Its a Pajaro, its a plane, no its the most anticipated Movie of 2013. In about a couple of hours I, along with millions other Supes (thats what the cool people call him) fans will finaly get to set there non Kryptonian eyes on The Man of Steel in theaters. In leading up to this flick, I have done my prep/marathon of Superman movies. My self (Manny <---- Thats what the cool people call me) am a bigger Superman fan than Batman one. Its been hard especially now since Batman was huge pop cultural sensation because of Christopher Nolans excellent Trilogy. Alot of people became more aware of The Bat and made it "Cool" to like him. Ive always liked the Bat, shoot I still have pictures of when I was a young lad wearing My Batman shirt.  I hope that this current movie can bring Supes up to and surpass the shadow of The Cowl. I still kind of hid my Superman love back a bit, until now. I have all the Superman movies on dvd with 2 diffrent collections, 2 blu rays, 1 steelbook, various animated blu rays, 1 vinyl record, a handfull of Graphic Novels, 1 Kryptonia Key to Supermans Ship, a drawing I did when I was in 6th grade of The Man of Steel (would post a picture of these cool things but most are back at my mums house in Texas) and almost all Smallville seasons on dvd, one can not talk Superman without mentioning Smallville. I think that the favourite of my views this past week that got me really excited for Man of Steel was my final Supes viewing of the Sereies Finale of Smallville. Those 2 hours sums up everything that is Clark Kent into becomeing the man of Tomorrow. So many emotions ran through that episode (I'm not gonna say I cried watching it again because it will make me look weak and I am too much of a Man I mean unless your a hot chick and you like that emotional stuff then yeah) it is really overwhelming. I mean waiting 10yrs for that one moment at the end. Means so much also because almost every episode I got to experience with Mocs, my sister, makes it that much more important. Which is another reason why I Love Superman so much. Ok enough Smallville talk, I could talk forever about that show but wont because this is Man of Steel week (but really do yourself a favor and watch The series finale if you are a true Superman fan) and the movie is going to be huge.

El Hombre de Acero has the studio and the promotional Juggernaut behind its flowing red cape. This flick already has made over 200 million dollars on promotional/sponsorship items alone, even before a minute of the flick hits the screen. This kind of promotion is set aside for the Big dogs like Star Wars and Marvels Avengers, so you know Geoff Johns and his colleagues are banking big time on this movie.
 We the People hope that this is the Superman movie we have been waiting for. To finally challenge DCs long time nemesis Marvel, only time will tell now. The movie has been filmed, promoted and hyped more than enough now, its time for use to see the end result. Will Superman beat out the current Summer Box Office Champ Iron-Man 3, will it be the first stepping stone by DC into the inevitable Justice League Movie or will its faith be the same as its predecessor Superman Returns? Stay Tuned to find out (or at least a couple of weeks until its been out long enough)
-Be early, Dont forget the trailers.
