55. Superman På Film & IronHeart - Månadens Maclunkey

bout it

Look! It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's our main podcast review for this week for James Gunn's "Superman" starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult, Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion & Isabela Merced. Joining me for this review are Sara Clements, Josh Parham, Cody Dericks, Giovanni Lago & Brendan Hodges. There's a lot to discuss as Gunn gives us not only a new standalone Superman film but also attempts to reboot DC's universe on a whole new path into the future. What did we think of it? Please tune in as we discuss the story, its themes and parallels to today's modern world, the casting of these iconic characters and their performances, the action sequences, and visual effects, the score, including the use of John Williams' iconic theme for the Man of Steel, the future of the franchise, its awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Thank you for listening, and enjoy!

Superman '25 w/ Kolby Mac - Gunn's Big Gamble - Ep 483

DC, which for the best part of two decades has failed to put together a cinematic universe of comic book adaptations to rival Marvel's MCU, regroups and goes again with director James Gunn in charge of what will be known as the DCU - and what better superhero to introduce the new brand than the original: Superman.

David Corenswet's performance and physique are extremely appealing, recalling an era before steroids and dehydration were considered compulsory in order for a man to be thought of as sexy. We appreciate the film's lightness of tone and sense of humour, although one of us argues that the whole experience is so audiovisually hyperactive and loud that the tone doesn't support all the jokes, and it's simply exhausting to endure. We also discuss wokeness, the right wing's determination to have a culture war, and obvious parallels between Lex Luthor's villainy and that of Donald Trump; destruction of cities and the concomitant human cost; what made the previous Lex Luthor interesting; and why putting on glasses is an effective method of disguise.

Recorded on 13th July 2025.

447 - Superman (2025)

“Superman” has finally hit theaters and it's got its lovers and haters, but where do Josh and BComp stand on it? It's a special edition of We Got Issues that breaks down the comics and stories surrounding the film.

James Gunn’s “Superman” breakdown and review! We Got Issues #14

It begins...and we're keen.

The Slice of Cherry Guys are on record as card-carrying DC Comics fans, but even we weren't prepared for just how much goofy *fun* this movie is. James Gunn makes an assured start to the new DC film-verse with a big, broad, heart-on-sleeve take on the Man of Steel.

Chris argues this is the right kind of edgy-family fun kids need more of these days. Dave waxes lyrical about his favourite character's new incarnation. At the end of the day, we both agree - the new Superman rules.

You will believe a man can fly.

2025 Summer Movie Roundup

Steffan and Gavia discuss the first good Superman movie since the Christopher Reeve era, a charming action-comedy from 'Guardians of the Galaxy' director James Gunn. Leaning into zany comicbook lore and the relationship between Clark Kent and Lois Lane, this reboot makes some vague attempts at political commentary - but is mostly about resetting Hollywood's vision of Superman as a lovable American icon.

Ep. 322: James Gunn's Superman

Unconcerned about sincerity, backstory and lore, Superman kicks off Gunn's DC run with a bang.

Episode 1003: Superman

#superman2025 #jamesgunn #dcuniverse 
There was a lot riding on James Gunn's first swing at Superman. It's the first major motion picture in his DC Universe and would mark a dramatic change of tone from Zack Snyder's last projects with everyone's favorite Kryptonian. Fortunately for all involved, it was a big hit at the box office --- but did it put wind in our capes? 

As two nerds for movies, comics, and comic book movies, you'll want to stick around and share your thoughts on not just this movie, but what it hints at for the future of this new chapter for DC Comics on the silver screen.

SUPERMAN 2025 SPOILERCAST FULL REVIEW!!! | One Reel In Podcast

What makes a great Superman movie? Over the decades, filmmakers as different as Richard Donner, Richard Lester, Bryan Singer, and Zack Snyder have struggled to answer that question (to varying degrees of success).

Now, director James Gunn ("Guardians of the Galaxy") offers his take. Super-fans Bennett Campbell Ferguson, Ray Gill Jr., and Morgan Shaunette sit down to discuss the cinematic legacy of the last son of Krypton...and Gunn's place in the pantheon.

What Makes a Great Superman Movie w/ Ray Gill Jr. and Morgan Shaunette

In this episode, the boys are back together, recapping the summer movie season with takes on Superman, Weapons, and Fantastic Four. They share their experiences, give non-spoiler reviews, and dive into what the future of the DC Universe might look like. Is Weapons the movie of the summer? Is DC finally on the right track? One of the guys even declares that the Marvel Universe is officially dead.

They also debate which Adam Sandler movie deserves another sequel and swap their favorite quotes from the endlessly hilarious Naked Gun. All this while sipping on their go-to summertime beers.

It’s a long-awaited reunion after nearly five years cheers!

AT LONG LAST: THE SUPERMAN (2025) REVIEW

Superman (2025)

We're Chris and Dave - best friends, gamers, and opinionated pop culture people!

Each week we talk about something that catches our fancy: movies, TV, video games, music, nothing's off limits. We often disagree with each other but we *always* have good chats with strong opinions and perspectives.

Settle in, order a slice and get a damn good coffee to go with it!

Just some guys talking about movies. As if there wasn't enough podcasts about that!

A podcast by NextBestPicture.com that reviews the latest film releases and discusses various topics within the world of film and the awards race.

Overinvested is a weekly podcast from pop culture obsessives Gavia Baker-Whitelaw and Morgan Leigh Davies. Each episode, Gavia and Morgan dive into a film, TV show, or comic they just can't stop thinking about.

MMO is talk radio for movie fans with weekly news shows, reviews, previews, and special guests. We celebrate the Oscars by making awards season year round, without the stuffiness. If you love cinema, if you love showbiz, welcome home.

"I have this romantic idea of the movies as a conjunction of place, people and experiences, all different for each of us, a context in which individual and separate beings try to commune, where the individual experience overlaps with the communal and where that overlapping is demarcated by how we measure the differing responses between ourselves and the rest of the audience: do they laugh when we don’t (and what does that mean?); are they moved when we feel like laughing (and what does that say about me or the others) etc. The idea behind this podcast is to satiate the urge I sometimes have when I see a movie alone – to eavesdrop on what others say. What do they think? How does their experience compare to mine? Snippets are overhead as one leaves the cinema and are often food for thought. A longer snippet of such an experience is what I hope to provide: it’s two friends chatting immediately after a movie. It’s unrehearsed, meandering, slightly convoluted, certainly enthusiastic, and well informed, if not necessarily on all aspects a particular work gives rise to, certainly in terms of knowledge of cinema in general and considerable experience of watching different types of movies and watching movies in different types of ways. It’s not a review. It’s a conversation." - José Arroyo.

"I just like the sound of my own voice." - Michael Glass.

Welcome to The One Beer in Podcast! 

We're two best friends that enjoy getting on each others' nerves and talking crap while enjoying a good beer (or two). This podcast is your invitation into our colorful conversations that range from PlayStation to Internet politics. Strap in -- this is very much a conversational podcast, as we take a layman's point-of-view and discuss our interests: beer, video games, movies, tech, entertainment and basically any rabbit hole that we may wander into along the way. 

We often end our podcast with a beer review, and sometimes sneak in a bonus brew, so stay tuned. 

Cheers
