Steven Spielberg ventured into the world of Virtual Reality with Ready Player One this year, bringing us into the OASIS. Wade AKA Parzival teamed up with Olivia AKA Art3mis to take on the big bad guys from I.O.I in order to go on an Easter Egg hunt. This movie raises a WHOLE lot of questions. What’s up with the inconsistent VR tech? Why did Halliday try to get people to go into the real world by making them dive into the world of VR? What’s up with the thousands of pop culture references? Why are I.O.I. and Nolan Sorento considered super evil when the OASIS is ALREADY profiting off of gamers and taking over their lives? Step inside the pitch meeting that led to Ready Player One. It’s super easy, barely an inconvenience.

It reminds me of a JackSepticEye video where he’s yet again complaining about everyone else’s greed. Then the 6th or 7th add in the video shows up and he had two five minute segments where he advertised merch. He’s a real down to earth guy and all but still.
it’s funny how people say it’s ok when they do something but evil when others do it.

@@ProjektTaku me too, but I hate it when other people have it instead
I like how Executive guy nearly breaks Pitch guy in this one with his "do it in the real world" objection.
The reason this real world stuff makes no sense is easy: none of it was in the book!
you should see him break pitch guy in toy story
@@LordAnublz As if that stopped movies from adding in stuff that wasn't in the book.
@@LordAnublz Yeah, the book's message was about the importance of relationships, not to mire oneself in solitude, and how the virtual world can help people form bonds regardless of distance or social backgrounds and makes no difference on how honest and genuine these friendships can be. Instead Hollywood decided to go with some kind of boomer friendly, stereotype-validating "spending everyday playing video games is bad lol". I'm sad Ernest Cline didn't veto that.

If I was producing a movie costing tens of millions of dollars, hiring Ryan as test audience or even as a script editor would be an excellent investment☝️
I'm convinced that they're doing Ford Pinto math when they make movies: so many percentage of people will hate it and it will underperform, but we don't want to invest the extra money to be sure that fewer people hate it (or that anybody loves it).
It wouldn't be an excellent investment. Lol. Movies are to make money not be logically consistent or anything like that.

"It's OK when we do it." This applies to literally every movie from any major Hollywood studio that preaches about evil, greedy corporations.

Not just that, but racism, sexism, any other ism, and just about any other moral grandstand they try to make
Well it's "Evil" because it would be competition for them. If they make everyone believe it's "Evil" then no one will try and take their throne:-)
Ferngully comes to mind especially.
I work at a call center. Today a customer called in and asked if something I was asking them to do would be difficult. Of course, my response was, "It'll be super easy; barely an inconvenience!"
Kyle knew it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he lied.
The caller never got the reference. He kept calling angrily, asking why Kyle had told him it'd be easy when it wasn't. Kyle responding with "whoops" or "I don't know" or asking him to get all the way off his back about it only seemed to make the caller angrier.
His boss had a stern talk with him about the recurring problems. His why-question being correctly answered "Because" didn't evoke the expected "Fair enough" response.
It is a mad world we live in, where people don't know references to Ryan George's Pitch Meetings series.
Kyle got fired from his job. But he returned to his former office, did a backflip, snapped the bad guy's neck and saved the day.
The murder sentence was unjustified. Kyle got thrown into solitary confinement in one of the securest prisons in the United States. Escaping from there was impossible.
Actually, it was super-easy, barely an inconvenience, so now Kyle is back among the living, carrying Pitch Meeting quotes to the uneducated and improving their silly ignorant lives.
_The end._

When I was a kid we had a NASCAR racing game and the first thing I did was go backwards so I could ram the other cars head-on every lap
Ram the other cars head- on is tight!
Yup! Cause going left the entire time was super boring.
I don't think that qualifies as "head on".
We played Nascar two player. One of us went forward, and the other went backwards all the time.
Also, it took me a few days before going backwards in DKC 2's Rickety Race level
@@Yasviele but the cars would wreck, wouldn't that make it harder to win?
"what about the players who can play only in Tuesdays and Thursdays!"
"Screw them"

How I feel about Pokémon go raids
@matt murdock well all the raids are from like 7am to 7pm. But I did most of my play time at night. So raids were the one things I can’t really do.

