Curiosities Abound, But I’m Hopeful It’ll Be AWESOME!!!

BIZZAM!!

I’m not 100% sure if I have made my feelings clear on this Superman reboot, titled Man of Steel.  I am not sold.  I’m not sure about the costume, and I’m certainly not sure about Henry Cavill (Immortals, Blood Creek).  While I feel that Zack Snyder (Dawn of the Dead, Sucker Punch) has it in him to make a good Superman film, I’m not sure if he has it in him to make a GREAT Superman film.

After watching the trailer for Man of Steel, I liked the fact that Snyder seems to be going along a more subdued route instead of his flashy speed up/slow down style.  The trailer, while not showing, well, anything, really, is a lot more subdued, and upon watching it again it reminds me of a Michael Bay (Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Pearl Harbor) trailer.  This…

1995.

T’Was A Very Odd Year, Fo SHO, My Peeps.

When The Album…

MELLON COLLIE AND THE INFINITE SADNESS

…Was Released, I Was A Sophomore In High School.

I Was Struggling With The Oddities Of Just Being ME…

…And The Oddities Of Those Folks Around Me.

In Hindsight…

…I Think I Weathered It Must Better Than I’d Originally Thought.

I Wouldn’t Call It A Success…

…But It Wasn’t A Failure, Either.

I Am Still Alive, Though…

…So That’s At Least Some Measure Of Success.

My Biggest Success MAY Be The Fact I’ve Survived As Long As I Have.

I’m Generally Quite Reckless…

…And That’s Coupled With My Being Accident Prone.

Reckless

+

Accident Prone

+

Being Bradley

=

A Horridly Painful Combination

.Period.

Don’t Believe Me?!

Well Just Ask All Of My Previously Broken Bones AND My Scars.

I’m Sure They Could Spin You Up A Few Nifty Little Stories About All That’s Happened To Me Over The Years.

ANYWAY…

…When I Think About That Year (1995)…

…And Throughout The Following Year (1996)…

THE SMASHING PUMPKINS

…Were Almost A Constant.

MELLON COLLIE AND THE INFINITE SADNESS

…Was Toweringly HUGE!

And…

…While I Love The Whole Album…

TONIGHT, TONIGHT

…Remains My Favorite Tune From Said Album.

It’s The Song I Think Of Most…

…And It Never Ceases In Putting A Smile On My Face.

🙂

Doesn’t Matter Where I Am…

…Nor What I’m Doing…

…If…

THE SMASHING PUMPKINS

…Are Playing…

…I’m Hanging Around To See If They’re Going To Play…

TONIGHT, TONIGHT

.Period Period.

😀

I Sincerely Hope Y’all Are Having A Decent Week, Thus Far.

T’Is Hump-Day…

…Which Means Tomorrow Is FRIDAY EVE!!!

You Crazy Kids Take It Easy…

…Be Good…

…And Play Nicely With The Other Crazy Kids.

Me?

I Don’t Like Playing Nicely.

But…

…For The Sake Of Y’all…

…I’ll Do My Best And Try Try TRY!!!

Can’t Ask A Man For More Than His Best Effort, Ya Know?!

SURE YOU DO!!!
