So excited to see Kevin playing this again. His older videos of this game are some of my favorites.
I’ve never seen the old ones! Now I know what I’m doing with the rest of my afternoon 😂 thanks!
He’s played this before??? Good thing I’m off school this week because I’ll be here for a while
Literally! I only go back and watch the old ones, unfortunately I just don’t like some of these newer games, it does not reflect on Kevin! The Movies playthrough were hilarious
I know, right? I've seen those numerous times!
Old Kevin videos were epic! Jim Pickens the Harry Potter RP stuff was the peak.
The number of hours I spent playing this game as a kid is probably embarrassing. To be honest , as old as this game is, it's pretty complex and has pretty decent graphics. It's almost 20 years old.
I'm mad I never heard about this game until now... It's not even on Steam anymore :/
Me too! Still playing it sometimes :')
I as well can admit to an unhealthy number of hours spent not only by myself but my sister as well lol. Do you remeber the website where we could upload videos we made? there was one on there about a horse the line "I... am a horse" lives rent free lol
Back in the day i didn't understand English, since i'm from south américa, but i remeber i played this and spent houndreds of hours trying to understand how to make it work, this Game helpedme to learn some English ❤
@@carlynzwant this a ps2 Game? Download an emulator
I played the hell out of this back in the day.
My brother and I had a movie series called "Drunk Monkey", and the plot was always the same. We would use the gorilla costume, and the protagonist would start off in a bar, drinking his life away when something happens either in the bar, or on his way home. Kidnapped by a serial killer, attacked by aliens, pretty much anything.
He would always be killed at the end, but the abrupt, final scene would be him laying on the floor of the bar. It was all a dream.
thats genuinely so amazing, I would pay to see a movie like that
You should make it a tv series on adult swim. It would be amazing
Lol i'd watch
😂😂😂
@@samandom8772adult swim unfortunately isn’t what it used to be , I’d say it’s prime was 05-2015
"They came in peace and left in pieces". Well that cracked me😂😂😂
Hii
So it left you in pieces?
Made me think of the Dolph Lundgren movie "I Come in Peace". The alien says it to Dolph and Dolph replies in classic action one liner fashion "Well you're gonna leave in pieces"
@@ViktoriaMagrey Lol yeah!!
The robot being a vampire was a turning point that saved the movie. No wonder it earned so much money.
It was really the best trash films has to offer. Syfy horror ahead of its time, they trully peaked as a studio when they made it. It was unavoidable they would only go down after that.
It sure was a plot twist I didn't see coming!
"now that i have bitten you, you will turn into a robot.... or maybe die, i don't know it's my first day" sent me
Instant cult classic!
Vampire-Robot with the voice of JFK would be something I'd watch.
You know how all actors tell the same story like "I wasn't even competing for the role, I just got to the audition with a friend who wanted the role and they told me I looked perfect for the part!", well in the kevinverse that is more or less like this "I was a janitor for a movie company and one day the producer looked me in the eyes and told me I was going to be a great movie star! Of course, the movies I did never made any money and I'm starting to think that they just needed someone willing to act, but whatever..."
He's simply ahead of his time
I actually had something similar happen to me in a student film. Except I was going to talk to them about being an extra and they asked me if I was interested auditioning. Mainly cause they hadn't found someone that looked the part they needed and they told me the last girl couldn't take directions. I hadn't attended any auditions before that, I think, but thankfully there wasn't enough time to get nervous about a sudden audition. Less nervous since it was a student film and not a big company.
@@bvintage3508 I hope you got the Bunting
@@bvintage3508 Wow. What a break. XD
More like Kevin's godly hand looked down on them and forcefully dragged their bodies to a specific area and then made them a prisoner, magically. 😂
David Bunting's first instinct when he saw harmless aliens was chuck a granade inside the ship he was also inside of. Absolute classic.
An American classic.
From what I remember this game's default movie studio name is "Tee Rash Studios", so Kevin naming his "Trash Films" proves he was on the same wavelength as the developers when playing this
Kevin is the type of director to commit terrible atrocities and then create movies based on them and pass their inspirations off as “undocumented historical events” by replacing himself with an old, balding man named Jim.
This js suspiciously specific. Shall I be scared of you?
@@Idkpleasejustletmechangeit don’t be scared of me, be scared of *him*
@@RhyzVids Don't be afraid of the *dear leader*
eh i dont see it
So his UA-cam channel?
I hope Kill Joy makes a return, starring Jim Pickens from the hit film Kill Joy 2.
