I dont think its going to resemble thr book much, but if if looks as great as this trailer, has a bunch of rush songs, and has a good story behind it. I think it's going to be freaking awesome.

Cool trailer. Love the look.
It bore no resemblance to the book so far. A teaser trailer establishing the game and universe would have been better.
+1 times infinity. If I hadn't read the book, I would assume this is some kind of Death Race 2017 and pass.

No idea what the race, the scorpion battle, or the robot killing Freddy thing was. Race looked like the old racing Daytona arcade/Saturn game. But that wasn't the 80's

Yes! Was worried as they are changing some things and I just knew Speilberg would cut out my favorite band part. My fears have hopefully been put to rest. This looks great. Speilberg may finally have another classic.

in the comic con panel, they specifically mentioned the game joust and it being in the movie..Hopefully he has to make it through the dungeon to get there.
It is a day one idgaf about reviews for this movie for me. I am incapable of being objective..There are few movies like this for me...BUt its fun when it is.
Seeing the Delorean was awesome and I can confirm for those asking that the race is def not in the book.

Joust, Ferris Bueller, Monty Python, etc. Anything...
SPOILERS
... that has to do with any of the gates, needs to be in it.
If they have to change other things due to the rights, so he it. But they shouldn't change things that have to do with the actual quest.

I haven't read the book, and that's sort of the impression I got from the trailer. I doubt I would go to see it if I hadn't read this thread and had more idea what it really was.

Yeah didn't he have a Delorean as a space ship at one point? Also the ogor has to be H right?

Not sure about the Ogre but im pretty sure they showed the other girl. She was standing on a rock with swords on her back. Also the part where they are spinning in the air is in the book. Disco party or something like that that the other creator is the DJ for.

Reddit grabbed a nice screenshot. "Parzival"

I re listened to the audiobook a few months ago. I am pumped for this.

Yep.
The "army" of other players is the Sixers. They seem a little more militarized in the show than the book, but it makes sense.

Mississippi Slim is the ebst part so far.

I'm sure this is what people felt with Harry Potter. I'm just hoping they don't ruin one of my favorite books.

More like Suxers, amirite?!?
Posted on 7/23/17 at 5:33 pm to ChipDouglas2403
Is that the theme from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory playing in the trailer? World of Pure Imagination?

That was one of the only times I cringed listening to the audio book. Will Wheaton murdered it.

Yeah I liked his narration mostly. But he butchered some of the slang and insults.
