Secret Origins: DC Comics Documentary

[Olly H 82]

I uploaded the segment where the DC comic artists discuss Superman the movie.

I saw this at a Best Buy. Is it worth picking up? I love documentaries.

[Olly H 82]

yeah its worth getting, very good doc.

Thanks, Olly. That was a great clip. STM not only had great talent put into it but great sincerity all the way down from the very top from Donner and Reeve. It'll be interesting to see if "Man of Steel" has that same king of care and respect put into its craftsmanship.

I love how STM wanted to be as modern as possible but it had no interest in desperately trying to be hip or trendy. Its a kind of thinking most modern films lack.

Is there a segment dedicated to Batman (1989)? Could you post that? Please?

It's just recycled material from previous documentaries when it comes to the films. It would have been cool if they branched out more and got other opinions.

Do they talk about other DC heroes as well? Like (ahem) Batman and Wonder Woman?

Yeah they do, it's really worth a watch. I never knew there was so much bongdage in WW comics, kinky stuff back in the day.

William Marston, WW's creator, was into stuff like female submission and the erotic nature of it. He basically had two "wives." He also did work that helped in the development of the polygraph. All this made its way into his work on Wonder Woman.

Yeah, they go into this a fair bit in the documentary. He had some weird logic that meant that through submission women were empowered.