Very harsh.

I was just about to write this exact thing!
Rewatching these vids and getting surprised by all the great forgotten humor is tight!
@@TheShananagan screwing people is super easy, barely an inconvenience :)
There are other logistical issues with that plan as well. Is that Tuesdays and Thursdays Cleveland time? So wouldn't that just mean people in certain parts of the world would have an advantage by playing at more convenient times? Or would it be the entirety of Tuesdays and Thursdays across the whole globe? Which would actually mean it would technically stretch from half-way through Monday to half-way through Friday depending on where you lived.
Iron Giant movie: Iron Giant doesn't want to be a weapon.
This movie: The Iron Giant is a weapon.
Facepalm.
Only in the movie... its only a passing reference in the book... the giant bots in the book are much mor obscure... the book fills in most if not all the plot holes too..
Well he was a killer robot whether he wanted to be or not. He was clearly designed for battle. He even survived being at ground 0 of a hydrogen bomb, though he was severely inconvenienced by it, what with all his parts separating from each other and getting scattered around the planet.
@@medexamtoolscom Plus he wasn't the only Iron Giant.
I think Aech made it custom.
@@medexamtoolscom Right, but one of the big reasons everyone hated IOI was because they didn’t understand the reason behind why the Oasis and other media was popular, only that it was, but then the good guys use a character in a way that contradicts what he was in his story. It’s just hypocritical

Same!
Literally the only thing I watch of SR now😂
Pitch meetings are tight!
Facts
I can’t believe SR didn’t love this comment. Seems like it’d be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
in the book, if you unplugged your avatar was left vulnerable for 60 seconds
I do not know the book, but it is pretty easy to solve that problem: If you unplug before you are in a safe spot or completed a level, your character is going to die with all the money. So nobody wants or can let that happen since most existences are related to the OASIS nowadays. So unplugging would render them useless against the bad guys and so they do not do that. Pretty simple mechanic that would just explain it all and very close to real video games too.
@@ContinuumGaming Exactly even the part where he mentions that the game has an "inconsistent gameplay and controllers" isn't even a plot hole or an issue itself since there's videos games with different gameplay and modes to enjoy also some can allow different controllers especially true in PC so a MMORPG VR game with tons of modes, MODS and event could offer these types of "inconsistent gameplay".
@@bobonox4233 It’s basically like modern VR tho. You could buy an omnidirectional treadmill and play on that or stand still and use joysticks or physically move around and (if your play space isn’t big enough) occasionally bump into things
@@iDrexcy Yeah but I mean... RUNNING IN THE STREETS with a VR set on. Come on !

"Creative."
"Then they must gang up in the real world to save Olivia/Samantha from the IOI headquarters."
"Wow, four poor kids, who never met and may literally live anywhere on the entire planet, must find a way to travel to the IOI headquarters? That journey alone could fill an entire movie!"

"They all live in the same city, not far from the IOI headquarters."
"Are you kidding me?! My internet buddies, the ones I really clicked with, always lived hundreds of miles away. That't the greatest thing about the internet: you can find the coolest people in the entire world, not just the ass-clowns who happen to live near you. It's simply not authentic to--"

Of all the things I wasn’t a fan of. Was very much how everyone was easily so close to each other.
😂😂
They were very separated in the book... The two brothers lived in Japan.
Hey what about that scene where the evil executive guy is trying to persuade the main character that he is a geek and relatable too but is actually just being fed lines by someone else which is basically the whole movie
I'm start to watch these pitch meetings instead of the movies.. saves a lot of time and it's usually more fun to watch.. it's enough to satisfy my curiosity about the movies.

