This week on The Flickcast , Chris and Joe are back at the same Bat-time and the same Bat-channel to talk all-thing Superman/Batman. That’s right, a big casting announcement has come down from the Warner Bros. tower and it’s one that’s sure to spark controversy.

We won’t keep you in suspense: the actor chosen to play Batman in Zack Snyder’s Superman/Batman is none other than Ben Affleck.

Of course, Chris and Joe debate and discuss this one quite a bit, but their final conclusions and opinions just may surprise you. They also discuss J.J. Abrams Star Wars and a whole lot more stuff that you’ll just have to tune in to find out.

This weeks picks include Joe’s pick of the great works of Elmore Leonard, who sadly passed away this week. They include TV’s Justified and the novels Get Shorty and Outta Sight. Chris’ pick this week is the 1974 Francis Ford Coppola film The Conversation.

This week on The Flickcast Chris and Joe are back for more and ready to get down and geeky. In this episode it’s pretty much all Comic-Con 2013 all the time as the boys recap the major happenings during the show.

They go way in depth and talk about all the things they loved, and not-so-loved, about the Con. These include, of course, the Superman / Batman movie announcement, Avengers 2: Age of Ultron and a whole lot more. Plus, they spend some time discussing the power of Robert Downey, Jr., the upcoming S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series, who should play Batman now that Christian Bale is supposedly done and the upcoming Simpsons / Family Guy crossover.

In addition, the boys made some picks this week including Joe’s pick of the Samsung Soundbar and Chris’ pick of the fantasy novel Magician by Raymond E. Feist.

Whatever happened to The Man of Tomorrow? In the late ’70s, when Richard Donner and Mario Puzo were making their Superman movie, they realized that the lead character, when in costume, lacked a personality. He’s tough, he’s fast, he can fly, and those abilities define him. It may be impressive as spectacle, but it’s a hard lead for an audience to connect with, and so they chose to focus on Clark Kent — in short and in a bad pun, theirs was a classic because it was more Man than Super. Now, with Man of Steel, Snyder, and his writers David S. Goyer and Christopher Nolan, do precisely the opposite.

The film opens with the usual prologue, though seeming far more extended here, on Krypton. Jor-El (Russell Crowe) is arguing with the planet’s elders about mining the core of their world — he warns them that the planet has only weeks left before it implodes, and as soon as he’s dismissed, General Zod (Michael Shannon) appears and starts blowing the elder’s palace up. Jor-El escapes to his wife Lara (Ayelet Zurer), who has just given birth to their son, Kal-El, Knowing the planet is doomed, they place him in a shuttle and shoot him off to earth, but not before Jor implants a whatsit codex into the ship.

Zod attempts to intercept the shuttle, killing Jor-El in the process, but is overpowered, tried, and sentenced to the Phantom Zone, a kind of black-hole prison. Krypton implodes, and Kal makes his way to earth, specifically to the Kansas farm of Jonathan and Martha Kent (Kevin Costner and Diane Lane), who adopt the boy and impart to him the lessons of compassion and anonymity. I will say that it’s clever of Goyer and Nolan to handle Kal-El’s childhood in flashback, lest we sit through another hour or so of an origin story whose end we already know.

It’s getting harder and harder to contain our enthusiasm for Zack Snyder’s upcoming Man of Steel. We’re really expecting it to be something awesome.

Well, most of us are anyway. Still, even with Wally’s apparent lack of enthusiasm, we can still bring you the latest trailer from the movie, an exclusive one from the folks at Nokia.

Yeah, that means some Nokia advertisign and probably Supes using a Nokia phone in the movie. He also goes to Burger King apparently. Whatev.

Anyway, Check out the trailer after the break. Look for Man of Steel to arrive in theaters next week.
