    Bane comes from Santa Prisca.

    Top 3 Villains
    1. Joker – Kills with a smile. What can be more devious than that?
    2. The Man in Black (a.k.a. Randal Flagg, Marten Broadcloak) from the Stephen King’s The Stand, Dark Tower and other universes. The character is determined to bring pain and suffering to all of the universes that he crosses.
    3. Parker from the Parker Series by Richard Stark. No way you would want to cross him. If you do you cross Parker you will most likely end up dead.

    Well Tom, I am an artist in a few different fields and yes, when you put out a work of art, to ignore the audience’s role in the work is a self-defeating attitude. Ultimately, all works of art do not belong to the artist. Does Da Vinci have any say in how the Mona Lisa is presented? Can Monet reclaim his canvasses? Can Mozart resent a lesser orchestra’s performance of one of his pieces?

    I completely understand that Lucas is fully in his legal right to shit on his movies. He “owns” them. At least on paper he does. But art is bigger than it’s maker. The audience does play a key role in the interpretation of a work and to ignore this and just do what you please because it pleases you (though completely legal) is not necessarily an intelligent viewpoint of what makes a successful lifetime oeuvre.

    If you put art out there, only to yank it back to change it later, you do so recognizing the benefits and consequences of this. Because when it’s out there you implicitly agree to share philosophical ownership of the work with the audience.

    Lucas is in his legal right to change his movies, but it was stupid of him to insist on this right.

    Seem to be having issues listening to the ‘cast. It was working fine earlier, but not now.

    Oddly enough, the problem was all mine ;)
