    It's so interesting how one of the most iconic games of all time almost never made it outside of its home country. This movie is great.

    37:13 Nintendo's licence of Tetris expired in 1996, and all rights reverted back to ELORG, which became a private company after the Soviet Union fell, and to Alexey, who co-founded the Tetris Company with Henk. ELORG owned 50% of Tetris until the Tetris Company bought ELORG in 2005. Now, Henk and Alexey (and Maya) own all worldwide rights on all platforms.

    39:46 I was curious about the same thing, so I did some checking to see what Henk's other kids and Alexey's sons are up to now. I learned that Henk's daughter Julie Rogers is co-founder and executive director of the Akahiao Nature Institute, his son Leonard Rogers is founder and CEO of a company called R Bridge, his other son Michael Rogers used to be Chief Agricultural Officer for an app called Smart Yields, and Alexey's son Peter Pajitnov is a lawyer in Seattle.
    I also learned that Alexey's other son, Dimitri, passed away in a skiing accident in 2017. RIP Dimitri Pajitnov. 😢

    Fun fact - actor, who played Alexey, Nikita Efremov, had major role in Russian series "Londongrad" in 2015 and had a joke about Tetris.
    For me, in this film there are so much stereotypes for both sides. But I kinda like it anyway.
    Thank you!

      You know, I think it's cool that all the Russian characters were portrayed by Russian actors (except Gorbachev, who was played by a British actor). I particularly thought Igor Grabuzov was phenomenal.

      Fun fact, Lebedeva, who plays Sasha, has previously played in one of the best Russian TV series of recent years, The Last Minister, where in the finale she realizes that her leader, whom she considered an example and respected, turns out to be a corrupt official.

    Awesome reaction just little fun fact there was an interview where they said that 70% of the stuff in this movie didn't really happen they definitely dramatized a lot of stuff for the sake of film like the Russian agents from the embassy threatening his wife and the car chase never happened and nobody was beat up in the streets or anything like that but there was definitely some pressure and they had an eye kept on them while in Russia

    You want to hear something crazy? Apparently, because Henk Rogers is of partial Indonesian descent, Taron Egerton's casting was criticized as whitewashing. Which I think is crazy, because like you said, he was brilliant.

    Taron Egerton has been killing it. His performance in Black Bird miniseries was also great. Based on a true story, Black Bird is an intense and suspenseful viewing unearthing a serial killer who preys on young girls. Taron obviously plays the protagonist, without spoiling anything. A bit heavy for this channel beyond what Eric usually reacts to, but a good watch away from YT if you're fan of Egerton.

    Tetris the perfect game?
    It's just blocks and clearing lines.
    I played Armored Core 6 and THAT is a perfect game.
    Yes, it has a learning curve but at least it's perfect.

    It's kind of interesting that you said you don't consider yourself a capitalist, yet look around you in your video. You certainly reap all the benefits of capitalism. Rather hypocritical to say that, because what else would you believe in if not that?
