Interesting, I hadn’t realized they were making a movie of it. Didn’t realize the book was popular enough to warrant it. I thought the story was okay, if predictable with way too much “deus ex machina” moments throughout.

The main picture for the article though already has me sighing. If I remember right, the stacks are suppose to be mostly mobile homes, with a few RVs. Looks like they got that backwards. Plus if that person is suppose to be the main character ... he’s suppose to be overweight until about 2/3rds of the way through. Yes, I always seem to immediatly find all the little things that don’t match the books, but makes me wonder just how much they butchered the overall story like Hollywood tends to do.



Not sure what the focus on the mail trucks is, there isn’t one mentioned once in the book.

Curious that they’re filming in the UK instead of the actual real Columbus Ohio. You’d have to think filming in the UK is more expensive then a relatively small city in the US. But, 95% of the book takes place in the OASIS so I guess okay. The OASIS isn’t dystopia though.
