A ‘rare gem’ in a Quentin Tarantino movie 2007-09-01 01:28:02
The video below is a dialog from "Kill Bill: Volume II" It’s a very interesting take on the whole Clark Kent/ Superman persona, and his place in human society. Take a look at clip and ask yourself if you think Tarantino
got it right or not.
Do you agree with this analysis of the Superman mythology?
Yes Absolutely!
Yea sorta makes sense.
I’m not really sure.
No, but he makes an interesting point.
No, he got everything wrong!!

Justice League movie may have some familiar faces 2007-08-26 06:13:28
To some fans, the JusticeLeague
is the pinnacle of the DC Comics franchise where the greatest comic-book legends unite in order to deliver justice wherever it is needed. But with the JLA making its way to the big screen, fans have been desperate to know if the project will have any connection to the pre-existing Batman and Superman franchises which are already hits at the box office.
It looks like there will be a few nods to those universes, but according to IESB, both Christian Bale and Brandon Routh are out of the running for the project and producers are looking towards a slightly younger team to take on the roles of Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent. And for the role of the corn-fed Kansas hero, the next big-screen Superman may be more familiar
than fans expect.
“Smallville’s” own Tom Welling is said to be donning a cape and tights to finally bring his take on Superman to the big screen. And joining him will be some flashy motion capture e Read more:movie

More Superman movie memorabilia! 2007-08-25 15:20:26
Another real piece of movie
history is waiting to be gobbled up. You can own Superman
’s cape, as worn by Christopher Reeve in the original movie, but you might need to take out a second mortgage to do it!! It’s true, but it’s only available on eBay with a reserve price north of $80,000. You’ve only got until August 30th to place your bid on this one of a kind item. Well, maybe not one-of-a-kind. They probably had new capes for each movie.
But would you really want the cape Chris Reeve wore in Superman IV: The Quest for Peace??

Superman: President Lex 2007-08-15 14:03:25
Smoking Duck Productions, a low budget film company in Oakdale, Minnesota, is making a fan-film entitled "Superman
: President
Lex".
We have just finished most of preproduction and screen tests along with call backs for "Superman: President Lex". I know this story has been worked into many other fan films before now, but we feel that ours represents more of a homage to the Norman Rockwell style that Richard Donner once portrayed in the late 70s.
The film is not yet complete but a teaser trailer and training video are available for viewing on YouTube.

The conclusion to a “super” story 2007-09-23 02:08:35
Indie film director Matthew J. Pagoaga has recently completed work on a short film about Superman entitled "super." The official website for "super." offers the following synopsis of the film:
"super." is a comedy about relationships, self realization, and spandex. Exploring the prevalence of today’s comic book saturated media, "super." is about finding the superhero within all all of us.
The film centers around Craig who is a young man who lives alone and is obsessed with Superman. Secretly, he wears a Superman costume constantly underneath his clothes, and never takes it off. When, by chance, Craig meets Laurel, he must decide if he is willing to expose his true self to someone who truly cares, and let Laurel know about his secret compulsion.
"super." is available for viewing on Youtube via the following links:

of Super Heroes" premieres September 22 at 11:00 a.m. ET/PT as part of the Kids’ WB! Lineup on The CW Network with a two-part episode entitled "The Man From the Edge of Tomorrow" (the finale airs Sept. 29).
In the episode, we learn that in the 41st century, the universe will be terrorized by a warrior named Imperiex. The only person standing in the way of his plans for domination is a clone of the original Superman. But unable to defeat Imperiex and his vast army alone, the clone travels to the 31st century to recruit history’s greatest super hero team, the Legion, to help fight this threat.
Wizard Magazine hailed Legion of Super Heroes as the 2006-2007 season’s "Best Animated Series." So how do you go higher when you’re already at the top?

Superman and 9/11 imagery?? Where do you draw the line? 2007-09-11 04:08:17
A few years back I stumbled upon these images online and wasn’t sure what to think of them. Do you think they could possibly be an artists noble tribute? Or is it simply fan-art that’s gone too far?
Another look back:
DC smartly confronted this issue right up front in its book "9-11: The World’s Finest Comic Book
"Writers & Artists Tell Stories to Remember" ($9.95; 224pp.) Superman
, trapped in the pages of a comicbook, laments his inability to "break free from the fictional pages where I live and breath…become real during times of crisis and right the wrongs of an unjust world."
