Update On Batman Vs. Superman

So everyone knows about Superman and Batman team up, they also added Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. So that's three main superheroes in one movie...SLOW DOWN DC! IT'S NOT JUSTICE LEAGUE!

Anyway, ever since The Avengers came out, everything has been over compensating. Think about it: The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has three villians, X-Men: Days of Future Past has every single X-Men in it, Batman Vs. Superman has already three superheroes in it. Everyone just needs to stop before all these movies flop. 

Now there's talk of Lex Luthor and Doomsday both to be in Batman Vs. Superman. They should of had Lex Luthor and a Batman villain, that would have made a lot more sense to me. But again, this is only a rumor. 

So what else is going on, Dwayne Johnson a.k.a. The Rock he's rumored to be in an upcoming DC movie. Here's my top 5 list of characters for him to play:

1. Jon Stewart/Green Lantern
2. Martian Manhunter
3. Cyborg
4. Doomsday
5. Lobo 

Nothing has been confirmed yet, of course. What else, Flash is supposed to make an apperance since The Flash movie comes out the year after Batman Vs. Superman. Btw Batman Vs. Superman is a working title. 

There was also a rumor that Nightwing might appear and Cyborg too...I know, it's crazy. 

Well, that's all I've got so far. Check back if you want to find out more.

UPDATE

So apparently Batman Vs. Superman and Justice League are filming back to back. This is why there is so much talk about all these different superheroes right now. Plus Josh Halloway is the newest rumor...I'm thinking Aquaman?

Worst Movie Lines Part 2

Here's another list of really dumb movie lines. Movie lines that really make you think if the people read the script before they made the movie. Lines that don't make any sense or are just really stupid. 

If you didn't get to see Part 1, I had the following lines:

X-Men: Storm: "Do you know what happens to a toad when it's struck by lightning...the same thing that happens to everything else. - Wow, just wow...

Titanic: Rose: "I'll never let go Jack, I'll never let go" - Now I know she's talking about holding him in her heart, but literally seconds later she drops him into the cold ocean...bye Jack..

Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones: Anakin Skywalker: "I don't like sand. It's coarse and irritating, and it gets everywhere. Not like here. Here everything is soft and smooth"  - One of the many very creepy and disturbing lines Anakin says in this movie...

The Fast and the Furious: Brian: "He knows I can box" - Brian, just shut up. No one likes you in this movie, everybody watching it is rooting for Dom. 

Transformers: John Keller: "Well we have one now" - Duh..why do you think they're telling you now...stupid...

Now Part 2:

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith: Padme: "Hold me, like you did by the lake on Naboo." - Yes...we all remember that creepy moment. And I'm pretty sure she didn't like it either at the time...

Catwoman: Catwoman "Guess what, it's overtime" - Halle Berry is really a bad actor when you think about it, either that or she just picks really dumb parts and doesn't read the script before hand...

Now Here's a whole bunch from the worst movie ever: Batman and Robin

Mr. Freeze: "Cool party", "Allow me to break the ice", "Lets kick some ice", "Everybody chill", "Tonight hell freezes over", "The iceman cometh", "Freeze well", "Stay cool, bird boy", "Tonight's forecast, a freeze is coming", "You're not sending me to the cooler", "What killed the dinosaurs, the ice age!"

Poison Ivy: "It's a jungle in here", No more monkey business", "Poly wanna kiss", "Sorry, my vines have a crush on you", "Then Gotham will be mine for the greening"

Batman: "We have less than 10 minutes to thaw the city", "Seven million, never leave the cave without it", "No he's just hibernating"

Robin: "It's a utility belt, not a money belt", "It's Batman and Robin, not Robin and Batman", "I want a car, chicks dig the car", "I'm going solo", "So this is where you hang out", "Just the beast", "Rubber lips are immune to your charms"

Wow that movie is just so horribly bad...and here's a video from one of my favorite YouTube Channels: Screen Junkies/Honest Trailers:

Batman Vs. Superman

It's been a while since I've been on here, to all of you who read my blog, I apologize.

Man of Steel just got released on Blu-Ray/DVD on Tuesday, I think now is a good time to get a closer look at the upcoming Batman Vs. Superman movie which will hit theaters in the summer of 2015.

I am really looking forward to seeing this movie. I know all the hate going towards it because of Ben Affleck playing Batman, but I've made my peace with that and moved past it. I don't care who is playing Batman. He's going to be in an upcoming movie along side Superman. What is more awesome than that?

To all the people who still see Affleck as a bad idea, remember Heath Ledger. He played the Joker in The Dark Knight. That casting call got twice as much negativity than Affleck as Batman and Ledger was probably the best Joker I have ever seen. Christopher Nolan is still involved with Batman Vs. Superman too, not directing it, but producing it. So there is always hope.

