You Had One Job: Jesse Eisenberg As Lex Luthor

I am a generally positive person. I know that some people think that I just like to complain about things before they are released, heard, or thought of. But that is only half true. I like good shit. I love good movies. But I'll be damned if I am not being dared to not see the upcoming Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn Of Justice movie. Why? Its not the fact that Wonder Woman looks like Xena. Well, it kinda is. Then there's Aquaman looking like he belongs in White Zombie. The biggest complaint I've heard is Ben Affleck playing Batman which I am fine with. Dude is now built like a brick shit house. But they have recently released images of Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor and I could not disagree with the decision to have him as that character or in this movie more.

Looking back at the films of his that I have seen he tends to be a weasel. Yes, Luthor can be one as well but in a strong way if that makes any sense. I picture Superman looking at this guy and just laughing at him as a threat. There is nothing scary about this guy unless he was walking towards your job with a duffel bag after being laid off. I liked the Man of Steel movie while many thought it was too dark. Now I am starting to know how they feel. Every image for this new movie is a upset looking superhero. There just may be absolutely no humor in this film. Hell, even Avengers had some laughs in it and aliens were destroying a city.

You Had One Job: Aquaman Movie

The image for Jason Momoa as the new Aquaman was released and women loved it and guys were confused. I can be upset about the fact that Momoa looks absolutely nothing like Aquaman and more like Conan the Barbarian or Drogo from Game of Thrones. 

When I first heard that he was playing Aquaman what bothered me most is the fact that I do not enjoy him as an actor unless he is growling at things. I watched his movie Wolves and it was just terrible. Just terrible. And in that he growled at things and shouted a lot. That movie made less than $40,000 opening weekend and even that was more than I thought that film deserved to make. If you ever come across it on cable you will not even laugh at how bad it is. It's just regular bad. 

Momoa quelled some of my fears during a recent interview were he said “It's Batman and Superman. It's not my movie. It's the first time in history to have them both on the screen together, and I'm just excited to see those two up there. Justice League is still quite a ways away. But I'm looking forward to it. Henry's a sweetheart, Ben is a badass, so I'm really looking forward to when we all shoot Justice League.”

Badass New Batmobile

Whenever there is a new Batman related anything, more important that who is playing him is what the Batmobile will look like. They recently released a new image for the upcoming Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn Of Justice movie and I'll be damned if there haven't made an even cooler Batmobile. I read some people online complaining that Batman doesn't use guns. Oh, ye of selective memory. Offhand I remember wanting to shoot the guy that killed his parents with the same gun. Even in that terrible Tim Burton Batman the Batplane had machine guns. I think this is based more off of Frank Miller's Dark Knight Returns where Batman realized that his old ways of just capturing and locking criminals up wasn't gonna work anymore. I can't wait to see this thing in action.

New Wonder Woman Image Released

There comes a time in every nerds life when you just realize that no amount of complaining is gonna fix anything. This time I am tired of being upset about the new Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice movie that is coming out. They released the image of the new Wonder Woman being played by Gal Gadot and when I saw it I just sighed in defeat. Okay. I get it. You don’t want Wonder Woman to look cool or threatening in the least. I was hoping that Gadot would at the very least put on some extra pounds but so far it looks like they are going with a very thin woman that appears to be in a Halloween outfit. While it isn’t close to as bad as that series that never aired it still doesn’t scream Wonder Woman to me. It does scream Xena: Warrior Princess though.

Yep.
