geo Posted August 23, 2015 You loved Kung Fury, because you're human, but will you enjoy this Madden 16 trailer? Forget showing the game, this is over the top 80s action as only a parody can do. Headbands, mustaches, men in midriffs, a ninja takes 100 head slaps, there's a dinosaur and a mech pack shooting footballs. Chances are it was filmed at a cost of 8 times more than Fury's entire budget. Discuss! 0 Share this post Link to post

BaronOfStuff Posted August 23, 2015 Over here the "same game every year" is that FIFA shit. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jaxxoon R Posted August 23, 2015 "Why the fuck are they even giving us an advertising budget? People already know what the game's going to be, they'll just buy it even if we throw screenshots tied to bricks through their windows. What's the point? You watch, even if we do something that has nothing to do with anything it won't even matter. It's Madden" 0 Share this post Link to post

FireFish Posted August 23, 2015 What the hell did i just watch ? Repetition based humor, a black metrosexual slapping a ninja, explosions, a dinsosaur, a ball-based-machine-gun, weird car scenes, an attempt at turning bad emotions into humor ? I have never even heard of kung fury before today, maybe that eplains why i dont get it, and cant find any humor in it next to what 9 year old kids call humor. 0 Share this post Link to post
HavoX Posted August 23, 2015 I just saw the commercial a while ago... it was awful. It didn't even make any sense. 0 Share this post Link to post

Yeah I was happy Kung Fury was only 30 mins. The random humor wore thin on me. I think Family Guy popularized random humor. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jaxxoon R Posted August 23, 2015 At least Kung Fury made an attempt to weave its stupid jokes into the story. Family Guy just goes "HEY LOUIS REMEMBER THAT THING WITH CELEBRITY" and then cuts to a skit. 0 Share this post Link to post
Annunakitty Posted August 27, 2015 The magic of Kung Fury was the dreamy effects and editing. It wasn't that terribly funny, but otherwise a beautiful love letter to 80's aesthetic. This video is more "Scary Movie" level parody and is really nothing like Kung Fury. 0 Share this post Link to post

This video is more "Scary Movie" level parody and is really nothing like Kung Fury. I agree with this statement. The characters in Kung Fury, while silly, still had some chemistry going. Probably the most attention I'll ever give to a Madden game, though. 0 Share this post Link to post

Philnemba Posted August 28, 2015 I have to admit it, I actually like the cheesiness of the trailer despite being a trailer of the millionth Madden game that I really don't give two shits about.
