Also: I totally cried at the end of the movie when the video of Clark's parents was of the Kents. I am a big sap.
We'll be in our bunk.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Now that was a Superman movie. Why did they ever let Zack Snyder get his hands on Superman?

Brooding Dudebros love his shit.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
It’s pretty remarkable how much DC improved across the board, from comics to movies, once they got rid of Geoff Johns and Dan DiDio. The whole company was infected with this dudebro mentality.

Seriously. (I do love the early-2000s Geoff Johns Teen Titans run, though.)

Good to see B'wana Beast and Vibe getting their props.
Edit: No, wait, that's Freedom Beast, not B'wana Beast.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Finally saw Superman. I really enjoyed it and while I think they might have used the John Williams' theme one too many times overall it still gave me goosebumps every time it played.
Guy was absolutely perfect. Giant dick but still enough of a good guy to use his ring to block out the angry crowd while Superman was clearly having a bad time emotionally and also to go step in to protect the people when Superman had to deal with the rift.
Speaking of the rift it made zero sense for it to work the way it did but I didn't really care.
Holy crap is Rachel Brosnahan a perfect Lois. No notes.
Mr. Terrific was fantastic and I'm excited to see what they do with the character. (Also, I'm glad Edi Gathegi got another chance at playing a superhero after the poor way Darwin was handled in the X-Men movies.)

Our wings are not tired.
I rarely go to the theater to see movies when I am in Florida, but we go at least once a week during the summer here in New York.
Last night it was The Naked Gun. There was laughter, maybe even tears rolling down cheeks. The crowd (maybe 25) vocally approved frequently. Can we pick apart a goofy summer movie? Of course, but Neeson and Anderson were cutieheads.

Just got out of Weapons. Weird and creepy, but quite good. This Zach Cregger kid is going to go far.

We watched Freaky Friday as a refresher before seeing the sequel. It was disappointing and not as fun as we remembered, so we went into Freakier Friday with very low expectations. It ended up better than anticipated. Granted, we expected so little that it wouldn't have taken much. Manny Jacinto was adorable, and there was nothing Jamie Lee Curtis could do to make me stop loving her. (Although it is never to be compared to A Fish Called Wanda)
