Terribly Happy

Pablo and I never watched The A-Team growing up (it’s explained in the video), but that didn’t stop us from examining the rich excess that is the trailer for this summer movie creation.

I know there’s a market for movies like this, just like there’s a market for off-brand Santa Fe mango chutney, but the only circumstance I could see myself seeing this movie is if someone paid me to go and then paid me again after the film was over, the money handed over in a burlap bag marked, “Dubiously Gotten $$$.”

Nevertheless, the trailer was fun to poke at, at least, for Trailers Without Pity and for us that’s all that counts.

We have a live RSS feed again, which is only really very exciting to me. If you already subscribe to the blog feed, you don’t have to do a thing. There’s a redirect from the old Blogger atom.xml file to the new feed URL, terribly-happy.com/feed/. If you’re not a subscriber, now’s the perfect time to add the feed to your reader.

Or tell your mom to, or whatever. Hey — what a nice early Mother’s Day gift! You’re amazing.

So, obviously, things look a bit different around here. Welcome!

The upgrade/migration took almost exactly a week longer than I was hoping it would and theres a good deal more dust and debris than I was hoping. Shit looks UGLY. I know. You dont have to say it. Im working on it.

Less clear is whether the Terribly Happy archives will make it over to WordPress. Not sure if thats going to happen because the Easy Import tool made a mess of everything and it would take me years to fix everything if I went that route.

You can still access Bloggystyles old page (from about 2004-April 2010) or dig back even further in the archives (2000-2004).

This one was kind of a no-brainer — how could we not do Iron Man 2?

But within that easy free-throw range, I think we did some fun stuff and Pablo’s channeling of Terrence Howard whispering, “Oh, no, he flew away…” cracks me up every single time I hear it.

So, here ya go. New episode of Trailers Without Pity. Next up, we’re doing Kick-Ass and Sex and the City 2.

Theory as to why you never hear from R&B group The System anymore: Sometime between 1987 and 1988, somebody disturbed this groove.
