Are You planning to See man of Steel?

Posted on May 20, 2023 by giqwp

Here’s one version of a trailer for man of Steel, the Superman movie that opens June 14 (next weekend).

Are you planning to see it? and if so, when? I just realized that I’ll be traveling for family events (birthdays and wedding) that weekend, so I won’t be part of the opening weekend crowd. Expectations are high for the film, as Warner Bros. needs a superhero hit. marvel makes it look so easy, and the future of DC entertainment will be affected by whatever happens, positive or negative.

The trailer makes it look like a relatively conventional action movie, one where I already know the plot (origin story + general Zod), so I’m not upset that I can’t see it immediately. Attaching Christopher Nolan’s name tells me that the mood is probably darker (both visually and emotionally) and more depressing than I like in my superhero flicks. then again, my not liking Nolan’s Batman trilogy didn’t stop it from making billions of dollars.

The effects do seem amazing. I’m struggling, though, with Russell Crowe as Jor-El, because he seems too young for the role! same for Diane Lane as Ma Kent. What’s with those grey streaks? You can’t tell me Smallville doesn’t have a drug store with some Clairol products!

Sherlock: The fantastic game Manga, original as well as equated

Posted on May 19, 2023 by giqwp

provided that I don’t checked out Japanese, it’s unusual I get to make direct comparisons between an original manga volume as well as its English translation. So I was thrilled to see exactly how much I might discover out about Sherlock: The fantastic Game.

This is the third, concluding volume in the manga series telling the story of the BBC show Sherlock‘s very first season. It was published in English by Titan in 2018. I have a copy of the original Japanese printing of the bilingual edition because of a dear friend’s gift. (The finest reason not to be timid about your fandoms is that, if your buddies understand what you like, they believe of you when they come across oddities like this.)

The English version has a cover cost of $12.99 as well as is a relatively basic black-and-white paperback. The Japanese version has a cover cost of 1200 yen (about $12) however is much more well presented. It’s got an actual removable cover (although the beneath is ordinary white) with flaps. Plus, the tummy band (which I can’t read) has the TV picture, in situation you weren’t sure what this was based on.

I likewise like the cover picture better. The English version makes sure to show the gun, which, while it does occur in the episode, is relatively atypical of the character as well as show. The Japanese version puts the focus on Sherlock Holmes, as played by Benedict Cumberbatch, which is where we want it, right?

The finest thing about this manga volume is that, as I discussed above, it’s bilingual. The dialogue is on the page in English, with Japanese translations in the gutters as well as around the page edges.

The text was surprisingly similar, although not identical. in some cases an “oh” or similar unnecessary verbal tic is included in the Japanese however not the English. Overall, I choose the English volume’s treatment. The ballooning is much more natural, based on dialogue breaks, as well as the text is centered in the balloons instead of the left-aligned method the Japanese manga uses. In the English, the font style likewise mimics hand lettering, instead of the serif typewriter-looking one utilized in the original manga. The English version adds strong for emphasis, which is missing from the Japanese edition.

The size of the art is somewhat larger in the English version, as it doesn’t have to make space for the translations as well as occasional footnotes. (I’m curious to understand what the note on Mrs. Hudson’s “Sorry, love.” said. I presume it’s discussing the pet name.)

The books likewise surface differently. The Japanese version has ten pages of background info as well as Q&A that wasn’t translated, so I don’t understand what they’re covering. (One paragraph discusses “bloody” as well as one more talks about Speedy’s cafe, though.) In the English version, we get a cover gallery of the different alternating covers that were put on the comic issues, although they don’t look almost as awesome as the real-life color versions.

So that was a fun exercise. Although I’ve fussed at Titan’s interest to detail before, I admire the task they did with this.

10 reasons TO DIG ELVIS IMPERSONATORS

Posted on May 15, 2023 by giqwp

Actually, 8 reasons and two reasons to love Elvis remixers. and before you start commenting about what an ignoramus I am, I do know that Elvis wasn’t much of a songwriter. but I submit that these songs are Elvis covers because the songs wouldn’t be popular but for The King’s involvement.

1. little Sister-Pearl Jam. Is there any song Eddie can’t sing well?

2. Stairway to Led Zeppelin-Neil Pepper. The only better Stairway parody is “Stairway to Gilligan’s Island,” which, if you’re lucky, I’ll post some day.

3. Suspicious Minds-Bush (unreleased studio outtake)

4. Crying in the chapel Elvish mashed up against the Wailers

5. Suspicious Minds-My morning Jacket

If you get enough plastic surgery, you can impersonate yourself!
6. A little less conversation (dance remix)-Elvis himself

7. Play House-Pee Wee Moore. I love this version.

8. Elvis Presley Stole My Car-Drive By Truckers. Not a cover, a tribute, but hilarious.

9. Go here to find a bunch of remixes of The Pet shop kids doing “Always On My Mind.” Yeah, they’re about as major lable/un-indie as possible, but I always took pleasure in this cover.

10. Can’t help falling In Love-Pearl Jam.Â Eddie bookends!

GEEK GOGGLE REVIEWS: BATMAN ETERNAL #2

Posted on May 14, 2023 by giqwp

Brandon Borzelli’s Geek Goggle Reviews

Batman Eternal #2
DC Comics
Snyder, Tynion, Fawkes, Layman, Seeley & Fabok

Batman Eternal pushes the story from the opening issue forward in a couple of interesting directions. The comic veers away from much of what was introduced in the first issue, such as the appearance of Jason Bard, but the comic brings out some other new characters to the storyline to keep things interesting. At this point, the book is an entertaining read but it doesn’t distinguish itself from any of the thousands of Batman stories that have preceded it.
The issue centers around the fallout from Gordon’s actions in the opening issue. Gordon fired his gun at, what he thought, was an armed man. turns out the man wasn’t armed and the bullet set off a reaction to a power box that ended up killing a lot of motorcyclists on a train. The main plot here is very incredible from lots of points, especially the way the cops are treating Gordon. However, the fallout around him makes the story digestible.

