The game's Battle Of Endor expansion allowed you to murder many beloved Star Wars characters (plus the Ewoks), and Han's death scene features the same style of execution, the same lightsaber color, and even the same disturbingly orgasmic death face as in The Force Awakens. You can see the full scene here, but be advised about watching more from that game, because if this trend continues, you may get spoiled on how Leia gets killed in a double lightsaber duel.

Now let's look at Han's killer, Kylo Ren -- who, in a plot twist, turns out to be his emo son Ben.

That's what you get for naming your kid after some crazy old guy you barely knew.

Kylo wears an outfit suspiciously similar to the one worn by another character from a Star Wars video game: Darth Revan from the Knights Of The Old Republic series. As with Kylo, Revan's identity is revealed in a plot twist -- he's actually the player.

Kylo started out as a Jedi apprentice before turning over to the Dark Side, but he still feels conflicted about it. The same goes for Revan, whose final Dark/Light affiliation depends on how much of a dick the player chooses to be in the game. Even Kylo's Starkiller Base, which drains energy out of a star in order to function, is reminiscent of Revan's Star Forge, which works the same way. Shame on you for thinking they were just ripping off the Death Star.

LucasArts
In fairness, Knights Of The Old Republic was also ripping off the Death Star, because it seems that's the only idea anyone has in the Star Wars universe.

Taking on multiple dudes at the same time in a sort of rhythmic dance that bounces from one opponent to the next in a circle, shattering faces at every stop:

The Snyder version looks more like a video game.

Hell, someone put the game's HUD over the scene and it fits perfectly. There's even a moment when Batman renders the thugs' guns useless with some sort of gizmo -- just like the disruptor gadget from the games. The fighting styles are also very similar and much more brutal than what we're accustomed to, making the blink-and-you'll-miss-'em fight scenes of the Christopher Nolan Dark Knight movies look like they're full of BIFFs and POWs in stylized word balloons.

Ironically, the one thing Snyder didn't copy from the Arkham series is the slo-mo -- which the developers say they copied from Snyder's 300 in the first place. It's good to see that creative thievery enjoys a proud Batman tradition of being a two-way street.

Alfonso Cuaron is the acclaimed, Academy-Award-winning director behind films like Gravity, Children Of Men, and The Good Harry Potter Movie. According to Cuaron, the last video game he played was Space Invaders -- which might be a ruse to prevent us from discovering how much he's borrowed from games in his career. For starters:

Universal Pictures, Valve Corporation
Humanity may be doomed in 2027, but at least we'll have the newly-released Half-Life 3 to cheer us up.

Yes, we know Children Of Men is based on a book from 1990 and Half-Life 2 came out in 2004. However, it's entirely possible that Cuaron noticed both stories are set in dystopic near-futures wherein everyone is infertile and decided to borrow some of the game's look and feel. From Half Life's introspective train ride ...

Universal Pictures, Valve Corporation
Us when the phone battery dies.

... to the desolate but militarized train stations where dickish soldiers push people around ...

Universal Pictures, Valve Corporation
What these oppressive states save on food, they spend on wire fences.

...to the eerily abandoned children's playgrounds.

Universal Pictures, Valve Corporation
The swing industry has seen better days.

Even though the movie isn't in first-person perspective like the game, the camera is constantly showing us the point of view of the main character in this chaotic world. Also, they both end on a massive insurrection against the totalitarian government. There's even a moment in the movie's long, climactic firefight in which the camera gets splattered with blood, like in a first-person shooter. All that's missing is one of the soldiers stopping to teabag a dead body while yelling something racist.

Universal Pictures
Ironically, FPS games would be much more pleasant in this future, since 14-year-olds don't exist.

Speaking of shooters, when Call Of Duty: Ghosts came out in 2013, many compared it to Cuaron's Gravity (from earlier in the same year) because both feature scenes in which a space station blows up and the astronauts are left drifting in space. What everyone missed was that Call Of Duty did this years before Cuaron -- in 2009's Modern Warfare 2, there's a short but strikingly similar scene where the same freaking thing happens:

Warner Bros. Pictures
Gravity (2013), winner of seven Oscars.

Activision
Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009), winner of two Golden Joysticks.

Cuaron even adopted a first-person perspective for the corresponding shots in Gravity. It looks like the closer Cuaron's movies get to video games, the more successful they are, so let's hope the producers of the upcoming Tetris trilogy are reading this.

And of course, it wouldn't be not-Uncharted without ridiculous-looking pipe-climbing:

Video games: letting us do wacky shit with pipes since 1983.

