Hmm.... I've heard so much about this being the "greatest Batman and/or Joker comic ever written" and I'm left here like, ohhhhkkkaaaay, so what? The art is fantastic, but the story? I feel like it went nowhere. Or maybe just circled around. I don't know, but it was a major disappointment. I understand the parallels between The Joker and Batman, but the execution just wasn't there. I felt there was no humanity, and frankly it all felt very ho-hum and I felt no shock, no sadness or anger, or anything, just absolutely no emotions at all really.

"It’s one of the most influential records ever, on me. I’ve talked about it many times. I always feel duty bound to ram it home, what an amazing achievement to get so much Marxist anger into an album, which is actually really delicately played. People always accuse them of being Smiths copyists but it’s much faster, stuff like ‘Antinature’ and ‘The Well Of Loneliness,’ ‘An MP Speaks’, it’s a seamless album that can grind you into submission, like all good communists should. Brilliant cover as well. Of all my records this is definitely my most played piece of vinyl."

DID YOU PUT YOUR NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIRE?!?!
Um, what happend here? Dumbledore. Does. Not. Shout! His insanely calm under pressure attitude is such a trigger for Harry later, and this one ridiculous display of anger undermines a character we have been understanding for three years.
Rushed plot aside (its double the size of the last book!) it feels like it is missing a lot of heart and soul, and elements make no sense.
It was a disappointment to say the least, and compared to the others, I think the weakest one.

Ugh, I'm having a hard time writing a review for this mini-series. I really liked it, enjoyed is not a great descriptor. You know a show is good when it sticks with you. It honestly has invoked a lot of anger within me about the entire situation. I can't even type that d-bag's name.
These situations are horrifying, the Palm Beach area is one I've visited a ton because i have family in that area (not the super bourgeoisie area). It's disgusting how the girls were taken advantage of, and it's making me angry again thinking about it.