The rumor mill has been buzzing recently involving cameos in Batman Vs. Superman. Wonder Woman, Nightwing, Lex Luthor, The Flash, etc.. Only one has been confirmed: Lex Luthor. The actor playing him, however, has not been confirmed. At first Mark Strong was to play Superman's nemesis, but those rumors were shot down. Then it was Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston. Those rumors were also shot down. Now, the current rumor is Lost's Terry O'Quinn will play Lex Luthor. Making Lex a much older man since O'Quinn is almost 70.

Personally, I would much rather see a younger Lex Luthor. Not twenties, but in the thirties range. I would like to see Smallville's Lex Luthor, Michael Rosenbaum take the part. He's younger and he played a great Lex Luthor.

Things I can't wait to see in this movie:
The new Batmobile. In recent rumors, it has been said that The Batmobile will resemble an old Cadillac. Sounds good to me.
The new Batsuit. There has been a ton of concept art and fan art released around so far. But I read recently that they have made it and they said it looks awesome. Unfortunately, I have not seen it yet, still excited to.
Batman's gadgets. The batarang, grappling hook, etc.. The batarang, especially. Since it was not in the Dark Knight Trilogy and that still upsets me a little.
How will Batman match Superman. Kryptonite didn't exist in Man of Steel, so I'm curious of how this will work out.

Batman Vs. Superman is just a working title, I'm hoping they will change it. Obviously, they will fight each other at first then combine forces against a greater enemy, but I hope they change it to something else that sounds cooler.

Following the release of Batman Vs. Superman will come The Flash in 2016 and the long awaited Justice League in 2017.

Perfect Batman

I wrote an article a few days ago about who I wanted to play Batman, but I overlooked the perfect person for the part.

Fassbender, Evans, and all those guys are great actors and would all play Batman well, but the best actor to play Batman is:

Jim Caviezel.

He's older than most of the Bruce Wayne/Batman(s), but that's actually a good thing. Since the movie is going to be Batman Vs. Superman. Obviously they are going to fight at first and then team up. Batman and Superman are best friends in the comics, Bruce Wayne is going to have to help guide Superman into the hero he is supposed to be. So it would make a lot more sense to have an older Bruce Wayne to help guide Clark Kent to that point. It would be pretty unrealistic to have some young Bruce Wayne giving Clark Kent all these guidelines and advice if he is only a young person himself with no experience.

He is currently starring in the TV series Person of Interest, written by Jonathan Nolan. The brother of Christopher Nolan, the producer of Man of Steel. If you've ever seen the show, you'd notice that there are a lot of similarities to the Batman story comic book line. Caviezel plays a cop named Reese. He takes on different identities to solve crimes, just like Bruce Wayne a.k.a. Batman. He's not afraid to use guns, but he prefers to shoot down his enemies in the knee. But the biggest thing is how Caviezel fights in the show. He fights a lot like Batman. He uses everything he has at his disposal. He is an ex CIA so he has gadgets and weaponry like The Dark Knight.  

Jim Caviezel is the perfect fit for Batman.

Worst Rumors Ever!

So yesterday and today I keep seeing these disturbing rumors for Star Wars Episode VII. It's so disturbing that if they go with these rumors and they become true, Star Wars will suck.

First. Casting rumors. Two not the greatest actors. 1 horrible one in my opinion and one eh one who doesn't belong in Star Wars. Technically, neither of them do. So the latest rumors are that Ryan Gosling and Zac Efron are going to play Han and Luke's kids in Star Wars. Horrible idea. They are on the right track with the age thing, but please oh please not these actors! Ryan Gosling is a bad actor. He hasn't been in anything good ever. And for Efron, he's a Disney actor. This is the only reason I've had doubts about his movie in the first place, Disney. Disney always has to do something stupid. Like casting, especially.

I have a feeling this is going to be a let down movie. Kinda like Episodes 1-3. Horrible casting. Yeah, the special effects were awesome, but the acting sucked. That's why I will always prefer the original three. Awesome acting. The special effects didn't matter, the actors were awesome.

What happened to Jonathan Rhyes Myers? I thought he was going to be in this movie. What happened to the whole, J.J. Abrams knows him because of MI3, so where is he?

Second bad thing. Rumors of Director J.J. Abrams leaving Star Wars. It was hard enough to try to find a director in the first place, please don't leave. If he leaves, they'll probably get some sucky director and it will be a total flop.

Disney, please don't cast bad actors. Cast good ones like the original three movies. Combine that with great special effects. Best movies ever. But if you cast bad actors, that's not going to happen. Listen to Slim Tim.
