I am so not down with the new Supes costume.
Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
OMG, he looks like a cold plucked chicken! Ew.

It's an odd color - - it just looks wrong.

It's plastic, and there are no red underpants. Just wrong. That costume is iconic, dammit.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm not as concerned about the red undies as I thought I'd be when I started seeing headlines. I'm DEEPLY dismayed by the icky goosebumpy texture.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
That just looks so wrong.

I suppose it can still be saved by good writing (I'm assuming decent acting from Cavill is a given), but the director and art director's failure to appreciate the iconic appearance of the character does not fill me with confidence.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Just watched Limitless, which was great. Bradley Cooper was really good, and I dug the visual style and score. Plus, bonus Anna Friel! I was surprised by De Niro's role, though. That didn't seem to warrant a De Niro. Of course, it didn't help that the trailers were entirely misleading.
