I find it sad that popculture obsessed people can't watch anything older than the 70s and you know for a fact it's going to be because of The Godfather or A New Hope. It's a shame they won't watch pre-70s movies since there are some fantastic pieces of artwork.

All the things they feel like they missed in their life can be found in the 80s, routine, love, adventure, friends, communities, etc but still has their escapism and comfort of the modern world but not too much of it. Just look up many wave videos and read the comments.
XXXtentacion and others similar angry rappers are big today, for they convey the inner wrath the teens feel today, his new album was pretty emo though and that sort of music is coming back too. Lil xan, lil peep, etc because they're all miserable bags stimuli.
Sure, it will maybe be different in 2050 but the book is supposed to cater to modern teens. It's not a work of philosophy or some kind of future vision.

>Halliday is at a high-school dance being held in a large gymnasium. He’s surrounded by teenagers whose clothing, hairstyles, and dance moves all indicate that the time period is the late 1980s.* Halliday is dancing, too— something no one ever saw him do in real life. Grinning maniacally, he spins in rapid circles, swinging his arms and head in time with the song, flawlessly cycling through several signature ’80s dance moves. But Halliday has no dance partner. He is, as the saying goes, dancing with himself.

I think its popularity says a lot about the culture that it feeds. Infantilization and escapism are not just present, but celebrated and upheld as something that makes you special and heroic. A horrifying stagnation of culture and art that wipes away any value of the things it references and instead uses them as hollow signals, setpieces, and sinks of mindless trivia. For fuck's sake, the movie used the Iron Giant as a big fighting mech with no commentary on the irony there.

Your analogy is scarily spot on.

Not much. Idolizing Hideo Kojima as God means ignoring the influence of Richard Dawkins' concept of memetics in his body of work, which is a good sign that line was written with a hint of irony.

I read this book in 2012 or 2013. It was so fucking boring. Seriously just a ton of references to random shitty 80's pop culture people/events. The only cool thing about it was the concept of a completely immersive VR system, but that's hardly revolutionary,

The latter from what I've seen. The former is a pretty inoffensive children's series, whereas RP1 looks like a non-stop pander-fest with absolutely horrible writing.

look buddy if a post saying Ready Player One is "the only [book] that's ever made me excited" gets +1519, then I can say a big lot of users there tolerate it, and apathy for such a bad book is inexcusable.
