It takes real talent to make something shittier than that book

Fuck off I spent it on Overwatch-killer Battleborne

>Wouldn't it be badass if Duke Nukem was in your movie haha
fixed it for you
>>384824564
Fuck
>>384822436
What movie?
>>384822436
And what exactly is wrong in that? Dude Kickem is cool.
>>384822436
The fuck is this? I see a Halo AR.

Ready Player One. Based on a book written for YA audience so expect PG-13 ocassional curse word, funny "punch punch bang bang bang bang bloooooo bloooooo o no somone dead" action.
>>384824769
Trailer came out for "Ready Player One"
Was that Freddy Krueger and Deadpool in there too?
This movie looks way too meta. Was the book like that?
>>384824769
I'm guessing "Ready Player One".
>>384824974
and the Iron Giant you cunt.
Yeah the book was like that. Books can usually get away with title drops without it being weird.

Yes, but all I remember was D&D and Ultraman.

Fuck off normalfag, Spielberg is by far the most overrated director in Film

Good, anime can turn gold into shit with its sole presence.

Now I really know you're a tard.
How about you stop inhaling your own farts and understand that every movie doesn't have to be quirky and 5 hours long.
>>384825494
Take it easy, they're probably so young that their brain has already turned to shit from post-2000 films

>The Iron Giant
>Not anime
shiggy diggy
easter egg : the movie.
I hope we see a metal gear at one moment.
>>384825778
This movie will have
L i t t e r a l l y
every
pop culture reference
you can imagine.
You want it?
You got it.
Ready. Player. One.
Book would have been pretty cool if it were written by somebody who could show some restraint
They're actually making a movie based on that shitty book? What the hell?
>>384825313
There's a straight up Evangelion vs a castle scene you nigger
>>384825067
>and the Iron Giant you cunt.
>Yeah the book was like that. Books can usually get away with title drops without it being weird.
Yeah but movies usually cannot do that. You don't usually see one studio using another studio's intellectual property.
>>384824564
I don't get it
>>384824974
the book is basically meme-ing "that popular videogame" like they do in TV shows
>I got the high score in World of Warcraft!
>>384826620
This reminds me of Ubisoft's Iconicâ„¢
>>384825313
>steal plot from anime
>what if the secret was in this MMORPG I play all day
>make a film about your book
>pretend anime isn't a thing
>>384826620
That's pretty negative butt
>>384826620
I haven't heard that phrase in so long. It's kinda crazy now that I think about it because nothing's really wrong with it, but it's so awkward being out of touch with the modern slang. I get what people are saying most of the time, but "dead ass" will never be something I can say without feeling wrong
>>384827474
it's one of those thing, where if you say it repeatedly your brain stops understanding the meaning
>>384822436
Duke Nukem shooting at a Strogg holding a Halo assault rifle. Cool.
What is the book even about?
>>384825313

It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World with videogame easter eggs
>>384828330
Fat guy plays Second Life on an Oculus Rift and it turns out Banjo Kazooie's Stop 'n' Swap is in it so he has to race in Trackmania and shit to get the eggs.

Did you miss the Akira bike?
Dumb anime poster

YA book (so book for kids in puberty).
A rich cool guy (think Steve Jobs mixed with the guy from Ex Machina) has a super-popular MMO/Second Life thing, and if you find the solve the super sceret puzzle thing you'll find the golden ticket and the rich guy will give you his whole company.
A nerdy gamer boy is the main character, and he can solve all the puzzles because of his super awesome knowledge of old nerdy shit, but there's also an evil corporates that want to own the company also.
there's probably a hot girl who falls in love with the nerdy boy too
The guy also wrote a book where "super nerd's super skills at space invaders become relevant when actual aliens need his help with an invasion" (literally the Last starfighter)
>detective work has been replaced by races and action scenes
>Douk

It's literally Wan Piss in Sword Art Online's setting.
this is a western isekai
>yfw Artemis isn't even thicc

Oh yeah? Where are my cute lolis and titty Liches then.
>>384829756
>super nerd's super skills at space invaders become relevant when actual aliens need his help with an invasion
I remember reading a book like that, but instead of the invasion being real he gets sucked into the game and finds out that there player character is the actual invader and helps the aliens defend against the enemy shipI also remember that at the end of the book he gets out of the game and somehow teleports onto some random girl's bed while she's asleep and it just ends with that
>>384831013
I think that's a different one

>>384822436
>Duke Nukem
This movie's going to be casual af unless it has this bad boy in there
>>384831013
So it's The Last Starfighter? THATS LITERALLY THE FUCKING PLOT OF THE LAST STARFIGHTER
>>384832802
it's just a passing reference
I doubt he's going to be properly visible, or have speaking lines
>>384832886
yeah but instead of it being a test he just gets sucked into the video game for some reason, I think he gets an alien waifu, too
>>384824923
Can't ask a question without the pretentious plebs come out of the woodwork needing to stroke their shitty taste penis
>>384824923
It's full of 80s references, so I'm not even sure it's for YA.
>>384824974
The book is so full of references, that getting this adapted in it's full spectrum would make Lionsgate adapting Marvel vs DC as a piece of legal cake.
>>384825313
There are gundams, Shinji's EVA, and fucking Leopardon, off the top of my head.
>>384829756
>there's probably a hot girl who falls in love with the nerdy boy too
The hot girl is only hot in the virtual world, she's actually chubby-to-fatty in the book's RL.
>>384822436
This movie looks so stupid.
>>384824974
Deathstroke.
>>384835460
The book was pretty stupid too, basically just tons of references but it was structured like an 80s action movie so it was fun.
Doubt we'll get Ultraman or Evangelions though.
