80s Movies/Video Game Mashups by Joshua Gilbert

I love me some mash-ups, especially if they involve some of my favorite 80's movies. Artist Joshua Gilbert has plenty of talent for making some killer movie posters (he has some great stuff for sale on Etsy by clicking here), but he knocked out two mash-ups that take the cake. How about a Labyrinth/Pac-Man mash-up that features and awesome grid like board with Jareth holding the baby Toby hostage in the middle. Think that is the coolest it could get? How about Dark Crystal Donkey Kong? Skeksi Kong... are you fucking kidding me? These are two fantastic pieces that need to be shared with my fellow 80s babies. Check out more of Gilbert's art over at his Deviant Art page, buy some of his work on Etsy, and you can check out the Labyrinth and Dark Crystal pieces after the jump...

Chuck Norris Takes On Your Favorite Video Games... And Kicks Their Ass!!!

Chuck Norris has long been the punchline for countless jokes and situational skits based on his invincibility.  But video artist Daneboy decided to pit the Big Red Machine against some of our favorite video game titles from the past 30 years. These 40 second clips depict an 8-bit Norris taking on the viscous green pigs of Angry Birds, level 1-1 of Super Mario Brothers, and the sneaky ghosts of Pacman. Enjoy all three clips after the jump and remember that nobody can defeat Chuck Norris.... NOBODY!!!

Pac-Man Gets A Samurai Makeover

What if Pac-Man was a samurai warrior and the ghosts he was battling were Japanese Oni spirits? Artist Jared Moraitis decided to come up with his own interpretation of that and it is absolutely outstanding! This is so vibrant and full of color and the tie in is so apparent, so in my eyes this is a perfectly executed mash-up. Click here to see more of Jared's work and click here to also buy a button set of the Oni's featured above by clicking here. You can see the full size image after the jump...

Stanley Kubrick Presents: The Shining Video Game by Mr. Whaite

Mr. Whaite made this very creative advertisement for a Shining/Pacman video game mashup featuring Jack-Man on his quest through the Overlook Maze as he avoids the Grady Girl Ghosts and eat axe pallets to capture his family!!!! God, I wish this was playable...
