Not agreeing or disagreeing with him.

And I would say he has written some good titles in the past thirty years. At least Hollywood has thought enough of him to invest a few hundred million dollars into his work.

I'd be very hesitant to call things like All-Star Batman and Robin 'good' is all I'm saying :) .

I definitely don't agree with him there, but I've read Dark Knight Returns, and honestly I'm not surprised at his stance.

That's completely fair, and I agree. But in 30 years of Miller, he's written some incredible stuff. And not just writing, but creating storyboards too.

I'm definitely not saying that he hasn't written good stuff, because he definitely has, no doubt about it. Batman: Year One is probably my favorite Batman story, and what little I've read of Sin City was excellent too, but yeah.

You know what I mean.

He thinks they are a bunch of rapists so he implores them to joing the army.

Bonus points for using a geek stereotype.

To any one that's played both games... How long, approximately, does it take to complete Majora's Mask in comparison to Ocarina of Time? About the same amount of time? Shorter, longer?

If you do all the sidequests, which I recommend, expect it to take similar lengths of time, if not longer. If you only go through the main game, its a little shorter.
