Born in the shadows of a flickering light, Tiny hands
0:30
reaching through the endless night.
0:33
Dreams stitched together with a fragile thread.
0:38
Whispers of hope in the words unsaid.
0:44
Time spins the wheel. And it's a ruthless game.
0:47
Every step forward feels the same.
0:51
From the first breath thrown to the final flame.
0:54
We're bound to the story. No one's a blame.
0:57
Cradle to the grave. We rise, we fall.
1:01
Echoes of laughter threw it all dust.
1:04
On the. Boots.
1:05
Blood in the vein, carrying the weight of joy and pain.
1:10
Cradle to the grave. It's a long heart, right?
1:13
No place to run, no place to. Hide.
1:25
Are you being serious right now? Yeah.
1:29
You'd let me interview you as Superman?
1:32
Sure. Ready.
1:39
Let's do it, Cronkite. Superman.
1:43
Miss Lane. Recently you've come under a lot
1:47
of fire for what some might it's it's a lot.
1:53
Today the Secretary of Defense said he was going to look into
1:56
your actions. That that's funny.
1:59
My actions. I stopped a war.
2:03
Maybe. Not maybe I did.
2:06
In effect, you illegally entered a country.
2:08
This is how you're going to be. I'm not the one being
2:11
interviewed. Superman, Did you consult with
2:14
the president? No, you.
2:18
Seemingly acting as a representative at the United.
2:20
States of anybody. Except for.
2:22
Me. Around the world and doing good.
2:27
I would question myself in the same situation and consider the
2:30
consequences. People were going to die,
2:32
Superman. Hey buddy, eyes up here.
2:59
Your choices, your actions. That's what makes you who you.
3:12
Are Superman. He's not a man, he's an it.
3:29
I somehow become the focal point of the entire world's
3:31
conversation. I will not accept that.
3:41
I cleaned your boots. I'll go get them for you.
4:13
All right, ladies and gentlemen, my name is Brett Keene.
4:17
You are watching and listening to GOD TV Radio.
4:20
When you get a chance, check me out on Spotify, my radio
4:23
station. You can also check out my new
4:25
CD, my album release as well as but.
4:28
So let's get into the trailer of Superman, the official trailer
4:34
by DC. There's actually been quite a
4:36
few clips of a lot of that material and content already out
4:39
there, like the dog and the bleeding in the snow and some of
4:45
the robots and everything that are a part of the, I believe the
4:50
Fortress of Isolation is what they call it.
4:56
Well, first I'm going to put AT like this.
5:01
This is hard for me to watch these newer versions of
5:05
Superman. I was in love with the older
5:09
version with Christopher Reeves didn't really care for much of
5:12
the other Superman's long before him.
5:16
And that was probably because they didn't have the kind of CGI
5:19
effects and neat stuff, and they didn't concentrate really on
5:24
character building. Back in the 50s and 60s, it was
5:27
pretty much, you know, he runs in, saves somebody.
5:32
And there wasn't really no storyline.
5:34
I enjoyed the TV version of Lois and Clark.
5:37
I do like Dean Cain's version of Superman, but not even close to
5:43
Christopher Reeves. Henry Cavill came along and I
5:47
remember I felt like, are we ready for this?
5:52
Well, Henry Cavill wasn't the the first one.
5:55
There was another guy, Ruth or something like that, who played
5:59
The Return of Superman. And it wasn't a bad movie.
6:03
The guy looked a lot like Christopher Reeves, a skinnier
6:06
version, and he had the whole Superman and Clark Kent kind of
6:13
personality. See there's always been kind of
6:16
a problem with Superman movies. Either they focus too much on
6:21
Superman or they try their best to make Clark Kent as clumsy as
6:27
possible. But usually it is that the movie
6:30
spend too much time on Superman and his heroic feats and actions
6:36
and not really the human side of them.
6:37
Where Man of Steel with Henry Cavill, actually, he showed you
6:42
what it was like for him as a child.
6:43
I know people are going to say, well, there was a damn TV show
6:47
that had like 20 seasons to it, Smallville.
