Superman Movie Review | James Gunn ushers in new DC era and Superman - BUT IS ALL THE HYPE WORTHY?

Episode 132: DC Studios’ SUPERMAN

EPIC SUPERSIZED SUPERMAN ANALYSIS!
*Links in bio - please check out our video episodes on Spotify and YouTube

The year’s most eagerly anticipated film soars into theatres and Watch Skip Plus gives you a KRYPTON-sized critical analysis of the James Gunn-directed superhero epic. Eschewing pluses this week, WilDaBeast and Cupcake are joined by Pod-Father Sam U. Rai from the Gentleman’s Guide to Midnite Cinema podcast and “Fakest of Shemps” Jeremy (who guested on our recent Oscars episode and creamed us with his spot-on predictions). Get ready for a stripped-down (image-free) roundtable discussion about the pop culture impact of Superman, James Gunn as a filmmaker, the cast, the CGI, and whether this first film…the charter voyage for the new DC Studios (RIP Snyder-verse) and the first chapter of the proposed “Gods and Monsters” DC media-verse…is worthy of the hype/relaunch/reboot of a storied DC character or if it’s yet another failed attempt for DC and a misstep for Gunn (who has dabbled now in BOTH DC and Marvel franchises).

LOOK UP IN THE SKY….IT’S A BIRD! IT’S A PLANE! IT’S A NEW WATCH SKIP PLUS EPISODE!!!
(Editor’s note: HOW in the world is this review LONGER than the actual movie?)
