300: Rise of an Empire – ‘300’ SUPER-SIZED! (Movie Review)

Thinking about this today, it’s been way too long hasn’t it?  I’m talking about of course the amount of time that has passed since 2007 when Warner Bros. brought Roman soldiers with unbelievably chiseled pecs and abs into our living rooms on our early adoption HDTV sets during the Red vs. Blu Wars (HD-DVD vs. […]

Man of Steel (Blu-ray Review)

When I first found out they were attempting to go down the road of reinventing, rebranding and rebooting the legendary Superman franchise I just flat out laughed.  However, if you think that was rude, you should have heard the expletives I said when I found out that Watchmen’s Zack Snyder was helming the project.  I […]

‘Man Of Steel’ Strives For Greatness, Settles On Good (Movie Review)

We’ll always have Superman: The Movie.  While Superman has arguably been the most recognizable superhero since his creation in 1938 and has remained a national icon, the 1978 film from Richard Donner seems to be the only time cinema had truly done its best to do him justice, let alone be the film that created […]

The ‘Man of Steel’ Takes His First Test Flight (Movie Review)

The day is finally upon us.  They said it couldn’t be done.  They said it was impossible.  They said not in your wildest imagination.  Okay.  I admit it.  I said all of this when I first found out they were attempting to go down the road of reinventing, rebranding and rebooting the legendary Superman franchise.  […]

Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel: Trailer #3

Earlier today, Aaron Neuwirth posted the final Star Trek trailer before next month’s spectacle and if that wasn’t crowd pleasing enough, moments ago on the Why So Blu chat line we all received a text from Gerard Iribe saying he was sitting in warm poo after watching the just released trailer #3 of Zack Snyder’s […]

Comic Con 2012: Warner Bros. Pictures – Man Of Steel And The Hobbit

It was indeed a giant block of presentations for Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures.  Taking up over two and a half hours in Hall H on Saturday at Comic Con, they had plenty of amazing things they were prepared to show audiences.  Following a look at what Legendary had to offer, it then became Warner […]

Sucker Punch (Blu-ray Review)

Since the film’s theatrical release, it has been very interesting to hear everyone’s thoughts on Zack Snyder’s Sucker Punch.  I have people in my life that very much opposed the film, going as far to say its subject matter is an abomination of the screenplay format, and others like me who can’t wait to view […]

Don’t Get “Sucker Punched” Into Buying a Ticket!

Leading up to the film’s release it has been very interesting to hear everyone’s thoughts on Zack Snyder’s Sucker Punch.  I have people in my life that very much oppose the film, going as far to say its subject matter is an abomination of the screenplay format, and others like me who can’t wait to […]

‘Sucker Punch’ Aims High, But Is Really A Low Blow

So this movie was a big sandbox of ideas, ambition, and disappointment.  In terms of editing, style, and structure, watching Sucker Punch was like watching a day’s worth of programming on MTV, crammed into a long, two hour movie.  It begins early with a couple music videos; it then gives us shallow, underdeveloped, yet beautiful […]

‘Guardians’ Soar above Simple Story to Visual Peaks

A fairly standard adventure story about a plucky, young hero embarking on a quest to save those he cares for, aided by his friends while acquiring new skills and learning some lessons along the way.  Like other, similar films, this one is based on a bestselling series of novels, but what separates it is the […]

Comic-Con 2010: Zack Snyder’s Sucker Punch

Sucker Punch, the title of Watchmen‘s Zack Snyder’s newest upcoming film, was a surprise hit in my Comic-Con 2010 itinerary diary.  I immensely enjoyed the trailer, which was played two times for us.  It looked like a cross between a mythical/fantasy adventure and 300, with women in the starring role.  And what would Sucker Punch […]
