Donkey Kong (NES version) sighted in Jerusalem

"At Ben Yehuda Street on Thursday night, people could play a huge Donkey Kong game that was projected on two walls of a building. The old 8-bit sounds of the game were amplified as well."

Haha, no way. The answer is clearly Sanic the Hedgehag.

Also, reminds me of another "Dankey Kang, Dankey Kang, Dankey Kang..." video.   ;)

This isn't really news, however I thought it should be shared.  Apparently there was talk about a "dramatic" remake of the KOK back in 2011.  This photo was originally from a random twitter page, Ben Stiller makes a good Billy Mitchel and it almost looks like the "Original King of Kong" sitting at the cab. :D

It is!



Looks like his noggin, and that's definitely a Steve Sanders shirt.

The scripted remake was being talked about when the movie originally came out in 2007. I always thought it was a weird idea, and it's too bad it never happened. Now of course there's absolutely no chance of it happening because it's been too long, too much has changed, etc.

It's 5 years old but doesn't seem to have been mentioned here before. Seems to be an advert for a movie theater, Alamo Drafthouse.
