I just watched How to Train Your Dragon and I thought it was excellent.

But then I read reviews. People have said it ruins the books and turns them into a generic coming-of-age plot, and also if you liken Hiccup to an autistic person, it describes how society shits on autistic people and glorifies them when they exhibit savant like moments.

I haven’t seen this movie or read this book, however I enjoy other perspectives on art. It actually helps solidify your opinion in some cases or it can open your eyes to ideas you might not have considered.

Ryan Adams is cool. He does a good Wonderwall

New York, New York is my favourite.
