  1. If you don't see the controls on the upper left, click on the YouTube logo to watch it directly there.
  2. I'm surprised that no one here has mentioned how Batfleck's version of Bruce Wayne is the most involved in his day job. In comparison, Michael Keaton and George Clooney never stepped foot in their own corporate offices while Val Kilmer only visited one of his labs where Jim Carrey worked and Christian Bale spent his office time dozing off. For this one, Batfleck actually cares about all of his employees.
  3. Not really Snyder's fault, but many people can't talk about Supes without bringing up religion. After all, the whole issue of Supes being a Christ figure practically started with the 1978 film. Go back further into the original comic books and you'll see a lot of Judaism references such as Kal-El being based on the Hebrew word for "Voice of God".

  5. Finally got to see this film today. While it's not as bad as its Rotten Tomatoes rating, it's still a severely flawed film. Here are some of the issues I've noticed: That being said, the first two acts will need at least two cans of energy drink. The third act will satisfy those who came in to watch a fight. As for performances, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman can't really be gauged here due to her rather minuscule screen time. Ben Affleck is a more intimidating Batman than Christian Bale, though he's overall just below Bale and Michael Keaton. But in the end, they all pale compared to Michael Shannon's phenomenal performance. Prior to watching the film, I listened to the score by Hans Zimmer and Junkie XL. At first, I thought the score would drown the whole film, but it wasn't the case. There's still the Superman theme from Man of Steel and Wonder Woman's theme has shades of Tyler Bates' score from 300, but disappointingly, there's nothing remotely iconic about the themes used for Batman here. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice may be quite a misstep, but far from falling to the levels of Steel, Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, and Batman & Robin as one of the worst DC Superhero film ever made.
  6. After months of rumors and despite no official word from the studios, Arnold Schwarzenegger announced that a sixth Terminator movie is in the works. Arnold Schwarzenegger Will Be Back for Terminator 6
  7. Batman v Superman: Zack Snyder Nearly Cast Jesse Eisenberg as Jimmy Olsen [spoilerS!] Zack Snyder Explains Why Batman Breaks His Big Rule in Batman v Superman [spoilerS!]
  8. While it's a tad better than Voltron Farce, the artwork looks pretty generic. And the combination sequence rips off too much from GaoGaiGar.
  9. A quick photoshoot of my Z Family. Among the bunch, my favorites are the ZII and Lightning Zeta Gundam for their badass looks. My least favorite is the Lightning Gundam Full Burnern because it can't stand properly.
