Episode 26: Ready Player One (Book and Film)

In an attempt to be more current and contemporary we review another recent film and book.  READY PLAYER ONE by Ernest Cline.  The book was published in 2011 it takes place in a dystopian society where people spend a lot of time in virtual reality, in order to avoid the real run-down world.  The book is Cline's first published novel.  Steven Spielberg takes the material in a slightly different direction as he brings it to the big screen.  We compare the two on the show today.
