Oscar winning filmmaker and budding game designer Steven Spielberg is! The idea man behind Boom Blox and the newly released sequel Boom Blox Bash Party shows what a lifetime of directing does to one's extremities.

Normally a job reserved for Japanese idols, voice actors and bikini models, EA has tapped Mr. Spielberg to hold aloft his latest Wii creation, showing expert product placement with a hint of a smile that shows just how pleasing a game of Boom Blox Bash Party can be.

Kudos go out to Spielberg's stylist, who downplays the Steven with a tasteful, homogeneously brown blend of merino wool, suede and corduroy, so as not to distract from the zany Boom Blox Bash Party box art.

Full-on Spielberg modeling after the break!
