So I decided to listen to Ready Player One again for my 10+ mile run this past Sat (well started to listen...I don't run that slow wink) and OMG

do I love that book

I ended up listening for major parts of the weekend and finishing on Sunday

Of course, I'm going to love it. In the prologue, it references Oingo Boingo and has the funeral from Heathers

And D&D and 80's video games..and movies..and..well, if you've read..you know

Here's the thing...have we heard anything about the casting for the now Spielberg helmed movie adaptation?

Who's going to play Art3mis?

My interpretation is that she's supposed to be realistically shaped elf...hmmm..that sounds bad...a curvier elf? (I know, I know...dig up stupid)

And perhaps like Parzival / Wade what I really picked up on is that she's supposed to have the personality of Jordan from Real Genius

So who's going to be this next age inappropiate media crush?

  - heh, to the IM. I might have to give it a listen, then. -- nm - Spawn Jun 23, 20:08 2
    - He's a pretty damn good reader for the book as he's familiar with all the references so gets the cadence right when there's direct quotes from movies - JD Jun 23, 20:10 1
      - Yeah, that was what I was wondering when I asked. Figured he would be dead on. Thanks. -- nm - Spawn Jun 23, 20:11
Ready Player One is what Jack Burton would look like in literary form. - David Jun 23, 20:02
