Here’s a Fun Little Krypto Cartoon Short

Aug 14

Posted by

To coincide with the Superman movie releasing digitally this week, DC and Warner Bros. have put together this little Krypto cartoon short. It’s only about 5 minutes long and is perfectly harmless fun, starring the movie version of Kypto and not any of the multitude of other animated Kryptos from the past. Watch it while you can, because it may get taken down at some point.

See? Harmless fun.

I only saw the Superman movie once in theaters, so I’ll probably grab a digital download at some point and watch again at home. I still want to catch Fantastic Four a second time in theaters if I can…

There will be a few more Krypto shorts coming along for the holidays, I think…

6 Thoughts on Superman (Review)

Jul 23

Posted by

This review is about two weeks late and I apologize for that. Such is life, eh? Anyway, I saw Superman opening weekend in the theater and had a blast. I was very much looking forward to this movie and had nothing but faith in James Gunn to deliver, and he did so in spades. Great film!

Movie Rating: 9/10 – Great

I was mostly lukewarm on all the DCEU movies. I didn’t care for Man of Steel and, even though I think I’ve only seen it that one time in theaters, I just don’t care for it. I probably enjoyed Joss Whedon’s Justice League more than Zack Snyder’s Justice League. I enjoyed both Aquaman movies. But I am more than ready for James Gunn to deliver a new, better DC Cinematic Universe. Let’s hope they’re all as good as Superman.

Join me after the jump for my full review and thoughts on Superman. Expect SOME SPOILERS for the movie. And feel free to share your own thoughts in the comments below.

One Last Look at Superman

Jun 14

Posted by

No comic book reviews this week because I had to go out of town for a bit and just didn’t have time. So instead, how about we watch the final Superman trailer? I normally don’t watch trailers this close to the actual release of the film, but…it’s Superman! Aren’t we all excited for this movie?

Trailer looks good. Movie still looks good. I’ll see it at the first showing my work schedule will allow. I’m really liking the sense of movement when it comes to the flying and the action. It feels like James Gunn is really trying for something new in terms of superhero presentation, like he’s really going to take the viewer on a literal ride as Superman does his thing. That should be neat to witness in its full scope!

Superman comes out on July 11.

Brace Yourselves for a Superman Trailer!

May 14

Posted by

We knew this Superman trailer was coming today, but I was not prepared for just how much juice is in this trailer — without really giving anything away. We still don’t know the overall story or how all these various elements connect or what. We just got a big, juicy, meaty trailer full of all sorts of goodness!

Man, so much going on. Superman. Clark. Lois. Ma and Pa Kent. Krypto. Villains. Lex Luthor. War. Monsters. Justice Gang. Green Lantern. Just so much stuff! Metamorpho! And I think my favorite part is when that ordinary dude climbs down into the crater and helps Superman to his feet. I loved that little bit!

This movie looks amazing and I can’t wait to watch! James Gunn forever!

Superman comes to theaters on July 11.

DC League of Super-Pets Looks Worse and Worse

Mar 8

Posted by

The Batman came out this past weekend, so DC whipped up a new Batman-focused trailer for the upcoming cartoon DC League of Super-Pets. I don’t have high hopes for this movie.

I dunno, I’m just not digging the tone of this movie. It seems to both want to be legit while also breaking the fourth wall and mocking itself. And I’m still not convinced about The Rock as Krypto. I think it’s more stunt casting than actual, quality voice work.

But perhaps I’m being too judgmental. We’ll all find out for real when DC League of Super-Pets comes to theaters on May 20.
