[I]The guys behind Lionsgate Entertainment’s GAMER, which just launched on Blu-ray Disc and DVD, have a videogame history beyond the Crank films. Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor, who co-wrote and co-directed all three films, also worked on a concept for a Grand Theft Auto videogame movie after Crank became a breakout international hit. Neveldine talks about his own gaming background and divulges why GTA hasn’t yet made it to the big screen in this exclusive interview.[/I]

[B]What videogames did you play growing up?[/B]

I played, Pac-man, Asteroids, Sinistar. Sinistar was my favorite game.

[B]Have you stuck with games over the years?[/B]

I didn’t stick with it. Towards the end of Atari and Nintendo Super Mario Bros. I was a player and that was it. I didn’t follow it. My brother did, but I didn’t. He is a radiologist and he looks at 100,000 images a day and plays videogames all night.

[B]Can you talk about how you got involved in a film that is immersed in a future videogame culture?[/B]

Yeah. It is kind of funny, we had this thought about live human videogames after watching reality TV and people wanting to be so involved in other people’s lives. I thought maybe it’s just not going to stop and we are going to get to the point we do in the film. I mean we are already manipulating people and if given the chance, we want to control people and maybe just take that leap and get to that world (in film) where that is happening. And we had some influences -- studios, the Internet, reading certain things about the end of the world and the age of technology and that stuff. At the end of the day it was a movie we wanted to be a little bit of warning, but mostly have fun and get off on the violence and menace of it all.
