If anyone’s run out of idea, it’s movie studios. Thankfully comic book publishers have got their backs.

I’ve never been a huge fan of Superman. He’s just a little too one-dimensional as a character for me to really care about. He can basically do anything, and nothing can hurt him. What are the chances that the bad guy in the movie will get his hands on some Deus ex Machina Kryptonite that will somehow weaken Superman? I’d say pretty good.

Batman is great because he doesn’t have any powers, just zillions of dollars. Spider-Man is a loser’s loser in real life. The X-Men are universally reviled by those the people they’re trying to save. Even Aquaman’s disabled.

Oh, and if you hit the full screen option, it’ll open in Quicktime Player and change your resolution, which will resize all of the windows on your screen. Not cool.

Superman, you’re not exactly my hero today.

Respek to Broken Kode for the heads up.
