Entry for Superman

'WAITING FOR SUPERMAN': HELP OR MENACE (Read more)

Superman is a fictional character, a comic book superhero widely considered to be an American cultural icon.[1][2][3][4] Created by American writer Jerry Siegel and Canadian-born artist Joe Shuster in 1932 while both were living in Cleveland, Ohio, and sold to Detective Comics, Inc. in 1938, the character first appeared in Action Comics #1 (June 30, 1938) and subsequently appeared in various radio serials, television programs, films, newspaper strips, and video games. With the success of his adventures, Superman helped to create the superhero genre and establish its primacy within the American comic book.[1] The character's appearance is distinctive and iconic: a red, blue and yellow costume, complete with cape, like a circus costume, with a stylized "S" shield on his chest.[5][6][7] This shield is now typically used across media to symbolize the character.[8] The origin story of Superman relates that he was born Kal-El on the planet Krypton, before being rocketed to Earth as an infant by his scientist father Jor-El, moments before Krypton's destruction. Discovered and adopted by a Kansas farmer and his wife, the child is raised as Clark Kent and imbued with a strong moral compass. Very early he started to display superhuman abilities, which upon reaching maturity he resolved to use for the benefit of humanity.  (Read full article from Wikipedia...)

Coming up on Television

Ladyhawke Michelle Pfeiffer as the title's pretty predator and Rutger Hauer as a legendary lycanthrope give human poignancy to this medieval fairy tale about lovers cursed to shape-change into animals. Richard Donner, who made the first Superman adventure, proves to have an elegant eye for ancient as well as everyday fables, and it's all ravishingly filmed in Italy by Vittorio Storaro, who's worked with director Bernardo Bertolucci on films such as The Last Emperor and The Sheltering Sky. Leo McKern dispels the dark from the Dark Ages with a comic turn as a Friar Tuck-ish priest, and Matthew Broderick makes an appealing young hero. (Starring:Phillipe Gaston*Matthew Broderick|Etienne Of Navarre*Rutger Hauer|Isabeau Of Anjou*Michelle Pfeiffer|Father Imperius*Leo McKern|Bishop*John Wood (2)|Captain Marquet*Ken Hutchison|Cezar*Alfred Molina|Fornac*Giancarlo Prete|Jehan*Loris Loddi|Mr Pitou*Alessandro Serra) Monday January 4 2010 18:40 - 21:00

Hot Shots! If ever a movie was ripe for sending up, then Top Gun was it, and, although this lacks the charm of classic spoofs Airplane! and The Naked Gun, there are enough good gags on show to win over those who wished Tom Cruise had gone down in flames. This time director Jim Abrahams goes solo without the Zucker brothers, but he still displays the same cheerful lack of taste and subtlety, and finds time to poke fun at movies ranging from The Fabulous Baker Boys through to Dances with Wolves. Charlie Sheen enjoys himself as the ludicrously macho fighter pilot hero, although Lloyd Bridges bags the most laughs as the altogether untogether commanding officer. (Starring:Sean "Topper" Harley / Rhett Butler / Superman*Charlie Sheen|Kent Gregory*Cary Elwes|Ramada Thompson / Scarlett O'Hara / Lois Lane*Valeria Golino|Admiral Benson*Lloyd Bridges|Lieutenant Commander Block*Kevin Dunn|Pete "Dead Meat" Thompson*William O'Leary|Kowalski*Kristy Swanson|Wilson*Efrem Zimbalist Jr|Buzz Harley*Bill Irwin|Jim "Wash Out" Pfaffenbach*Jon Cryer) Friday January 15 2010 19:20 - 21:00

Directed by: KYLE NEWMAN Starring: SAM HUNTINGTON, CHRISTOPHER MARQUETTE, Dan Fogler, Jay Baruchel, Kristen Bell

Valkyrie - First 6 Minutes In a country in the grips of evil, in a police state where every move is being watched, in a world where justice and honor have been subverted, a group of men hidden inside the highest reaches of power decide to take action. Tom Cruise stars in the suspense film, VALKYRIE, based on the true story of Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg (CRUISE) and the daring and ingenious plot to eliminate one of the most evil tyrants the world has ever known. Director Bryan Singer (THE USUAL SUSPECTS, X-MEN, SUPERMAN RETURNS) re-teams with Academy Award®-winning USUAL SUSPECTS screenwriter Christopher McQuarrie to bring to life the story of the men who led the operation to assassinate Hitler. The film also stars an acclaimed cast including Kenneth Branagh, Bill Nighy, Tom Wilkinson, Carice van Houten, Thomas Kretschmann, Eddie Izzard, Christian Berkel and Terence Stamp. A proud military man, Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg is a loyal officer who serves his country all the while hoping that someone will find a way to stop Hitler before Europe and Germany are destroyed. Realizing that time is running out, he decides that he must take action himself and joins the German resistance. Armed with a cunning strategy to use Hitler’s own emergency plan – known as Operation Valkyrie – these men plot to assassinate the dictator and overthrow his Nazi government from the inside. With everything in place, with the future of the world, the fate of millions and the lives of his wife and children hanging in the balance, von Stauffenberg is thrust from being one of many who oppose Hitler to the one who must kill Hitler himself. VALKYRIE is produced by Bryan Singer, Christopher McQuarrie and Gilbert Adler. McQuarrie co-wrote the original screenplay with Nathan Alexander who also serves as co-producer. The executive producers are Chris Lee, Ken Kamins, Daniel M. Snyder, Dwight C. Schar and Mark Shapiro. The film was shot in Germany at various locations where many of the actual events occurred, including the historic Bendlerblock. Recreating the atmosphere of urgency and paranoia inside the German resistance is a team that includes Singer’s frequent collaborators Newton Thomas Sigel (SUPERMAN RETURNS, X2, X-MEN) as director of photography and editor/composer John Ottman (SUPERMAN RETURNS, X2); as well as production designers Lilly Kilvert (two-time Oscar-nominee for THE LAST SAMURAI and LEGENDS OF THE FALL) and Patrick Lumb (THE OMEN) and costume designer Joanna Johnston (MUNICH, SAVING PRIVATE RYAN). Directed by: Bryan Singer Starring: Tom Cruise, Kenneth Branagh, Bill Nighy, Tom Wilkinson, Carice Van Houten