Batman is doing what he does: investigating. While he’s trying to track down the real story, he is also working to clear his friend’s name. Batman pays Gordon a check out and it is one of the better scenes in the book. Snyder captures this relationship in classic fashion.

Another good scene in the book is when Catwoman shows up to speak to Batman. There isn’t anything new here but it’s great to see the contrasting interactions between Batman and his various support system cast. The book ends by revealing the new danger and it’s a familiar one and not one that I would gauge to be Batman’s equal unfortunately.

The artwork is good. There’s not a whole lot of action in this comic but the book still takes on a grand stage look. The comic really looks its best when Batman is interacting with Gordon or Catwoman. somehow the intensity shows through the cowl. It’s a good artistic book.

Batman Eternal has the luxury of moving the story along swiftly because of the weekly schedule. However, the components showing in the first two issues don’t really seem to warrant a weekly comic book. The ideas just don’t feel that special. We’ll see where all of this is heading. This will entertain you but will it entertain enough to keep your interest weekly? I’m not sure about that.

A far-off community volume 2

Posted on May 12, 2023 by giqwp

guest evaluation by Ed Sizemore
**Warning: This evaluation consists of Spoilers**

Hiroshi Nakahara is a 48-year-old designer who discovers himself mysteriously transported back to when he was 14 with all his understanding as well as memories intact. He soon realizes that this is the period just before his daddy mysteriously abandoned his family, as well as he has resolved to stop him. considering that Hiroshi has already effectively modified parts of his past, he’s positive he can make this change, too, in A far-off community volume 2 by Jiro Taniguchi.

As a 42-year-old male living the everyday grind in the service world, I might sympathize with Hiroshi immediately. At its heart, this book is about one man’s middle-age dilemma as well as the incredible scenarios that show him his own problems as well as shortcomings.

Volume one focused on Hiroshi adjusting to being 14 once again as well as taking happiness in being young as well as carefree. Initially, Hiroshi gets lost in reliving his youth, enjoying the benefits an extra 34 years of experience provide him. In this volume, Hiroshi is now focused on finding why his daddy left so he can take procedures to stop it. It’s right here that we discover exactly how bit Hiroshi truly understands about his parents.

I discovered it strange that Hiroshi didn’t even understand exactly how his parents very first met, or exactly how they pertained to be married. maybe it’s both generational as well as cultural differences. Hiroshi’s parents are from the a lot more standard Japanese society prior to world war II. considering that a lot of marriages were set up then, perhaps it was just presumed that everybody got married that way, so Hiroshi never believed to ask. only when he believes that info may assist him stop his daddy does he lastly ask.

Hiroshi’s lack of info about his parents’ backgrounds points to a essential selfishness in his character. We see this in the flash-forwards to moments of his adult life. Hiroshi likes to regular hostess bars, where he tells the women exactly how he is a complete stranger in his own home. That’s truer than he knows. He has no hint his older child has been seriously dating somebody or that his younger child hates his drinking habit. His energies are focused on his service as well as the socializing that preserving a successful service needs in Japan. married life isn’t interesting anymore. He began believing a new spouse will assist revitalize his life.

What Hiroshi is going with is typical to all middle-aged men. We feel the weight of time in our bodies, in our lives, in our memories, as well as even in our souls. We don’t have the physical endurance we utilized to have. We begin to determine memories in decades instead of months or years. death is no longer so far in the future it seems an illusion. At times, it feels like death is ideal around the corner. Our self-image has to modification from that of the young man/son to the older man/father. Some fight it with hair plugs, elegant cars, mistresses, moving to a new city, or new wives. Others are fortunate sufficient to make the shift gracefully. Hiroshi’s daddy hit this dilemma early as well as left his household around age 38. Hiroshi is in risk of making the exact same mistake.

The conversation Hiroshi has with his father, Yoshio, at the train station makes this all poignantly clear. Yoshio believes that his life has all been programmed out for him. It seems so convincing when you very first hear him describe it, however a moment of thought, as well as the facade shatters. While it’s true his parents selected to apprentice him to a tailor, after the war, Yoshio had a possibility to select a new profession. He didn’t. He made the option to go after a connection with Hiroshi’s mother. When it ended up being remove she wouldn’t be able to leave town with him, Yoshio selected to stay. What he truly selected was the path of least resistance, as well as now he regrets it. however instead of seeing the bounty before him, he believes a much better gather is just beyond the horizon. Hiroshi can’t stop Yoshio, since he is having the exact same dissatisfaction with his own life. His daddy stands before him as a mirror to his own soul.

Hiroshi realizes that while he may not have physically abandoned his family, he has emotionally as well as psychologically abandoned them. He has been utilizing alcohol as well as gos to to the hostess clubs to take breaks from his spouse as well as daughters. If he continues as he’s been going, it will only be a matter of time before he convinces himself that his drunk delusions of loneliness are reality. then he as well will leave his household in browse of something much better over the mystical horizon. Hiroshi breaks the cycle of his daddy by selecting to see exactly how terrific his household genuinely is as well as to reconnect to them. He selects their genuine love, with all its flaws, instead of a charminnull
