Batman v. Superman Promotional Art

0 Comments

The promo art so far seems to show the Superman suit being brighter. My biggest fear with this movie is that it is as dark as a Batman film. Superman needs to be brighter and lighter. Leave the brooding to Batman.

Wasted Time

0 Comments

Since it sounds like your time spent typing can't possibly be less productive than your time spent not typing, have you tried typing SLOWER?

How much time do you waste on your phone? I know I waste a lot. Over the weekend I took a break (mostly) from tech and headed out to Starved Rock State Park for a hike. There is zero signal in the majority of the area. We got lost on the way out to the park and had no signal to use Google to find our way. I had to use my nature skills to continue heading west and hope I hit something. It was a joy to not be tethered. Do you take a break from time to time or are you always on?

Terry Pratchett and Sight

0 Comments

I don’t know much about Terry Pratchett and I don’t read much science fiction outside of comics, but this quote is great on many levels. While, yes, on a completely narrow level of Earth, we live within specific bubbles without realizing what is just outside of our small world, also on a spiritual level, in Christ we are awoken to the reality beyond reality. The shear size of our world, our existence, cannot be seen when we stumble around in the darkness, but when God puts His holy light in us, gives us the power to see in the darkness, we see more than we can imagine. Often times, this new sight allows us to see things we wish not to see— suffering, pain, sorrow, and anguish— that we don’t understand or know not how to fix, but it also allows us to see so much that we could have never imagined before— the perfection of creation, the joys of life, the victory in death of believers.

We are born in darkness, unable to see very far, unable to know very much. But in Christ our vision explodes as we start to see beyond and beyond the beyond.

God Helps Those Who…

Have I mentioned my love for Adam4d? That phrase you hear too often, “God helps those who help themselves”? That’s not in the Bible. You cannot help yourself. The sooner you admit it, the sooner you’ll find a peace that only exists under the blood of Christ.

Spider-Man Comes to Marvel’s Cinematic Universe!

0 Comments

Sony Pictures Entertainment and Marvel Studios officially announced today that Sony is bringing Marvel into the amazing world of Spider-Man! Under a new deal, a new Spider-Man (not Andrew Garfield) will first appear in a currently-unspecified Marvel film within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Sony Pictures will thereafter release the next installment of its $4 billion Spider-Man franchise, on July 28, 2017, in a film that will be co-produced by Kevin Feige and his expert team at Marvel and Amy Pascal, who oversaw the franchise launch for the studio 13 years ago. Together, they will collaborate on a new creative direction for the web slinger. Sony Pictures will continue to finance, distribute, own and have final creative control of the Spider-Man films.

Super Hero Hype

When it comes to comics, I’m a DC guy. Specifically, Superman and Justice League. But I love what Marvel Studios has been able to do with their Cinematic Universe as much as every other nerd. Rumors have persisted for quite a white that Sony (who owns the rights to Spider-Man) could work with Marvel Studios to bring Spider-Man to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Out of all the Marvel properties that Marvel Studios doesn’t own, Spider-Man is the biggest and most successful. So now it is official, Spider-Man is coming to Marvel Studios— in collaboration with Sony Pictures. I could not be more excited.
