I Wake Up, And I'm Alive

Lots of sweet music to tend to, in due time. Stadium Arcadium, of course by RHCP, is making its entrance to record stores worldwide soon. I have not downloaded it in advance because this is one of those albums I want to own before I enjoy it. Sometimes that alone can enhance a musical experience. People say it's good but uneven, and I can believe that. Putting 28 songs onto two cds and getting them all on the same wavelength of goodygoodness must be pretty impossible, even for Frusciante and company.

However, I did see the Casino Royale teaser trailer. I did not put my hopes high for this movie, since I've never enjoyed Daniel Craig, and Bond movies have been going downhill drastically for the past three movies. Although, now I'm a bit excited again. From the looks of things it really is a more back-to-basics experience with less Mission: Impossible and a little more... Bond. Mads Mikkelsen as the ruthless bad guy, yowza. He only flashes through quickly in the trailer, but the mere thought of it makes my blood do backflips - and for fluids to make acrobatic manuovers, it takes a lot - Mads Mikkelsen as a Bond villain. Genius.

When the hell is Mikael Persbrandt going to star in a blockbuster anyway? The rest of the world needs him as well. I feel bad that Sweden's been hogging him for this long, as it is.
