    Why do people dislike the book so much? I liked it

      It's not bad it just has things that you have no idea why they're there, like the chick Sonny fricks at the wedding that keeps showing up again and again and again

      The extra stuff (in the book) about Luca Brasi killing his baby was kind of cool.

      Luca's actor was fricking terrible, no way he could have pulled it off anyway.

          I think Puzo couldn't bring a woman to orgasm and she's his coping character
          >no man could ever satisfy her cause her pussy was too big
          >and then she has pussy corrective surgery and lived happily ever after
          wonder how long he was harping on his wife to get her pussy fixed

      because it has too much exposition, often repeating the same exposition multiple times as if it's a profound observation or something

      Serious answer? Ignoring the coomer subplot, it's aimless. It lacks focus, like a person rambling while trying to tell a story and not getting to the point. It drags on unnecessarily with throwaway mini-narratives that don't contribute much in the end. Perhaps the intent was to make the world seem larger, more alive, but it doesn't work in the context of a linear story. An open-world video game suits that kind of "filler" storytelling much better. I also found the prose to be dry and not very imaginative, like a boilerplate detective novel.

    The Thing is also much better than the original novella

      Ghost in the Shell movie is also better than the manga (which was written by a hentai artist so you can already tell it's trashy)

        If you hadn't added that your bait would be better.

    like a quarter of the book is about lucy mancini's loose pussy, it's bizarre

      her loose pussy is literally a whole character arc
      >has some structure problem with her pussy making it loose
      >sonny's hog is the only thing that she can feel
      >so she falls in love with him
      >gets mob connections from him seeing her so much
      >but then he dies and she's heartbroken
      >will she ever find a hog for her cavernous pussy again?
      >can't remember how, maybe through mob connections protecting her or sending her someplace after sonny's death, she meets another guy who is plastic surgeon
      >she likes him, but feels embarrassed because of her abysmal vegana neither of them feel anything during sex
      >he tells her he can perform reconstructive surgery to give her a normal pussy
      >gets surgery
      >instead of having to find another sonny, she is now a normal girl with a normal vegana and is suitable to date anyone
      there's probably some allegorical message here about women and mob life puzo was going for. he did say "i'm going to write a bestseller now" and then wrote the godfather, so i guess he knew what he was doing. does seem odd to have this whole storyline be a signficant part in your mafia book though

    who cares
    Fools Die is Mario Puzo's masterpiece, and there are no movies about it

    Mario Puzo was later hired to do a draft of the Superman script.
    He wanted it to be a crossover with Kojak

      he was a stunt hire, they basically rewrote every idea he came up with, they just wanted his name on the script so they could lure in more investors and talent

    Because he worked alongside Mario Puzo, the movie is basically the final version of the book.

    Puzo wasn't a fan of writing about the Mafia, but his first two books while they were received favourably by the critics, they were commercial failures.

      I read that he didn't actually know anything about the Mafia, he made shit up. And now mafiosos emulate the Godfather, funny how that works.

        That’s why the movie is so good though, because the Corleones act like a noble family in renaissance Italy instead of actual mobsters.
