Has anyone else kind of "peaked" in terms of what you want from TV/movies?

It's just that it's poorly written and far more pleased with itself, in spite of being poorly written, than it has any right to be.

And yes, I partially include "The Dark Knight Returns" in that. It is NOT anywhere near as good as people say it is. "Year One", however, is pretty much perfect. He did right with that one.

But it's not the tone that's the problem. It's that the writer is a narcissist who really, really wants you to agree with them that they're the first writer who ever had a good idea.

Sure. Year One is pretty good, however, tell that to Selina Kyle and Barbara Gordon. One is posing as a prostitute and the other conveniently forgotten to exist.
