Warner Home Video Releases Superman/Batman: Apocalypse DVD

I've been so busy that I haven't updated my blog with what I've been doing.

But I did a very cool write up on the release of Warner Home Video's Superman/Batman: Apocalypse Original movie DVD.

Tim Daly [Private Practice, Wings] voices Superman and Kevin Conroy [China Beach] voices Batman. Ed Asner lends his voice to Granny Goodness, which is a strange name for the henchman of the villain.

Villain Darkseid is voiced by Andre Braugher [Men of a Certain Age, Homicide]

This movie sounds exciting. It also has Batman and Superman buddies, working together to find the kidnapped Kara, voiced by Summer Glau [Firefly, Serenity]. In their interviews, both Kevin and Tim talked about the friendship between Batman and Superman and how they were buddies because they are the only ones who can understand each other's position.

Well, you know how I love male/male buddy stuff, so I've requested a screener of the movie so I can see how it is.

Men of a Certain Age - PaleyFest2010 Tribute to a Unique Show


Tonight I attended my third and last for the year PaleyFest2010 tribute. But it was for a unique show on the air, so it was quite worth it. Men of a Certain Age is not the kind of show I would normally watch, but it speaks truth for not only men, but women as well.

I wrote up an article about it, which you can find here: http://prime-time-dramas.suite101.com/article.cfm/men-of-a-certain-age-reaches-beyond-sex--age

Due to space limitations, I couldn't write up everything on the panel, so here are some deleted tidbits:

I forget the original context, but Scott brought up that Andre Braugher had just come off of doing Shakespeare in the Park. This prompted Mike Royce to remark that Scott had come in and intimidated them by dropping Matt Damon's name and that he had just come from filming The Informant. Scott protested that what was he supposed to do, as Andre had been doing Shakespeare in the Park... so he (meaning Scott) had to use what he had. Everyone laughed with him. Another cute thing he did several times upon answering questions was turn to Mike Royce and ask if he still had a job. Mike would shake his head yes, and Scott would smile and say good.
