Continuity mistake: After Aech fixes up Art3mis' bike and then Wade returns home, he hops into his window setting his backpack down on his bed. The long flaps coming off the bottom of his shoulder straps are extended out long wise across the bed. But as the camera cuts showing him sliding in and turning around, the straps are lying across the bed along side the backpack hugging right next to it. (00:20:30)

Directed by: Steven Spielberg
Starring: Simon Pegg, T.J. Miller, Olivia Cooke, Hannah John-Kamen
Plot hole: When Wade and Art3mis are in the dance club he uses Zimecki's cube to turn back time 60 seconds. But the time from when IOI crashes through the roof until Wade uses the cube is 75 seconds. So IOI still would have been there for 15 seconds. Not to mention the fact that it just automatically seems to know that it wants the user and Artemis to also be immune to this silly time reverse effect.

Trivia: In the video that Halliday left behind after his death, you see floral arrangements around his coffin that are in the shape of the Star Trek's Federation symbol and one of the Enterprise. But the really cool thing is his coffin is actually a photon torpedo, exactly like Spock was put in after his death at the end of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. Complete with the blue Federation flag draped over the end of it. (00:08:05)
Question: Why does Art3mis seem surprised that she can't finish the race past King Kong for the first Easter egg? Isn't it widespread knowledge by then that nobody can get past that point (which is why there's barely anyone trying to complete the hunt anymore)?
Answer: Maybe she thinks a motorcycle can do it because cars and trucks haven't been able to do it yet.

Answer: If it's widely known then they wouldn't do the race. They keep on trying and getting to the point with King Kong is all they know, somehow getting past him this time. Artemis, when she saw the jump, thought she could do it this time, but after Parzival saves her and tells her it can't be done she realises he is probably right and she wouldn't have made it.
