What's with the weird Wad Watts question at the end? "What are you?" Holladay is not a simulation? Is this a hint to a sequel?

Please cite your evidence.
Saw it. It was definitely mostly fun. But I felt there were a few tragic plot holes in the movie.
First off, they could have spent more time just using 80's music to carry the plot, Instead of bringing in the orchestral score to tell us how we should feel. Frikking annoying though I enjoyed the tunes they used.
Next the drones carrying in flashing bombs to destroy Wade's aunt's stack. While I guess drones are ubiquitous in the future, don't you figure someone would have noticed drones flying around with flashing limpet mines landing all over the superstructure of the stack? kinda shows that the director thinks the audience is not paying attention.
What the hell was all the cryptic talk about the "resistance" when Wade first meets Samantha and never a mention about it again?
For those who read the book first:
For all the elaborate back story buildup with Wade Narrating, why delete the highschool aspect of the storyline? And why after saying years had passed since Halliday's death and his first announcement of the easter egg hunt, why try to crunch the entire story into what seemed like less than 3 days?
I could continue..
It wasn't polite to say it in the first place, why start now? Whole thing seems kinda....douchey.I'll politely decline the request and simply say that my opinion stands as stated.

Reading some of the replies in this thread leads me to believe some of you guys are total buzzkills. Like everyone walks around in the real world with wedgies. I smiled through most of the movie letting my inner child enjoy the nostalgia and watching my kids have the same appreaciation as I. Even the wife enjoyed it which is rare.
So you're saying any critical thought on any movie is just whining, huh? Seem kinda Vacuous. I also enjoyed the movie, as I have enjoyed many movies, and standing alone this movie had plot holes.
I am happy that you bonded with your wife over a B rate movie.
