EYES & TEARS....
There was a blind girl who hated herself because of being blind. She hated everyone except her boyfriend.
One day, the girl said that if she could only see the world, she would marry her boyfriend.
One lucky day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her!
Then she saw everything including her boyfriend.... Her boyfriend then asked her,
"Now that u can see, will you marry me?"
The girl was SHOCKED when she saw that her boyfriend was blind!
She said," I am sorry but i can't marry you because u are blind."
Her boyfriend walked away with tears... and said,
"Please just take care of my eyes...."
Why the World Needs Heroes?
Forget.
Dare to forget that we live in a world of high gas prices and credit card debt. Forget that computer generated dinosaurs are as commonplace as talking animals on television sets. Forget the percentages of divorces or risks of lung cancer. Forget that swearing, sex and immoral acts are a staple to modern entertainment as all these things are chemicals that pollute the soul.
Remember.
Remember when you were a child and finding a penny was like finding gold. Remember when you wondered why the sky was blue and were in awe that people didn't live in black and white before the invention of color photos. Remember when the worst part of your day was when you couldn't play in the rain. Remember when you didn't care what clothes you wore or who was impressed with your hair. Remember when life was simpler, when there was room in your daily schedule and list of responsibilities to believe in ghosts and Santa Claus and superheroes.
Why does the world need Heroes? Because sometimes heroes save more than our lives, sometimes they preserve our delicate and fleeting innocence.
Superman Returns Will be a Superhit
Today i went out to wash my car. Then my friend also joined me on the car wash place. We were talking about how we're gonna spend this day. Well, he asked me if i wanna join him to watch "Superman Returns". I said ok lets go. We went to our Nearest movie theater at Summit USJ. They do have a nice THX theater there.
I did watch the trailers of this new "Superman Returns". The Actor didn't impress me that much at all. So actually me and my friend both didn't expect something special from this movie. Anyway we bought the Ticket and took our lunch. Then we move ahead for the movie.
I was amazed, surprized and overjoyed as same as my friend. This, then, is as it should be: An icon brought from the printed page to the big screen by talented people who respect the character but also feel liberated to try new things. Superman Returns is amazing entertainment, a vital, exciting vision of a culture legend that brings respect for the past and re-invention for the future to the screen in equal measure. Superman Returns isn't just great entertainment movie but it's an excellence of great film making, with the look, attitude and feel of the final production all perfectly blended to create a bold, engaging, astonnishing, 155+minute long daydream of heroism, bravery and love.
Part of the challenge in making Superman Returns is that you're not competing with this year's light entertainment when making a Superman film; you're competing with the past 60-plus years of light entertainment, including prior iterations of the story you're trying to tell. Unlike Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins, Superman Returns isn't a re-boot of the franchise: From the start, we're told that Superman has been away for five years, seeking out the ruins of his destroyed home planet Krypton. Singer crafted the story for this film along with screenwriters Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris, and it's immediately clear that they're selectively cherry-picking from the mythology -- specifically, from the Christopher Reeve films of the 1970s -- and using selected moments as a foundation to rebuild the character while still plunging us into the middle of yet another thrilling adventure. Superman, Lois and Lex all have a shared past, of which it's assumed we're aware; at the same time, the film is agreeably cloudy on specific details -- the sensibility perfectly replicates the feel of lying in a hammock on a hot day reading a random issue of the Superman comic book. We know the players; we know the past. And we truly, sincerely, want to find out what happens next.
Superman (Brandon Routh) is back from his lengthy voyage, and some things have changed: Lois Lane (Kate Bosworth) is now engaged to Richard White (James Marsden) and raising their son Jason (Tristan Lake Leabu). Some things haven't changed: The Daily Planet is still under the stewardship of life-long newspaper man Perry White (Frank Langella); Superman's alter-ego Clark Kent is still a bumbling, stumbling reporter for the Planet ... and evil genius Lex Luthor (Kevin Spacey) is still plotting to re-make the world in his power-mad image while punishing Superman for the galling fact of his moral and physical superiority over mere mortals.
The appeal of Superman is multi-faceted, but the most obvious one is the fantasy of physical power -- to be faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, to leap tall buildings in a single bound. But when the character of Superman is well-done -- as it unquestionably is here -- there's another layer that adds richness, depth and contrast: The fantasy of moral power. If we were faster than a speeding bullet, would we hurl ourselves between one and its intended target? In the best treatments of the character, and in this film, Superman is not a hero because he can do amazing things; rather, he is a hero because he does heroic things, to the best of his ability. This film knows that; it also challenges the mere mortals around Superman to do their best in the name of the greater good, a challenge they all rise to meet in a way that makes for viscerally compelling storytelling. It's a mix of Greek myth and all-American virtues, as if Norman Rockwell drew the adventures of Hercules, or if Achilles was an aw-shucks farm boy with an apple-pie smile.
Lex's plot involves turning Superman's own past against him, using stolen Kryptonian technology to create new continents on the ashes of the old -- a necropolis whose stark and terrible beauty even includes a fail-safe against Superman. What Superman Returns has -- and so many bad superhero films, like the nauseating Fantastic Four, do not -- are, for lack of a better phrase, stakes on the table. How do you tell an interesting story about a character with infinite power? In Superman Returns, the answer's simple: Challenge those powers to the utmost -- and challenge the heart of the man who wields them.
Superman Returns is a little light on star power -- Routh's casting must have been, in part, because he fit the physical template of the character. At the same time, Routh's not just a pair of tights; he nails the 'Big Blue Boy Scout' charm of Superman, saving people from harm and then dispensing public service announcement homilies with a straight face. Routh gets Clark Kent, too -- the bumbling, the stumbling, the awkwardness. There's a brief moment where we witness Clark Kent's table manners that, in a split second, makes you appreciate Superman's life-long ruse and how much fun it must be to pretend to be Clark. Bosworth is a pretty slight screen presence normally, but here -- thanks to Harris and Dougherty -- she gets to have a frazzled-yet-flinty magnetism that helps her moments stick. Lois was a little hurt when Superman left without saying goodbye, leading to her Pulitzer-winning op-ed piece "Why the World Doesn't Need Superman." Richard asks her: "Were you in love with him?" Her response is succinct: "He's Superman. Everyone was in love with him."
As for Spacey -- the biggest name in the cast -- his portrait of Lex Luthor is a well-dressed, gleeful spin on Milton's Satan: Lex would rather rule in Hell than serve in Heaven, and even make a few bucks off it. After directing the first two X-Men films, Singer knows how to get the right kind of tone out of his comic book heroes and villains -- this isn't regular ham; it's more like carefully-aged, thinly-sliced, expertly presented prosciutto. And Spacy -- who never lets the blast he's obviously having get in the way of delivering real menace and tension -- serves it up with style