6:50
You could have watched that. That wasn't terrible or bad or
6:53
anything, but I don't know. I just wasn't feeling that one
6:57
as much. Henry Cavill, whenever he got on
7:02
the screen, it wasn't just Henry Cavill himself, it was also the
7:06
other people, the guy who actually played.
7:12
What's that damn name? The Zod.
7:15
Oh my goodness, said Scream. And I will find him.
7:19
I will, you know, destroy him, dismember him and all that kind
7:23
of stuff. That guy was, that guy was raw.
7:26
He was brutal, man. He is an actor that I enjoy
7:32
watching a lot. I just can't seem to get the
7:34
damn name out. You guys can tell me in
7:36
comments. And then the woman who played
7:41
his mother. Absolutely beautiful.
7:44
And then there was Russell Crowe actually playing the part that
7:49
before in the Chris Reeves, Marlon Brando played the
7:54
original father of Superman, and he was good.
7:58
He was pretty good. I heard that he was an annoyance
8:03
to deal with for the other actors as well as directors
8:06
'cause he didn't like to actually read his scripts.
8:08
He just wanted to get out there, say a couple things and take the
8:12
paycheck. But Christopher Reeves really
8:15
made it. And of course, the late deceased
8:19
Gene Hackman playing Lex Luthor. He added some humor, but he also
8:24
made it intense and made you actually concerned.
8:28
I think that Superman was good all the way up to 3-4.
8:32
Got a little cringy with the Nuclear Man and then them over
8:36
dubbing Gene Hackman's voice over the Nuclear Man, which I
8:40
didn't think was necessary because the Nuclear Man already
8:44
had. The guy who played Nuclear Man
8:46
actually had a cool voice. They could have just used Let
8:50
him talk. They could have added, I guess,
8:53
a lower pitch to it. So this Superman comes along.
8:59
My issue is, ladies and gentlemen, is that I'm getting
9:03
wary. I'm getting fatigued by all
9:06
these different versions of Batman, all these different
9:08
versions of The Flash, all these versions of, I think they took a
9:13
long enough time with Wonder Woman.
9:15
There was no way we were going to get the older version back.
9:18
And she did a successful TV show, the original, back in the
9:22
80s. It was plenty of time went by to
9:24
go ahead and do a remake or a new version of her.
9:27
And the new Wonder Woman is beautiful.
9:29
She's absolutely sexy, glorious in every way.
9:33
But Superman, boy, they just keep on doing it.
9:40
The Snyder universe. Oh, I got, I went ahead.
9:43
I didn't like the Justice League Superman video, not the edited
9:48
version, but I did sit down and throw some cash down.
9:52
I bought the entire four or five hour Z Snyder thing and damn it,
9:58
that's a bad ass movie. They should have never cut
10:01
anything out of that. That made the movie a totally
10:04
different deal all together. Yeah, incredible.
10:09
The introduction itself, you already got your skin crawling
10:13
and sugars down your spine just by watching the start of that
10:18
movie from beginning to end. Fantastic.
10:23
So what do we got here? We got James Gunn.
10:25
He's put out his version of Superman.
10:28
Here's how I tolerate these new remakes.
10:31
I just pretend to myself that that Henry Cavill Superman is
10:36
still alive and running around. And the character Superman, that
10:40
was Christopher Reeve, he's got his own alternate universe.
10:43
Henry's got his and I'm willing to accept.
10:48
I'm open minded and I got to be honest with you, ladies and
10:52
gentlemen, I was really nervous. I knew that they were throwing
10:56
around the idea doing Superman, but I was getting really nervous
11:00
because everybody was talking about we need a homosexual,
11:04
black, lesbian, polka dotted Superman.
11:07
And I'm like, no, we don't need that shit at all.
11:10
I don't need any of what was put in any of those categories.
11:16
I do not need Superman to go woke.
11:19
To me, that would have been like, I'm ready for the
11:22
Antichrist, the end of the world kind of thing.
11:25
I don't need to see that shit. Can Ioffer some advice to people
11:30
out there who are mentally deranged and feel like that kind
11:33
of shit's got to be pushed into everything in your politics?
