It’s easy to get so caught up the addictive gameplay of Angry Birds that you forget the game has a plot. Hardcore Birds fans love all the random extras and YouTube videos following the war with the pigs, though, and now there’s a new one that might be the coolest yet.
In this live-action video, the Angry Birds attempt to negotiate a peace treaty with their enemies, the evil pigs, but it doesn’t really go as planned. The negotiations break down with the birds and pigs each blaming one another and shouting some NSFW expletives, and then everything seems to settle down again … until the surprise ending. Angry Birds superfans will love it.
This isn’t an official promotional video from Rovio, though. It’s a skit on an Israeli comedy show, Eretz Nehederet. That just goes to show how huge Angry Birds has become, not only as a game, but as a global cultural phenomenon. We’ll see how people feel about the birds vs. pigs conflict when they see it from the pigs’ perspective in the upcoming Angry Birds sequel, though!