Meanwhile, only a month after Watch Dogs was released to the underwhelment of gamers everywhere, Bollywood happened to crank out the first Indian super soldier spy hacker movie: 18.11 -- A Code Of Secrecy.

Yash Raj Films, Ubisoft
They even copied the "this has a stupid name" aspect.

To be fair, the trailer for this no-budget extravaganza suggests the story has no relation whatsoever to Watch Dog's plot, and the music is completely different (because the music was in fact stolen from Halo). But the most bizarre Indian quasi-adaptation yet is Super Hero Shehanshah, which looks like what happens when you try to play Assassin's Creed at a Renaissance Faire.

Yash Raj Films, Ubisoft
Nothing screams "exciting film" like a hero who clearly brought his costume from home.

Whereas most of the action in Assassin's Creed takes place in a distant past, this version takes place entirely in modern times. Why would a top-level assassin dress like a Dungeons & Dragons character? Well, there are many convenient reasons, such as hiding in museums ...

In response, BioWare, Mass Effect's creators, joked on Twitter that they were waiting for their agents of SHIELD badges. One staff member indicated that he'd settle for a copy of this familiar-looking rap album, featuring The Jacka and DuBBle OO standing in front of one of Mass Effect's futuristic cityscapes.

Space Age Entertainment, BioWare
Judging by the album's seven current ratings on iTunes, they would be more than happy to give copies away.

Some claimed it was ironic for BioWare to complain about having their art stolen when they occasionally use free stock photos in their games, because the internet doesn't know what the words "free stock photos" mean. No, real irony is Fox News doing a segment on immigration ...

Fox News, Take-Two Interactive
Guess what their stance on it is.

... using a logo that was clearly ripped off from BioShock Infinite, a game set in a floating city populated by racist douchebags who hate immigrants. It's impossible to miss -- the villains even use talking points and propaganda which obviously satirizes Tea-Party-style rhetoric. Like this poster:

Take-Two Interactive
Looks like Jon McNaughton exists in all parallel realities.

Because the Universe never stops being hilarious, a Tea Party group with almost 200,000 members shared that image on Facebook before finding out it was from a video game that was highly critical of their ideology and deleted it.

But oblivious lunatics aren't the only ones ripping off the BioShock franchise ...

Snowpiercer's main character has to go from carriage to carriage, bypassing increasingly difficult obstacles until he can confront the final "boss" of the film. At some point in both the movie and the game, the characters find themselves in classrooms (or "educational facilities" in BioShock), whose disturbingly colorful aesthetics clash with the worlds' predominant grayness.

V For Vendetta is big with kids during the new ice age.

At this point in the movie, a seemingly innocent cart is pushed inside the room, only for someone to pull a big gun out of it, which is a cool idea ...

... which was even cooler when the game did it.

Bethedsa Game Studios
Because it's a bigger gun.

And speaking of cute child stuff, in both Snowpiercer and BioShock, innocent children are a valuable resource for the leaders, because they're used for creepy activities adults cannot perform -- running the train's engine and harvesting a substance from sea slugs, respectively.

CJ E&M Film Division, Bethedsa Game Studios
"We could do it, but we wouldn't look half as cute, so what's the point?"

In the game, that substance is abused by the upper class, leaving them insane and deformed, with an entire level dealing with a section of the city populated by socialites who sit around doing tons of drugs and wearing freaky masks. Snowpiercer has a similar section of the train populated by costumed ravers rolling their faces off.

CJ E&M Film Division, Bethedsa Game Studios
Unless you're looking to lose weight, it's quite effective.

But perhaps the biggest similarity is that both Bioshock and Snowpiercer end with a plot twist in which the main character finds out he had been manipulated by his mentor to carry out an assassination on the utopia's creator ... a scheme the creator knew about and accepted in both cases. But, you know, lots of movies end like that, we're sure.

CJ E&M Film Division, Bethedsa Game Studios
Lots of movies have steampunk underwater tunnels, too.

What's The Best Fictional School To Attend? In the muggle world, we're not given the opportunity for a magical hat to tell us which school we should go to. Usually, we have to go to the high school closest to where we live, or whatever college accepts our SAT scores and personal essay. This month, our goal is to determine what would be the best fictional school to go to. Join Jack, Daniel, and the rest of the Cracked staff, along with comedians Brandie Posey and Steven Wilber, as they figure out if it's a realistic school like Degrassi or West Beverly High, or an institution from a fantasy world like Hogwarts with its ghosts and dementors, or Bayside High, haunted by a monster known only to humans as Screech.
