i always wanted to be a super hero

i can't wait for the new batman and the new bond movies to be released.

and it isn't just because one features christian bale (who i have loved since empire of the sun and lusted in more recent years - mostly joking ;) and the other features daniel craig (who was in the most awesome shower scene in cinema history, and go figure it would be fully clothed). i like both these stories in particular because they depict "regular" people doing amazing things. aided and abbetted by stuntmen and cgi, of course, but hey, it's a lot closer to us humans than spiderman or superman. i enjoy those movies too, with the exception of the most recent spiderman which was a dis-a-point-ment, but they don't have a new installment in the next few weeks (batman - july 18th) or months (B22 - nov 7th) so they are a little further from the top of my mind.

just spent the best 3 minutes of my work day watching the new bond trailer.


currently listening to: sigur ros' new album.

yk, I am really looking forward to these, too. I've always liked batman more than spidey or superman, but for me, that's b/c of the darkness of batman. the other guys are too squeaky clean and chirpy for cynical old me!
