Topless Robot has a new poster from Iron Man 3. That would be enough for us, but they also offer an explanation about why the Avengers movie is called “Avengers Assemble” outside the U.S. Read more »
New Man of Steel Trailer
Here you go. The new Man of Steel trailer. Aka The New Superman Movie.
There’s a lot of parenty stuff I could say about it. I will one of these days. For now, some thoughts.
Topless Robot’s Chris Cummins asks some good general questions: “Do you want an angsty bearded Superman? At some point in the film will he throw on Joy Division’s Unknown Pleasures and sulk? Will Lois Lane be moonlighting at Hot Topic in the movie?”
