I'll always regard Tetris a russian-themed game.

If we ever get a Tetris movie (and I'm not talking about the upcoming biographical film, like a fictional adaption of it),  Ithink it should take place in Russia.

Yes, me too, that's why my favorite version is Tengen Tetris (NES) / Atari Tetris (Arcade),
all game themes are from Russian folk songs.

The left one, not the right one .....

SEGA’s data analytics for mobile gaming now faster than Sonic



Quote
According to Masaki Takeuchi, Section Manager of Business & Data Analysis Section, Business Planning Department, Game Contents & Service Business Division at SEGA, mobile gaming analysts are now free from the routine work of preparing data reports and enable them to spend more time solving complex analytical challenges.
SEGA introduced Qlik’s solutions, including Qlik Sense, to bring in multiple data sources and automate the creation of routine reports.
With Qlik, analysts can independently collect, process, and analyze the required data. They are also able to incorporate data from external sources without writing complex algorithms.

If I ever direct/produce a blown-budget Hollywood movie around Tetris, I'd make it about an alien invasion during the Cold War where aliens use tetronimo-shaped meteors to attack the Russians, all the while being a clever metaphor for the Berlin Wall.

Then again, perhaps best to just watch this music video.

Alien Invasion? That sounded like PIXELS ... but in Russia.

Not with pixels though, with chiseled asteroids. Though making Tetris an allegory to the Berlin Wall would be just as creative.

Yes, wall and blocks do make a good chemistry.
Especially if this is no ordinary "wall".
It could teach history too since probably young people nowadays didn't know about the fall of Berlin Wall history.

To be honest I barely know much about it myself other than it divided people.

But given Tetris is a Russian puzzle game about stacking blocks and Berlin is a country in Russia it would make sense to put these together.
