    • Trivia
      In an interview, Steven Spielberg said this was the third most difficult movie he has made in his career, behind Jaws (1975) and Saving Private Ryan (1998).
    • Goofs
      Parzival doesn't count to 3 before throwing the Holy Hand Grenade, as depicted in Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975). In that film, King Arthur counts "One, two, five," is corrected, and shouts "Three!" before throwing the grenade. However, these instructions are never specified in the Oasis so there is no particular reason to expect them to match the Monty Python version.

    Quite worth watching...
    I had very little expectations for this movie, especially since the ones I know who watched it said that it wasn't all that spectacular. Well, I got the chance to sit down and watch "Ready Player One", had the time to spare, so why not?

    I must say that I was surprised with the result of this movie, because it was actually rather entertaining. Sure, it had a predictable and generic storyline, but it was still entertaining enough for what it was.

    What really blew me away was the special effects and CGI. This was definitely spectacular, and there were so many details. I love the overwhelming amount of familiar characters that there were to be seen throughout the entire movie. There were so many pop culture characters and obscure characters that only true nerds of movies, gaming, comics, etc. would recognize. It was especially awesome to see Jason Voorhees and Spawn make appearances as avatars in the movie as well.

    There was a good flow to the movie and it kept its upbeat pace all the way to the very end, and that made for some entertaining stuff.

    I will say that the movie is worth watching again, not for the story or the special effects, but for picking out familiar characters used as Oasis avatars in the movie, that would be quite a task.

    All in all, "Ready Player One" is definitely worth taking the time to sit down and watch. And it had a lovely morale as well, and that being that people need to live their lives in the real life and not in an online illusion of a world.

    • Since 101 is five in binary, why are they called sixers?
