Dark-Spider-Man and more
Category: movies
So last weekend I didn't post about it but went to go see the new spiderman movie... It is the spiderman story everyone doesn't know about I know I didn't know much of it but it was pretty good.... Even Though I have never thought they had the exact fit for Peter Parker.. Yeah Tobie or is it Toby was good once I started watching fringe that that kid might have been better except he came of not really as a kid... I liked how in the last movie the did the hinting at the other goblin well guess that isn't happening...

When Batman Begins came out it was very good... I mention it cause they kinda restarted the franchise... Now maybe it was just in this mood I was in. But I thought Dark Night Rises was amazing... Can't give anything away other then that They linked the story lines together... There was just one part I didn't get but I think I understood not 100% sure... Walked in and walked out about 3 hours later :) I mean from the other movies... And they did some what I call wink and nod to future movies or at least story lines...Action Story I thought it was pretty amazing.... I said the mood thing so I'll mention it here... On the way to the show it hit me that one thing about being an adult is how some things lose being special.. Going to the movies is cool.. But as a kid it is like a treat you look forward to.. Oh mom can we get popcorn ..No we are eating after the movie...Things like that.. Yeah Doritos are cool but when you have a snack for every sporting event....

Now I have to mention Superman... Couple years ago they came out with what I thought was a good superman movie...Well not sure what happened to this guy but there is a new one out well new preview at least.. No idea if the Man of steel is a new take or remake or how you would call it....



That should be the one they showed .... I can't post trailers all day but I also think the next Tarantino movie could be great...



Now back to things at hand... I can't just post about this movie with out talking about the killings... Now both sides can make a point on gun control based on the mass shooting... Now what happened to the guy who knows... Maybe He really loved bane or is it bain or maybe he thinks that was a put down of the company :( ... Who knows but as much as I'm a Fan of the darknight one can see how in real life that villain does have a pull to him I could almost feel a bit of the occupy movement to the extreme in him... So for some people it was an unwanted real life real 3D event and that is to bad.... There is a part of me that thinks this could cause all kinds of security issues going forward.... That would be to bad at the 10:15 AM show I didn't notice anything... Did I mention how fun this movie was..Lots of yes moments but maybe that is just me....

I Haven't seen suits but there are a few shows I like on USA network...
tinypliny - 08/13/12 19:25
hey, do you watch the Suits? Its my new favourite. I think its been ages since I watched a "new" show that was not already 4 years old or something. But this one is so nicely done. Lawyers are so glamorous.
metalpeter - 08/13/12 18:50
Well there was a time when I didn't go for like months.. I was so caught up in all my shows .....
tinypliny - 08/13/12 17:45
Its been ages since I saw a film in a movie hall... I think the last time I went, it was to that comedy movie with (e:peeps). Now I can't even remember the name...

Skiffle Bidwell 2012
Category: photos
I feel that no matter how many photos I post (Can't post one's I didn't take)that the atmosphere doesn't really translate.... You have people with sheets and blankets and tables and wine and it is bit crazy....... Well see how this does.....

All Star Game 2012
Category: photos
So I don't know what to do picture wise of the home run derby I don't really think it would translate right as a blog really... Plus not sure if one could tell whom people really are so for now I'm skipping that :( oh well maybe I'll nah I won't i know I won't but who knows... But with the all star game I'm not really even sure whom the players are... I only watch the bisons so I'll start with the post game fire works that where donated ... Not sure how that works guess that gets the name out there of the fireworks company?

Fireworks where from last to first... The league the bisons aren't in won.. Guess I should do all the pageantry. Doug Allen guy who sings for sabres games sung both anthems....

Ok that is plenty it was a good time..... Even with all the people who wouldn't wait till a play stopped to get up or return to their seats... Odd game but fun....
metalpeter - 08/13/12 18:38
Thank You.. I think the camera did a lot of the work :) Ha... Tried to only post what ones looked good in the small size and since for most that would be the best part of the post put them 1st
tinypliny - 08/13/12 17:46

Taste Day 2 2012
Category: food
So Instead of calling this photos I called it food.... Last night I ordered UFC on PPV and it was fun... I also got a Chicken, Cheeder, Bacon Pizza from Just pizza hence why I'm calling this food....


image
image
image

Now Granted it is a white Pizza and a Medium and UFC is Pretty long (3-4 hours) But I never thought I would only have 2 slices left and couldn't finish them so... Later tonight....

Now for the taste of Buffalo I'll just toss up the pix some of these Items where the small size I put $15 in and saw what I could get..When you don't buy drinks you get so much more......

Looks like pretty close in order.... Think I will edit the first one and call it food in category as well.... Monday is the Bisons Home run Derby, then Tuesday Is Skiffle at Bidwel or for you sports fan major league baseball's all star game.. So DVRing Covert Affairs line up...Then on Wens-day back to the ballpark for the all star game.. On Saturday I might go to a bar? could get interesting.....

Taste of Buffalo Day 1 2012
Category: food
So I did work a bit before I went to the taste of Buffalo and that not that they are work pictures but why I will post a couple sky shots...

I thought and yes it is still going on that there was some good stuff this year...Not lots of give aways but that varies year to year but love the food truck area..... Oh and just to be clear I've allways been pro food truck what I was anti was people who boycott a place cause they want laws that favor them... I also didn't get why people got all upset when lloyd's wanted a 2nd truck and people got all upset......

Couple of things When I went into New Era I went just to look around and not sure what all that math on the glass wall is and get out of the heat but saw an amazing old style looking raiders hat so had to buy it :)

Also Thanks (e:mrmike) for the Dinosaur Idea they where good.... The Roast beef Sundae... Was it good yes... Was it as good as the 1st time I ever had it no... Somehow the Sundae dish keeps the things where they are supposed to be and not as mixed... I guess it is kinda like (wouldn't know) when you do a multiple layer drink the wrong way but it would still taste good?
tinypliny - 08/13/12 19:24
I LOVED the weather this year. It has been near perfect all the time. The winter was mild. The summer has been warm. I could not have asked for a better farewell from Buffalo!! :)
metalpeter - 08/13/12 18:48
It is good that you got what you wanted... As much as I love the heat over say the cold the heat has been up this year... There still is a bit of summer left not a lot but some....
tinypliny - 08/13/12 17:47
So did I. I think I pretty much missed the whole summer this year. But yeah, I got what I wanted finally. :)
metalpeter - 07/13/12 16:38
It is to bad you missed it... Turns out at least when I was there Sat was better.... Sunday it was so so so packed... But as crazy as pittsburgh sounded it sounded fun.....
paul - 07/10/12 00:26
I am so sad that I missed it, I was just too tired on the way home from pittsburgh to go.
