Admittedly, parties during San Diego Comic-Con are not my personal thing — usually because I a) don’t have the time (early mornings and all that), b) miss out on invites, and c) am so tired after a full day that my bed calls seductively. All that changed this year with Geek Gatsby’s Ready Player One-themed event, […]

I have been absolutely dreading writing review-esque pieces about WB’s Ready Player One film. I don’t want to be angry, I don’t want to nitpick with every little “WELL, IN THE BOOK” statement that passes my lips when I talk about the movie (but a lot of this chat here will include those things), and I […]

I love Ernie Cline’s book “Ready Player One”, first and foremost you should know that before reading further.  It meant something special to me the first day I read (and finished, because I seriously couldn’t put the damn thing down) it, and it’s more so now I think.  If you didn’t appriciate the novel for what […]

The sleeping Iron Giant of WB has really woken up over the last week, as all the new Ready Player One images, posters, and trailers will attest.  While yes, this maybe isn’t a completely ‘new’ trailer, there most definately are new images and sequences in it that we haven’t seen yet. Built mostly as a collection […]

Ready Player One really waited ’til the last minute to start to drum up more public… something… ahead of the Warner Bros. film being released next month. Aside from some pretty good trailers, the sheer lack of story-appropriate viral marketing is largely disappointing. Why no release of Anorak’s Invitation? Why no true “join the Oology […]

Yes yes, I know, I’ve been talking a lot about Ready Player One and the film isn’t even OUT yet.  Part of this is because the book, “Ready Player One” by Ernie Cline, had such a strong impact when I read it. Part of the excitement anytime an existing property gets made into a movie is […]

We’re getting ever closer to the release of Ready Player One next month, and that means we’re finally starting to see some merchandise.  Specifically- the AMAZING Funko Pop Vinyl collection being released for the film. Seriously, this is a fabulous set of figures INCLUDING THE KEYS that make such an important appearance in the source material […]

It seems like Warner Bros. is FINALLY getting really into their marketing drops of Ready Player One. Not surprising with the film opening next month, and about damn time. Yesterday, we got five posters of the High Five, and before that — the new poster. This morning, the official RP1 Twitter account posted a brand-new (and final) trailer, […]

Shocking, we know, but Ready Player One is a highly anticipated film release around here, and we’re gettin more excited as each new Warner Bros. thing gets posted. Last week, we not only got a brand new RP1 film poster, but it also had the first look at three of the super important characters/personalities. Today, Warner Bros. […]

This morning fans of Ready Player One were treated to a brand-new trailer for the upcoming live-action adaptation by Steven Spielberg of Ernest Cline’s novel for Warner Bros. The trailer is brilliant, calming some of my more troubling fears that the changes from book-to-screen were going to be too much, take too much away from the magic […]
