      Yeah, the book is actually amazing.
      The movie feels like ppl would have figured all these things out in a week. After the first key, they DO figure out the rest like immediately, why did it take years to get the first one?
      In the book, the first key is practically made so that only kids could get it and there's like months between shit getting figured out and everything is way more obscure to where you actually have to be some Uber nerd/obsessed with real old school shit to figure them out. Not to mention that Wade went off the deep end when he fled IOI and was surpassed in the leaderboard.

    Couple things about this movie:
    1. In the books you logged into the oasis with your retinas, making you only be able to have 1 account. attempting to spoof it got you perma banned. (Just got further into the video and remembered the Nolan password part, so ig they changed that in the movies)
    2. In the books hollidude is confirmed to be dead, but the movie’s strayed sooo far from the books that they could’ve entirely changed it
    3. In short, they strayed so far from the books that any explanation I give is probably wrong in the movies.

    The reason they went for Adventure as the final key is after Atari's acquisition by Warner in 1976, Atari removed the names of game developers from their products, as a means to prevent competitors from identifying and recruiting Atari's programmers.This also was used as means to deny the developers a bargaining chip in any negotiations. This lead developer Warren Robinett to hide his own name into the game Adventure (1980) in what is now considered "The first easter egg in gaming" as a act of rebellion.
    When Warner made the movie Ready Player One (2018) they stated that Warren Robinet made the easter egg (a major plot point in the movie) because he just wanted people to have fun. Basically Warner did this purely to erase history because it wasn't even like that in the book.
    Also why Halliday avatar just didn't admit everything because he is indeed an AI with a plan to be free from OASIS, and he figured it's easier to wrestle control from hormonal teenagers than the entire Gregory Games. This came in the sequel BTW.

    11:29 The reason Wade wasn't seen by IOI surveillance isn't explained here, but in the book it's because he leaves through a window and down a less travelled route. The drones don't see him either because IOI planted the bombs far in advance in the book. Seemingly minor changes like these make the plot so unnecessarily convoluted and muddy.

      Sure, but you can estimate how long it would take a human to say run a mile to the bomb after their teammate calls out a bomb timer. And in this instance the main characters were in a fight, then rewound time in that same fight to an incorrect time. Nothing overlapping at all. Curious how IOI got there so fast also. Unless they always have 50 random people ready in lobby. Otherwise we see how long it takes wade to get in game after suiting up and waiting in a virtual line to get into the race in beginning.

Enough for 18 seconds? I dunno, I'd have to watch the scene myself to make that judgement, but saying "nothing overlapping at all" without any argument as to why that is AT ALL, does not convince me.
