Live Action Akira

So apparently some white dudes are gonna end up cast for lead roles in the live action Akira remake. I don't really care who plays the role as long as they aren't robotic-moving, cold, dead, renditions of beloved characters; however, I think this may end up on par with Dragonball Evolution. That being said, why bother worrying about anything Hollywood is doing? Akira came out in 1988, it's so good that, after running out of ideas for better films over two decades later, gets a remodel for the next generation of humans. (I'm hoping at some point in my life to be known as part of the Pokémon Generation.)

You know that little voice in your head that everybody has?
I think mine's a mime.

Just some food for thought.

A True Hero.

Given the times that I had growing up reading comic books I often would wonder what a true hero was. To me, I liked the idea of a costumed do-gooder who stood for justice.

But in reality things are a little different. Here, one can only be a hero by using their means to hurt others.

I believe a true hero is one who does the greatest of good without hurting another.

A few months back I got a device that hooks up my guitar to my computer. It took a little while for me to figure it out, but I eventually started making recordings. Today I went back to listen to them. They're ridiculously identical. Every. Last. One. I can't seem to do anything original.

So I'm in a funk. Now what?

Well, logic can't really help, this is art. Art happens through inspiration. And that logic can help with.

But therein lies the problem. Where does one seek inspiration? Where the hell can I shop for a muse?
