Superman Reviews, Interviews & More

The previous Man of Steel trailers we’ve seen thus far have all more or less focused on the same thing—Kal-El’s journey from his home planet of Krypton to Earth, and the dueling influences of his two fathers.  His Kryptonian father predicts that he will help humans accomplish great things, while his adoptive Earth father wishes for him to hide his identity for fear of...

Comic book movies. They're everywhere now, and they're the biggest movies of the year. Post-Avengers, which made one and a half  billion dollars worldwide, we're going to be getting more and more of them, as both Marvel and DC have got plans for their futures. So, it's time to take stock, and check back on the best of this genre. (Note: this only pertains to...

Ever since the trailer that was much, much, much better than any ad for a Zack Snyder has any right to be was released, we’ve been more and more hopeful and excited about the flashy director’s, Man of Steel.  As Snyder’s films have an overwhelming tendency to go for style over substance (though that opening scene in Dawn of the Dead is still...

Zack Snyder—as the director of films like 300, Watchmen, and Sucker Punch, he’s not exactly known for crafting pop masterpieces that serve as cinematic benchmarks of any kind; rather, his films tend to be superficial orgies of CGI and style, with little to no substance beneath their slick, hyperactive surfaces.  So it’s with more than...

While the movie gods have seen fit to basically drop every possible Iron Man 3 and The Wolverine  spoiler possible upon eager comic book movie fans, there hasn’t been much more than a whisper of details coming from the ultimate superhero film, Man of Steel (and by “ultimate” we simply mean the biggest superhero, so don’t get all pouty, The Dark...

OK, so just in case the headline wasn’t enough prep, here’s the deal—the following will contain SPOILERS concerning the upcoming Superman film by Zack Snyder and Christopher Nolan, Man of Steel.  Everyone clear on that?  Spoilers!

In a rumor that can’t possibly be true, word is now beginning to spread that Christopher Nolan and Christian Bale will be returning to the character of Batman—with Bale playing the character again in The Justice League, and Nolan overseeing the project, just as he has with Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel.

For about three seconds there, the Warner Bros. attempt to carbon-copy Marvel’s success with The Avengers seemed full-steam ahead, with the Man of Steel film set to lead to a Justice League (featuring a team up between Superman, a new Batman, and various other DC Comics superheroes), and the Justice League film acting as a reboot for a new Batman...

Ellen Page has decided to make movies instead of just starring in them. She'll be making her directorial debut with Miss Stevens, a film about an unlucky teacher who chaperones high school kids. Also, Ryan Gosling continues to cast his own first film, How To Catch A Monster. He's lining up this movie with a bunch former co-stars. We've also got a cool GIF of...

After seeing the success of The Avengers, Warner Brothers wanted to get in on that game and so they've been talking up Justice League as their version of last summer's $600 Million dollar hit. And in some ways they have it easier. Iron Man and Thor don't (or didn't) have the name recognition of Superman and Batman. But it looks like their...

One of the many perks of seeing a Disney movie at the movie theater is that you always get a delightful snack before the big meal. By that we mean the short film that comes before the feature. These clips are filled with creativity, emotion and wonderful, unique characters. Paperman, the short that debuted in front of Wreck-It Ralph last fall, was uploaded...

While most of Man of Steel, Zack Snyder’s take on the Superman franchise (with a little help from producer Christopher Nolan), is still a mystery, Russell Crowe has recently come out with some spoiler-y information on the upcoming superhero film, and seems to definitely confirm this is going to be in the general ‘dark and gritty’ mode of comic book film, in which we “get into...

Because it’s a post-The Dark Knight Rises superhero film (that also happens to produced by Christopher Nolan and written by David Goyer, with a story co-written by Nolan) Zack Snyder’s upcoming Superman film, Man of Steel, is all kinds of “dark” and “gritty”—so much so that it appears to have gone full Dark Knight, to paraphrase...

Man of Steel, the Zack Snyder reboot of the Superman story, is one of next summer's biggest question marks. And this new poster raises more questions than it answers. As you'll see below, this doesn't suggest Superman punching robots, so much as that Superman is going to be in some hot water. With humans.

While Warner Bros. and DC Comics are obviously keen to develop as massive cinematic tentpole franchise in the vein of Marvel and Disney’s juggernaut of Avengers-related releases, a big question concerning WB’s The Justice League is whether or not it would link up with Zack Snyder’s upcoming Superman film, Man of Steel.  Initially, Snyder indicated that his...

There's very little that we know about Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. The director and his cast have been shy about giving any details on the upcoming Superman movie, but it looks like one guy is finally ready to share a little. In a recent interview, Snyder gave a lengthy update of his highly-anticipated, superhero movie. The director said that Man of Steel...

Because it’s a blockbuster film being released in 2013, of course Man of Steel is going to be post-converted into 3D and IMAX in order to hike up ticket prices.  Of course it is.

Yesterday brought us the strange but intriguing news that Warner Bros. had turned to Ben Affleck to direct and star in their big-budget adaptation of the Justice League comic book (a.k.a., Hey Avengers Made a Crap-Ton of Money, Right?  Can’t We Throw a Bunch of People in Tights at the Screen, Too?).  It seemed highly unlikely that Affleck would leap on...

Yesterday brought us the news that Joss Whedon was returning to write and direct The Avengers 2.  Today, we’ve got news about the other brewing team-up (well, after Guardians of the Galaxy), DC’s The Justice League.  Apparently, Warner Bros. has approached actor-director Ben Affleck to direct the film.

We're a year away from Zack Snyder's Man of Steel, but there was no way Warner Brothers was going to miss the opportunity to start selling the film with their biggest film of the year, so they attached a trailer to The Dark Knight Rises. In fact they offered two different ones, both with different narrations from Superman's two fathers.
