Goodtrash Genrecast

We wrap up November with a sci-fi adventure as we discuss Stephen Spielberg's adaptation of the beloved novel Ready Player One. Set in the near future in a dystopian world where everyone thrives online, Ready Player One is a feast of nostalgia and pop culture. But is there any meat in this dish? Or is it all sweets? We dig into the smorgasbord of intellectual properties provided by Warner Bros. to discuss nostalgia, pastiche, the online world, taking back power and means, and much more as we head into the Analysis OASIS.  TIMESTAMPS 00:30 - Introductions and Synopsis 04:32 - Quick Ready Player One Reviews 16:24 - Expanding the Syllabus 34:29 - Analysis 1:05:01 - Shelf or Trash 1:05:55 - Wrap up and Next Week's Film
