🎮 Step into the Oasis with Nerds Against Normality! 🎬
This week, we’re diving headfirst into Steven Spielberg’s pop-culture juggernaut, Ready Player One — a cinematic Easter egg hunt packed with video game icons, movie legends, and enough ‘80s nostalgia to overload your flux capacitor. But is this virtual thrill ride a masterpiece of fan service or just an overstuffed CGI arcade machine?
Join us as we break down:
🎯 The good, the bad, and the glitchy in the Oasis
🕹️ How the book’s cameos compare to the movie’s deep-cut references
📽️ Spielberg’s magic vs. modern blockbuster chaos
👾 Which pop-culture references made us cheer — and which ones made us cringe
Whether you’re a retro gaming fanatic, a movie trivia addict, or just here for the nerdy banter, this episode will have you laughing, debating, and maybe even yelling at your headphones.
