Malcor Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Hello everyone. I found some interesting pieces yesterday and I'm hoping to get some information. I found 2 film reels. They containing the 1982 theatrical commercials from Atari and Mattel. The Atari ad is known as The Fly and features Yars Revenge and has a bumper at the end announcing ET the video game. The other is for the Intellivision and has digitized news casters talking about the Intellivision games. Both are in fantastic condition. What kind of value am I looking at with these?

+save2600 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Haven't you heard? Appraisals are no longer free here at AA. Please include $100 with the films and send to me for a prompt evaluation and appraisal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcor Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 Hahaha I'm sure that is a totally legitimate offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Yeah, just kidding - welcome to AtariAge! ...looks like The Fly exists in decent form over on YouTube at least: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YWcHCYhcObo Not sure about the Intellivision one, but was thinking if there was anything rare or unheard of, would be worth more and preserving them would be more of a priority.

TheVgaTv Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Quick search on Ebay turned this up. Not sure if exact same thing but should give you a rough idea http://www.ebay.com/itm/35mm-ATARI-video-Games-WITH-ET-GAME-TAG-/191853395929?hash=item2cab5a7fd9:g:QZ0AAOSwlfxXGXjL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMaddog Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Here's another link for the Intellivision ad, one amongst a couple pulled up in a search. Watch this while you can while it's still up... https://youtu.be/fJs6QYe-BWM It really was impressive at the time, looked like they used rotoscope animation.

towmater Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Well there you go, the Atari film was worth about $65 to someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcor Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 I saw that listing but the seller didn't state what condition or ad it was. Plus his reel looks like it's about half the length or less than mine. I think it's just the ending Atari logo and animation with the ET bumper.
