VIDEO : Was Spielberg The Right Choice To Bring 'Ready Player One' To Life?

Steven Spielberg's unique approach to blockbuster cinema defined the '80s and '90s.
His newest movie released today: Ready Player One
The film is based on the best-selling novel by Ernest Cline.
The movie is wall-to-wall pop culture nostalgia.
It's filled with hundreds of Easter eggs from 40 years of movies and TV shows.
Was Spielberg right for this movie?
No other director in the world has a better visual aesthetic.
But, he is arguably not an ideal candidate for this kind of movie.
He lacks the visceral connection to '80s culture that so defines the film.
