""The misconception about children's fiction is that it's lightweight or fluffy"
I would have chosen to say "the American perception about..."
After all, it's the American's who invented a kids doll that holds guns, but then told the kiddies through TV series they weren't allowed to shoot anyone with them (GI JOE)."
""Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun."
The idea of the galaxy having an unfashionable side always made me laugh..."
"@MrBionic: wait for 20 years when all these "protected" children hit adult-hood and go into mother-lovin' shock.

"What does this have, Sim faithful, that would make me want to drop whatever other Sims game I happen to be currently playing?

"@sc00t420: But they said that about Oblivion after people complained about the world and NPCs in Morrowind.

@Waterhouse:
I reckon if you were to nuke a town in America - nowhere big mind you, just a little place no one has heard of - that in 20 to 30 years that American artists would also be making similar film and comic to the Japanese.

"Wow, so under Matt Booty's leadership Midway have gone from "lets make everything free roaming coz GTA sold so well" to "lets make everything minigames because Wii Play sold so well".
Excellent game plan, Mr Booty, considering the first worked so well for you..."
"I'm sick of the press making everything out as a conflict.
I realise that Kotaku was born from newspaper journalists desire to write about videogames, but you're on the intrawebs now, you don't need to compete with other tabloids and you don't need to write conflict into every story.
There's heaps of respect for gaming developers within the community, and for people to claim every little comment is an attack on another is growing old."
"I guarantee in 15-20 years time, there will be a massive Naruto and Sailor Moon comeback and movie studios will be clambering over themselves to buy anime properties to re-imagine for TV or Movies."
