Nothing is official yet, but it’s being reported that Jason Momoa, star of HBO’s Game of Thrones and the Conan the Barbarian remake, is in talks to join the Man of Steel sequel, which is currently known only as Batman vs. Superman.

Who the actor is in talks to play is not yet known, but if Momoa were to sign on, he’d join returning stars like Henry Cavill and Amy Adams as Superman and Lois Lane, Ben Affleck taking over the role of Batman from Christian Bale, and newcomer Gal Godot, who was recently announced as the brand new Wonder Woman.

So while we wait to find out who Momoa could be playing, it seems a perfect opportunity for a little geek discussion.

“What was I supposed to do, just let them die?” … “Maybe.”

That’s part of a conversation had between a young Clark Kent and his adoptive father Jonathan Kent (Kevin Costner) after Clark saves a bus full of kids from certain death, and a good indicator of what kind of movie Man of Steel, the latest take on iconic superhero Superman, aims to be.

Directed by Zack Snyder, the movie opens on the planet Krypton with Jor-El (Russell Crowe) witnessing the birth of his son and then going to try and warn a council of leaders of the planet’s impending doom before General Zod (Michael Shannon) attempts a coup and things begin escalating toward a state of chaos and destruction. Thinking quickly, Jor-El recovers a crucial item in preserving the Kryptonian race and sends it along with his newborn child, Kal-El, the first naturally born baby on the planet in centuries, off to planet Earth.

There he lives for the next 33 years, dealing with many of the things we all dealt with growing up, while also trying to keep his special abilities as secret as possible. But when General Zod finally locates the adult Kal-El (Henry Cavill) he comes to Earth to get what he’s been seeking all these years, no matter what the cost.

Hitting stores on Tuesday, The Dark Knight Trilogy: Ultimate Collector’s Edition Blu-ray box set features each movie from the Christopher Nolan-directed trilogy that broke global box office records and became one of the touchstones for the modern superhero event movie and their original BR bonus features spread out over five discs. Exclusive to this collection is a bonus sixth disc containing several newly-produced supplements including a 25-minute conversation between Nolan and director Richard Donner (Superman: The Movie) and the feature-length documentary The Fire Rises: The Creation and Impact of The Dark Knight Trilogy.

In the section of the new doc devoted to the casting process for the trilogy fans of Nolan’s Bat-films will be surprised to find Christian Bale‘s audition for the title role in 2005’s Batman Begins. You can watch it here below.

People who use an iPhone have become accustomed to hearing the voice of Siri whenever they need help or have a good joke. Spike Jonze‘s Her centers on a man (Joaquin Phoenix) who falls in love with a Siri-like AI. Of course when that AI is voiced by Scarlett Johansson, it’s not too hard to fall madly in love with a piece of software.

The trailer feels very simple telling the story of the main character, who has anti-social issues after going through a huge break up. After purchasing a new computer and answering a few personality questions, he “meets” Samantha. This isn’t the kind of relationship we would normally see between a human and a computer. There is a real sense of pain these characters go through as they develop a close and tender relationship but suffer because they are unable to have any sort of physical contact with each other.

The first trailer for Her has been released, and you can watch it below.

Directed by Zack Snyder (Watchmen) and written by David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight Trilogy), Man of Steel stars Henry Cavill as Clark Kent a.k.a Superman a.k.a Kal-El, a Kryptonian sent to Earth by his parents as an infant to survive the destruction of his homeworld.

Raised with the values of his adoptive parents, Jonathan (Kevin Coster) and Martha (Diane Lane) Kent of Smallville, Kansas, Clark is alienated because of his unique gifts and struggles to find his own place in life. When the planet is attacked by hostile Kryptonians led by General Zod (Michael Shannon), Kal-El must embrace his destiny and be a symbol of hope for Earth and its people.

Snyder’s science-fiction drama begins on Krypton, where Jor-El (Russell Crowe) is aiding his wife Lara Lor-Van (Ayelet Zurer) in giving birth. Their son, Kal-El, is the first natural childbirth in centuries – an illegal, secret act of creation on a planet where children are engineered to serve specific roles in Kryptonian society. As the dying planet inches toward a cataclysmic extinction-level event, Jor-El and his wife place baby Kal-El in a spacecraft bearing the seal of the House of El (the “S” that becomes Superman’s iconic emblem) and send him to Earth, an ancient outpost Kryptonians visited tens of thousands of years ago.
