The book was amazing and although I enjoyed the movie, I much preferred the book, especially the early exchanges between Parzival and Art3mis, which I felt was more authentic than the movie's sickly sweet Spielberg introduction of character's initial meeting. Just my opinion. The author's other book was also really cool. Called Armada, and had a similar feel to it as RP1.

But yeah... creating a hyperlinked doc would be a bit of work, although you could probably do it automatically for most of the references or just select the text and search google but i get it. i'd love a series, the books story is wayy better than the movie, which although i enjoy, doesn't really make much sense story wise.

@sotvomike 11 месяцев назад

The book didn't have The Shining, so you don't have to worry about that. Also, the author Ernie Cline is a huge fan of the movie Excalibur. The screening I went to had Cline in attendance. Afterwards, when he was signing my book, I asked him if that chant for the force field around the fortress (the Charm of Making from Excalibur) was Spielberg's idea or his. Cline got excited and said it was his and I was the first to ask him about it. He also asked if I also noticed it on the movie marquee in the beginning race and the poster in young Halliday's room at the end. He was really happy to meet another Excalibur fan.

@friday_bug 8 месяцев назад

At the time ( very early 80's) , my future wife, my sister and her husband ( my best friend ) rented a home with 3 bedrooms and living together we made one into a game room. We played Adventure so many times we lost count. That and Centipede along with Joust and Space invaders. My wife passed away in 2009, my sister and her husband (my best friend) have given up gaming a while ago. I'm into it still (now 69) as a first person shooter with Halo, Call to Duty, Tomb Raider and many more with my 5 speaker Gaming Chair, 48 inch Bravia , X-box 360 and an X-Box One. The best I can get to full immersion. But I smiled with the memory of Adventure and the many hours of joy we all had back then.That Easter egg is real had we but known.

@justarandomveryintelligent8934 11 месяцев назад

I think the simplest way i can describe the difference between the book and the film is that in the film Halliday worships nerd culture and the users of the Oasis and specifically the gunters just outfitted themselves in generalized references to nerd stuff and used that knowledge to try to find Halliday's easter egg. In the book Halliday is obsessed with one specific decade: the 80s. So any gunter had to have extensive knowledge of that one decade down to the most niche little known things that happened in nerd culture at that time and you had to know which of these things in that decade factored into Halliday's personal life. In the film you had to know the culture and surface level things about Halliday, in the book you needed extensive biographical knowledge of Halliday's life and you needed extensive historical knowledge of the 80s. Don't worry the book doesnt make it too dense lol

And of course the Atari 2600 games shown in the movie were all real, including Adventure and the Easter egg. They may look really primitive now, but at the time they were mind-blowing, especially considering that a year or two before, video games effectively didn't exist and the only thing you could do with a TV was watch it. The Atari 2600 paved the way for what the video game industry would become.

@@riveraharper8166 I agree, however it's still not any of the classic versions, I was disappointed because most every other reference was an exact match to the original OK, Serenity had an updated appearance in the form of more lights and more greeblies, but otherwise looked the same. I mean, the Gundam, the ships in H's shop, the Iron Giant, the BG Blaster, etc, all were perfect replicas of the originals.

There are a lot of references to Steven Spielberg projects. He was also good friends with Stanley Kubrick, who directed The Shining. The whole sequence was a dedication to his friend.

The blood usually gets off on the second floor."

@@RabidTribble, it's hard to understand why you even like the movie if you read the book. 90% was thrown out, some things make no sense. Surely the budget of 175 million was a bit tight and the inexperienced director Steven Spielberg didn't help and the fact that the guy who helped the script was only the guy who wrote the book had no idea of why the book was so good. Actually it's harder to make to movie so bad with all these factors than making it good.

@RabidTribble 11 месяцев назад

@@DaveMcIroy The book and the movie are very different products with different audiences, so I was able to separate and enjoy them for what they were. Hollywood RARELY moves from books to film in a way that satisfies fans, but I thought the movie was able to stand on its own.

