I think I saw Perry's likeness in "Ready Player One"

#1 Post by Larry B. » Thu Mar 29, 2018 3:01 pm

There is a scene in a big disco, where loads of avatars are dancing. At some point, in a very quick succession of shots, I'm pretty sure I saw Perry in his hat + dreadlocks era, more or less like the image I'm attaching.

Not sure if it was meant to be him, but I saw that guy and I thought "I caught that reference - that's Perry."

I just got back from seeing it. I couldn't remember anything about your post but recognized the character you were referencing the moment I saw him. That said, I would be shocked if it were intentional. He's only on the screen for a brief moment but I very much focused on whether he looked like he was based off of Perry and I did not see anything there beyond a coincidental likeness. Good eye though.

It was no cinematic classic but definitely a fun popcorn flick.

By the way, apparently that was the Joker and Harley Quinn.

Today I saw it again, and my nephew told me "that was the Joker and Harley Quinn!"... but all I still see is Perry.

I've always thought at least physically, especially in his late '91 Lollapalooza tour close-shaved hair style look, Perry would be a good fit playing the Joker.