I just binge watched a bunch of these, and definitely my favorite is "Wow, wowwowwow, wow" and it's many variants.
The thing about the haptic suit making you feel pain when you otherwise wouldn't actually really bothered me too! The only situation in which the haptic suit would be remotely advantageous is for mature audiences only.
If we're talking real applications of haptic suits, there are a number of reasons they could be useful, though any "pain" indications would be minimal as in more of a nudge instead of actual pain. There was a special I watched about one in development that the person could feel the virtual breeze that had been programmed. This could be useful for greater immersion and other avenues for sensory input like texture, resistance, ... and of course the mature content you mention.
Oh man, mature audiences are TIGHT.
Same with the book Eye of Minds... it too has fancy VR suits that make you feel pain, and the whole book I was wondering why on earth they never took them off?
In the book, pain could be optionally turned off. The advantage from the suit was, obviously you could use it for pleasure, but it also gave a sense of surrounding and immersion. You could better tell if someone was behind you, feel a tap on the shoulder, feel like you were actually holding something, etc. The Oasis was posed as an alternative to reality, where people went to thoroughly escape their real lives.
Hey remember the Iron Giant?
I use "super easy, barely an inconvenience" everyday and no one knows that I got it from here.
No worries buddy I use it everyday too and people just assume something is, "super easy barely an inconvenience"
Kevin it would be sometime before everyone does
Fair enough. Saying "super easy barely an inconvenience" is tight.
So it mean we don't live next door like all those caracters in the movie. Seem it was super easy.
Mr.E same
I like how logical Executive guy is being, and then when screenwriter guy says that Wade talks to the dead Halliday without explanation, executive guy doesn't even bat an eye.
I'm jealous of Ryan's hair.
There, I've admitted it. Now get all the way off my back about it.
I’m jealous of those sky blue eyes
OK, I'll make sure to get right off that thing...
His beard and glasses are super tight.
@@gillianc592 Don't his eyes hurt? And if the beard is tight, how can he expand the lower jaw to form form words?
Ryan should become a screenwriter for movie studios
His boss Ryan won't let him
Very different creating a story than critizing it.
Why would they hire him? Finding flaws is a lot easier than writing the script yourself. And the studios dont need perfect scripts, because enough people will eat it up anyway.
If Ryan actually worked for the movie studios, they would destroy his individuality and he would become one of them.
Is this anyone else’s favorite part of screen rant
Yes
+Juliana It's the only part worth watching...
It is Everyone's favourite.
Definitely the best thing ever.
pitch meeting is tight
Distracting your boss is tight

No wonder we geeks are now in charge.
So, remember Smaug from The Hobbit? I’m definitely not distracting you right now.
"His suit lets him get virtually kicked in the balls and feel the pain in real life"
ROTFLMFAO oh technology has come a long way :D
Hiding the Easter eggs in the game reminds me of when kids shows have commercials telling kids play for 60 minutes a day, followed by all their favorite shows coming up for the next 8 hours.
Celebrity messages: “Hey kids back in the day I did X and now I’m a millionaire with a hot wife and pretty much above the law so you shouldn’t do it.”
My father’s advice : “Don’t beat up your friends when they ignore you” even though it never affected him negatively.
Jacksepticeye says that too. He also says, “Disruptive advertising is bad.” He uses an average of six adds or more per video, then spends minutes talking about his own merch in the video. Even subtracting charitable donations Jacksepticeye is one of the two fastest wealth growers in the entire British Isles.
Portal the video game: “Go outside and play.”. But here’s a hook for all the other games in our series. And some DLC.
It’s what I call the Harry Potter/Spiderman conundrum. You use a main character, grandma, or celebrity to get people to pay attention to your message. Then the character does/did things.
Now the audience either:
A: (no longer respects/empathizes with celebrity) or
B: (wants to do it themselves.)
PS I can’t spell. Sorry.