@DanielS2001 11 месяцев назад

22:00 - "Out of all the movies that we had to go into, WHY The Shining?!" I'm about to give you the answer. As pointed out, the book and the film are drastically different from one another. In the book, the second challenge involved Blade Runner as the film (and it served as the entry point into the second gate challenge). However, Warner Brothers had already been working on the sequel to Blade Runner (Blade Runner 2049) around that time, so the film rights for the original couldn't be used. So, Ernest Cline (the author of the book) pitched some alternatives to Steven Spielberg. When he pitched The Shining, Spielberg agreed on it. Why? Because Stanley Kubrick was a friend of his and he had a good friendship with him and his family (originally, Kubrick and Spielberg were going to work on the film A.I.: Artificial Intelligence together, but Kubrick passed after finishing up editing on his film Eyes Wide Shut). Not only were they good friends, Spielberg was a fan of Kubrick's wprl and met him for the first time on the soundstages for The Shining (Spielberg was touring the studio Kubrick was filming at, as he was going to be filming Raiders of the Lost Ark at the same studio as soon as The Shining wrapped production). There's even a bit of a personalized Easter Egg in the film in regards to this moment: The High Five entered The Shining Challenge through The Colorado Room (the room where Jack is seem working on his novel, as well as the scene where Wendy finds the "All Work and No Play Makes Jack a Dull Boy" pages). Spielberg and Kubrick met for the first time in the Colorado Room set. The entire Shining Challenge was as much a personal Easter Egg to his friend as it was something for the characters to go through.

Seeing Halliday at the end makes me think that if he was such a big brained, sci-fi fan then he may have found a way to cheat death by downloading/copying his brain patterns to the system.

It also was a bittersweet moment because he accomplished what he wanted: a free world with unlimited possibilities.

@mikgus 11 месяцев назад

it would have been discovered in the first or second race. Feels like that part was written by someone that has never played a computer game. It is completely different in the book

@JohnSmith-kf8mv 11 месяцев назад

I'm reminded of the Mike Tyson Easter egg / cheat thing which went undiscovered for, I think, decades - the bearded dude in the crowd nodding = you should punch. So I wish the way to win involved turning at random points during the race which were "given away" each time by something happening in the crowd.

@calebwilliams7659 11 месяцев назад

@AddieCounts So happy you picked this movie because I love it. A lot of it has to do with old video games from the 80's and yeah I'm old enough to remember the big Easter Egg.

@patrickcromwell7554 11 месяцев назад

Seeing as how someone can literally experience life in a digital world, i'd guess that Halliday was a "copy" of his brain pattern and placed into the creation he loved. Not to rule or control, but just to be among his creation and see how much people love being there.

I used to play Adventure a lot back in the day (it was one of about a dozen games I owned for my Atari 2600... they were expensive back then). After a while, just winning was kind of boring, so I came up with my own win critera: get every single item except for the bat and the chalice inside of the easter egg room (where the creator's name is), then release the bat holding the chalice so it would fly into the door of the castle and win the game. So I saw the solution coming before the characters in the movie did, which is a good thing, it means the logic of the movie world is solid. :) So many little touches in this movie that I loved. I think one of my favorites (because it's so old/obscure) is the line art drawing of the demon face from the original S1: The Tomb of Horrors that they had painted on the back of their van.

This movie has so many references to movies, games, tv series, it's insane.

