I love how this film completely glosses over the fact culture seems to have died since there are no references to any media beyond the mid-2010s. Or the fact that if everyone spends all their time in a VR game that would 100% lead to complete societal degradation
The book explains that 1980s culture is more dominant because that is what Halliday, the creator of the Oasis was obsessed with, since that was when he was a kid. So people took an interest in the older decades because they thought it would help them win or figure out clues. Plus since everyone is obsessed with the Oasis not much "new" culture is being created especially because of overpopulation, famine, etc.
@@TheIllusiveMan11 I mean did you see where the main characters lives, the homes are literally stack shipping creates on top of one another to to make a sudo mega buildings. The world they live in is a bleak dystiopia that the only escape from reality is in a vr game, so it no wonder people spend more time in the game then face reality
@@wlliamson53 i always wondered how that worked with the three keys if someone lost everything when they died what's to stop everyone ganging up to kill whoever has the key? if that happened i doubt anyone would last long enough to get two keys let alone three of them my own explanation is the keys are like nft's & are bound to whoever collects them
Like everything becomes liquidated to a coin count, so artifact and weapons would probably respawn where you would find them or have to be bought from the store
Just make alt accounts or have a friend act like a bank. Give all items to the alt and keep grinding. Gamers would always find a way to keep their items and abuse the mechanics
I used to think this was cool, but I really thought deep on this. If I live to see, or hear, about this becoming reality, to this degree, I pity those who don't understand what it's like riding horses or elephants in reality. Or the simple pleasure of burying one's toes in warm sand or tropical water.
Very screwed that you lose ALL your Items that have taken you years to craft just because you died in a game. If I lost my armor and weapons in Monster Hunter just because a monster killed me, I would uninstall the game and go for another game.
I think the reasonable issue is that the Oasis is more like a console/device with the large amount of various content… Can you literally imagine a game that include every character in any media and basically do anything in the virtual world… What possible other “game” can you realistically play…especially knowing that if you play the game, you have a lottery chance of winning BILLIONS!!!
@@Tobylake-jt6gu I was gonna disagree but then I learned they added Lego characters and went hard on everything…the amount of work is mind blowing. I guess it’s the closest equivalent.
I actually like to play games but I also like to travel around the world. Go to the beach and visiting other countries. But If the future is a dystopian world where everyone spends to much time on a VR world and do not care about the planet. There houses are literally containers on top of each other. That’s definitely not the world I want to live in. 😢
The book and comercial headsets came out around the same time. The book was published in 2011 and the oculus set was fundraiser since 2012. But bad headset have existed in arcades since the 90s and gaming companies making promises and plans and authors making stories of headset and virtual worlds have existed for decades.
"Halliday made sure that Oasis was littered with enough randomly powerful stuff that anyone could win, if they had the skills". That doesn't make sense.
This film is why you don't hire someone in his 50's to write about video games. Its ironic that this movie tries to make fun of cooperate leaders ruining creative projects when thats exactly what happened with this movie
If the oasis actually existed I'd spend a lot of time in minecraft so that way I can bring my "heaven community" off my phone and out into the world of the internet
Mckenna Grace is in the movie, but not in that particular moment. She is in the moment in the elementary school, during the scene where Halliday introduces the Easter Egg.
That's the point of the movie and novel right now Humanity has a chance to fix some of the problems but like always corporations, crazy activists, and corrupt politicians aren't making things any easier
@@klaushassen3954 The point of the movie is extremely easy to understand, thats the issue. Your films theme shouldn't be beaten over the head of the audience
A game where you lost everything if you die and go back to square one. The amount of trolls killing people for no reason is gonna be killing this game in an instant.

How is there NO ONE in this entire film with a lightsaber
@firelegodogs yeah idk why he doesn’t use them
Who cares? It's overdone, boring shit. Plus Disney greed.
I love when the guy tried jumping out the window after they killed his avatar his coworkers faces was like oh shit

Who ever was that mad lad that made their avatar sonic is a man of culture
I can't disagree at all!
Wait, where was Sonic?

I think people only get the coins
Cause it the movie people die, you never see people claiming their gear only coins
Like everything becomes liquidated to a coin count, so artifact and weapons would probably respawn where you would find them or have to be bought from the store
You lose everything if you die in this game? Haven't they heard of storage boxes, banks and or item keepers?
Might be that the virtual reality that the creator designed was that you can't keep what you have on you when you game over.
Man, I would definitely not have that in my game, trust me people be crazy for the loot
In real life there would be so many in game serial killers who would just go on mass killings for no other reason other than trolling.
Man the lack of benefit is pathetic, even to theur bleak prediction of the 2020-2040’s

3:43 best part of it all
3:39 Whoa kid just chill chill 😂😂😂😂
If the Oasis actually existed id make sure to pack small but keep enough coins and weapons i don't like on me.
You don’t keep anything. You get to keep your name the same that’s it.

Spielberg is the only guy who can make schindlers list and then make a movie like this a couple years later

I wonder how long it will take us to create something like this... And when it happens, many, many people will live there.

Well... VRChat's getting there, I suppose?
If i couldn't last a full five minutes alive in Fortnite, I know damn good and well I wouldn't last barely a full second on planet doom.
I do believe something like this can exist in real life
it does we just need better vr games and cheaper hardware a haptic suit costs like 500 dollars
It's a very jazzed up version of Second Life - which is mostly a porn sim now.
Wait 20 years and this will become reality

This movie predicted vrchat and the metaverse except without all the furries
Vrchat launched back in 2015 this movie came out in 2018
The book and comercial headsets came out around the same time. The book was published in 2011 and the oculus set was fundraiser since 2012. But bad headset have existed in arcades since the 90s and gaming companies making promises and plans and authors making stories of headset and virtual worlds have existed for decades.
"Halliday made sure that Oasis was littered with enough randomly powerful stuff that anyone could win, if they had the skills".

It took me like 5 years to realize that H was using an AR from halo
FUCK

how about if you make a movie that is 100% accurate to a book
This is even bigger than Wreck it Ralph!
I returned to this scene to see if Rick's avatar was The Comedian from Watchmen but no. And also, can't you put all your stuff in a safe?
