Well, it’s finally happened; there’s going to be a Penny Arcade movie. The Seattle team of Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins (AKA Tycho and Gab) which have referred to Spokane as the ruptured a&$hole of America. But you do need to to take something critical into account, it is cheap to live there. Like us a couple of us here at ToT, they grew up in the Spokane area. But they lived in Mead, which was the afflluent part of the town.
Now the film isn’t based upon the ongoing hijinks of web-comic superstars Tycho and Gabe. Instead, the upcoming Paramount picture is an animated adaptation of a one-off Penny Arcade comic strip called “The New Kid.”
PAX Prime wil be this August 26-28 in downtown Seattle.