Some other company will make a billion dollars by being open Tues and Thurs.
Having read the book, “super easy, barely an inconvenience” can basically describe all of the events of Ready Player One.
That's one of the key flaws of ALL of Cline's books (RP1, RP2, Armada...). His main character just so happens to have mastered every single thing that the plot's challenges require, unless the plot requires him to have a gap in that otherwise godlike and encyclopedic skillset or knowledge just long enough for him to somehow overcome that with his godlike and encyclopedic knowledge or skillset. It's fun the first couple times, and then it just gets tedious.
Your comment should be on the dust cover of the book.
@@jeffbaer5851 Ernest Cline strikes me as conflict averse.
..so I completed Pac Man with a perfect score...
@@steve16384 🤣
4:40 my face when I realize the CEO just made the whole plot of the movie (and even the book, which I thought was impossible) better by 200 percent.
Madwurst I don't agree about the book being improved; because what Haliday cared most about was getting people to love what he loved. That was his goal. Sure he was worried about people spending too much time in the Oasis, but I don't think he cared nearly as much about that as introducing people to all the things that he loved most in the world.
Furthermore, he was a brilliant game designer (meaning he could code everything himself). While having no experience creating things in the real world so he would have needed to get people to help do everything with setting up the hunt. Then he would have had to kill them all to make sure that no one told people where the eggs were.
Finally, travel in the real is extremely dangerous and expensive; and sure travel in the Oasis isn't cheap and safe either; but it's so much cheaper and safer than real world travel in the book's universe. So a real world egg hunt would have given an even bigger advantage to companies and rich individuals.
"Pop Culture references are tight!" - he ain't lying.
LOL...oh brother where art thou!

I really enjoyed the first one... Before I read the books
Let’s all start commenting for this to be made on every new pitch meeting video!
Yeah
I think IOI wanted to do more with the Oasis than just add product placement. I think they wanted to make it pay to play which would make it harder for people's Oasis jobs. It's been a while though, so I don't remember if that was the case lol.
The movie did such a horrible job at world building that the bad guys didn't even come across as bad guys. Like, I0I were so horrible in the book because they were basically if Google and the Kremlin had a baby. If you owed them money, they could literally put you into indentured servitude. I0I didn't want to just put ads, they wanted to make the Oasis a subscription based that only the elites could play it. There is so much more to this, but all in all. The movie was horrendous.
@@finalfant111 That's why I'm glad I haven't read the book, because I liked the movie. It helps that Christine was it.
LoL. I wish games were just monetized with subscription fees. Free to play games are in reality pay to win. Real life companies are so much worse than this fictional villain company sounds.
As well as ad's everywhere, IOI was also going to charge for access to the oasis.
The reason they don't just "unplug" is that they would lose their character, its stats and any inventory they might have at the time. Players would have to start from scratch, Most people had been playing for years and wouldn't want to do that.
The book is way better than the movie.
Do you have any idea how long I had to scroll and how much I had to read to find someone who made this comment so that I could be spared from repeating somebody?!
That being said, yes and thank you!
No checkpoints?
Not really, you'd have to be in a non PVP world in order to be completely safe if I remember correctly.
@@gmah26 So it only matters if you "combat log"?
For the people who don't understand, if we take off our visors, our avatars would be stuck for a 1-5 minutes and we wouldn't be able to protect ourselves and if we are in a PvP zone then someone could kill us which would lead to the eradication of our avatar and stats and the items and the money we spent would be gone and we would have to start from scratch. The book is a LOT better and different from the movie, so read that first.

This is one of my favourite pitch meeting videos so far!

Thanks for liking my comment!
Rad Callum you mean tv shows and movies
Yes! He totally should!
The Oasis isn’t a game, it’s a virtual world that contains, well a lot of games. But some people get their entire education inside Oasis schools, people work inside of it, shop, do just about everything really, and it’s FREE for anyone to access. IOI was going to completely monetize it, effectively cutting off the Oasis to the lower classes. The movie did a poor job of explaining how integral Oasis was to a society that had fallen quite low.
Hey you remember King Kong?????
Yeah, I remember King Kong.

"Hey remember [that pop culture thing]?" is now my go-to excuse to win any argument.
Seems pretty close to Whataboutism, but instead of vaguely known stuff you reference stuff everyone likes, so that makes you a good person.
I cracked up every time pitch guy derails executive guy's valid line of questioning with an appeal to pop culture and executive guy responded 'That is tight! Wait, what were we talking about?'

