WRT to the Michael Bay-onisation of TMNT, this is what I have to say: if YOU don't like it, then DON'T WATCH IT! It's as simple as that.

With that said, I think the space alien origin reboot is retarded, and I'm definitely NOT gonna watch that sh*t. (Now while I'm at it, Transformers was retarded too.)

IN OTHER NEWS: why are so many of my favourite comic book writers and artists bald? Is there some kind of as-yet-undiscovered link between hairlessness and creativity? I hope not. My girlfriend keeps telling me my hair is thinning. I think that's absolute fugging rubbish. But I do feel a slight apprehension that perhaps I am not, as the numbers creep up on me, as creative as I was before...? I have tons and tons of cool and interesting ideas. I just haven't put any of them down on paper yet (hindered, as I am, with the suspicion that they will lose some of their coolness and interestingness in the transition.) But......I really oughta get sh*t done. Before the juice runs out. If it ever does.
