   Interesting idea.
   Might have its uses….but apparently the reviews say its not really great at being either an ATV or a Jetski.

   And its a little steep at $40,000.

Bought it in ’77; still have it. Didn’t learn ’til only a few years ago that Alan Dean Foster ghostwrote it.

   I still have mine. The local paper ran a contest after the first movie came out. You had to submit a drawing of a new droid for Luke’s next adventure. My friend and I both submitted images and got honorable mentions. My image was put in the paper, his wasn’t. He was kind of pissed. The prize was the paperback and a t-shirt, which I also still have. I also have the page from the paper that contains my image.

man of steel trailer

Posted in Affiliate Program on April 16th, 2013 by tiki god | Report This Post | Add to favorites

There’s a new Man of Steel trailer in which Superman looks much less like a SuperHobo (click to view).

Thoughts on this? Will it suck as much as the previous trailers made it seem or will it be as interesting as this trailer seems to indicate? I was happy with Superman Returns, but it’s time to do an original Superman storyline…oh no, wait. Zod is back, nevermind.

   I’m affraid they are going to turn this into every other summer medicore cgi filled summer action movie. The effects look very similar to the ones in Battleship.

   The story I hope will be different enough, but I’m sick of seeing origin stories.

   I would like to see them do a different villain like Metallo, Parasite, Toy Man or go way old school and use Ultra-Humanite. I think having Lex be a background character and the man behind the villian would be better than what they did last movie, or how they will probably use the alien invasion of this new film as the motivation for Lex to hate Superman. Toy Man could be revamped to have a creepy feel. Ultra-Humanite could be modernized so his mind transfer is more of a tech/puppet army thing.

   Anyway no more origin stories for established super heroes.

   All I want to know is, who did that perfectly righteous music in the trailer? Is that original for this flick, or taken from something else?

     I recently learned that normally trailers for movies don’t use the score actually composed for that movie, chiefly because it usually is not done yet. That’s why many movie trailers have music you’ve heard before.

     No idea who made the music in the trailer as I don’t watch any more footage of this movie until I’m sitting in a theatre.

       Yeah, I’ve noticed that for years…sometimes it even breeds disappointment when the music they end up using in the feature turns out to be less awesome.

       One WTF trailer-music moment I had was when they released the full trailer for Star Wars episode II: Attack of the Clones. Towards the end of it they used a weird, romping, circus-like suite composed for the Ewoks –it was never used in the film, but included on the soundtrack, which I bought. I NEVER expected to hear it again in any context, but there I was, listening to it 19 years later in the theater, and the strangest thing was that it worked perfectly.

       Probably my favorite music-never-used-for-the-flick trailer was for Sin City:

   Superman, like Spiderman, Batman, and the Hulk, to name a short few, need to be literally remade year after fucking year. I’ll skip it, as there hasn’t been a good Superman movie since like 1982 or so.

   I work at wal-mart, we use these for unloading multiple trucks. You basically have these trailers filled to the brim with stuff most people won’t buy and somethings we never have. We have about 6 of these laying around which are connectable, so you just roll boxes and boxes down the line til it hits the ned which we place the items on pallets according to which department they go to. Then wheel them out to the floor for night stockers to stock

     that’s actually the correct spelling…”gipsy” is a shortening of “gipcyan” which is a dialectic variant of “Egyptian” in the 1500′s. The nomadic people of Europe and India were called that because in they were presumed to have originated from Egypt.
     In British English it is still spelled with an i…only in American is there a y.
     Hurrah for etymological dictionaries!
