I tend to agree. I think they'll replace that challenge with something more "exciting" like the car race. It's a cool bit in the book, but it's not something that translates well to on-screen action or tension.

So will the sequel be titled READY PLAYER TWO or READY PLAYER ONE, PT. II?

The sequel should be called "CONTINUE?"

The sequel will be titled “Leonard Part 7” in order to score massive meta pop culture nerd points.

Based on the trailers, this movie is going to make my head explode trying to identify all the geek-culture references.

That trailer plays like a remake of THE MATRIX at five times the budget.

I've been reading the book and enjoying the hell out of it. I know there is no way this movie will be able to capture the book's way of conveying the nostalgia, but I think it might be pretty good in its own right.

You don't get it, man. Just like in the book, the big reveal is that in real life she has
. Seriously, that's it.
I do think that they show WAY too much of the ending in that later trailer, including much too much of the actual people that Wade meets in the real world.

All of the things that people are saying “They show too much of this or that” in the trailers are only spoilers for this of us who read the books. For everyone else, it’s just a mish mash of random bullshit, so they should be fine.

Spielberg has made a career out of revisiting the past...a very nostalgic guy.
