You're mistaking the point of a (notionally) narrative medium. It doesn't HAVE to be linear storytelling.

Difficult texts are their own reward. Not everything has to spoon-feed you the plot. And enjoying things like a Lynch film doesn't mean you don't also enjoy highly conventional narratives like the aforementioned Marvel films.
