Man of Steel
You can be 25 minutes late to this movie and still have a great experience. This will be a great movie for basic cable for the same reason. The first part has very little to do with the rest of the movie.
I was very proud that I found a way to sneak a three hour movie experience into my day. Good job me.

The Kevin Smith story is very funny.
Career Arc: Superman
by Alex Pappademas on Grantland
Superman has appeared in comics more or less continuously since 1938. This is how long that is: He's been famous since it was cool to use the phrase "Slap a Jap!" on the cover of a comic book. (Just kidding — that was never cool.) He's weathered asex-tape scandal, taken a wife and then lost her to a continuity reboot, died, and been reborn, with a mullet. He's outlived his creators, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, and will undoubtedly outlive his current corporate paymasters, too.
If he were a real person, he'd be a leathery showbiz survivor — 75 years old, with a résumé split between massive hits and outrageous flops. Regardless of how Man of Steel does — and even with a Rotten Tomatoes score hovering around 59 percent as I write this, it still looks too big to fail — it won't define him for long. What define him are his endurance and his mutability. The most important Superman movie is whatever the next one is. Here's a look back at some of his more noteworthy appearances on screens small, large, and huge.

I love mascots, but sometimes they try too hard.