If we got more Kill Joy, it would be amazing
Might be a controversial take, but Kill Joy 2 was pretty mid compared to the reboot.
Poor Ben. He came angrily from a rival studio and lost everything and developed a drinking problem 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Probably the stories of many forgotten actors of the past.
Just for people who don't know, There's a game supposedly coming out this year called Blockbuster Inc, which is supposedly like a spiritual successor to The Movies. A prologue is free on steam for anyone wanting to try it.
There's also Movies Tycoon coming out this year on Steam. I've wishlisted both of them.
@@Jws61187 Didn't know that, thanks for sharing, will add it to my wishlist
Wishlisted both, thanks! I miss The Movies sooo much
30 seconds in "I never make any mistakes and we've burned through half our money" I 100% believe that Kevin is a real movie producer
He is a movie producing genius!
i saw this and thought "yeah, ill watch those old kevin videos again" and i have never been so pleasantly surprised
Same here!
Same! Although now I really am in a mood to rewatch those older ones....
"They came in Peace and Left in Pieces" is probably the best line in the history of film. It will be quoted more often than things like "Luke, I am your Father" and hopefully misquoted as well.
RIP Lionhead studios, thanks for bringing us this amazing goofy game
This game was an absolute gem.
😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥🔥
I loved Black and White.. It was such a neat idea for its time.
@@jimlthor It still holds up beautifully, shockingly. Absolute Masterpiece.
Didn't Peter Molyneux have a reputation of over promising and under delivering on his games ?
The fact that my dad is also called David Bunting made this an amazing watch aha
Random Joy!
Give him regards from us the random internet strangers (or me, just give him regards, and wish him a great day), he's a movie star now!
Your dad is my new cinematic hero
How does it feel like being a side character in Kevin's movie?
Give him my regrads
3:38 "I am not just a robot, I am a vampire robot" -Sims 2 Servos
The Buntining was pure directorial genius. Gold. 10/Kevin.
Oscar worthy indeed
Completely agree this is one of the best sim games. I used to make films through this as a kid and get my parents to voice the actors. My friends rediscovered them on my computer when I was at uni and we still quote the ridiculous lines I came up with as a kid 😅 happy memories!
Oh I loved this game as a child! I remember that I screwed with the ingame radio in the Games files so all it played was the Song Fireflies by Owl City. It wasn‘t intentional.
That would probably make me go insane.
Good taste
Hiring the janitor as an actor because he looks good is what the "Club Dorothée" did in France and it worked quite well for them.
"Our director has a problem, she can't stop eating when she's supposed to be working" same Kevin, same.
For those of you trying to run it, if I remember correctly, you have to run it in compatibility mode on Windows. I’m pretty sure I played it on my Windows 10 machine. Right click the program (specifically the .exe file), select the Compatibility tab, check the box that says “Run this program in compatibility mode for”, and select Windows 7 in the drop-down list. It should run properly. Hope this helps.
Kevin making movies gotta be one of my favourite genres
wizards are an animal!
I have a feeling that in 70 years, on a strange platform called "UA-cam" that exists within the weird invention called the "World Wide Web", some guy who calls himself a "UA-camr" will make a funny video about the film Moonworm that will get popular and this wonderful underrated movie that was ahead of its time will finally get the recognition it deserves. A happy ending. I love happy endings!
I prefer Starmasher due to how experimental it is they really made a 1 of a kind movie
Actually prior to the 70s if a film wasn't a hit they just burned it
@@danielmallory4687 No, that clearly said "Archive" not "Trashfire"; tho understandable, the words do look very similar
@@SylviaRustyFae true like Sylvia and loser they are pretty much the same word
@@danielmallory4687 Actually Sylvia and Loser are nothin alike; you rly need to get your eyes checked, or your humourdar checked
The closing of the book in sad man gosh it was so emotional😭 i cried
11:48 When the partner of the dead guy said "Bkoaak Bkook"...
I felt that.
David Bunting was the Brendan Fraser of the 1950s
It baffles me that there’s never been another release like this since. I still have this game loaded up onto my computer so many years later because it’s the only game I can make goofy films like this so easily.
Blockbuster Inc and Movies Tycoon are upcoming games similar to The Movies
These look promising! Thanks for the heads up.
Kevin, I'm so excited to see you play this again! I still rewatch your older videos of it, and they still hold up amazingly well!
oh gosh I remember the og batch of The Movies videos in middle school when I broke my arm and fell in love with Kevin's content under the influence of so much pain medicine. Nostalgia
David Bunting's story is basically Harrison Fords😂
my favorite scene was when david bunting said "its buntin time!" and bunted all over the scene
that definitely was one of the scenes in the movie history
booooooooooooooooooo
kevins videos from 3-5 years ago are gold. glad he's trying the older games again
I can’t wait for Kevin saying “I never make mistakes” to be taken wildly out of context and memed to all hell
"I don't give a cluck" was right there!