WB Executive: Ah, changing the personalities of two main characters is TIGHT!
Ramiro Belmares nobody listens to reminders. Have you ever watched Netflix?
They couldn't just take of their headsets because if they get killed in the VR world they would lose all their digital coins they had collected over months and years.
They must be very thankful they never experienced a power outage or a bad internet connection in the stacks. Super stable slum infrastructure is tight!
correct me if i am wrong but that was in the books only right?
@@noone36101 I don't remember-- my biggest hangup watching the movie is the Curator. THAT'S NOT HOW WADE GOT THE EXTRA LIFE.
@@noone36101 In the books, if I recall correctly, you couldn't just take off your VR headset if you were under attack or in a fight. If you did that, your character would just freeze and you could get easily killed, this was so taking off your headset wouldn't allow people to run away from fights. You had to find a safe place and then you could log off.
Man I remember more about the book than I thought
I loved the book, but hated the movie. Spielberg should take a lesson from Ridley Scott's "The Martian". THAT's how you turn a great book into a great movie. You actually follow the story that's in the book.
I need "Super easy! Barely an inconvenience!" on a T-Shirt! XD
There's already a T-shirt! Google Ryan George's website for it.
guys you lost a perfect opportunity to put a banner ad at 1:12 that doubles as a meta joke
Every time you say “IOI”, I hear “Why oh Why”
do one for scott pilgrim vs the world please
Except that movie was good
It's amazing that you put more thought into these than the film makers ever did. :)
This guy is spot on! I remember reading the Ernest Cline book and thinking he's just stuck a load of 80's pop culture references in there to target the big dogs in Hollywood and the leaders of cgi/3D animation. A plan well executed.
Love to see How I Met Your Mother 😀
Or Married With Children, Full/ER House, My Wife Kids, George Lopez, Home Improvement, or the Prince of bel air
Matt Parsons Buy the DVD then.
Yes i would love to watch them tear that overrated TV show a new one
Man.. THIS series is one of the best things UA-cam can offer..
Actually in the book it's explained why when the characters are in danger they can't just take off their headset because when your headset is taken off it takes a few seconds for your avatar to dematerialize so you can be killed in those few seconds so just taking off your headset doesn't work
This is true for some existing games . In Diablo III, for exampe, your character can die when you disconnect, because it takes time to quit. And I think in some games ping also might be a reason.
Many of the book features were not explained in movie. The book itself hardly a best-seller, but it makes some sense. Movie just looses most of it.
"In the book" annnndddd you've already lost the argument. The audience shouldn't have to read the book for a movie's plot hole.
Also, the book was bad. In a sane world it'd have been titled "Wikipedia: The Novel" given the chapter length explanations of every freaking game featured in the plot.
@@ChristophBrinkmann I wasn't necessarily defending the movie by explaining something from the book and as for your critique of the book while it may be tedious for someone who already knew about all that stuff for me and many others it was our first introduction to a lot of things from 80s culture I may never have heard of war games robotron or the final level of Pac-Man the book for me has acted as baby's first cyberpunk as well as helping to define my musical tastes. Sorry for the rambling reply but the book is pretty special to me so I get pretty up in arms defending it
It took 8 years to make AND it’s still nothing like the book. What is Hollywood doing...
I couldn't get last the first 20 mins. The book was way better
Woah buddy I'm gonna need you to get all the way off Ryan's back
@@Bigcashmoney12 the book is trash lol
@@ptaramson1553 Did you like the movie?
Hollywood is to busy going Woke like self destruct.
"What about people who can play only on Tuesdays & Thursdays?"
Screw them!!
That killed me.😂
Me too 😂
"Its gonna be shut down on tuesdays and thursdays!"
Tbf, WoW patching days used to be like this, with the game being unplayable for most of tuesdays. Its not like that today but it used to be.
Olivia was the name of the actress. In the movie her character's name was Samantha.
Alec Rodriguez hey remember Chucky... Yeah he's in it too!
Whoopsie
