If I give you a courtesy follow back and you don’t know me, (meaning you are not followed by someone I follow, don’t actually know someone that knows me ‘in real life,’ or you haven’t met me face to face anywhere), please do not immediately DM me upon me following you and try to manufacture familiarity. I’ve studied up on some psychology, so I don’t fall for it. I’m also not interested in your cryptocurrency scams. In fact, for a living, I have a role as a cybersecurity expert for a large and continually growing financial institution; so I’m really not the mark you’re hoping for. Might want to unfollow me now and save me the hassle of having to apply my professional skills in my personal time. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

I miss the era the commercials were out. Whenever I’d gather with friends to play a game of Euchre or D&D and we’d order pizza, 50% of the time, (when it wasn’t a small, local place), it was Domino’s and that was usually because it was in the forefront of our minds due to the Noid commercials.

@AlexDelarge6553 Oooh…and that’s my favorite Pat Benatar song, too. Nice way to start the drive to work!

@miles_commodore I’m quite excited about it.
Going to see it Thursday evening!

** Maybe BRING IN Allura for Zatanna. Not “being” Allura. I swear, since the last two or three iOS updates, autocorrect will change stuff on the fly or as I hit “enter” on posts, emails and texts and it’s often nothing like what I typed and either makes no sense or changes the context entirely. I guess it’s the integration of AI or something, but it is extremely frustrating.

1. Superman: Last Son of Krypton. I’d bring back Henry Cavill or bring on Tyler Hoechlin, (but dude would have to lose that 5 o’clock shadow!), and I’d ban Zack Snyder and James Gunn from even talking to anyone involved in the film. Both of those egomaniacs are just awful, awful writers and directors and they don’t understand the character or why he’s been popular for more than 80 years. It would NOT be an origin story.

2. Nightwing: Blüdhaven. It would be the darkest of the movies I’d do. I’d have Dick going after Tony Zucco, while also trying to sove serial killings via detective skills learned from Bruce/Batman, (spoiler: the killer is Heartless). Maybe have Tim Drake’s Robin show up to help him and also keep him grounded.

3. Zatanna. Maybe being in Allura or something. It would be fun. Wonder Woman has been done. Supergirl has been done. I’d want to have a stron, female character, so why not introduce Zatanna to movie audiences? And the magic and effects would be fun to film. Maybe bring in a cameo by David Blane or Criss Angel or something just for kicks.

Batman has been done well. Wonder Woman has been done well, (if we just pretend that “1984” thing never happened). I want to do Superman right, but give a couple of other characters the spotlight.

@petefirman Took three viewings before I saw the pelican. And it still doesn’t look all that much like a pelican. The cat I saw before turning the phone upside down.

Are crop circles/glyphs still a thing? …Or was that so 2000?

[Bendy @MagicBendy]

@bee_boring17890 @ClassicComics3 Batman Beyond would be cool!

[Bendy @MagicBendy]

@matthewdmarsden I hope he makes a return as Superman. I hated - HATED - what Zack Snyder did to the character of Superman. But Henry Cavill was great and I’d love to see him play Superman in a movie that’s less dark and more true to the character.
Henry Cavill is a class act.

@AmazingPopPod Loved it as a kid. The only thing I think I looked forward to more was the David Copperfield specials. But Spider-Man was up there, despite terrible effect and not having any comic book villains.

@Mikehomeseller “The X Factor” and “Virtual X.”

Blaze Bayley is a gentleman. And Wolfsbane is fine. But he just wasn’t a fit for Maiden and there isn’t anything on those two albums I like. …Even when Bruce sings them live. To me, they lost something much more than vocals on those albums.

@Halloweenmcqn And you know what brand orange juice it was when I was a kid?

I’m on vacation. Any idea of healthy eating was left at work! 😜
Well…the burger does have tomato, pickle, lettuce, onion and avocado, so I’m calling it “healthy enough.”

Many years ago, I was in an upscale steakhouse where my work VP had reserved a private room for a team meeting/dinner. The restaurant hadn’t yet opened for dinner. William Shatner had been a guest at a convention down the road. I left the reserved room to go to the restroom. I passed the bar and there, alone in the bar, was William Shatner. He was enjoying a beverage and talking to the bartender. He was being cordial and seemed friendly enough, though he was sort of hovering over his drink. His body language wasn’t open, like, “hey…come say hello.” Instead, it was clear he’d probably had his fill of sci-fi nerds falling all over him and taking pictures and signing autographs.

I went to the restroom, (yes, I washed my hands 😉), and when I walked by the bar, Mr. Shatner was facing me. I smiled, nodded, (to let him know I knew who he was, but wasn’t going to engage him). He smiled, ever so slightly raised his glass, nodded back, and grinned wider than he had been before.

I got back to our private room and said, “Hey…Bill Shatner is at the bar.” No one believed me because I didn’t have a picture or an autograph on a napkin or anything. Okay. Didn’t bother me that they didn’t believe me.
About 5 minutes later, our waiter walked in and said, “Hey, everyone…William Shatner is in the bar!”
Everyone looked at me and told me to go do a magic trick for him, (I was working part time as a magician at the time and always had silver dollars or something on me that I could use for impromptu slight-of-hand magic.)
I refused. I told them his body language, while not unfriendly, wasn’t such that I’d feel comfortable being the one nerd who wouldn’t let him relax after a full day at the convention.

…So my story is that I once left William Shatner the hell alone…and I think he appreciated it.

@dustinpari And you weren’t on speaker phone, either; so the noise cancellation features should’ve kicked in! Guess it didn’t.

[Bendy @MagicBendy]

@dustinpari Let me guess who you were talking to when there was a bunch of background noise! 😂

James Gunn and Peter Sagan are OUT at DC/Warner Bros.!
It’s about damn time. Superman was weak at best and should’ve been, “Mr. Terrific’s SuperFriends, (occasionally featuring Superman).” I hate what Zack Snyder did with the Superman Character and I thought James Gunn was going to get it right, but Superman was weak, done poorly and barely a character in the film carrying his name. The dog was stupid. Supergirl was abysmal. I couldn’t get though the credits. And I know people who were able to sit through the whole thing and my initial assumptions were on-target. It was a colossal failure. Biggest one DC ever had. Clayface is apparently worse than even that.
I hope they just can theSuperman sequel, “Man of Tomorrow,” like they did with the Batgirl movie several years ago. I hope DC/WB gets someone in there that can either stay true to the character or stop making Superman movies altogether.
I’m happy to see James Gunn’s exit from DC.