11:37
Why don't you learn how to be creative and unique, create your
11:41
own stupid ass characters and then make a comic book out of it
11:45
or a movie. And when you go broke and shut
11:48
then at least you can tell yourself you tried.
11:52
But leave my legacy characters alone.
11:55
Leave characters alone that have already been established and
11:58
lore. Don't fuck with it.
12:01
Don't touch my shit. And for those out there who
12:04
think lesbians need to be represented in black people and
12:07
all that, you can always use Spawn.
12:11
He's one of the most bad ass fucking characters in the world.
12:14
There's always Blade, you know. There's plenty of awesome black
12:18
superheroes, you do not need to tell us that they're not
12:21
represented enough. We love them, we've accepted
12:24
them, they're a part of our lives.
12:26
OK, so fuck you on your whatever is going on in your brain.
12:31
Maybe you don't know enough about comic books and movies
12:34
yourself to realize that people of all color and diversity are
12:39
fucking represented fine. Hell, they turned Batgirl into a
12:44
lesbian and it's got it was one of the most annoying fucking
12:47
things I had to watch. People are going to say, why do
12:50
you got a problem with lesbian Batgirl for?
12:53
Because the whole fucking reason anybody watched Batman was
12:57
because this was a guy who was stripped of his identity, was a
13:01
a kid that watched his parents get murdered in front of him.
13:05
The last thing on his fucking mind is where he was getting
13:07
Dick and pussy from. Batman was The Dark Knight.
13:10
He went out and fucking took out deranged ass lunatics who were
13:15
destroying the city of Gotham. That was the priority we were
13:18
concerned about, not who he was having sex with.
13:22
In fact, most of the Batman movies stayed away from
13:25
relationships. The idea was Bruce Wayne is a
13:28
very isolated person. Anyone that he tries to have a
13:31
relationship with it would be crippling for him.
13:34
It was one of his vulnerabilities as a human.
13:37
He didn't want to drag people into his pain and suffering.
13:40
Alfred would constantly complain you need to get married, fuck
13:44
the Batman costume, have a real life, be happy for once.
13:49
That was the entire point. The psychological attributes of
13:53
Batman, why people love him. We bring back girl along and she
13:58
ain't got no real. She had a tragedy where
14:01
supposedly Batman tried to save her and she got dropped in a
14:03
fucking hole or something and her mom died and the sister
14:07
turned into a a like a bullshit version of I forget what the
14:14
Joker's girlfriends called Holly.
14:17
No, I don't know. I don't give a shit.
14:20
I don't really care about that character.
14:23
She's been blown up all over that Suicide Squad shit, and
14:27
she's not all that for me. I think she's been, for some
14:30
reason, people took a psychotic female and turned her into a sex
14:35
object. You weird sick fucking pervert
14:37
to you. Yeah, It's like right on the tip
14:42
of my tongue what her name is. I guess it doesn't really
14:45
matter. So this Superman, while the
14:50
graphics are great, the special effects are nice.
14:53
It's obvious that the idea and concept behind this version of
14:58
Superman is they're trying to bring back the Christopher
15:01
Reeves concept. An innocent guy who is found
15:07
himself in our world with powers and abilities, and he's trying
15:10
to use them for good. It appears as though there's a
15:13
lot of fucking shit going on here.
15:16
He's got giant Godzilla monsters knocking fucking buildings over.
15:21
You've got super villains who are kicking the shit out of
15:24
everything and killing people. You got Lex Luthor who looks
15:28
like AI don't know he he doesn't look like a cool Lex Luthor.
15:33
I'm sorry, but he doesn't. Does anybody ever watch to come
15:39
or read the comic books? Lex Luthor is this built
15:42
corporate looking guy. He's strong, he's tough.
15:46
He's not some kind of weird, like fucking warped face guy.
15:51
He's the type of guy that women adore and people look up to.
15:55
He's real smart, knows how to run business.
15:58
I mean, he's a human being who actually gives Superman a run
16:02
for his fucking money. So I don't know.
16:05
I don't know what I think about Lex Luthor.
