DC released the first trailer for Superman today, and I am not completely sold. But I am also not the target audience because I am not into superhero movies.
However, if they included more of the dog Krypto in it, I probably would go to see it on 7/11 because I am sucker for movies with animals.
While I will be spending the day downing free Slurpees at 7-Elevens, it looks like fans of the DC Universe will be just as happy watching the James Gunn relaunch of the Man of Steel in movie theaters.
On July 11th, Superman is flying into movie theaters. However, we are not really talking about the Man of Steel. Instead, we are talking about Krypto, his dog!
Milk-Bone saw an opportunity to give the Superdog his own treat. So starting this month, your best friend can be special too by enjoying the limited edition bones that will give them superpowers.
Maybe not superpowers, but they will feel like a superhero with each bite!
“For over a century, Milk-Bone® has been trusted to help pet parents make everyday moments with their dogs feel extraordinary,” said Gail Hollander, CMO at J.M. Smucker. “Now, with the SUPERMAN partnership, Milk-Bone® is honoring the strength, loyalty and love that our four-legged companions show us every day.”
Along with the super box, you can download the free online comic book, Superman: A Friendship Unleashed, which tells the story of Superman and Krypto!
At the rate that superhero movies are going to the dogs, soon we are going to have to have comic conventions dedicated to DogPool and Krypto! And I am okay with that, if they also include Church from Pet Sematary.
When I heard that James Gunn was taking over the DC Universe and giving us a Superman movie, I was excited to see what he was going to do with the Man of Steel.
Today, we got the first look at his movie, and it looks like the superhero is going to get beat up a lot. I am not used to seeing a bloodied Superman, and I am not sure I like it. I want him to be indestructible like he has always been
However, on a positive note, we will finally get to see if he is faster than a speeding bullet in bed! We all want to know, don’t we?
What did you think of the trailer for the blockbuster film that comes out on 7/11?
And I thought yesterday’s teaser looked a lot better than the full trailer.
James Gunn’s Superman is getting a dog, and Krypto is going to be a lot like his own rescue, Ozu.
Ozu was adopted around the same time that Gunn started writing Clark Kent’s story, and the little terror was making his life interesting and inspiring his writing.
“Ozu, who came from a hoarding situation in a backyard with 60 other dogs & never knew human beings, was problematic to say the least. He immediately came in & destroyed our home, our shoes, our furniture – he even ate my laptop. It took a long time before he would even let us touch him,” Gunn wrote. “I remember thinking, ‘Gosh, how difficult would life be if Ozu had superpowers?’ – and thus Krypto came into the script & changed the shape of the story as Ozu was changing my life.”
The Head of the DC Universe has chosen now to make the announcement because it is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month. And you never know how that pup is going to change your life. But the one thing we do know is that it will change your life for the better.
And on that note, Ozu is a much better behaved dog!
Before Christopher Reeve lived in Metropolis as Superman, he was living in Rosehill in Love Our Life. How handsome was the 22-year-old in 1975 before he became a household name?
