    Personally, I'm disappointed in their choice. Unless she gains weight for the role ... One of the he best parts about that character was that she didn't conform to Hollywood ideals of what a female should look like.

    That's really cool. I can't wait to see the movie when it comes out.

    Yes. Do I remember correctly that she was afraid for him to see her, afraid he would reject her? If so, then it's a big part of who they were. It made their first meeting especially sweet for me. I don't see how they could change that fact. However, I'm hoping to enjoy the film, regardless.

    @Epona That is exactly why this concerns me. It's core to their interactions. Makes me afraid that Spielberg doesn't really "get it."

    I'm sure Spielberg gets it, I just worry that he will want to appeal to a broader audience ($$$) who aren't necessarily fans of the story, instead of to those of us who are. I wonder if raising our voices would affect his decision?

    Adding: Set a precedent, Steven. Be true to art.

    It will depend a great deal on the makeup. And of course the rest of the cast. Wonder what the folks over at readyplayerone.com think.

    I think Ernie is smart enough to not want to bite the hand so to speak.