16:08
People have to understand that Superman and Batman and The
16:12
Flash and all these type of characters, it's not just the
16:15
hero themselves that make the movie or the comic book or the
16:18
film or a show. You have to have the enemies
16:22
have to be bad ass too. They have to be interesting.
16:25
They have to be fucking smart. People are bored of seeing the
16:28
dopey ass bad guy who ends up eventually basically telling his
16:35
whole plan to the bad guy or the good guy and then getting
16:38
himself killed in the end. You want to believe that there's
16:43
an actual struggle there, and you can't have a real struggle
16:47
unless your foe or your enemy is smart, strong, and has his own
16:53
actual justifications that you can almost relate to and
16:56
identify with. That's what makes them so
16:59
attractive. And Batman's characters are a
17:02
lot like that. That's why the Joker's so
17:04
popular. At least some versions of Jack
17:07
Nicholson. Heath Ledger version and Mark
17:12
Hamill, the cartoon animated version.
17:15
He's an idiot in real life, Mark Hamill.
17:17
But as the Joker, he excels. And I don't have to remind
17:23
people, I suppose, that he was Luke Skywalker back in the day
17:27
when Star Wars actually meant something to us all his
17:29
children. So yeah, this Superman, well,
17:35
this is the first time in the movies, at least the comic books
17:39
did it 100 times. But this is the first time
17:42
they're introducing Super Dawg, the character that plays Lois
17:47
Lane. She appears to be pretty and
17:50
cool. That's one thing that was
17:51
missing from the Christopher Reeves version of Superman.
17:55
The woman they chose is Lois. Good actress which helped to get
18:01
through the movie looking at her, but when it came to
18:03
physical appearance, he wasn't something even an average man
18:07
would find attractive or interesting.
18:09
I suppose back when she was 20 years old you'd she was one of
18:15
those, you know, double bag them types.
18:17
But as she got older playing Lois Lane, it was just it just
18:21
didn't look right next to Christopher Reeves.
18:24
Christopher Reeves was an absolute God like figure is
18:28
where her she well, I hate to be mean, but she looked like dog
18:33
shit. The Lois Lane in the Henry
18:36
Cavill movie, in the Lois Lane that played in the roof's film,
18:43
he a roof or whatever the fuck his name was.
18:46
She was pretty and she was able to carry herself.
18:49
She was believable as Lois Lane, sadly, and Lois and Clark, the
18:56
woman who played Lois, although she was pretty, she was fucking
19:01
annoying. Absolutely annoying.
19:04
All these other Lois's, whenever they got into trouble, you
19:07
wanted Superman to save them. This girl and Lois and Clark, if
19:12
it wasn't for Dean Cain you would have been like, yeah just
19:16
let her let that rocket or elephant fall on her and just
19:20
get rid of her ass and get rid of the lowest part and just keep
19:23
it as Clark as Superman or something.
19:26
Couldn't stand that woman. Oh constantly bitching and
19:30
saying crazy shit. Worst fucking journalist on the
19:33
planet. Well, so you guys are probably
19:40
waiting for me to say something about this Superman.
19:44
Well, I don't know what to actually say.
19:46
A lot of what I was seeing on the screen, I don't know what
19:48
the fuck I'm looking at. It appears as though the
19:51
Fantastic Four is going to be making a cameo appearance.
19:55
I recognize I think his name was not Hawkeye but Birdman or.
20:00
Hawk Man or some shit like that, that was a character.
20:04
I've seen a lot of covers of the comic books but I just did not
20:08
find that character interesting and never got into that comic
20:11
book. But who knows maybe this movie
20:15
will do it. I don't know.
20:17
Why are there fucking monsters? I don't know, maybe they opened
20:20
a portal, maybe a dimension open up and that's why all these
20:24
assholes are flooding in along with the these fucking Godzilla
20:28
like creatures. I don't know, it was just a lot
20:31
to look at. It was obviously it brings out
20:36
the child and all of us, the nostalgia by hearing the fucking
20:40
old Christopher Reeve music, but all amped up with some kind of
20:43
cinematic vibe to it. That's cool and you're waiting
20:49
for that. I got to be honest with you, I
20:54
love Christopher Reeve's old Superman music, but I was
20:58
starting to get kind of, I was starting to get attached to
21:01
Henry Cavill's music. It was very powerful and
21:05
emotional. It really, really fit the mood
21:11
of the movie and shit. Very good.
