Get Ready To Return To The Oasis In November With Ready Player Two

Get Ready Player Two. 

Strap on your headset and let's return to the Oasis.  The sequel to the 2011 Ernest Cline virtual world adventure, Ready Player One is set for release on November 24th.

Ernest Cline has been hard at work to bring us the sequel to Ready Player One and it was announced yesterday that the sequel will be release in November with pre-orders already available.  Expect more 1980s pop-culture references and a virtual world where all dreams are possible in Ready Player Two.

Not much is known about the sequel apart from Ernest Cline confirming the main characters from Ready Player One will be returning and the book is 384 pages.  We do have the cover which doesn't give much away except for an 8-bit figure that looks like the main character from the Atari 2600 game, Pitfall.  Could we see an Indiana Jones style adventure perhaps?

Ready Player One had the Steven Spielberg treatment in 2018 and went on to gross $582 million globally which saw box-office receipts from Spielberg movies reach over $10 billion since the start of his directing career.

The plot of Ready Player One sees the main character Wade Watts trying to figure out the clues to finding three keys that the creator of the Oasis, James Halliday has left somewhere in the virtual world.  Whoever finds these keys will become the owner of the entire Oasis.  A race against time ensues as we have Watts and his team battling to find the keys before Nolan Sorrento, the CEO of Innovative Online Industries (IOI.)

Readers of this site will know that I am a huge fan of Ready Player One and Ernest Cline (You should read Armada, it's another epic read) and I cannot wait to be back in the Oasis from November.  We will keep you updated on any further news and look out for a chance to win the book when it's released later on in the year.  In the mean time you can pre-order your copy from our affiliated link.

Did Paul Freeman Accidentally Eat A Fly In Raiders of the Lost Ark?

The Famous Indiana Jones Fly In Belloq's Mouth Scene.  Did It Really Happen? I've always wondered if Paul Freeman unintentionally consumed a fly in this scene in  Raiders of the Lost Ark ?  It's the scene where Indiana Jones shouts down to Bellosh...I mean Belloq and threatens to blow up the ark.  Did a fly go in his mouth? I remember watching this scene back in the early eighties and my ten year old mind thought he definitely had a snack while filming.  I recall talking about 'flygate' in my school playground at the time and the general consensus with my friends was that Freeman definitely had a sneaky snack. Paul Freeman talks about the famous 'fly' scene in an interview with TheIndyExperience.com  and settled 'flygate:' This is a bit of a dicey question so don’t get too upset. (Laughs) A movie’s always got bloopers in it, some have a lot, and some only have three or four. And the most remarkable blooper was right before the opening of th

Pinewood Studios To Expand To The Usa

BBC News have reported that Pinewood Studios are to expand to the USA.  This is great news for the famous studio that is rich in movie history. UK film studio Pinewood Shepperton has announced plans to build its first sound stages in the United States. The Pinewood Atlanta complex will be built on 288 acres of land south of Atlanta, Georgia, as a joint venture with a US investment company. Georgia has been among the US states drawing film-making away from Hollywood with tax incentives in recent years. The deal is the latest sign of expansion at Pinewood, the home of the James Bond franchise. Earlier this month it announced a joint venture with a Chinese media group, potentially giving it access to the fast-growing Chinese market. Read the full article here.
