'Anchorman' Stays Classy in 8-Bit Remake

Ron Burgundy is still in a glass case of emotion, but now that case is made in 8-bit.

In a new video, YouTuber CineFix gives Anchorman the old-school gaming treatment, which perfectly matches the cult film's retro world.

It manages to recap the film's entire plot in only three minutes, so fans can easily catch up on all of Burgundy's antics before Anchorman 2 debuts this December.

And don't forget: You can "stay classy" in 8-bit, too.

   We're big fans of this stop motion, gaming-themed epic.
