Place your random thoughts.

Imagine if you will, that you grew up on Batman: The Animated Series, on the grittier, post-Dark Knight Returns Batman comics, where Batman isn't the bright and colorful, one-liner spitting swashbuckler in Batman Forever and Batman & Robin. Imagine if you will, that watching the '90s Batman cartoon, you want a Batman in a setting closer to detective noir, or even a Batman that uses psychological intimidation against criminals the way he did in that legendary cartoon and those comic books.

And then imagine, in 2005, you saw this:

Holy. Freaking. Crap.

A lot of people loved The Dark Knight, me included, but Batman Begins was the one that really made Batman feel like Batman the psychological dark hero for the first time in years (possibly even for the first time on the big screen, as Keaton's Batman still felt kinda generic and lacked the mind games that Batman just loves to play with criminals).

A lot of people wonder what the big deal is with Nolan's Batman, and that, my friends, is the big deal. He gave us Batman that felt like Batman for the first time.
 
Today at work is either going to be either amazing or terrible. No in between. Ugh. The chances of it being amazing though are surprisingly good…
 
I’m really bored-hungry. I would want a little snack, but I don’t really like eating before bed.

edit: I had some cornbread crisps 😅

It’s weird how I’ll go ages without any motivation to write and then suddenly I’m full of creative ideas in bed.

Found this in a YouTube comment. Edited it for clarity.

A: "Hey, what are you watching?"
B: “It’s about a man whose wife was brutally murdered, and whose disabled son was kidnapped several years later. In order to find his son, he must get the help of a mentally disabled woman and travel across the entire world.”
A: “Wow that’s dark. What’s it called?”
B: “Finding Nemo.”
 
How the heck did this scene get deleted?! Just how?! I've seen my share of deleted scenes, and those I could agree that they needed to be cut down for better pacing, but dang, this scene right here would've given The Incredibles 2 the somber depth it needed (instead of a generic mess halfheartedly trying to say something about social media but also doesn't).

Also, I love how this scene pretty much made the Supers feel like retired war veterans just trying to fit into society again and feel relevant again. It's so melancholic, sincere and moving that it's a heinous crime to have cut out such a brilliant scene.
 
the musician's process of listening to Mozart's sonata-form pieces:

Amateur: "I don't understand this piece, it's boring and I don't like it."
Young college student: "I'm starting to understand this piece, the form is very interesting and precise, I like it."
Professional: "I understand this piece, it's boring and I don't like it."

(for context, Mozart's sonata form pieces are incredibly predictable, practically copy-and-paste. once you've heard one you've basically heard them all lmao)
