Personally I love reading novels of worlds that have no basis in reality. I also love authors that repeat themselves over and over because I have memory issues and can't remember the last sentence I've read.

Oh, and I also love reading novels of worlds that have no basis in reality.

Yeah, honestly, I don’t mind reading novels that argue points I disagree with, but the repetitiveness is unbelievable. One of the reasons John Galt’s 60 page speech is so intolerable is that all of the points he makes in it had already been made two or three times before.

Does he actually have a speech, that lasts 60 God damn pages?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Yes. And I really hope whoever shelled out cash to see the Atlas Shrugged 3 movie had to sit through every agonizing second of it on screen.

If it wasn't it sure as heck felt like 60 pages.
