Awesome Comments On Old Posts: Superman’s Sexuality.

[Awesome Comments On Old Posts: When someone drags up a post from OL’s past and drops ridiculous nerd love or hate, we’ll let you know.]

I’ve decided to create a new occasional column, and you can figure out the concept behind it from the header above. From time to time on OL and assuredly on other sites as well, some dedicated and emotionally unstable reader (describing 99% of the internet) will lambast either the poster or a commenter. What makes it so amazing is that they’re generally so seething with hate, and they’re so fucking old. Someone dragged the waters of the Internet to find the post, and then smashed the keyboard with  vituperation.

Warner Bros. Already Searching For ‘Man of Steel’ Sequel Writers? Cart, Horse, Etc.

Comic book movies are pretty much guaranteed to make bank these days. Fold in world wide profits and everything is going green with megabucks! So while I find it presumptous that WB is already looking for Man of Steel sequel writers…I know it’s not. This movie, regardless of Frat Boy Rock’s influence, will bring in the cheddar.

Set-Photos Reveal Henry Cavill In Superman Garb. Alien Latex Rock!

I’ve been pretty fucking annoyed with the preponderance of spoilerific  set-photos and their fucking spoiler filled headlines  from websites like The Daily Blam! for The Avengers, Superman, and Dark Knight 2: Darker Times, and so I’ve abstained from reading/posting a lot of them. (In fact there’s an upcoming invective from me about this bullshit.) Anyways, there’s some harmless and out-of-context photos of Henry Cavill in the Superman costume.

Still though.

Beyond the jump.

Here’s A Couple of Pics Of Henry Cavill As Clark Kent.

How do I justify not wanting to judge Bane’s outfit from out-of-context shots, and simultaneously saying I enjoy these pictures of Henry Cavill lookin’ like Clark Kent? I’m not sure.

Christopher Meloni Elaborates On His Role In “Man of Steel.’

Christopher Meloni has opened up in a wonderfully vague way regarding his role in the next Superman cinema experience time. He starts by denying that he’ll be playing Lex Luthor, which reminded me of something. I hadn’t even thought of Luthor being in this movie, or who would play him.

Anyways.

So just who the hell is he playing?

Dan Didio Confirms The End of The Lois Lane/Clark Kent Marriage?

It seems that DC is gutting the marriage between Clark Kent and Lois Lane in the post-Flashpoint world. I suppose where there’s a reboot, there’s the idea that you can separate a couple and get rid of their marriage. That way you can totally get them married again, and get those cheap sales. Right? High-five!
