I'm about 80% through the audio book now (first time "reading" the book), so I figured I'd bump this. I've seen the trailer several times during this read to see if I can pick up on anything that represents what is happening in the book.

This is a long-shot, but I'm hoping that what appears to be a race is just a quick thing in the movie showcasing the OASIS sixers and not an integral plot point. I'm at the point in the book where they go to Og's house before the battle, and I figured maybe there was a race after that, but it sounds like there isn't based on many of the posts in this thread. It could serve the purpose of showing all of the Sixers working in the same room while also demonstrating the power of the OASIS in an opening scene of the movie and serving as eye-candy for the trailer. I seriously doubt it, but that's my hope anyways.

Someone mentioned that it didn't look like the Asian brothers were going to be featured, but I looked at the IMDB cast list a while back and it definitely showed either one or both of them in the cast. I can't remember.

Great book that i have read several times. There is no race in the book. I am really hoping they don't screw this movie up.
