The Death and Return of Superman!

Posted on January 31, 2013 by

We’ve talked about this before: I’m not a big Superman fan. I’ve never read any of the Superman comics. I don’t think I’ve even seen any of the Christopher Reeve movies all the way through. (I might have, but it was definitely before … Continue reading →

“Maybe It’s Time We Stopped Trying to Outsmart the Truth, and Let It Have Its Day.”

“I Won’t Kill You, But I Don’t Have to Save You.”

Posted on June 13, 2012 by

Batman & Robin seemingly killed the franchise with just two words: Bat Nipples. But in 2005, Christopher Nolan managed to ressurect the dead. While I have a couple of problems with it (I have a couple of problems with everything), … Continue reading →

“I Am Catwoman. Hear Me Roar.”

Posted on May 17, 2012 by

The Avengers was awesome. This must be said. (And then repeated. And then possibly even sung.) But The Avengers is not the only gigantic superhero movie coming to a theater near you this summer. There’s a certain trilogy by Christopher Nolan that … Continue reading →
