‘Man of Steel’ Ending: What Would You Have Superman Do? (Spoilers)
I am a big Superman fan. When it comes to DC comics, he is only second to Batman – because let’s face it, Batman is the best. But in all seriousness, Superman is an amazing superhero. He is also an American icon, who has fought for truth, justice and the American way for over 75 […]

Movies That Were Box Office Disasters, In Honor of ‘After Earth’

Movies That Feature Deliberately Anachronistic Music, Inspired by Baz Luhrmann’s ‘The Great Gatsby’
This week sees the release of the heavily anticipated Baz Luhrmann directed adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby. Luhrmann is perhaps best known for the jukebox musical Moulin Rouge! (That’s their exclamation point by the way; not mine.) So far the bulk of the pre-release buzz surrounding his take on the material revolves […]
