On Sunday night, Steven Spielberg held a premiere for
Ready Player One
at SXSW, and the majority of those who attended the event enjoyed the film and praised Spielberg for his brilliant direction. Ernie Cline's novel was amazing and I'm glad that Spielberg didn't disappoint the fans at SXSW. At one point during the premiere, the sound broke while a key battle scene was going on, and some even joked that the speakers couldn't handle the awesomeness of the film.
Many are praising the film's geek/pop culture wonders full of joy and thrills. Just check out what the fans are saying via Twitter:
