    I got this.

    Ready Player One.

    The movie was a pretty entertaining Sci film that took the overall concept/plot of the book and then did its thing.

    The book was like a Sci fi incel fan fiction. Like an incel white night wet dream.

    Reading the book first had me almost skip ever seeing the movie, but the movie wasn’t nearly so cringe.

      Uh, the movie made some serious mistakes, namely having them decide to shut down the Oasis 2 days per week, at the end? Where the hell did that come from? There are in-universe people who rely on the Oasis for their livelihoods and self-worth. Fuck 'em, right? And also the main characters are not a “clan” and having Z affirm they were a clan to Og was a middle finger to the book’s whole spiel on not being a clan.
