    This is episode 204 of the Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN)! When it comes to movie-based games, you’d think The Nerd covered them all by now, but here’s another one based on the Bruce Willis film, Hudson Hawk on NES. The movie is a bit of a mixed bag, so lets see what kind of "bag' the game is! Released by Sony Imagesoft in 1991 for the Nintendo Entertainment System, you play as the titular Hudson Hawk (Willis), the world's greatest thief, who is forced to steal three of Da Vinci's precious artifacts by the Mario Brothers Mafia. The movie also starred Danny Aiello, Andie MacDowell, Richard E. Grant, and Sandra Bernhard.

    Electronic Gaming Monthly actually has a pretty amusing story involving this game. Apparently their editors worked out this big promotion for both the movie and the game and they wanted to have it on their front cover. The end result was a low-res cut-out pic of Bruce Willis awkwardly standing on the right side the side of the cover next to headlines and thumbnails of other stories inside that particular issue. Electronic Gaming Monthly would later call it their worst cover ever, especially after both the movie and the game went on to flop hard.

    Wasnt there a thing in the movie where he timed something by singing the "would you like to swing on a star" song? Like wouldnt it have made sense to have like a musical level where it had that music and maybe you have to avoid traps using the timing in the song?
    I dunno maybe im insane and remembered that all wrong since its been like 30 years.

      Thanks! It's actually a really simple edit. I stood off camera, and took the beer out of James's hand while he stayed as still as possible. Then he did a reaction shot after I got out of frame. The bottle breaking is just a png of the bottle that I photoshopped out of his hand and used the shatter effect in AfterEffects on. Then it's just a matter of cutting the two shots together, adding a stock water splash effect, and tweeking the physics of the shatter effect
