Review: THE DEATH OF SUPERMAN
Directed By: Sam Liu, Jake Castorena Based Upon: “The Death of Superman” by DC Comics Wow. Just wow. The End. JUST KIDDING. The non-spoiler review is below. I might do a spoiler review after the movie is out on all platforms. I was enormously impressed with this film. The DC Animated Movie Universe has neverrr caught my eye in the slightest, but this one really takes everything I hated from the last movies and tosses out the window. We get to see a more balanced Clark Kent, yet also a more… troubled Clark. Gah this is hard to do without so many spoilers. I wish we’d had this fight with…

JUSTICE LEAGUE: Henry Cavill Says Snyder-Cut Wouldn’t Make a Difference
Henry Cavill spoke on the “Snyder-Cut” opportunity during his press tour for Mission: Impossible – Fallout. He doesn’t know if one actually exists or not, but he does think if one did exist, it wouldn’t make a difference. He says it might be entertaining, but it wouldn’t change what happened in Justice League, and ultimately it wouldn’t make money for the studio, so while it would be interesting to see the differences, the future is where it’s at. In the interview with Yahoo, he also talked about his hopes for Man of Steel 2, and what comic book story he would like to base it around. Brian Azzarello’s For Tomorrow…

Review: ANT-MAN and THE WASP
After Thanos wiped out half of the universe with the snap of his fingers, what’s the next chapter in the Marvel saga? Well… it’s an ant playing the drums. Ant-Man and the Wasp is supposed to serve as a pallet cleanser after Avengers: Infinity War. It takes place two years after Captain America: Civil War and (presumably) a few months before Avengers: Infinity War. Is it a step up from the previous film or is it one of the few Marvel duds? Mild spoilers from here on out so if you want to know absolutely nothing come back after you’ve seen the film. For the rest of you, let’s talk about…
