The Superman Movie We Really Want

Man of Steel is coming out next year, but I think this is the only Superman movie we need!

I love me some stop-motion LEGO movies. Sometimes I wonder if I could pull one off myself. I’ve got enough cool LEGOs. I’ve even got that Lex Luthor robot from the video! And the Batmobile. Once I found out LEGO was making an official Batmobile, I just had to buy it. No ifs, ands or buts. Brought to use by Counter 656.

It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane, It’s a New Man of Steel Trailer

What better way to celebrate Assassin’s Creed Week than with a new Man of Steel trailer! Because this full trailer just came out today!

Now that’s one meaty movie trailer! I’m actually rather pleased to see that the next Superman movie isn’t just going to be an action/explosion fest. Looks like we might actually get some kind of deep exploration of Superman as a person and the responsibilities of his power. Call me a geek if you want, but that sounds fascinatingly fun! This trailer is definitely a winner.

Superman Gets Arrested

Looks like Superman might be spending some time in the hoosegow in next year’s Man of Steel.

Arrested for jaywalking

He does know he can break out of those at any moment, right?

I kid, I kid, of course he knows. He just chooses not to, because he’s Superman. Did that just blow your mind? I both like and dislike this movie poster, for different reasons. I like it because it promises something new and interesting happening to Superman. Arrested by some army-looking dudes? Why? What for? And what is prompting Superman to let it happen? Of course he could bust free of a simple pair of handcuffs and escape these guys. But Superman chooses not to do so. And his reasons might make for an interesting Superman scene.

I hate it because it’s another movie poster that looks completely lifeless due to Photoshop. Why are all the soldiers washed out? Why is the light so awkward? I realize it’s to make the poster look ‘kewl’, but all it does is cloud the image and the importance. Ah well. At least I’m still looking forward to Man of Steel.

The Problem With a John Black Batman

Leave it to ItsJustSomeRandomGuy to figure out the major problem with Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Batman.

It’s too bad those Gordon-Levitt as Batman rumors were untrue. I still think it would be really neat to have Justice League take off from Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy. Even if the two films have nothing else to do with each other, and the Justice League shouldn’t exist in Nolan’s films, it would still just be a cool bit of continuity. But the world is rarely as cool as he hope it will be. Thankfully, we’ve got videos like this to help us through these tough, Gordon-Levitt-less times.

Thanks to Javier for the find!

Could Joseph Gordon-Levitt Play Batman in the Justice League Movie?

UPDATE: This rumor has been denied by Gordon-Levitt’s people. Darn you, Hollywood agents, couldn’t you just let us believe a little bit longer? Even still, the fact that this would be an awesome casting choice is still cool.

The rumor around today is that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in talks to play Batman in the upcoming Justice League movie. The news is courtesy of Hit Flix, and really is just an unsubstantiated rumor at this point. No official word from either Gordon-Levitt or Warner Bros. And I usually hate publishing this kind of Hollywood casting rumor, but it’s a slow news day, and I think this would be awesome.

Will it happen? Maybe, maybe not. But then I’m still not convinced that a Justice League movie will be released in 2015.

This guy, this is the guy

I’m not going to play it safe with The Dark Knight Rises. There will be SPOILERS in this article, but I’m just going to assume that anybody who reads this geektacular blog has probably seen The Dark Knight Rises. But if, for some reason, you’re still waiting for the DVD release next week, then turn away now!