I remember playing this game as a kid. I laughed my arse off watching the movie because all my actors were drunk and some started building the set. Then someone slipped on a banana and I had no idea what was intentional anymore but it worked. I had no idea what I was doing.
I think the older videos of you playing this were some of the first I watched of yours and found them hilarious. So pleased to see you playing this again!
The old videos of this game are so important to me. I was goin through a really hard time in life when these came out and I would watch them over and over. I always remembered as those videos as the funniest kev vids to me. It’s so nice to see him make another one of these. Love you Kevin
Don’t know if Kevin can top his previous movie in this game - where Hitler runs him over with a car - but I remain optimistic
That film was a master piece. Trash films productions couldnt compare.
Out of context that's the weirdest fuckin' sentence. It's not much less weird in context
Trash Film's best Features:
-Janitors becoming actors
-Buildings literally inside the gates
-Random Vampire Robots
And David Bunting
Model T Fords around every corner
Actually working in Hollywood i nearly died when Kevin said "Im going to ruin this actors reputation so he can never work in films again"
Someone knows how take role-play to a super ACCURATE level!
One of these days instead of saying "thank you for watching" Kevin will say "I apologise for what you just watched"
The graphics remind me of Sims 2...good times with the alien babies cooked in the grill and the never ending suffering of the blonde guy
There is a game on Steam called Blockbuster, Inc. that's pretty much the successor to this game. There is a free prologue out right now. Personally, I don't think it's as fun as the movies; but it's still fun for what it is. The movies can't be topped, IMO. Incredible game.
Oh, I'm so glad you posted this comment. I have the Blockbuster demo and have been putting off playing it because of my fond memories of the Movies series (DLC or expansion packs, I don't recall what the add-ons were called). Looking forward to someone's video review of this game. 👀👀
@@Player_D The add on was called Stunts and effects 😁! Ah, I love the series so much. Haha! Also, please give Blockbuster Inc a try! It's still a really fun game that brings back memories, it isn't bad at all; but it's so hard to top the movies. Haha!
@@Onoitsbroko Thanks! I'll try it.
+
Thanks. There's also an upcoming one called 'Movies Tycoon' which also has a demo.
Loved this series a few years ago. Glad to see you replaying some games!
I adored this game as a kid! My friends and I would play on some sleepovers and giggle as the actors lip synced to our voices and we used the Stunts and Effects pack to cause extra mayhem 😂 I'm glad to see someone else enjoying and covering this. It was also my first time editing the registry on the computer so I could enter a cheat for this game.
Moonworm was undeniably better acted than The Last Avatar 2010.
Not exatcly a high bar to surpass, but considering the level of Kevins other movies, its cetainly worth mentioning.
Oh my god it happened. This is a barely known game that only me and a couple of kids in town knew about. Later on the internet I discovered it was barely heard of. I loved it when I was young, I used to spend hours on it.
He played it a few times years ago.
He’s got a few videos on it from like 5-6 years ago if you feel like watching more!
no way it’s been that many years since he played it *already??*
I binge-watch your videos all of the time. Your sense of humor is just too cool, my friend. Keep up the great work!
25:32 BEST LINE EVER They came in peace and left in pieces!
Another masterpiece from the greatest filmmaker of our generation
I love it when Kevin Spielberg takes over the channel to make some movies
OMG I remember seeing this game randomly like 10 years ago and wondering what it was ever since! Thank you for playing older games like this!
Can't believe to see Kevin play this. I loved the videos he made from this game :)
Hope to see more!
This is by far one of my favorite let's-play series of Kevin's. So happy to see it return!
I wonder if there are any wacky mods for this game that Kevin could take advantage of.
Turns out there ARE mods for it on nexus so maybe!
Imagine my confusion when I'd been rewatching old series and "The Movies" pops up, but I hadn't already seen it?? New video time!!
love to see you playing this game again!! would be great if you revisited some other older games you played
Ayyy, return of a classic! Love to see you play more of this!
1:16 This kind of reminds me of how Frank Silva got the role of BOB in Twin Peaks. Silva was a set designer for the show and David Lynch decided to cast him after a mirror caught Silva's reflection during a scene they were filming. (Lynch already had Silva in mind for a part because of an earlier onset incident but this is the moment that lead to Silva becoming BOB)
He was a set dresser. RIP Frank Silva.
