I've seen a few articles that have a list of “all the Easter Eggs” but none of them are even close. This is an ongoing attempt at cataloging as many as possible. Nearly every scene taking place in the Oasis is 99% full of references, especially the opening scenes but some are too blurry to see or I just can't figure out who/what it is. Let me know if anyone finds anything I missed.

• Protoss zealot on the left, all gold, Starcraft video game from Blizzard, walking with what looks like an IOI agent
• There's a guy in all black with a black fedora and huge gold chain around his neck walking away from the camera - this is the first time we see him but he shows up a lot. who?
• First zooming in on Planet Doom, there is a huge clash of two armies with giant scorpions coming from the left (Clash of the Titans?) and men mounted on ostriches coming from the right similar to the video game Joust

• Doc Brown, back from the future outfit, Back to the Future, 1985
• Movie note: 1972 is the mint date on the quarter in focus on Halliday's right eye and is also Halliday's birthday. The quarters in the book were minted in 1984 but no reason is given for this date.
• In the funeral scene, Halliday is wearing a Simon electronic game pin on his lapel
• Halliday's funeral is a Star Trek themed funeral
• Halliday's casket is a MkII photon torpedo from Star Trek II which is draped with a flag of the Federation of Planets similar to how Spock's casket appeared at the end of the same movie.
• Halliday sits up in his casket to a creepy music bite - this seems to mimic Dracula sitting up in his coffin in the old Beli Lugosi Dracula movies but I can't find a reference

• In the Halliday scholars scene, there's two guys around a table of a bunch of comics but they're too blurry to make out
• In the same scene, the camera goes past the next table and behind it, on a large light box or monitor, is a blown up page from a comic. I get the impression it was Morituri but again, not enough detail to tell
• Movie note: Nolan is such a dick, his tie has “NS IOI” on it, his name and his company
• Aech's truck is a modified Bigfoot 3 (the monster truck) from 1984
• There's Something About Mary, 1998, directed by the Farrelly brothers

• Art3mis' motorcycle is Kaneda's bike from AKIRA with Hello Kitty, Wonder Woman, The Greatest American Hero, “No IOI”, OASIS, Atari, Ms. Pac-Man stickers on it.

• The dates on Parzival's Delorian's time circuit are: Oct 26, 1985; Feb 11, 2045; Nov 12 1955. The first and third dates are from times that Doc Brown punches into the time circuit when showing it to Marty in Back to the Future. The second date “…tells you where you are…” which is the present, in-movie date. Of note, the first date shows where you're going and the third shows where you were so the circuits are set to show that the Delorian last came from 1955 and is set to go to 1985.
