''Pixels'' is a 2010 French animated short film written and directed by Patrick Jean. It is about an invasion of New York City by classic 8-bit video game characters, such as those from ''Space Invaders'', ''Pac-Man'', ''Tetris'', ''Arkanoid'' and others. The film won the Annecy Crystal for Best Short Film at the 2011 Annecy International Animated Film Festival. ==Plot== A man walks over to a trash can, puts a 1980s-era television by it, and leaves. A few seconds go by, then the TV turns on and shows colored bars. An 8-bit picture of a bomb shows up and the simulated fuse runs out, causing the TV screen to shatter, releasing a cloud of pixels (illustrated as voxels because of the three-dimensionality of the scene). The pixels fly over to New York City and head in various directions. Space Invaders start to shoot downwards; on contact, the projectiles cause a delivery truck and two taxis to degenerate into pixels. A cloud of pixels then flies down the stairs into a subway, eventually forming into Pac-Man, which eats the subway trains and stations as it travels the tunnels. Its progress is shown on the subway status display, similar to the cleared-away dots on the original game screen. Giant Tetris tiles then match up with floors of skyscrapers. One building gets a "Tetris", eliminating several mid-level floors, and the building's top falls onto the remainder of the building. Arkanoids come and destroy the bricks of the Brooklyn Bridge's pier, resulting in the bridge collapsing. Donkey Kong then throws a barrel from the Empire State Building and flattens a traffic light as well as breaking off a fire hydrant, from which sprays suddenly pixelated water. Frogger does not do damage, as he is (as in the game) trying to cross traffic unharmed. Finally, a giant pixelated bomb is shown. When it explodes, everything around it starts become pixelated: buildings, parks, traffic lights, the landscape around, and finally the entire Earth. Earth is shown changing to a single giant, cubic voxel. The last scene shows it rotating as it drifts away. The end credits are shown as a high-score list. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pixels (2010 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
