THATS A LOTTA VIDYA, ANIME AND MOVIE CAMEOS GOD DAYUM
I can see why this was greenlit. Look at all that product placement.
I only recognized the DeLorean, Tracer, King Kong, and Iron Giant.
Good god what a fucking trainwreck lmao.

Gundam gets some prominence near the end
epic nerd movie
Was that trace ?
Okay how many dicks did they have to suck to get mother fucking Mario involved?
Not even Disney could get him for Wreck it Ralph
Halliday's acting is absolute dogshit, zero tension or excitement in his words.
Rest of the film looks... like a film I guess.
Nope, still doesn't look like it'll be any good.
I mean, what I've read about the book seems also true about the movie version, except instead of jerking off the 80s, this one also jerks off the 2000s as well.

iirc Disney didn't want him.
This just looks like "I KNOW WHAT THAT IS!!!": The Movie
My hands are going to be raw from all the clapping I'm going to be doing when I see something I recognize. I might even have to throw a few "WOO!"s in there so my palms can last
Please don't suck, please don't suck...
That's the fastest I've ever gone from "this looks fucking awesome" to "this looks fucking stupid".
Looking at it again, all the references here seem pretty surface level "nerd" stuff. The only thing I wasn't expecting was Bigfoot showing up.

This movie would be a lot more amusing if they went in a more pessimistic direction with the Oasis world, like imagine if it was just literally the worst of VR Chat and Second Life combined and you have gangs of man-voiced lolis patrolling their vandalized turf on the lookout for vampire biker gangs and sonic OCs. Antagonists are a horde of imageboard people like /pol/ working together to find the easter egg and they drive around with Wolfenstein-tier future nazi gear. This is how it will likely happen when virtual reality reaches Snowcrash levels of real, but that probably won't be marketable enough.

The book has D&D, Wargames, Pac-Man and Rush, so it's not like the book got particularly deep or obscure either.
Very Cool
I'm pretty sure I saw Tracer from Overwatch in the trailer
Blizzard must have paid lots of good cash for that reference/cameo
Im getting this weird tingling sense that its going to either suck really bad or just end up being bland and very forgettable
I can't wait for screenshots of 2 pixel high images claiming to be characters.
It looks like fun and probably the only virtual world movie worth a grain of salt.
But I have the niggling feeling that it'll just be reference after reference fan servicing (which is okay to an extent b/c its a virtual world so why not, but I just hope it doesn't drown out the rest of the creativity that could arise from it).

Chun-Li was next to Tracer.

From what I understand, and I've never read the book so don't take my word on it, this is all second-hand interpretation...
But that's literally all the book is: a bunch of fellating the author's favorite games & movies from when he was growing up, with a little sprinkling of surface-level generic plot to tie things together.
From what I can gather, this is literally a "Fan Service: The Movie" being adapted from "Fan Service: The Book"
I have absolutely zero expectations for this film to be anything other than utterly vapid. And for me, personally, I don't think it looks fun at all. Big pass from me. I just hope my friends won't ask me to see it - I likely won't turn them down, but I can't see myself having much fun watching this.

you're both wrong, they got mario licensed from nintendo but they couldnt figure out how to put him into the movie so they cut the scenes they were going to put him in. he will most likely be in WIR2
I'm gonna be honest, this looks like a movie my younger self would've probably loved.

I feel like this is just trash meant to trigger your nostalgia
