Art3mis Archives

She looked absolutely stunning in a black sequined number, and the Edgleys performed selections by The Eurythmics, No Doubt, The Banges, and more. I cannot tip my hat enough to the organizers and promotors of the event — from the DeLorean outside to the incredible printed materials and decorations that were literally everywhere inside the Fluxx[...]

But that's the setting of the story, and it's why the Contest matters as much as it does, to everyone. I can probably write for hours about how the casting of Olivia Cooke as Art3mis was a missed opportunity to cast someone other than the Hollywood normal body type, but I did really feel she nailed the[...]

Touching on the prevalence of bullies and those who pick on lower level and/or poorer gamers?  Yes, because that's part of the point of the freaking story. Main character Wade Watts and his avatar Parzival (played in the film by Tye Sheridan) is poor, and a low level character in the gamer-culture world of the OASIS *because*[...]

Get advance tickets now: https://t.co/uyuPQXAgmi pic.twitter.com/CSjk4bO2Dz — Ready Player One (@readyplayerone) March 15, 2018 In that trailer, you get another voiceover of Wade Watts (Tye Sheridan) talking to himself, going over what apparently is the film version of Anorak's Quest quatrain clue that Gunters follow with the hopes of finding the three keys.  Once collected and challenges[...]

This new trailer has been showing on NBCSports during the Olympics; I first saw it last night. Seeing the High Five together is interesting: Olivia Cooke as Art3mis, Sheridan as Parzival, Win Morisaki as Daito, Philip Zhao as Shoto, and Lena Waithe as Aech. Ready Player One is set to hit theaters on March 29th. [...]

(again with the men's sizes) There *are* some female shirts, but as usual they cost $2-5 dollars more than the men's sizing.  The best is definitely this ringer tee with the keys and an attempt at the quatraine from Anorak's Invitation. The boys' pjs, of course, because pockets.  What the hell is up with that anyway? [...]

We're getting ever closer to the release of Ready Player One next month, and that means we're finally starting to see some merchandise.  Specifically- the AMAZING Funko Pop Vinyl collection being released for the film. Seriously, this is a fabulous set of figures INCLUDING THE KEYS that make such an important appearance in the source material book[...]

But there is more of Parzival's speech to the Gunter army, there is more of him and Art3mis together And perhaps the most interesting choice: several shots of Aech. I've been trying really hard not to talk about the source material plots revolving Aech, because the reveal of that is sort of one of the most[...]

In the book, he is the first person to find the key and go through the gate. Then we've got Art3mis/Samantha Evelyn Cook played by Olivia Cooke, second to find the key and successfully go through the gate. We've got Aech, (I'm trying real hard not to spoil the big reveal for non-book readers) who is Parzival's best[...]

King Kong makes a brief appearance on top of the Empire State building. Art3mis on her Akira bike, which happens to have a WonderWoman logo on it Blanka from Street Fighter right behind Art3mis and that bartender is wearing a Devo hat. The OASIS librarian (new character invented for the film) giving Parzival and Art3mis what looks[...]
