READY PLAYER ONE SERIES

Wade must make his way through a series of 80s videogame and pop culture references if he is to beat his opponents to the ultimate prize. Now he's in a race to find the rest of the clues, facing off against rival avatars as well as an enormous corporation that is willing to do anything - even kill - to seize control of the OASIS.

That is until Wade finds the first key and his name appears at the top of the Hunt's Scoreboard. But after five years of searching based on Halliday's first clue, the world has mostly forgotten about the Hunt. When OASIS creator James Halliday dies, he leaves his fortune and total control of the game to anyone who can collect three hidden keys and pass three gates in order to find the hidden 'easter egg' in his game. For many, including our protagonist Wade, the only escape is into a virtual world, the OASIS.

Jake's ability to regain full mobility by living a second life in his avatar also resembles the way characters in Ready Player One can drastically redefine themselves by changing their avatar's age, gender, or physical appearance, showing how close the films are thematically.An interesting premise and 80s tribute, but ultimately filthy and unsatisfying.

While the film's story takes place in the 'real world,' much of it was produced through motion-capture animation and computer-generated sets, meaning the movie was produced largely in computers (albeit with the full range of performances from live actors). However, Jake's company is intent on destroying Pandora for its resources, leading Jake to turn on his people and join the Na'vi in repelling the human invaders. Taking place on Pandora, an alien moon populated by the peaceful 'Na'vi,' the story sees paraplegic ex-Marine Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) regain the use of his legs in an unconventional way: By uploading his consciousness into a genetically-engineered Na'vi body (or 'avatar'), he's able to explore Pandora's lush world and befriend its inhabitants. The reboot proved popular and was followed by Jumanji: The Next Level (2019), with a fifth Jumanji film in development. Now, the players get sucked into a jungle-themed game world and take on the identities of their avatar characters (allowing Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson to flex his comedic muscles by acting like a nerdy asthmatic teenager). Years later, however, the franchise was reimagined into a more VR-style event with Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2019). The movie was followed by Zathura: A Space Adventure (2005), also based on one of Van Allsburg's books, which featured the same basic story structure but with an outer space theme. Unfortunately, the players invite disaster as every roll of the dice causes lions, evil monkeys, and even a monsoon to invade their world. Based on the book by Chris Van Allsburg, the movie follows Alan Parrish (Robin Williams), Sarah Whittle (Bonnie Hunt), Judy Shepherd (Kirsten Dunst), and Peter Shepherd (Bradley Pierce) as they struggle to complete a magical board game. Years earlier, director Joe Johnston used a similar structure in his movie Jumanji (1995).