If I'm remembering right (and I'm probably not) Harrison Ford was pretty much a carpenter working on the set of Star Wars and George Lucas was like "eh... He'll do".
That one Time I wrote a Movie about 3 People in Chicken Suits that was so long that Actors retired during filming🙃
There is finally a game being made that is the sequel to this one. It is called Blockbuster Inc if you are interested.
It still needs a lot of work I think but I really hope it can catch the magic that is The Movies.
Now we just need a remake of Ghost Master.
Omg loved when you used to play this!! Love our shenanigans. Made me realise ive been watching you forever lol
Kevin is now a cinematic genius
I love how there is this part of a building called just "Fire".
I was just re watching all of your the movies videos!!! I’m so happy you have a new one!!!
Easily one of my favorite games I’ve ever watched you play. Seeing you bring it back is amazing. It never fails to make me laugh😭🤣🤣
0:02 So THE SIMS is not Mr. Callme's favourite simulator game....
WHAT!!?? Ooga booga??
Biggest plot twist of all time
The Sims is his favourite Life Simulator, but not Simulator as a whole
I love the Movies! It's one of a select few games I actually have on physical media from the early 00's. A high-def remaster of this game would be a hit I think, the gameplay loop is already really engaging.
duuude, this reminded me a lot of a game called pop star academy. it was a lot like sims but with levels and shows you had to prepare for. idk if it's still possible to find it but kevin you should totally play that sometime, it was so cursed, i loved it sm 😭
Kevin I just wanted to say that You are my favorite youtuber ! I always laugh and I can relate to the way you play and I also have adhd so I´m a "Scatterbrain Jane" too xD ! Also you seem like such a nice genuine person :)
Love from Sweden !
The return of one of my favorite series you've ever done! Best day ever! thanks Kev!
Kevin looking suave as hell in that jacket while ruining the film industry is somehow so beautifully poetic
I've wanted 2 months for more of this game.
I stumbled across this channel a few days ago and I feckin love it
0:40 rural musty cellar
Where kevin records his videos
Can we all appreciate the fact Kevin keeps us locked up in Jim Pickens' basement?
nice gameplay man. I didn't even knew this game back then. I laughed hard when you tried and tried creating a good movie. Nice stuff though
10x better than I was initially expecting. You are such an entertaining person!
Kevin may not be Pregnant, but never fails to deliver
Well, Except for that one time...
When he got hit by a car?
@@user-te2oc6qi9z I'm referring to his Sims character in Sims 2
From the wonderful mind that wrote The Supermarket Monster. 😂 These movies were amazing.
Thats a seal of aproval right there, the only one you would ever need. Should be prudly proclamed in every poster.
I absolutely adore this game, I'd love to see you play more of it
I just love how Kevin keeps returning to these old silly games :))
Moonworm is truly the greatest film of its time. More proof that Kevin is a filmmaking genius.
Kevin: I got a plan we just need money!!!
Dutch: I like this guy
I am such a huge fan of Kevin's storytelling, and it is lovely how much he stuck to elevate David Bunting to stardom. So touching, inspiring! 🤩
I always seem to find myself binging kevin whenever I get into my depressive episodes,
he's such a bright light in the dark times of my life.
I feel like Kevin would make a movie like "our drawings" one day
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who made a pitstop in that insane universe before coming here
@@Jupiter-T first time I watched it I was high 😅 it was.. weird
"Are you from Ohio or something?"
"DaAAAaaaUUUuGH"
Didnt get to the see critic reports at the end of "The Buntining"
I look forward to the 5 sequals and 3 prequals to that beloved franchise too
“They came in peace and left in pieces” such a legendary quote
Omg this was 3 days ago! I didn’t notice til now, I’m so happy you’re back to these older games 😊
Kevin playing a game he played years ago?
We eating good tonight ladies and gentlemen
This game looks like a DLC to Sims 3 lol
It look fun and pretty details though
Laughed my ass off watching this one. I owned and played that "back in the day" and it was awesome the life you added to the movie scenes. I may even try re-installing The Movies and it's expansion and getting it to work on my gaming PC. Thanks!
Just a reminder. This game is nearly 20 years old. Still holds up. That is quality gaming.
"they came in peace but left in pieces" this is now my one of my favorite quotes
Honestly a hidden gem, used to love this game as a kid! Thanks for playing it!
Love your vids with this game theyre so good!
Hit 'em with the Jeb Bush "Please clap", never fails to be funny.
