‘Superman’ Lives In Henderson: Dean Cain Moves To Seven Hills
Look! In Seven Hills! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s the guy who used to play Superman! No, not that one. Or that one. And no not any of these ones. Dean Cain, that one. Yeah, he’s over living in Southern California and has bought a new pad in Henderson.
Dean just plunked down nearly four million dollars ($3,995,000 to be exact) on a pretty swanky pad. The 6,557 square foot home is absolutely gorgeous. Featuring 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, the home has a “walk on water” entry with a walkway flanked by water features on either side.
Once you get inside, the home is modern and drool-inducing. High ceilings, a feature wall featuring what appears to be a large TV that is dwarfed by the grandness of the room, expansive bedrooms and a modern kitchen. Strip views, yep. Home theater, you bet.
Walking outside, you’re greeted with several gorgeous features. Superman will be able to blast off from his rooftop deck or second floor walkway, with a spiral staircase to his pool and putting green. The pocket patio doors to the dining and living area open up to make the outside feel in, and inside feel out. It really is an incredible house, and likely a fraction of the cost that it would be in Malibu, where he just sold his place.
Dean is joining Mark Wahlberg and many other celebrities that have quietly made their move into Clark County.
Why did Dean Cain move to Henderson?
Everyone has their reasons for moving to the valley. In this case, it seems more like he’s moving away from California. In an interview with Fox News, he lays his reasons on the line.
From high taxes and cost of living to homelessness and crime issues, he covers the gamut.
“The things that our leaders in California have been doing have driven out anybody who can really afford to get out,” Cain told Fox News. “People are flocking out of there in droves.”
Well, Dean. Welcome to the valley. As long as the A’s can fill their proposed new stadium enough and don’t leave us with the bill, your taxes should stay nice and low.
‘Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse:’ A Beautiful Web Of Destiny
Brooklyn's One and Only Spider-Man
As we are reunited with “Brooklyn’s one and only Spider-Man,” we see that Miles’ relationship with his parents is even more strained. After Miles abruptly leaves the meeting with parents and his guidance counselor to continue battling The Spot (voiced by Jason Schwartzman), his guidance counselor tells them, “He’s lying to you. And I think you know it.” Not long after, Gwen Stacy appears above Miles’ bed to ask if he wants to get out of there. Behind her, a portal to the multi-verse. Following his crush, he goes to the Spider-Man HQ, where he meets a pregnant, motorcycle-riding Spider-Woman AKA Jessica Drew (Issa Rae), Spider-Punk (voiced by Daniel Kaluuya), and Spider-Man India AKA Pavitr Prabhakar.

The Spot
We are introduced to The Spot in the trailer, in a scene where Miles tries to apprehend him in a bodega. The Spot can seemingly transport things through the spots within the black-hole ink blots on his body, making him a slippery foe for Miles. We also meet Spider-Man 2099 AKA Miguel O’Hara, who we aren’t sure is an ally or a villain. At the end of Into the Spiderverse, we saw Miguel monitoring the multi-verse and using a Dimensional Travel Watch that allows for travel through various dimensions. As the leader of the immense spider team, Miguel blatantly rejects Miles’ offer to join. Miguel tells Miles, “Being Spider-Man is a sacrifice. You have a choice between saving one person and saving every world.” Sounds very much like Kang the Conqueror’s philosophy of sacrificing people for the greater good of the universe. Responding in Spider-Man fashion, 15-year-old Miles says, “I can do both!”

Pushing The Narrative
In Across The Spider-Verse, Miles propels forward with his sense of self and his powers. As he says to Miguel in the trailer, “Everyone keeps telling me how my story is supposed to go! Nah, I’mma do my own thing.” Miguel isn’t the only one whose story we see develop, as Gwen Stacy’s return shows us more of her life in her universe. As with the return of Peter B. Parker, who now has an adorable infant daughter named Mayday.

Stunning Visuals
In the sequel, the animation is taken to the next level, with trippy watercolors and neon colors that change with the mood. From the striking comic book aesthetics of having the characters’ skin flecked with comic book dots, to the psychadelic fusion of animation techniques, the film’s distinct art styles are made even more compelling watching it in Dolby Vision. It was easy to be immersed in these jaw-dropping visuals that amplified the action scenes that much more.
