For a start to a cinematic universe, having 5 of your first projects scoring 90% or more isn’t just good, it’s phenomenal.

Chill with the negativity on the DCU and Gunn, those scores don’t lie.

Tribute to The Man of Steel

Decided to show my love for The Man of Steel

Loved him growing up and still into my 60s

Decided he was an excellent choice for my first tattoo at 62

Has a likeness to the actor(Henry Cavill) who IMO was the best Superman to date!!!

Human Test

As a huge fan of Watchmen and the Watchmen TV show, I am suspecting that Lindeloff has a secret plot in this story. Shocking, right?!?!?

One of my very early theories is that Zoe Macon was sent to test if Jon Stewart was human.

In the first episode, Stewart talks about how aliens have pretty sophisticated methods for fooling medical and other machines, biometrics, and in many cases interrogation (not in this episode though).

But there is one fool proof way to tell if he is human…sex. Not only is human sexuality unique to humans but also they could have used the interaction to gather DNA from Stewart.

How likely is it that a 55+ woman in Oklahoma who is married to a militia head going to have sex with a young guy after speaking with him for what, 5 minutes?

And William Macon clearly knew about it (another man’s grill). It seems like a test they devised to see if Stewart was human. Would even a deep cover alien sleep with a human when they didn’t know they were being tested?

Also, and I am not sure what, but there is something to Stewart being vegan. Maybe as a red flag for the Macon’s?

My guess is that Hal is an alien (he sure reacted to the ‘hail’) and that the militia devised a plan to remove him in order to place a human in the lanterns.

Is this a good source to learn about Green Lanterns?

Since Lanterns episodes are dropping on a weekly basis, is this a good source to know about Green Lantern's lore?

I love Halogram

Aside from being a great tool to showcase character progression, since even John comments that version of him is a lot nicer, it's also really creative in my opinion and comic accurate.

It's a nice addition to the ring's functionalities that it can literally store a consciousness. So it doesn't only function as a weapon but also as a hard drive.

And I saw some people commenting that they thought the ring could only conjure up green things, and I immediately remembered Emerald Dawn II, a Hal Jordan origin story where Sinestro does exactly that: makes a non-green clone of Hal and he stays there while they leave the planet.

So since the ring doesn't even need to be close to the construct, it's acceptable that Halogram was in Rushville watching it this whole time, far away from the ring itself. I just don't know if the comics ever made a sentient construct like Halogram, but if they didn't, to me that's a positive creative liberty the show took.

What do you think about that?

I see a lot of people comparing the two movies to say that Man of Steel made more money. But I think it’s important to take into account the gradual decline in interest in superhero movies and the shift away from movie theaters, which can also affect box office numbers today.

So here’s a comparison of Superman (2025) and Man of Steel with other superhero movies released in their respective years

Screw everyone else, THIS is who deserves a solo film

Dex-starr is a good kitty, and good kitties deserve solo films

Seriously, don't they check the videos before posting it on official channels.

I don't think they released the AI using footage accidently, it was intentional. A studio like WB should have an entire team dedicated to review everything before posting on social media, and none of them thought people will notice the AI use thing. Hard to believe.

My wish for ‘Man of Tomorrow’: More Clark Kent the reporter please!

I loved ‘Superman’ (2025) but it still bums me out that the movie was busy with so much stuff that it never explores the reporter Clark Kent working at the Daily Planet, beyond that one solitary scene in the beginning post-Hammer of Boravia fight, and Clark is almost always surrounded by people who know that he is Superman.

I hope ‘Man of Tomorrow’ (2027) would give us more of Clark Kent the reporter and his struggles to keep his dual identity secret. That would be so much fun to watch!
