HoL was cool. But once you’ve experienced the fireworks it’s not really that memorable. It’s built to impress and its actual substance is rather mediocre.

Rereading/rewatching has become a measure of quality for me.

If a novel is worth to reread then it was actually very good. And nobody remembers a book page by page—there’s always something new to find. Your perspective may also have changed since you first read it.
