Any modern works of literature that “get” and incorporate the internet well?

Spree was unwatchable.

We’re All Going to the Worlds Fair had some solid stylistic choices and moments but never really materialized into a substantive and cogent narrative for which to ground itself. I hope it will serve as a solid foundation for other films in the future that draw inspiration from niche internet subcultures and the essence of what it was like to slip into this other world at such a young age.

Nah, Spree was great. Give it 20 years and you will worship it as an exploitation masterpiece, like you do with 70/80s american independent horror and Italian euro sleaze.

No, it was bad and a poor representation of the culture it was parodying. Refn did it better.
