My xenophobic step-father is a Fox News sponge and Norwegian. I’m sure he’s as happy as a pig in shit over this latest.

I’d like a happy ending where good conquers evil, please. Thanks in advance!

Yes, but the book heavily references all the sources. There’s a whole section where the main character literally reenacts the entirety of the movie WARGAMES, which I’m pretty sure is not in the film adaptation.

I wonder how big a role he’ll play in READY PLAYER ONE...

In the opening sequence of INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE, we find out where Indiana got his

I’m curious about compensation, since this is based on a “creepypasta”. If it makes some money, does the original creator somehow get a piece of that? How do rights work when you’re monetizing something that was always free?
