"Iron Man" and "Man of Steel" are synonymous . . .

Rating: 9/10 (6 August 2013)

. . . since virtually everyone uses the words "iron" and "steel" as interchangeable terms. The 2013 movie MAN OF STEEL is perfect in every way, EXCEPT that its producers must be docked at least one point on a scale of 10 for trying to confuse the market for America's favorite super hero with that of some johnny-come-lately with an ethnic alter ego (i.e., "Tony Stark"). Nothing could sound more solidly American than "Clark Kent." While it's true that "man of steel" MAY have been used once or twice during the 1900s as a nickname for Superman, Babe Ruth had nicknames, too, such as "Sultan of Swat." But all the movies made about George Herman Ruth were given straight forward titles such as "THE BABE" or "THE BABE RUTH STORY," and nobody tried to steal National League fans by tagging a Ruth Bio-Pic with a title such as "Hammering Herman!" Yet Warner Brothers apparently called this flick MAN OF STEEL in the lame hope that Marvel Comics fan boys would mistake it for IRON MAN 4! This is so stupid on their part! D.C. Comics fan boys and Marvel Orcs are like the Sharks and the Jets, and no Hollywood tomfoolery will change that fact. Plus, you do NOT want them in the same theater. What is Warner Brothers trying to do--start WWIII??!!