21:15
I wonder what they're going to do though.
21:17
I'm curious, is Superman already going to be grown up?
21:20
It seems like with every Superman or television show
21:23
Superman, they always got to show the little baby and the
21:27
fucking ball of spikes that get shot out in the universe and
21:30
comes to Earth. They usually revisit what
21:33
Superman was like as a kid and then they get into it.
21:37
Or are they just going to jump right into it?
21:38
Are they going to say Superman's here and do like one of those
21:42
things where while we're watching it, he has flashbacks
21:46
of what he used to be? Or Dad?
21:48
Because I did see the old man with the cross eyes.
21:51
I've seen him in the movies before.
21:53
He usually plays a fucking weirdo or a bum or something.
21:56
But apparently he's going to be, you know, old Kent who adopted
22:02
Superman when he landed in the cornfield and shit, taking care
22:06
of him. I wonder how that's going to go.
22:09
I noticed there wasn't a woman and every Superman the father
22:13
dies either from a heart attack or being destroyed by a tornado
22:18
while Superman watches. This time it looks like the old
22:22
man's alive but no imagery of the of Miss Clark.
22:27
You know the the old woman. Maybe they're reversing the
22:31
story and letting the dad live this time and killing the old
22:35
lady. I don't know.
22:38
Well, it it's a movie I'm going to want to watch.
22:43
It's I'm not really so excited. I feel the need to go out to the
22:47
movie theater and fucking donate blood in order to afford movie
22:51
theaters around here are super expensive.
22:53
We're talking if I took my kids to go see it that are young
22:58
adults. Now we're talking 60 fucking
23:00
dollars and that's before soda and popcorn and bullshit.
23:06
I was really hoping that a lot of these movie people would keep
23:09
their word and make it to where I could just stream movies at
23:12
home and shit that are at the theater, but they fucking
23:16
haven't gotten around to getting that straightened out.
23:18
So I guess I'll have to wait for the DVD or Blu-ray or whatever.
23:23
I don't, you know, Honestly, I don't really deal with fuck DVDs
23:27
anymore. Blu-ray, I usually buy them off
23:29
of Prime or some movie places that I go through the app
23:35
through my either my Xbox or my machine like that.
23:40
Yeah, so there it is. Whoop, There it is.
23:45
It looks good. It looks interesting.
23:47
I'm willing to give it a shot. Lot of shit going on.
23:51
I hope there's not so much pile into it that we don't get an
23:55
actual storyline that's not just Superman thrown into a world of
23:59
hurt. Do you notice that?
24:02
Do you notice that every single trailer about Superman so far is
24:07
about him getting the shit kicked out of him being dropped
24:09
from the sky in the cement or he's fucking bleeding in the
24:12
snow or something? It's always Superman hurt.
24:16
This is the first time we're in a trailer.
24:19
We actually get to see him talking while getting, while
24:22
seeing flashes and him getting hit with a fucking tank shot at
24:27
having cams thrown at his head. Is that the focus?
24:32
Superman getting spit on by humans?
24:35
And basically they're taking Superman into the New Testament,
24:39
you know, where he's trying to do good and then you, you know,
24:43
beat him up or try to abuse him and, you know, try to kill him
24:47
in the end. Is that what we're going for?
24:49
A New Testament, you know, Jesus Superman type of story 'cause
24:54
that's basically what I've been seeing every damn time I turn on
24:59
a clip of this. It's Superman getting shit
25:02
whipped out of him, or grabbed or punched or, you know, speared
25:06
by some big WWE wrestler looking son of a bitch.
25:10
You guys notice that? Am I missing something here?
25:13
Is he not getting his ass kicked in every fucking moment of the
25:17
trailer except for whenever he's yelling at Lois?
25:20
No, I'm just trying to be a good guy.
