surprise may be the non-Mario characters who make an appearance. Just ahead of the film's opening Nintendo revealed that Fox McCloud appears alongside all the Mushroom Kingdom denizens. If all that fancy flying puts you or your kids in the mood to explore the Star Fox oeuvre, we're here to help.

Star Fox is a traditional on-rails space shooter starring a team of anthropomorphic starfighter pilots. The team itself is called Star Fox, and Fox McCloud is the team leader. The other pilots--in most games, Peppy, Falco, and Slippy--are your wingmen. The series debuted on the Super NES in 1993, showing off rudimentary but at-the-time mind-blowing 3D effects. So should you track down the original Star Fox and get shooting? Not necessarily.
