Trailer For Superhero Family Comedy “Zoom” Starring Tim Allen
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… I think the comic book movie trend is on the verge of imploding, and these cheesy superhero parody movies are going to be the nail in the coffin. Trust me, once Tim Allen enters the picture, you know the end is nigh. He is starring in a new family-friendly comedy called Zoom, about a group of kids with super powers who are taken away to a secret training facility where they are prepped for a mission to save the world. Allen is the retired superhero Captain Zoom, who is brought in as their mentor to teach them to work as a team. Yes, this looks very similar to the movie Sky High that came out last summer. Who knows, maybe it will be a hit with the kids… but if you ask me it’s a big pile of crap! The thought did cross my mind though, that if they keep doing these kid superhero movies, someone should look into a big screen adaptation of the Marvel comic Runaways (written by Brian K. Vaughn), which would actually make a pretty cool family flick. Just my two cents. Zoom hits theatres on August 11th.

yeah i think that this one will blow the superhero industry, especially since kurt russell already did this in Sky High. thumbs down without seeing it!
