I usually wouldn't be making a big deal about a video game appearing in a movie, because when they do they're usually Halo, Mortal Kombat, or some other obvious action title. But did you ever think you'd see Shadow of the Colossus, a game whose sheer perfection was surpassed only by how little attention anybody paid it, in a movie?
I was watching the trailer for the upcoming movie Reign over Me, an Adam Sandler/Don Cheadle movie that looks pretty somber and dramatic, when they showed a brief scene of the two main characters playing SotC.
It seems like the scene is meant to come off as a bit of an awakening for the Cheadle character. Maybe when the film comes out, the game will see a resurgence in sales?
