My Movie Review

Okay, first things first, i might make a separate blog for this section, because i could end up reviewing movies only and not other things like a dead eyed thug or killer food on my current blog, second i do declare that i am in the directing business and third i am a movie buff, so bare with the fact that i could ramble on about movies for hours (but not in a geeky way, i don't point out film mistakes) i can also tell you that, in my eyes, most of the best films that i have seen so far, have all come from Christopher Nolan...

did i leave the oven on? Nolan (above)

I E, Batman Begins, Memento, The Dark Knight, Inception, The Prestige even Insomnia (Not The Stephen King one) so the fact that he and fellow Batman veteran David S. Goyer (Blade, The Dark Knight, FlashForward Ghost Rider) his brother Johnathan Nolan (The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises, Memento, Insomnia) and with him stepping away from the directing chair, Zach Snyder (300, Watchmen, Sucker Punch) have all teamed up for another DC Comic realistic revamp after The Caped Crusader wears his cape for the last time (in my eyes anyway, seeing as there might already be a reboot) and the fact that it's Superman that's been given the Dark treatment by the four directors and Producer / Nolan's Wife Emma Thomas, has me giving birth to a super-powered egg

Superman - Man of Steel (2013)

I forgot my Credit Card on Krypton, so i improvised (Carvill as Superman)
Dir - Zach Snyder
Story - Chris Nolan, David Goyer, John Nolan
Cast - Henry Carvill, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburn, Kevin Costner & Diane Lane


Man of Steel is just around the corner with the release date as June 14 2013 and a budget of around $175 million dollars, this is going to be special

with a vast cast like this
Henry Carvill (Immortals) taking the red cape from Brandon Routh
(seems the tables have turned Mr.Routh),
Oscar-Nominated Amy Adams (Night at The Museum 2, Junebug and Judd Apatow's Talladega Nights) chosen from a shortlist containing Mila Kunis and Olivia Wilde to play Louis Lane,
Oscar-Winner Russell Crow (Gladiator, American Gangster) is playing his Dad,
Oscar-Winner Laurence Fishburn (The Matrix, Boys N The Hood) as Perry White, Editor in Chief of the daily planet newspaper (The first black guy to play Perry White),
Kevin Costner (JFK) and Diane Lane (Judge Dread) playing his adoptive parents
and Michael Shannon (Boardwalk Empire) as the villain General Zod,

Is that a gun in your pocket or are you happy to see me

and Telling from the screen shots like the one above, (that makes one feel inadequate) the new suit looks suitable for even more rough and tumble (no pun intended) and the plot summery like this with more info coming around Christmas time :

"In the pantheon of superheroes, Superman is the most recognised and revered character of all time. Clark Kent/Kal-El (Cavill) is a young twenty something journalist who feels alienated by powers beyond anyone's imagination. Transported to Earth years ago from Krypton, an advanced alien planet, Clark struggles with the ultimate question - Why am I here? Shaped by the values of his adoptive parents Martha (Lane) and Jonathan Kent (Costner), Clark soon discovers that having super abilities means making very difficult decisions. But when the world needs stability the most, it comes under attack. Will his abilities be used to maintain peace or ultimately used to divide and conquer? Clark must become the hero known as "Superman," not only to shine as the world's last beacon of hope but to protect the ones he loves."

Thanks to Warner brother for the well needed information that i could have thought of myself.

It may be a similar plot to the first one in 1979 but it could be done better with great nepotism (Chris & John) and with Zach (300) Snyder in the directing chair along with his epic directional camerawork  

watch this space Michael Bay, watch it hard (Snyder, Above)

i can't wait for this movie to be released to tend to the deep hole left with the Batman trilogy's departure,

Give Me A Hug
Chris Nolan and Aaron Eckhart  on the Set of
The Dark Knight in 2008 
so bring on the man of steel i say, it's going to be well wicked! also i would put more information up, but Christopher Nolan loves his secrets so were gonna have to wait till June 2013,
but don't get mad because Mr. Nolan's methods seem to work just fine with his two Oscar Winning Films (Inception, The Dark Knight) and with him being tagged as the modern day Hitchcock! and even speculation that he's heading the follow up Ridley Scott's Blade Runner. YOU HEARD ME, BLADE RUNNER 2!

I'm walking away, In sad, dramatic fasion
See Ya
The Guy
