In England, they call it "the French Superpower," but in France they call it "the English Superpower." Go figure.

I agree with slicer- if you can squeeze your hairy gams into 'em, go for it.

Virtue is not the same as value, sadly.

Well, people specialize so they can get good at one thing, but that aside...

And he gets to be a total misogynistic douchebag to hot women and still get lots of play.

I just hate the idea of making Jor-El, Scientist into an action hero.

Agreed.

Are you kidding with your very opening statement? The NRA and the rest of the gun lobby has been fighting everything from registration to trigger locks to background checks for as long as I've been alive!

I'm a hard-left liberal, and have shot handguns and rifles throughout my life (37 years now), starting in Boy Scouts, which did a good job of teaching basic firearms skills and safety.

Yes, true. Just think about how many murders, betrayals, reconciliations, resurrections, and industrial accidents that means in the average Marvel Month!

Like everything else. The other main wedge issue I think this applies to is abortion. When polled, most Americans consider themselves pro-life, but the majority of those don't believe that a woman should have to carry her rapists' baby to term or complete a pregnancy that's likely to cause injury or death to the…

This is the unfortunate deadlock. The Left might be willing to accept that gun education is better than no gun education if the Right was willing to endorse reasonable safety measures (and their enforcement) - and vice versa. Sadly, no one's budging. There's just no trust on either side.

Just FYI, the traditional behavior of rich Manhattanites is to get out of the city in the summer months, because it stinks.

And a very appropriate and cool building, to boot!

A movie reboot of BSG? Just a couple years after the most successful reboot I can remember? They're nuts, and it shows Singer's sinking stock (post Superman Returns) that he's involved with this.

I do read comics for social and political commentary, but think they should stay away from Civil War for another reason: the MCU is not yet old enough. The resonance of Civil War came from the familiar universe being balkanized. It's a very different, and much less interesting, thing to see that once different…

My conjecture is that he either goes into hiding or hasn't come out yet as Superman, when he's tracked by Zod & crew, who pummel him into this state.

Yeah, that's my favorite take on the character. I really like the idea that without the arrival of Superman, he could have been a great boon to humanity, and that Lexcorp has done real good in the world. It makes his twist into evil that much more resonant.

True... though he's no stranger to long drawn out climactic battle scenes. Still, I want to read the gunfight. And the digressions. And the character connections, and... sorry, I have to run off to Amazon now.

Reeeally not a fan of Bosworth as LL, but even if she's not your type it's hard to say she's not stunning. I didn't see her hair as red, just a brown, which was still not right. Her biggest prob, though, was that she was very obviously too young for the role, a problem I don't think Adams will have. Overall, I'll…
