Ready Player One | March 29, 2018 | Spielberg directing | No untagged spoilers allowed

[Chewy]

Was gonna post something about this and Flash opening 2 weeks apart then I remembered they're 2018 dates and aren't even worth thinking about

[Prime Mover and Shaker]

Don't screw this one up.  It's a favorite of mine...

When a character gets plugged in to a virtual world it's tough for the audience to maintain interest and the movie to maintain tension as the audience knows that the character is himself/herself not really experiencing anything and just lying down somewhere else.

The Matrix got it right but in that our world is shown as fake and it was unique in that the fake world the character is plugged into is our real world. That helped connect with characters in the "fake" world.

Are there other good films where the character is plugged into a virtual world?

both Trons and parts of Virtuosity are the first ones that come into my brain.  Now as for them being "good" is obviously up to someone's opinion

well I am not going to say that Virtuosity was "good" (although I like it for what it is), but you do get to see a young Denzel Washingon and young Russell Crow in their first movie together

Ben Mendelsohn confirmed too.

[CoolioD1]

liked him a lot in mud. growing up to be a weird looking dude.

[XMenSaga]

sexy weird looking dude in any case, to me, lol.

 

Exciting news, being already a Tye follower since Mud (and a Cyclops supporter too, lol). This kid is so talented, such a cool proyect/collab after Apocalypse, and more to come for sure

[Avatree]

I like Tye Sheridan, found out yesterday he is in the new Xmen, this is good news too.

I just started reading the book, it's very promising. Spielberg is really directing it?

You should probably familiarize yourself with his work. I think you'll really enjoy it
