patentdragonThoughts On The Big Game...
"Packers by four" was a pretty good call - it ended up 31-25 Packers; or "Packers by six", and let's not forget the 21 Green Bay points that came about because the Steelers turned the ball over. Do that, and you're pretty much screwed, but Pittsburgh didn't give up. It's not in their nature - no sir.
The third quarter started to turn the Steelers' way, but even getting the eighteen point deficit down to just three wasn't enough. Aaron Rodgers was a thoroughly deserving MVP, even though the defence laid the foundations for the win - perhaps this could have been the perfect opportunity for an entire unit to snag the MVP honours, but as an individual, Rodgers was the stand-out.
Not necessarily a classic, but in no way a disappointment. A good game, with the most balanced match-up in recent memory. Sometimes, a game just gets decided by the unexpected...
Now comes the wait - today marks the longest time before next season. If we actually get a season this year. C'mon, guys, let's sort out this new d upcoming financial settlement, and get back to the game.
Sadly, the majority of the British media seems to think that "Xtina" screwing up the anthem was the biggest story of the night. Yeah - riiiiiight.
And finally, on this subject... Oooooh looook, new blockbuster trailers/teasers, hot from the Super Bowl - a not exactly fresh THOR offering (which is still not a bad thing); some more action for Transformers - Dark Of The Moon - looks like we've got some large scale invasion-type business going on; interesting glimpses of Cowboys And Aliens (wacky comic-based antics, possible double-header material), Battle: LA (king-size Skyline, coming NEXT MONTH), and the mysterious Super 8 (Cloverfield prequel...?)... but the big one has to be the very first glimpse of Captain America - The First Avenger! I think I'll be watching all of these again tonight.
How about this...? Link between THOR and Captain America - the Asgardians hand over to humanity a token of peace and friendship - Cap's shield! Nick Fury asks "Where did you find this?" and Thor answers "To the north..." Fade to the Arctic wastes, and an icy monolith with a human figure inside, his shirt open to reveal a white star on a blue background and red and white stripes...
Development News... Got a chunk of on-paper TDD-609 ...Second Movement typed up, and expanded. The "lead-in" to the conclusion of this Episode is stretching a bit, and I'm going to need to clamp down on it a bit. Just the facts, man...
