Friday’s openings: Superheroes and a Greek sequel

Battling superheroes and Greek jokes are on the tentative movie docket this week. The main movie openings scheduled to open Friday are as follows:

"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice": Zack Snyder ("300," "Man of Steel") directs this story, summed up so succinctly in the title, of a galactic being with super powers coming in conflict with, among others, a human vigilante equipped with a very cool bag of tricks. First question: Ben Affleck as Batman? Second question: Seriously?

"My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2": Apparently the world didn't get enough Greek stereotypes in Nia Vardalos' 2002 original (or in the short-lived 2003 TV sitcom) because, as IMDB announced, "A Portokalos family secret brings the beloved characters back together for an even bigger and Greeker wedding."

I'll have the final listings, including the Magic Lantern, when they're made available.
