No time for dueling. Exchanging email with a publisher about possible release dates. Nothing official yet but it's getting there.

Yeah, I wasn't really interested in that anyway. I'm just wondering what you didn't see in the movie.
Buuuuut... I think I know what it is. You were working on your own Superman movie only to see the first Man of Steel trailer that earth shattering day in the theaters... and respond with a quiet, "Well... damn it." |

Nope, not working on a Superman movie. Though obviously I SHOULD, since Goyer and Snyder haven't got a fucking clue what makes Superman Superman.
No, it isn't the suit, it isn't powers, it isn't even necessarily the steps of the mythology - though what primed me to walk the fuck out of the theater was Jonathan Kent's death being ABSOLUTELY and UTTERLY meaningless, unless dying to teach Clark to be a coward and hide his powers when he could easily help people is what you want out of Jonathan Kent - it's the core of the character. Superman doesn't need to be whiny or postmodern or any of that other Nolan bullshit (that worked so well for Batman). He doesn't give up and he puts others ahead of himself. That's it. Those are his defining characteristics. Snyder and co. either don't get that or don't care. And they made a very pretty movie with a very terrible interpretation of Superman in it, and frankly I hated it SO MUCH I will not watch another DC comics movie that Snyder has any influence over. Not one.

....a publisher is preparing me an honest to shit book contract.
Shaking a little bit. It ain't life changing money...I mean, unless it sells 500k copies. Then who knows. But..it's a step.

I... huh.
Yeah, I think I'll want an autographed copy of Irid's book. Is it a cheap romance novel with vampires? Cause that seems to sell. Anyway, that's three. Only 499,997 to go. |
