twenty-something

Superman Returns is amazing. Breath-taking. Damn-near perfect. I could gush and gush and gush all night -- but it's after 2a.m.. I'm tired. And I'm on a kryptonite high.

...

So I liked it. A lot.

You must must MUST go see this film, and soon. Go see it this week/weekend. Go see it three times. This movie deserves your time and your funds. It deserves be the biggest blockbuster of the summer -- hell, the biggest blockbuster ever.

From those opening credits to that last shot... I was smiling. A big goofy grin, I'm sure. I was captivated, forgetting that I was in an IMAX theater in New York, surrounded by 600 other people. I simply got lost in the film. I even cried a little, not gonna lie. I was the four-year-old with the Superman birthday cake again. And I was happy. Hell, I am happy.

Superman Returns delivered.

So apparently now Superman Returns two days earlier -- on June 28 -- according AICN and the official site.

Those paying attention will note that June 28th is my birthday. I'll be twenty-six with a geek-boner for Superman. What an amazing b-day present from Warner Brothers!

So now the real question is: Which lucky New Yorker(s) will accompany me to the midnight showing?

27 days...

Hm. 26 in 27 on the 28th. Weird.
