tcpipWent to IMAX for the first time last week to see "300". As the thread on RPG.net suggestsit really isn't good at all (my summary is probably on the last page). Also recently saw The Notorious Bettie Page. Visually cute, it included some excellent thematic considerations and then utterly failed to elaborate on them.
Unitarian service last Sunday was poetry, readings and folk music. As is my norm, I selected Unitarian poets and authors, specifically, Horatio Alger, Ambrose Bierce, ee cummings, and Kurt Vonnegut Jnr.
Easter Sunday was spent, as per last year, playing GURPS Bunnies & Burrows. The Fellowship of Talor journeys in the eleventh scene for HeroQuest. Have managed to convince![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
imajica_lj to run Call of Cthulhu in the near future.
Went a bit nuts on the weekend buying music: Johnny Cash, Velvet Underground, Hawkwind, Gang of Four, Devo, China Crisis, Eels, Elysium. No one can claim I don't have a variety of tastes. Have made a start on the small moutain of books sent to me by Ticonderoga; a seven-part space opera by Kevin J. Anderson. Also should mention that my review of Blackbeard: The real pirate of the Caribbean is available in the latest issue.
Cocktail party for Friday night is shaping up very nicely indeed.

In short, the things I know of that Frank Miller did before about 1990 (TDKR, Batman: Year One, and his Daredevil run being the main examples) were all superb if dark. Since 1990, I can't think of anything he's done that I'd call good.
Was he responsible for A Death in the Family as well?
No.
