S6 E1 - March of the Vampire

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.

IS SUPERMAN GOOD??? And a review of SUPERMAN SECRET ORIGIN! - 171.2

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.

Superman 2025 (Slice of Cherry Guys #64)

In an age of superhero gluttony, do we need another Superman? Yes! In fact, Superman has exactly what the Marvel Universe has been lacking lately: fun. And James Gunn is the perfect director for the job. Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy is still one of the best comic book movies ever made, and he brings that same magic here.

Everyone knows the traditional Superman tropes by now, which is why Gunn gets rid of all of that and cuts right to the chase. In Gunn’s take on the character, Superman has already saved the world a few times. But this time, he faces his ultimate foe. Many have accused Superman of being political. Are those criticisms warranted? We dive into the controversy head on.

Join Jon as he discusses the renaming of HBO Max, putting the fun back in superhero movies, the sincerity of David Corenswet, what it means to love your neighbor, the amazing Rachel Brosnahan, forming consistent beliefs, Nicholas Hoult over the years, the redemption of Hitler, and the politics of Superman.

Superman

We're joined by Dave to pitch some wedding movies this week!

Other film pitched include;

The Little Chapel in the Big Hole
Always the Usher, Never the Us

Episode 531: You May Now Kiss The Bread (With Dave Bulmer)

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!

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!

Life's a Pitch brings together bizarre, strange and ultimately un-makeable film ideas and pitches for your enjoyment! Every week our two hosts, Matt and Tom are given a ridiculous film title from which to improvise a movie plot. Will it be utter rubbish? Or will it be the defining creative work of a generation? Only time will tell!

The days of counting swear words are over.  Welcome to a fresh voice in film and faith.  Join Cinema Faith founder Jonathan Butrin and cinephile Tim Nelson as they discuss film through a Christian lens.

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

The Media Lunch Break is your best resource for geek news, reviews, comedy, and the Oxford comma! We'll argue the oldest of debates: DC vs Marvel, Mac vs PC, Michael Bay vs our collective childhoods.
We're here to serve YOU!
And ourselves.
Mostly ourselves.
But hopefully you like it too! So sit back, relax, and listen to two idiots riff on topics they know nothing 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.

Two guys. One likes beer. Both like movies. Both things get reviewed.

Welcome movie friends! Join Scott as he goes through the wonderful world of movies including lists, old favorites, scene analysis, and tropes.

We're Holt and Wallt, two idiots with a comedy podcast and whole lotta nothin' to say about life, films, board game design and sourdough sandwiches.
