The basics of staying healthy seem pretty easy to follow: Eat well, exercise, get enough sleep and you should be on the right track, right? Surprisingly, it can be more complicated than that. Oftentimes the very choices we make to benefit our health can be the same ones that hurt us in the long run. Read on to learn which unexpected habits—like brushing your teeth after every meal or slipping into a pair of comfortable sandals—might be causing you harm.

9 Habits That Can Do More Harm Than Good

Once a superhero/fairy tale reboot finishes up its casting, the next step in the process is to release an official photo of the actor or actress in costume to convince the audience that they look the part. “The Amazing Spider-Man” did this, and so did the untitled Snow White filmwith Lily Collins. Today, it’s “Man of Steel,” which may have a slightly higher bar to get over since its star, Henry Cavill, is a British actorarguably playing the most American of all characters. So it’s probably no surprise that thefirst image unveiled by Warner Bros. emphasizes how much butt this new Superman is going to kick.

 

Much like the initial shot of Andrew Garfield as Spidey, Cavill is most definitely not smiling. Taking its cue from Christopher Nolan’s Batman series, it sure looks like “Man of Steel” will lean heavily on a brooding, no-nonsense treatment of the man from Krypton. (This isn’t that shocking considering that Nolan developed the story for “Man of Steel” and is a producer, although Zack Snyder will be directing.)

Unlike the original Christopher Reeve films (or Bryan Singer’s 2006 homage, “Superman Returns”), there’s nothing playful or jokey about this image: Superman is surrounded by wreckage, and he looks hungry for a fight. It’s also worth pointing out that, unlike Snyder’s “300” or “Sucker Punch,” this “Man of Steel” shot doesn’t boast a hyper-stylized, graphic-novel-influenced look. It’s as if the studio is saying, “Don’t worry, we’re keeping things real simple. You liked ‘The Dark Knight,’ right? This’ll be like that.”

As for Cavill, he definitely passes muster as the Man of Steel. But, to be fair, this is just a still image: Anyone worried that a British actor shouldn’t be playing Superman won’t be swayed until he actually starts speaking. But even the skeptics have to admit that the guy has the right hair for the role: black, shiny, full. You know, heroic-esque. It’s amazing how much a small thing like that can matter.

Sorry, “World War Z” fans: It seems that the movie, which will star Brad Pitt and be directed by Marc Forster (“Quantum of Solace”), may be very different from the best-selling book by Max Brooks. And movie buffs on the Web are certainly rising up like an undead army to denouce the not-yet-finished horror flick. The novel charts a U.N. worker’s accounts of oral histories of a decade-long zombie war. The movie, according to bloggers who saw the press release, will take place as the zombie world war is breaking out when there is still time to stop it — completely different from the premise — and the timing — of the book.  There had been reports that this atypical monster tale would certainly be a challenge to put into film. Paramont’s seeming solution? As the AV Club sees it, “Make a typical zombie movie anyway.” Movies.com quotes the press release as explaining the film this way: “The story revolves around United Nations employee Gerry Lane (Pitt), who traverses the world in a race against time to stop the Zombie pandemic that is toppling armies and governments and threatening to decimate humanity itself.” Comments were, well, apocalyptic. On the Movies.com blog, a typical negative swipe: “Based on Paramount’s plot synopsis, the film should say ‘Inspired by the same stuff that inspired the book World War Z by Max Brooks.’” Another disappointed commenter wrote, “When I heard they were going to make this into a movie I was really excited to see what this would look like on film. I’m no longer excited. Thanks, Paramount.” Still another fan noted, “Of course we’re all still seeing it, but what we’re seeing isn’t ‘World War Z,’ plain and simple.” Interest in the zombie flick grew on Yahoo! with news of the controversy: In the last day, lookups all increased for “world war z,” “world war z movie,” and “world war z movie trailer.” Brad Pitt has already arrived in Glasgow to begin filming the monster-war movie. The massive enterprise includes a cast and crew of 1,200, fake sets that remake the U.K. city into “war-torn” Philadelphia, and plenty of locals to play undead extras. It’s certainly possible the press release doesn’t do the cinematic plot justice. At least, fans of the book can certainly hope that’s the case. The zombie doomsday movie is set to open on December 21, 2012.

Falling in love with you is the second best thing that has ever happened to me. Finding you is the first

You can quit on school, you can quit on your friends, but you cannot quit on yourself. If you won’t even believe in yourself, then who will?
