I am being completely honest when I say I would want Jack Black in a Pitfall movie based on the game. Jack Black was in the games commercials, so it would be a nice way to round that off.
"I........... am ~~Hairy~~ Harry!"
The common word "PITFALL" is hundreds of years old. Originates from about the 14th century. THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH A VIDEO GAME FROM 80S.
Almost looks like the Myst guy falling.
A Myst movie would have potential.
A movie of the first game and then a streaming series that dives into the novels and the sequels.
This exactly.
I'm gonna play it again. Thanks for reminding me. It's been decades since I last beat it so I don't remember any of the answers to the puzzles. I can go into fresh.
Theres a remaster of it now, too :)
Can't wait for the Tetris Movie.
It came out in 2023
But that was about the making of Tetris.
EDIT: Okay, more accurately it was about the distribution of the game and how it became popular.
Wasn't Pitfall set in a jungle? Why does this look like some boreal forest?
......
because pitfall is a normal word and this movie wasnt about the game.
neither was the 2017 , 1962, or 1948 movie
Sorry for assuming people knew what they were talking about when they said this was an adaptation, then 🤷
man was it satisfying to get the treasures in that game. hopping on gators swinging on vines to get a diamond ring.
it was glorious for early 80s.
About a week ago I found out why child me could never navigate the game... The underground levels move you three screens at a time where the above ground ones move you one screen.
Nobody saying it, so I will: this poster is fucking lit 🔥
First : the game you're thinking about is called "Pitfall!" (exclamation mark). There's actually another game called just Pitfall. Because it's a common word and there's a bunch of completely unrelated works (games, movies and music) using it.

Bonus round : look at all the shit Jonathan Blow adapted when he made "The Witness" in 2016:
