For anyone who's pretty deep in the book (I'm like 3 chapters from finishing) - does it seem like Mr. Cline might have found religion between these two books? I might be reading between the lines too much, but look at this: Sonic and Wade raced across the rooftops, Wade doing his best to keep up with Sonic the Hedgehog. Sonic was obviously holding back. "C'mon Wade! You can be faster than that! If you believe in the Lord, all things are possible!" "You're right, Sonic, but I don't think even Asahel, David's nephew, is as fast as you! For he was simply as swift-footed as the gazelle!" Sonic wagged his finger at Wade. "Heh heh, and we both know I'm a lot faster than any gazelle! Let's go, Lex Luthor and Jason Vorhees are about to activate the mind-control ray that will let them take over the entire digital world!" "Praise Christ, the King of Kings!" "Yeah yeah, Praise Christ! But I wonder if He ever made some chili dogs for his disciples!" Wade and Sonic both laughed at that.

"Quickly, you need to reverse -" Wade cut off 3rd Doctor. "Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow, right?" "Yes, of course, but how did you -? Oh, no matter, let's finish this thing once and for all!" The 3rd Doctor and Wade flipped the switches on their twin proton packs, turning the stream of energy from orange to green. They slowly began to move the streams closer together. Although Egon had warned of the danger, it was the only way to stop this monster. As the streams almost crossed, Wade felt the proton pack begin to violently shake, almost threatening to explode on his back. "C'mon kid, you can do this!" yelled Han Solo and Indiana Jones together. As the beams crossed, Wade felt a calming hand on his shoulder. He turned around, it was Bob Falfa from American Graffiti. From behind him came Rick Deckard from Blade Runner, Richard Kimble from the movie version of The Fugitive, and President James Marshall from Air Force One. They all started clapping and cheering - the Legion of Fords was reunited again, as the prophecy had foretold. Wade let out a powerful scream and he and the 3rd Doctor crossed the streams right in front of Pazuzu from the Exorcist. "Burn in Hell, you monster!" Cried out He-man, still grieving over the death of Optimus Prime at the hands of the demon.

Im not sure how Cline got away with having Bigby Wolf recite his speech about Israel from the comic Fables issue #50 verbatim but it seemed to be really out of place and in poor taste, especially when Bigby then accused Yakko Wsrner of being an anti-semite just for acknowledging the existence of Palestine in the song Yakko's World (which was also reprinted in its entirety, does Cline pay licensing fees?)

Wade could barely contain his aching pokeballs. Aunt Jemima's lips had barely locked around his tiny dong when the kool-aid man broke through the wall, and, behind him, at a full boil, was Uncle Ben. Wade knew it would be on in a hot-minute(rice).

For anyone else who's finished this, what did you think about : the big reveal that there's a second OASIS accessible through the original OASIS, but that you can only get to it by reciting the entirety of Monty Python and the Holy Grail? And that 2.0 is just like the original OASIS except you get access to super cool stuff for your avatar like new sunglasses and hats And, more importantly, the teaser that: Aliens have access to OASIS 2.0 and Wade at the end gets 3 messages - "Phone Home", "Hello, my name is Jor-el", and "May the force be wtih you"? This seems to confirm that there is a REAL version of all these pop culture characters I love and use in place of a personality, so I'm excited to see where the 3rd book goes!

So since the book got made into a movie by Warner Pictures™, does the sequel concentrate on referencing IP owned by WarnerMedia™'s fine subsidiary brands, like Batman™, Bugs Bunny™, and The CW's Supernatural™?

There's a really good, if not a little strange, chapter in which Bugs Bunny contemplates the reality of being a 2 dimensional character in a 3 dimensional space, then extrapolates that out further to eventually picture a 12th dimensional being that could be considered God. It doesn't have a ton of relevance on the plot but it kind of enhances the themes of the book. I'd also love to see a Funko Pop! version of this scene! One of those cool dioramas they make.

I might have to hate-read this. I can believe how much mileage they're getting out of the rule of cool with how much other franchises depend on it (star wars, wh40k, etc.) but ready player one struck me as basically just, "wouldn't it be cool if [insert pop culture reference] had to team up with [insert pop culture reference] and fight [insert pop culture reference] and then there's also some [insert pop culture reference] going on?"

But it's not even just that - it's also just the first line of wikipedia articles describing what those things are. FOR MOST THINGS REFERENCED. Like if you took out the bulk of the needless references and just literal text on the page being "this thing is like this" the first book would be about 25 pages long.

I read the first book before finding out the broad consensus about it, and I was originally convinced that it was like American Psycho, written from the perspective of a self-centered protagonist who doesn't get just how terrible the world outside has become thanks to universal Oasis addiction. With RP2, it turns out that the first was actually a wholehearted endorsement of this societal malady
