Our pizza pals over at FilmDrunk started this one, but we are going to finish him. I mean it. What? Basically, this week’s game combines everyone’s three favorite things: movies, puns, and food trucks! Did you know that in 2011, 93% of all the food eaten in Los Angeles was served by a food truck? As with all real statistics, I have no documentation to back that up, but you know that it is almost certainly true. (Meanwhile, in New York, only 40% of all food was served by a food truck, and it was all some fucking Belgian waffles or something. Kill yourself, New York.) Anyway, inspired by the Grillenium Falcon truck, which makes grilled cheese (cool truck) and which you can probably follow on Twitter (cool Twitter) this game is all about other delicious trucks that combine puns with movie titles with food. (If you still don’t get it, please email me at kelly@videogum.com.) So:
- Chili Elliot
- The Hills Have Fries
- Reuben Without a Sauce
- Bridge on the River Pie
- Lord of the Onion Rings: the Return of the Ketchup
- Deep Shrimpact
- Omelet The Right One In
What a delicious game to play. GET IN MAH BELLY. Hahahha. AUSTIN POWDEREDDONUTSERS.
