Dealing with being irked--an exercise in fighting fire with fire... saidarisnowtainted Send a noteboard - 06/05/2010 01:58:04 AM
first and foremost i know i'm not the only person to complain about the cover art. i'm sure someone above on this page already mentioned it.

i HAVE to throw in my 2 cents. The cover art hovers in and around the top of this list for me.

However, in a really campy way sort of way, the art deserves so much scorn that i've learned to appreciate how bad it is I mean really--each cover is unique in it's misery.

ToM didnt fail me. who's that guy in the middle? Who knows! but it's probably someone we know, yet depicted terribly. Are you SURE Mat's the one with the knife?

i digress-back to my point--being my spiteful self i would LOVE to force the powers that be to make, and force all of us to watch, an ANIMATED MOVIE -- IN THE EXACT SAME STYLE. Old school and ugly.

I agree - IRL I often notice that it's less "men" vs "women", and moreso personality clashes. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 31/03/2010 02:45:16 PM 939 Views

I've always wondered why RJ didn't try to develop this theme ... Yondaime - 01/04/2010 06:10:23 PM 1004 Views
It's less of a theme and more like a case of mental derangement RugbyPlayingAshaman - 01/04/2010 09:04:58 PM 932 Views
it's even more frustrating that it started to be used for a while darius_sedai - 08/04/2010 11:51:42 AM 958 Views
