Man of Steel Proves Itself Worthy of It's Name

"You can save them. You can save all of them."
                                                                                          --Jor-El


As of tonight, the estimated total for Man of Steel is $116 million, taking into consideration the midnight screenings, we get to $128 million. The last time a Superman film bowed at the box office was 2006's Superman Returns. Guess how much that one did in it's first weekend? $54 million. In three days. In 2006. Not 1978, 2006! That's number 2 for best opening for a non-sequel in the history of everything and anything and even your mom. #1 of course being, The Hunger Games. 
"They finally got the Superman formula right," said Paul Dergarabedian, an analyst for box-office tracker Hollywood.com. "Superhero movies really are the bread and butter of the summer box office. The fact that 'Iron Man 3' has the biggest opening of the year so far and 'Man of Steel' has the second biggest opening of the year just proves that."
 Right-o. Maybe, this, is not what people wanted. They evidently wanted this instead. I'd also like to add at this time, that I'm one of the few champions of Superman Returns. Me and one brother of mine are some of the select few that are totally A-Okay with the film. It is Bryan Singer after, right? Okay, just checking.

Here here! To David Goyer, Christopher Nolan and Warner Bros. for furthering and revitalizing the Superman series on film. I was 100% satisfied with the film, and am looking forward to the future of the newly established DC/WB universe.

Munki out.

A Review: Man of Steel

"One day you're gonna have to make a choice: 
    Whether to stand proud in front of the human race--or not."
                                                                                                    --Jonathan Kent



You can't think through this one you have to feel it. . . 

Those are a summation of my precise feelings on the film itself. And the reward in doing that is sweet enough to drink deep with satisfying results.

Is Jon Hamm Really Gonna be Superman?

Like I've previously stated if you read this damn thing: I don't do rumors. And I don't do speculation.
I do facts--reported news. Not nonsensical mind-wandering film-sites do to attract readers. That Catwoman piece was legit and a real think-tank kinda story. With a lot of backing and trustworthy sources and facts behind it.

A Very Nice Juxtapose And Evidence
This Needs To Become Reality


That being said, a few months ago it was reported WB wanted Jon Hamm (The Town, Mad Men) badly for Supes in the reboot being produced by the great and powerful Chris Nolan. And now those things are making their rounds again.

Batman & Superman Know How Their Gay

We've all seen the infamous completely improvised scene from 40 Year Old Virgin, with Seth Rogen and Paul Rudd going totally from their heads with the stuff. Out of all the tributes on Youtube to this scene, I like this one the best. The angle of them sitting side by side isn't actually in that apt. They had to cut out the wall with the TV on it and pick up the shots showing them actually playing that game later, which is also inserted video game footage.

Anyway, without further adieu...



I know, I'm damned awesome for finding this. Hold your applause ladies and gentleman, just doing ma jobbie.

'Justice League Online' Trailer Drops

The new trailer for this thing just dropped suckas. And it's 6 minutes of awesome. At Comic-Con, Sony Online Entertainment released a six minute cinematic trailer for the upcoming DC Universe Online. In a way, this might be the closest look at what a Justice League of America movie is gonna be like.

George Miller tried a few years ago, nearly had a complete cast in place and some pre-production done, but the whole thing got such back lash from fans and Warners was nervous about making one in the middle of franchises like Batman and Superman going on. So they pulled the plug. Good thing too, it would been, well, not the right damn time. Not the right damn actors, director, anything really.



Cool eh? Eh?! Yeah?!! I know...Sweet. This a role playing game similar to WOW or something like that. You can't control any of the heroes or villains, but you can choose to be a hero or villain and start your career down the path of, whichever the hell one you choose. This is for Windows or PS3 I've been told. Sounds cool enough, it's like GTA for superheros. Nice.

Munki out.
