HAPPY PI DAY!
(soundtrack to the movie Pi. oh, stfu, just download it; it's awesome. mellow jazzy electronica-trance. YOU WILL LIKE IT.)
p.s. it's .m4a

oatmeal, and aleve, then back to bed, then a shower, then maybe I'll get a life. but probably not.




(in unrelated news, I REALLY HATE FRANK MILLER. D: )

Pi Day (http://www.exploratorium.edu/learning_studio/pi/), or Miller (http://community.livejournal.com/scans_daily/1577232.html#cutid1)?

see, I have total support for Sin City. the man's a great writer of his own stuff. and TDKR was also pretty awesome. but lately, especially with his run on All-Star Batman and Robin, the man is ... well, that's just bad writing. plain and simple. and I gave him the benefit of the doubt for books 1&2, thinking he was making some sort of ... doing something with the apparent out-of-character writing, but then. book 3 ... sucked. and basically. I'm still hoping it's all a joke or commentary on the industry or something. because man, I do not want to take that sludge seriously.

example: that purple thing I linked to? that's "Batgirl", on the June cover for ASBAR. *wince*

you keep that dirty old misogynist away from my Batman stories, thanks.

yeah he has his thing with Sin City. but GOD, ASBAR* SUCKS ROCKS. basically, he started ruining Batman and writing like shit after TDKR -- i.e. just in time for TDKSB -- and... argh. ARGH.


*All-Star Batman and Robin

Whoa... I just read the summary of TDKSA... What kind of crap is that? Bleh. Blehblehblehbleh.

I'll just stick to my happy-go-lucky (though often brutally violent and angsty) slash-tinted world of Batman Begins.

I'll have to ask my Batman comic pals what they think of all this.

most of my comics-reading friends, both male and female, are of a similar opinion. and note: I'm not saying I don't respect what Miller's done. just... not what he's done lately. *grimace*

I talked to my husband last night and he basically reiterated everything you complained about!
