Wait a sec...
Jason Cooper is a tube of wonderful. He was imported to DC from Detroit.
Most people describe him as tall.
He works here.
On the set of Ghostbusters (via Kevin).
Re-watch this scene. One of these guys really goes after Weaver’s boob in a way that is most unsettling.
Okay. So now I really can’t wait for this movie.
I don’t think women are going to like it though. It’s going to be filled to the brim with father/son issues, ideas on what it means to be a man, and ideas of power and how it should be used.
In short, no good jokes, lots of plodding scenes of men who are near tears, but not quite crying. Maybe some sexy shots of the new Clark Kent, but no hulk smashing, no Avengers butts, no “red in ledger.”
**UPDATE**
My wife tells me that I shouldn’t say ALL women aren’t going to like it. So I’ll say this instead: Some women won’t understand why some men like it so much.
The Man of Steel trailer reminded me of the Superman: Earth One graphic novel.
Also, I don’t want to see one ounce of Krytonite in that movie. Leave it alone for a couple of flicks.
Worst. Movie. Ever.
Five-Year Engagement is not about the ups and downs of relationships. It’s a two-hour essay on how Michigan ruins everything.
Paprika.
That image is pretty clever. (via Lucasfilm confirms J.J. Abrams will direct ‘Star Wars: Episode VII’ | The Verge)

This is true, and I agree that I never want to see another origin in the comics, but I think this direction could be interesting on screen. Superman does have to be sold in a post-Nolan world, and I am actually starting to trust the Snyder.
I’m saying let’s sell him like Iron Man and not like Bruce Wayne. I think people loves Avengers because it had a sense of humor. I saw it with audiences three times and each time Hulk smashes Loki, the crowdroared. I don’t see any roar moments in this trailer.*
I’m going to go see it. Of that there is no doubt. It looks good. My hopes for the film are a bit dashed. We shall see!
*Which, let’s be honest, is a good thing. It’d suck if an amazing moment like that was blown in the trailer.
Man of Steel - Official Trailer #2 [HD] (by WarnerBrosPictures)
I might have really enjoyed this film a year or two ago, but in a post-Avengers movie landscape, my eyes nearly rolled out of my head at this trailer.
First of all, Superman isn’t Batman. His never ending battle isn’t a curse on his life. Sure, the hectic life of the Last Son of Krypton isn’t always easy, but Superman isn’t motivated by pain or anguish. He’s motivated by a sense of truth and justice. He does what he does because it’s the right thing to do.
Y’know what, I’m not going to rant about Superman again.
Let me just say this. The next Superman movies should be a mix of Steve Rodgers, the Hulk, with the winking sense of humor of Tony Stark. I want to see colors. I want to see spectacles. I want insurmountable odds and a character that is too dumb to just quit, someone who doesn’t know the meaning of the word.
This bearded, emo, lost soul moaning about his dead planet? I’ve read that story a million and a half times and it’s nowhere nearly as fun or exciting as the stories where Superman is stopping cars from a crumbling bridges, using freeze breath to stop forest fires, and pulling kittens out of trees. I want smiles and winks and something that stops my heart— not a brooding, listless shell of a man waiting for the world telling him how he must fulfill himself.
I can’t be the only person who thinks this is sad, awful, and awfully sad.
