Looper, I Don't Even Know Her!?!
Time travel is a tricky concept
to grasp. There are scientists that have theorized about the possibility
of moving through space and time for many years. From Einstein to Carl
Sagen all the way through to Stephen Hawking, some of the most respected
men in the field of science have discussed the likelihood of actually
traveling forward or backward in time. We may never see science and
technology catch up to the theories, but that hasn't stopped Hollywood
from mining time travel as a heavily used plot device. James Cameron
used it to bring robots from the future back to kill the leader (and his
mother) of the resistance opposing said robots. Robert Zemeckis sent
Marty McFly back to 1955, then forward to the future, then back to the
old west (I still don't know how they keep that movie series straight).
Doctor Who does it consistently week in week out on TV. Everywhere you turn someone on some show or movie is traveling to and fro through the Time Stream (yes, I love DC comics and their crazy time and space hopping).

!!! Wait, What? Oh No, They Ditnt! (Man Of Steel News) !!!
You Will Lick John Williams' Boots For This!!!
John Williams is a master! No ifs, ands, or buts about it. He has written more music that you instantly recognize than anyone else on the planet. He is a modern day Mozart, no "foolin'" (Def Leppard, 1983). I have recently been buying all the John Williams soundtracks I can find (for those interested, you can find them "here" and "here"). I have found that iTunes has a great selection of Williams' music. The other day I got the soundtrack to "Superman: The Movie". The Superman theme from that film is easily known worldwide by billions of fans. It is synonymous with the red and blue tights and the huge "S" symbol on the "Man of Tomorrow's" chest. To me, there will never be another theme for Superman. Bryan Singer knew this when he made his movie and Zack Snyder should know it now (oh, he knows, but he can only do so much). You see, the powers on high at Warner Bros. have a case of the "Dark Knights". They have decided that every DC Comics movie has to be "Dark" and "Edgy", or people won't come to see it and, consequently, they won't make a gazillion dollars off of it (because ya know, the Avengers didn't just make over a billion smackers and counting). So, what better way to do that than to chunk everything from the previous films and go with a Batmanification (my own word) to the entire world of Superman. Well, if Siegel and Shuster haven't already turned over in their graves they might as well get to turning and digging so they can get to China before they completely decompose, because that's a "STUPID IDEA"!! Superman is the opposite of Batman, that's why they are both the perfect friends and the perfect enemies. If you screw that up, you got two Batmans and one of them will kill the other (because there can be only one... Sorry).

!! Post Apocalyptic Land Of Enchantment Here We Come (Blu-Ray News) !!
The Mayans were right, the world will end this year!?!?
We are all doomed. It is official. No if, ands, or buts about it, life as we know it is coming to an end. Maybe we will have to fight Cyberdyne for the future or maybe a big asteroid that Bruce Willis (the only man that Nic will ever have to compete with for the love of a woman) fails to stop is the thing that does us in, I don't know, but I know that it's going to happen. How do I know, you might ask? Well, take the news that was just reported by the Digital Bits (in their daily column) about the imminent release of one of the greatest movies to ever grace the silver screen. It will be a 25th Anniversary Edition with special features and everything. And the best part, it's on Blu-ray in hi-def. You may be asking, "What movie could possibly be released on Blu-ray that would be able to cause the end of the world?". We'll here it is.
Wait for it!!!
Masters of the Universe staring Dolph Lundgren!!!
Yes sir, it is now official. Dick Clark is dead. Ray Bradbury is gone (happened yesterday and I didn't get a chance to mention it, he will be missed), and now Masters of the Universe will be released on Blu-ray special edition.
Well played, Mayans, well played.
