🐱 1Up Trailer Gives First Look at Ruby Rose’s New Video Game Comedy - Gamergate the movie has arrived and somehow worse than expected

CatParty

The upcoming film 1Up explores sexism within the world of competitive gaming and finds Ruby Rose playing the coach of a college esports team.
The trailer for 1Up is offering a first look at Ruby Rose's latest film, which centers around the world of competitive gaming. Directed by Kyle Newman, whose previous work includes Fanboys and Barely Lethal, the upcoming comedy follows Vivian, an esports gamer who, after receiving a college scholarship to play for Barrett University, faces sexism within the school's male-dominated squad and ends up forming her own all-girls team to compete at nationals. In addition to Rose, who stars as Vivian's coach, Parker, the film features Hubie Halloween's Paris Berelc, Taylor Zakhar Perez, and Hari Nef. 1Up, produced by Lionsgate and Buzzfeed Studios, is set to premiere on Amazon Prime on July 15, 2022.

The first trailer for 1Up was recently released by Lionsgate Movies and introduces audiences to Berelc's nationally-ranked player Vivian, as well as the dynamic between her and Dustin, the captain of Barrett's team. It also reveals a lot about Parker and previews some of her seemingly unconventional coaching tactics. Check out the full trailer for 1Up below:


Ruby Rose is perhaps best known for her roles in popular projects such as Orange Is the New Blackand Pitch Perfect 3. Most recently, she starred as Kate Kane on the CW's Batwoman before exiting after one season and later issuing complaints against Warner Bros. With a surrounding cast full of rising talent, 1Up certainly has all of the makings of a hit, and followers of Rose can check it out when it hits Amazon Prime next month.
 
Cute, they actually think girls are anywhere near men in esports.

If you're interested in the topic of women in games, how about these 2 documentaries.


I expect that when we do get a popular league of females in e-sports it’s going to be a league of e-thots and titty streamers.

Way to play up the stereotype this movie's supposedly fighting against. Banjo Kazooie was a game for 5 year olds, and not exclusively 5 year old boys either, Kazooie is a girl!

Is this film an intentional satire? Either way, it's about 10 years late, open up any game of Valorant or Overwatch. 25% of Valorant's players are asian women.
Brandon Sanderson had a much better take on this. He pointed out how video games had become more mainstream across the decades.

First video games were something kids played, then it became something that nerds played, then it became something guys played, and now it has become something young people play. In a decade or two it will just become something people do, like watching movies or reading.
 
Honestly never met anyone who did anything other than this
When I was a kid I played the sims "legit" enough by trying to have a family of fucked up looking replicas of characters from media. it wentwell till one of them somehow managed to set the house on fire while using a stove despite having high cooking stats, and then fucking burnt the house down despite having phones and fire extinguishers and alarms. They just all stood there screaming going "WOOLWOOLWOLOWLO!!" and proceeded to die even when i tried to get them to move to safety. It fucking scarred me for a while . Sim AI is literally too retarded to serve anything other than the glory of death.

It gets even better when you realize it's an unedited youtube reupload of the banjo kazooie smash trailer with the uploader's watermark in the right corner. Makes you wonder if they got permission for that.
EDIT: Wait or is the watermark added in in the movie... STILL IT'S FUCKING SMASH BROS BANJO'S TRAILER UNEDITED AND BADLY GREENSCREENED ONTO THE SCREEN.

Well, I just watched the trailer and I can say is that at least it's a comedy. Sure it's bad but it could had been way worse.
Yeah, it reminds me of those older 'grrrl power' comedies. It's cringy, but it's clearly made for awkward teenage girls. Pretty harmless to be honest.

How this is related to Gamergate is beyond me.
 
So Team Siren the movie.

Actually the reason why that team fell apart was due to their constant infighting, I'm suppose to believe this team in this movie gets along well? Wow this is science fiction.

There already was a TV series in Taiwan about a woman who was good enough to join the mens gaming team. It ended up being more about the guys wanting to be her boyfriend than the competitiveness aspect.
