I still have to see THE WORLD'S END this week, but so far my favorite summer movie was MAN OF STEEL. I fall on the side of the folks who don't get too wrapped up in the "destruction porn" complaints and enjoyed the hell out of the film. It was absolutely the Superman movie I always wanted to see. Now, with a Superman/Batman movie on the horizon with the same team as MAN OF STEEL, I'm even more excited to see the universe continue. For those that are dying to see MAN OF STEEL from the comfort of their living room, your wait isn't that far off, as the film is now slated for a November release with all the trimmings. Below you'll find all the details, art, and official press release to whet your appetite for when MAN OF STEEL soars onto store shelves.
