Why is this a movie. WHY?

lovely garbage like foundation is already guaranteed 20 hour long episodes, but here all of hollywood's best and brightest are trying to cram a massive space history narrative into 150 minutes and change.
The concept of 'cinema' has never seemed more pointless and obsolete.

I'll come back to binge this show when it's finished. So, what then, never? This is a prologue in the guise of an event

Even as an adaptation it was pretty bland. Like, competently executed, but unimaginative. Too literal an adaptation, against Lynch's surrealism. I got nothing from Skarsgards Baron, and we barely get any time at all with the vast majority of the Duke's entourage - somehow the pacing is so hosed that the film feels rushed and cramped at the same time, blasting though plot necessities to go ultimately nowhere. The result is flat, bland, and shallow - a stage play stretched across a very obvious greenscreen.

I was pretty hyped for this, but I am deeply unconvinced.
