The Man Of Steel Poster

This poster was released yesterday. One can only imagine what the story line for the movie will be. I think the movie is going to be more about the origin of Superman, the way he became the hero he is. Kind of how Christopher Nolan remade the Batman. He gave you a better understanding of what Bruce Wayne/ Batman were going through, the demons he fought on a daily basis. I think this is one element that has been severely lacking in all of the Superman movies. While the Christopher Reeves movies are classic, there hasn't been one about the man. I think that is why the movie is called "The Man Of Steel" because it is about a man coming to terms with his abilities and the fact his biological father "Jor El" has labeled him as earth's greatest hero.

 "You will give the people an ideal to strive towards. They will race behind you, they will stumble, they will fall. But in time they will join you in the sun. In time you help them accomplish wonders."-Jor El

This must be one of the hardest things for a man to hear. The fate of Earth is in your hands. I think this will be an underlying theme of the movie. I don't know how i would react if i found out i was from another planet sent here because my home planet was destroyed and then i was labeled as the only hope to save Earth. That would almost be too much and on top of all that i have to learn to control my abilities and keep them hidden from other people. 

The poster to me shows how we (Earth) would react to someone with that kind of ability. This is a great sign for the movie and shows that they are trying to make this hero more believable. I can't wait for this movie as Superman is by far my favorite superhero. 

Fight The Foot

This has been floating around the interent for a very long time. When i first came across it i was hoping that they were going to make a much darker and grittier Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. As a kid this was by far my favorite toys, video games, and tv show to watch. They were the main reason i ate pizza. Now i eat it because let's face it, it's delicious. The first two movies that were made, were phenomenal. It was fun, funny but didn't really do anything in terms of making it seem real. Why is this important? Batman is a beloved character and in every TV show and movie there was really no way it could be believed that it was real life. That is until Christopher Nolan took over the franchise and made Batman more realistic. The Villans were believable. This movie not only appealed to fans of Batman but to people who don't follow the Caped Crusader. My dad is a prime example of this. He was blown away at "how real" it is. This video Fight The Foot makes the turtles look like they could exist. I know they can't but it seemed to be much more intense. I mean if these four Mutants use actual weapons they will kill someone. Do i think they should? Probably not because this was designed for kids. But if you go back to the comic books way before the 1993 cartoon show you will see them killing members of the Red Draggons. This gang was the original enemey of the Turtles. So if they did decide to make it more realistic in that sense i would be all for it. In the end as a fan of the TMNT i want to see the movies remade and would love to see them a bit more edge like Batman and hopefully like Superman. As long as Michael Bay doesn't touch them i think we'll be okay. So enjoy the video and hope you all like it.
