Man of Steel - Superman Nolified and Hope!

"Man of Steel" Superman ditches his Disguise and how to Fix This!

How dare they. The criminals! They made Clark Kent, aka Kal-El, aka Superman, aka Earth-One (those are a lot of aka's) ditch his disguise and reveal himself to Lois Lane and the government? Whaaaa!!! How could they do this? They ruined an entire franchise an entire generation they pissed on our childhoods they they... they....

Ok, time to put the pitch-forks down and lets get serious now. How can this be fixed, perhaps say in the new upcoming film of Zack Snyder, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice? That is the question on some people's minds. The real question however when we look through all this is or should be: "Why does it need fixing?"

Zack Snyder and DCxSW Mashups... What if it isn't just fun and games?

A Crazy Thought. But what if Snyder is actually making 2 films, and Batman vs Superman comes earlier than 2016?

BATMAN and R2BIN

I know Snyder is teasing or simply trolling us for probably no reason at all with these Star Wars cross Batman/Superman photos... But here is a thought to humour our imaginations. What if they are actually shooting 2 films instead of one and are going through this Justice League cross Batman vs Superman mix-up phase (meaning that Batman vs Superman Dawn of Justice is a codename for both films) to surprise us and the SW mash-ups are their way of hinting it?

Marvel vs DC: Box Office Numbers and Total "Scores" so far.

It's no secret that DC has fallen behind in the film industry in the last 15 years, and although it used to pump out more Superman films of old and what not, the last 15 years are enough to place it a distant second far behind Marvel. But how far behind is it really?

Well, I done the busy work for you all and crunched the numbers up to put them all in one place, keeping things nice and tidy. Lets see how much ground DC has to cover to reach its competition.

Starting from the year 2000 to now (July 2014), just under 15 years, we can easily see the difference between the two leading franchises of comics.

Fanboys! And the Michael Bay Hate Wagon

Fanboys will be Fanboys...

What's with this Michael Bay hate wagon? It's years already. Is it going to ever stop?

First off, I am not a Michael Bay fan boy. I am neither trying to stick up for him, excuse him, or whatever else one may think of. I am simply tired of seeing his films (and him along with them) being attacked for no other reason other than fandom rage. And let's face it, that is exactly the only thing it is.

Before Transformers, there wasn't really much hate to go around. But then a Transformer film is made and every geek, nerd or anyone else that either greatly or mildly enjoyed Transformers as a child found a chance to complain about and hate like no tomorrow on the film and the creative party as well. "He is ruining childhood memories".

Didn't that phrase get old already with George Lucas?

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2014 - Splinter, Shredder, and Ninja "Blings"

Saw the 3rd trailer to this TMNT "reboot" (it is a reboot isn't it? I'm guessing so) some days ago when it came out... and I couldn't be more hyped to see this than I already am. You should be too, and I'm going to help you find out why.

Being only a trailer there is usually not much to go on due to either the small amount of content that is shown or purposefully edited plot ambiguity, but in this case there is much that can be said indeed.

First of all, you need to be some form of TMNT fan in one way or another to appreciate some details, some more than others I guess (like Ralphs depiction in all posters, always facing in an opposite direction to the rest of them even when all that is shown is simply their hands and weapons).

(Check out the trailer bellow to get in touch with the points I am making if you have not already seen it)

JUDGE DREDD vs DREDD and the COMICS

Review, comparison and tribute...

Judge Dredd, starring Sylvester Stallone, 1995 with a budget of 90 million

vs

Dredd, starring Karl Urban, 2012, with a budget of 45 million.

Ok, so I'm going down that path of comparing the two, and why not? I am after all a fan of Judge Dredd since the age of around 10. Perhaps even younger (have to give credit to my brother for introducing me to it at such a small age).
Fandom aside, I loved the reboot of this iconic character (remake as some called it, yet they couldn't be more wrong and obviously haven't seen one of the two if not neither) and I can only do both the character and myself justice by dwelling into the depths of Megacity One's toughest law enforcer.