@TwilightLink77 11 месяцев назад

Most of the references are from Spielberg’s career even in the movie’s ost

@roystoyscomics1361 11 месяцев назад

This movie is a meta smorgasbord. So many references crammed into one movie. But for starters you have Artemis' sweet ride which is the bike used in the anime Akira. You have the Delorean from Back to The Future, the T-Rex from Jurassic Park and King Kong just for kicks and giggles. Not to mention the Iron Giant. Which is definitely worth a view. 😂 The incantation to activate the Orb of Osuvox is taken from the "1981" movie Excalibur. It was the Spell that Morgana Le Fay used to trap Merlin the Enchanter. The glaive thrown by Artemis is from the classic sci-fi/fantasy film Krull. The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch from the Monty Python Comedy Troupe movie Monty Python and The Holy Grail. 😂 There are 138 meta references and easter eggs in this movie. Have fun cataloguing them all. 😂

The Halliday that Wade was talking to in Oasis was a program using all his memories stored in the Journals to simulate him. Basically Halliday made himself immortal for as long as the building storing his memories existed in Oasis.

@praiodansmagicbox4094 11 месяцев назад

I think the book and the movie should always be seen as a package deal and be compared. A Friend of mine is a teacher and she uses book and movie in school as a teaching device. And actually I would advice to get the audio book. Not something I usually do, I love to read, but Wil Wheaton brings so much to the book the way he reads it!

@magicbrownie1357 11 месяцев назад

For Spielberg, this is a hidden gem.

The spell that was chanted for the orb was from the movie... Excalibur

@AlwaysBolttheBird 9 месяцев назад

The cube can reverse time but it was used. It’s a one time use item

The book Ready Player Two explains Halliday still being in the Oasis

@ciphernine7824 11 месяцев назад

If that tech had existed 30 yrs ago, we'd all be living in the Oasis now.

@SeanTube2099 11 месяцев назад

The book is amazing. I much prefer it to the film, but there are a lot of 80s pop & video game references. Hopefully you enjoy it as much as I did.

@oDv. 11 месяцев назад

Addie that was so much fun, ty for your reaction.

@jefferybaird4845 11 месяцев назад

I always think of how little IOI was offering Wade. A few millions VS. 500 Billion. And at the end that was split 5 ways so 100 Billion each.

@VorpalBunnysRevenge 11 месяцев назад

The strange words the guy spoke is called The Charm of Making. It's from the movie Excalibur. It's good; you should watch it.

@Luciphell 11 месяцев назад

Favorite inclusion in this film is definitely the "Charm Of Making" from Excalibur.

@scottvanhille5688 11 месяцев назад

I enjoyed this film in the theater and Steven did a good job in bringing back the old classic characters as avatars. People like this one for that reason despite its story. Nice reaction.

Coins on the eyes of the dead. According to legend, the coins were a bribe or payment used to ferry the dead into the Underworld. While this might sound strange in modern times, this practice brought peace to ancient people, ensuring their family members made it safely into the afterlife

@JamesASharp 11 месяцев назад

Steven Spielberg's best blockbuster film since The Adventures of TinTin (2011) and War Of The Worlds (2005). Great reaction! 👍🏿

@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy 11 месяцев назад

I'd argue it's his best crowd-pleaser since "Last Crusade" (yes, I even prefer it over "Jurassic Park," which I've always considered a bit overrated).

Ready Player One is a really fun movie but the book is an absolutely incredible worldbuilding and nostalgia experience. Highly recommend the audiobook as it's read by Wil Wheaton :D

@drewo.127 11 месяцев назад

I don’t know if this was intentional by the book or movie, but James Halliday has the same initials as Jim Henson, and while Jim is known for puppetry, he also helped either pioneer new technology or expand existing technology in order to help bring the world of puppetry, filmmaking, and overall creativity to life and then some! I think James Halliday was probably meant to resemble Willy Wonka to an extent, but I feel he mostly resembles (in looks and personality) a cross between Wonka (Gene Wilder version) and Jim Henson. But mostly Henson, in my opinion. And I mean that in the nicest may possible!💖💖💖

One of the things I love about this movie was the nostalgia. Back in the day before consoles came to be I was one of those teens getting yelled at by my parents for spending all my hard earned money one quarter at a time in the arcade. Galaga, pacman, joust, spy hunter and so many more.
