Checkpoint Intimates: The Cinema Conversation

Video Games

Checkpoint Intimates is a weekly podcast where two members of the team go one-on-one on a topic that they both feel strongly about, talking in a more deeper and, yes, intimate context.

This week, Cam and Rachel are on board to follow up our episode about video game movies with more chat about the cinema! This time, they’re looking at movies that have been inspired or influenced by video games in some way without directly referencing a franchise.

Films like Wreck-it-Ralph, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Ready Player One, Scott Pilgrim vs. The Universe and Pixel, just to name a few! Tune in to hear all about them and find some new films to add to your must watch list!

For all the latest updates as always, head to our official website at checkpointgaming.net.
