In the age of YouTube, James Rolfe, aka the Angry Video Game Nerd, managed to take video game reviewing and make it a viable source of entertainment. While obviously not the first video game reviewer, he quickly became one of the most popular internet personalities and still is today. His fanbase has been long awaiting his movie, which due to the level of production has taken a long time, but it appears to be finally nearing completion.
Rolfe has been giving updates to his board of remaining VFX shots, as seen above, over the last many months and they are finally on the final part, though it does include 55 shots, 22 of which are done.
The full picture is locked, meaning there will be no more edits to the movie that will affect timing. Sound and music are now underway!
Meanwhile, I’m working on editing DVD extras which could take several months.
We are also in the process of booking theaters to screen the movie. I am very anxious to announce the premiere date/location, but we need to get everything set and confirmed first. It won’t be too much longer, before I have an epic update. Theatrical screenings will begin happening this summer. DVD/Blu-ray/Online release will happen by the end of the year, just like I said in my Inside Look video.
He also teased an upcoming AVGN episode that will celebrate the 10 year anniversary of the internet series.
