American productions don't allow for normie women; they all have to look like rock stars.
Kathy Bates went for an audition for the Sylvester Stallone movie, 'Paradise Alley.' She told Stallone she'd read the script and every single woman was described as 'beautiful.'
Another story I like. I saw "Erin Brockovich" with Julia Roberts. At one point in the movie Roberts interacts with a beautiful waitress. I rolled my eyes but at the end of the movie I checked the credits. The waitress was a cameo by the real Erin Brockovich.
It's especially gross in something like ready player one. I know it's already a shit ass movie, but in the book, i'm pretty sure the people are described as pretty normal or uglier and fatter. The love interest is supposed to be "ugly" and they casted a beautiful woman and drew a scar on her face. But not an ugly scar, because someone might not be able to jerk off to her. Or game of thrones. No one is really as ugly as they are supposed to be.
