Project: RPO - What?
Ready Player One by Ernest Cline is a favourite amongst a few of us here (read the reviews here if you don't believe us! Steve's, Nate's, Jayson's, David's) and we often chat about the sheer amount of pop culture contained within its pages. There is some corking games, arcade machines and consoles mentioned heavily. Books and authors are copious. Television is memorable. However when it comes to film there are loads and loads. In fact just so you can see how many the entire list is at the bottom of this post. Ready Player One is itself going to be a film and comes out in March 2018. So here's our idea, our project, nay our calling! We are going to review all of the films mentioned in the book, before the release of Ready Player One the movie. Yes, every single titled film below will get an article of its own.
So... Ready Player One?
