JCC Ready Player One, Art3mis ...

Olivia Cooke Is Playing Art3mis,

My biggest problem wasn't Art3mis Black and also over weight? I will still see the movie but what gives?

 

No. Artemis was the love interest with the port wine birthmark. Aech is the overweight black lesbian.

 

Asked and answered. Lock it up.

 

yea I was wrong on that but she was over weight, or as the book called her rubenesque. 1 out of 2 been a while since I read it a couple of books back my bad,
thank you both for setting me straight on her not being black though. I would have put it in the movie thread but it is buried on the board, I will try to look again.

 

All good. Do Ghost In the Shell next.

 

Not overweight but over weight. So overweight they are totally over the concept of weight.

 

Ernest Cline is the literary equivalent of Max Landis.

 

Every indication I've heard is that the novel on which this book is based is infantile, poorly plotted, and derivative enough to make JJ Abrams look like Wassily Kandinsky.

 

So Kate Beckinsale can play her then?

 

You've heard right.

 

Is derivative the new phrase du jour for media we don't like? Cause as much as I like math terms going places....

 

Isaac Newton wasn't even born until 1642, whereas it has been part of the English language since the early 15th century, so I'm pretty sure mathematics is the domain borrowing the word, not vice versa.

 

So