In the book, the reason they can't just quit the game to avoid dying is that leaving the game makes your character stand still for a minute. The only problem is that the movie completely overwrites that and they leave the game instantly
And the book was also horrid
"Why do they fall in love?"
"Because they are the main characters"
"Gotcha!"
That is a rather annoying trope.
Am I early enough to scream about a piTCH MEETING OF A PITCH MEETING
Corvus Nine no it would suck
Aditya Dandwate it would be TIGHT
M H yes and the suggester is probably me. And who said anything about special? How did you land on that conclusion??
IT WOULDN'T BE FUNNY.
Devonian but it would be super easy barely an inconvenience
That "BLEH" at the beginning 0:10 is one of my favourite reaction from Pitch Meetings.
Pop culture references are TIGHT!
What was I talking about?
The more you think about this movie the less sense it makes.
Exactly
Sounds like most movies to be fair
If you think about it, most of history sounds like a bad movie pitch.
"Okay, we got this guy Hitler who attacks the British Empire."
"Wow, that's the biggest empire in the world. Guess that's going to take up all his attention."
"No, then he attacks the Soviet Union too."
"Wow, that's the biggest country in the world. Guess now he's going to stop collecting enemies."
"No, then he declares war on the United States too."
"Wow, that's the most powerful economy in the world. So how is he going to fight all three at once? Is he going to build an atomic bomb or something?"
"No, he cancels his atomic bomb program in the middle of the war."
"So is he going to build advanced aircraft?"
"No, his head of the air force believes that piston planes are superior to jet planes."
"Germany has lots of Jewish scientists, so will he ask for their help?"
"Uh, not exactly . . . . "
Alias Anybody yeah because you did not play the game
So read the book. A lot better
I Love When The Executive Guy
Asks Something And Pitch Guy Just Delivers A Pop Culture Reference
I made the going backwards point as I was watching the movie in theaters, I knew it was ridiculous and didn't make any sense.
This is what happens when adults make stories about videogames. They have no idea what it's really like.
My wife made that point when we saw it and she barely knows what a video game is...
PITCH MEETING IDEA: FIFTH ELEMENT PLEASE :)
If a new racing game launches, typically the third guy tries going backwards even if it's not a circular arena, especially if it is not a circular arena
My favourite thing about these shorts are the objections from the boss lmao "because I don't wanna"
"The book part?"
"Beh!"
Gold
"So at the head of IOI there's this guy Nolan Sorrento''
''Oh cool, what's the deal with him?''
''All he cares about is money''
''Oh I like this guy''
for real, these pitch meetings are one of the great contents here on youtube. just can't get enough of this.
Can you do this super popular movie called 12 Angry Men?
Jarrett Johnson do you mean the old movie with Henry Fonda?
He killed his father!
Ooh patricide is tight!
This pitch makes more sense than the film does.
I never saw the movie, after watching Everything Wrong With Ready Player One and the Pitch Meeting for it I'm glad I didn't see it.
@@EchthelionII oh the movie is good
Its just that its not what we were hoping for
Its basicly a visual novel instead of a compelling story which is sad
But i do recommened the book its better than the movie
Isaiah Albers it’s a good movie. The pitch meeting is just marking fun for laughs and cinemasins isn’t a reliable source.
@Jay Foli-Archer I just judge by how it looks and the points I believe are genuine and not jokes. I am a very logical person so if a movie doesn't have a lot of logical sense I think it's bad and wont watch it
Cinemasin isn't a reliable media to based on and Pitch Meeting is more of a satire comedy show. but i do think RP1 have a really far fetch story
Lesson from this pitch meeting: When you start to lose someone, start talking about BATMAN.....
You are not wrong. Every time they ask me why I want a job or a raise I say "Because I'm Batman" and I get the job or the raise.
Please do skyscraper
And talk about how nobody tried rescuing him but instead all stayed on the ground cheering him
Batman is TIGHT!
Pitch guy: You know the book ready player one
Boss: Yes?
Pitch guy: Well screw the book we’re just using the name
THIS
I'm so glad there's 100 of these I discovered this last night and I think I barely made a dent this is great
We need a pitch meeting for pitch meeting.
"Won't that get repetitive? "
"I don't know."
"Okay then!"
y-yea yea yea!!!
They did it
See episode 100
