Ready Player One & Armada

I'm probably going to sound a little snobby here, but although I enjoyed the premise and overall arch of RPO, I found it to be so badly written... Ernest Cline means well and clearly put a lot of passion into it, but he's no writer. His prose is so poor it's painful. Still wanna see the film.

I've read RPO around 2 times in the past couple years, and really enjoy the nostalgia-romp each time!

Just finished "Ctrl+Alt Revolt!", and shares a few similarities with RPO. Recommended.

@lilbud Hah! Fun zooming in to read the news clippings. I see a spelling error in the newspaper headline (well a word usage error). They used “then” when they should have used “than”.

Obviously, the Iron Giant and the Delorean from 'Back to the Future' were on front display here, but did anyone happen to catch Freddy Krueger in there? This is an amazing first showing from the film.

Also, the trailer music is Pure Imagination from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

It's so subtly mixed in there too. Like when the Dagobah theme is briefly played when you see that kid dressed as Yoda in 'E.T.' on Halloween, or the Ark theme in the crypts under the library in 'Last Crusade'. Very, very cool!

Guys in the end of armada,what does the phrase the emissary says mean? Is (spoiler alert) it possible that the solidity will give technology advanced enough to bring back Xavier?
