Jazz is ageless, but Pitbull's bilingual rap will fade away fast. I
mean...call me old fashioned, but I just feel that the music should fit the
time period that the film is portraying. I don't want to be a music purist
saying "Oh, today's music is trash. I wish I lived in the 80's when they
had REAL music" but I do think that jazz is more appropriate. I'm allowed
to have a little bias, and I like jazz. Actually, I used to be kind of an
opposite music purist; a few years ago I thought that techno (and by
extension dubstep) was 'the music of the future' and encouraged everyone
around me to listen to it. ...As you can probably guess, I didn't have that
many friends.
There's no natural way to convey that you want to eliminate people either,
really. The fact that Mikami refers to it as that shows how much his sense
of justice is overplayed to the point of abnormality (he kind of reminds me
of Tosen from Bleach) so all of those variants,
"erase"/"eliminate"/"delete" all make it sound like there's no consequences
from killing criminals. "Killing" them implies that although they're dead,
they leave behind memories, mysteries, legacies, etc. whereas "eliminating"
them removes them from life in general, as though surgically removed from
Earth. I didn't really like the second half of Death Note...but yeah, the
dub makes Light sound like a pedophile.
Huh, "merry" does sound cool if you think about it. It's like, not only
happy or even lively, but denotes having fun and being in a good mood (and
who wouldn't want to have fun and be in a good mood?) She's right; we all
should be merry.
Some readers should be blockaded, though! Granted, you don't have any
obnoxious regular commenters here that throw misspelled criticisms your way
but if you did people like that are hard to reason with. That's another
reason why Shiki's obscurity is good; the obnoxious fans who are in it for
the bishonens wouldn't be interested in a novel that has a focus apart from
said bishonens. Not that I don't like bishonens, but at least you don't
have to deal with that.
