there are subtle nuances in every single one of those EXCELSIORS, I'll have you LOL

Batman Returns, and the Dark Knight are all better than their predecessors

these are interesting cases. both of the batman sequels are longer, more ambitious and much more interesting than their predecessors. otoh, they're both a bit shapeless, narratively. i do like them better than what they followed, though they're both messes with GREAT detailing.

"to lionize" = to treat as a celebrity or cause for celebrity.
it's even the wrong word - it should really only be used to talk about people, not things. whatever, figurative usage.
are you lionizing, or attempting to lionize this album?
if yes, then you can take umbrage at my scoffing at your motives for lionization, but i didn't suggest how or why you were listening to it.
if no, then the criticism should not concern you.
if you're really dying to get that last nail into the cross, then go for it.
why do people lionize, or feel the desire to lionize anything?
releasing audio noodling on commodifiable formats is hardly classifiable as philanthropy, now, is it?
ffs, you guys are as bad as michael jackson fans.

How's their live show nowadays? I am considering seeing them in Milwaukee but I'm not really sure what to expect or if it's even something I can enjoy. I feel like it's going to be the aural equivilent of banging my head against the wall but I kinda want to do it anyway.
