“Liam Neeson trained Batman, Obi-Wan, and Darth Vader. He is both Aslan and Zeus AND he punches wolves. Why is anyone taking his family?”

The Superhero Delusion: How Superhero Movies Created the Sad Perfect Badass Messiah, and What That Says About America

Imagine a world where everyone is a superhero. Would you like to live there? Do you think it would be better than our own world? Or would it be worse? This is an important question, because judging by the most successful movies made in 2012, our country — and our world — really likes superheroes. We all know that the two highest-grossing films of 2012 were about superheroes – The Avengers and The Dark Knight Rises. The third major superhero movie released last summer was, The Amazing Spider-Man, which earned $262 million domestically. It was the sixth-highest-grossing movie of the year in American theaters. We tend to lump these movies together because they are all about costumed codenamed characters who originated in comic books. They are Superhero Movies.

A really excellent article by Darren Franich on the state of superhero movies.

THE REAL BRUCE WAYNE
From Neatorama
“He’s hot, and he’s a millionaire, but he comes with tons of emotional baggage. This composite image was created by redditor morphinapg from equal parts Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, and Christian Bale—the actors who have portrayed the character onscreen. Morphinapg used the free software Sqirlz Morph.
And you thought Bruce Wayne was a comic book character!”

30 DAY FILM SCORE CHALLENGE

Day 24: A song from a film score that you could fall asleep to

“The Grand Finale” from Edward Scissorhands (1990), composed by Danny Elfman.

Still fighting the “rock star” label after having only been a film composer for five years, Danny Elfman turned in this subtle, beautiful score that is often imitated, frequently licensed, and never improved upon (I’m looking at you, The Polar Express).

Beginning with Batman in 1989 and culminating with The Nightmare Before Christmas in 1993 (which precipitated the famous feud between the composer and his longtime friend and collaborator, director Tim Burton), Danny Elfman enjoyed one of the most productive, elegant and memorable periods in his career, not to be recaptured for half a decade.
