Sometimes the Internet stinks…

… And sometimes it shines.

Finding Victor Davis Hanson, Frank Miller and Bill Whittle discussing actors and the movie industry in the same thread.

Now I could definitely find worse ways to start the day.

(Scroll down the comments for Miller and Whittle)

UPDATE:

Oh and, if by any chance Frank Miller was to read this: please Sir, drop the bloody “creative” agency who put up that unserviceable excuse for a blog in Flash—a plague that unfortunately affects just about every movie site these days.

Using Flash to power a blog is like standing at the Hot Gates hoping to stop Xerxes’ millions only armed with a feather duster and the complete work of Jean-Paul Sartre, and you are losing all the benefits of the networking effect induced by any decent blogging application*.

I’ll build you a blog Frank—Hope you don’t mind me calling you Frank, Mr Miller Sir—Just ask.

* Case in point: I couldn’t link to any entry of interest in your “blog” from this very post. For one thing because I couldn’t read any of them entirely: the display is broken—very frustrating, considering how interested I am in what you have to say—But also because there are no darn permanent links to grab in the first place.
