I feel this way about Alan Moore's Jerusalem. I found a hard copy at a thrift store a couple of years ago and it literally ways as much as a brick.

I picked this up and it’s good but it’s extremely alan moore and it just keeps introducing new characters and giving them 100 pages of backstory, sometimes the same backstory as another character whose backstory you just read

the version I got is 3 volumes and I finished the first and like 5 actual things happen

One of my coworkers borrowed it a while back and gave it back to me a week later saying it was like reading a more convoluted version of "From Hell".

I think i'm like 1/4th of the way through and the only portion I can remember is about the stone mason who interacts with god.

i finished narcos mexico. tried money heist, but it's not very good and apparently never actually gets to the next heist or whatever (from looking at episode synopses). so i'm probably gonna watch le cercle rouge or something like that next

it's worse cause it doesn't have any of the magical realism stuff that makes John Wick fun (also cmon he's just not nearly as good at action as Keanu)

this is gonna suck but its such a good idea from disney given how theaters are gonna die and with it goes the $2 bil blockbuster. instead of a few huge budget movies, you make a bunch of smaller budget shows that in the past would have been low/mid budget movies. lower risk across the board and higher efficiencies from shared production and distribution.

I thought it was a fan photoshop and/or parody.

Partly because my dyslexic-rear end brain read it as The Bad Bitch and thought maybe it was a gag based around Samuel L Jackson playing a character in The Star War.

Which actually sounds better than the real thing tbh
