Yeah, I mean I went into the movie absolutely ready to hate the gently caress out of it, but I came away like, eh. I've seen worse movies. It's Spielberg, so the low bar is actually fairly high for a poo poo-film, and the constant cavalcade of bullshit references at least is just more going on on the screen in a movie, it's not as bad as in book form where you HAVE to look at it all. It has some spectacle to it.

I don't think it's good, but I don't think it's in the same league of bad as the book by any stretch.

I can understand someone saying they liked the film. While I disagree, I can at least respect that opinion. The book on the other hand... I find absolutely loving mind boggling. I have many friends who claim "the audio book is good" and I just have to not ever be in the same room when it comes up because... What the actual gently caress. I haven't read worse books.
