Continuity mistake: During the climax, when the old-fashioned Atari-controller is lowered down from the UFO, watch closely. In the first two shots, it's swinging back and forth rather quickly and dramatically, however, immediately from the third shot on, it's suddenly barely swinging. It's too instantaneous between edits to be the result of it naturally losing momentum.

The Angry Video Game Nerd: Cooper. If you want to be a nerd like me, you gotta make some unique sacrifices. No physical fitness, no social popularity and most important, no girls.
Trivia: Directors Kevin Finn and James Rolfe grew up watching cheesy B-movies, and decided to model this film after the low-budget nature of such productions. Hence, they included frequent convoluted plot-twists and purposely-bad special effects. (Such as low-quality miniature models.) However, while most audiences understood that the low-quality of the effects were part of the "joke" of the film, some audiences failed to realize this, and the film received some initial backlash online from people complaining about the effects, not realizing it was intended to look cheap and silly.
