SUPERMAN Movie Review

1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,840
I know he's a Superman, but you
know who's a good boy?

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,520
Oh no.
Crypto, OH.

3
00:00:06,520 --> 00:00:09,000
Yeah, I didn't know where that
was going.

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:13,160
It's just a pop.
He's.

5
00:00:18,870 --> 00:00:22,310
Always listening and thank you
for listening to this episode of

6
00:00:22,310 --> 00:00:24,470
A Bite of I'm Derek.
That's Noah.

7
00:00:24,750 --> 00:00:29,110
And today we are talking about
James Gunn's Superman.

8
00:00:29,110 --> 00:00:33,840
Yes, Superman DCU has officially
started.

9
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,200
We have lots of thoughts.
We are literally fresh from

10
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,320
seeing the movie.
We saw a mirror like hour ago.

11
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,160
We have lots of thoughts.
Before we get into it, make sure

12
00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:45,360
you're following comments.
Are you excited for James Gunn

13
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:47,240
Superman?
If you've seen it, what do you

14
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,360
think?
Let us know down below in the

15
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,880
comments.
If you're listening to this,

16
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,920
follow us leave a review.
There's many ways that you can

17
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:59,080
consume this media here, so
spoilers ahead for Superman as a

18
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,120
character and definitely James
Gunn Superman.

19
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:03,840
Absolutely.
All right, so let us officially

20
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,760
take a bite of Superman.
Written and directed by James

21
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,320
Gunn.
Superman's place in the world is

22
00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:12,480
questioned after he stops a war
between two foreign nations.

23
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,480
Using these rising tensions and
many under the table deals, Lex

24
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,160
Luthor attacks Superman in as
many ways as he can.

25
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,560
His envy drives him to not only
put Superman's existence in

26
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,200
jeopardy, but the Earth's as
well.

27
00:01:25,320 --> 00:01:28,160
Earth's.
Earth's that Lex with her, He's

28
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,640
got a chip on his shoulder.
Let me tell you something.

29
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,120
He.
Really does.

30
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:36,760
So angry, So angry.
OK, So what did you think of the

31
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,280
first starting off point for the
DCU let?

32
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,720
Me tell you a little something
about this movie right here, OK?

33
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:47,200
It had action.
It had heart.

34
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,520
It had laughs.
That I think was my favorite

35
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,280
part about it was that it didn't
take itself too seriously.

36
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,520
That's really general thoughts.
OK, How about you?

37
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:58,880
What'd you?
Think we'll leave it there.

38
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,360
Yeah, I think there's this word
that's been going around with

39
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,760
the the early reviews and stuff.
It's like the most comic booky

40
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,720
comic book movie.
And I didn't know what that

41
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,440
meant going into it, but I
agree.

42
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:16,040
Like, I think I finally
understand there's a lot of not

43
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,160
really caring to hold people's
hands into the weird, wacky

44
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:21,320
world of comic books when it
comes to this movie.

45
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,760
And I really enjoyed the
silliness that Superman can be.

46
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,520
One of my favorite things about
reading Superman comics is yes,

47
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,800
there is serious moments and
there's big world ending things

48
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,680
that happened, but this just
James Gunn gets the character.

49
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,560
So my general thoughts is James
Gunn gets it.

50
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,960
And I left that movie with a
huge smile on my face.

51
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,240
Yeah, absolutely.
And you know, the thing with

52
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,520
James Gunn is that, as we know,
I mean, he did the right MCU and

53
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,520
now he's doing, are they calling
it the DCU?

54
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,200
Is that what they're calling it?
And I think that it had a

55
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,440
different feel from the MCU.
And I think that was smart,

56
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,040
right?
He wasn't just replicating what

57
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,720
he's already done.
He's taking these this other

58
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,680
universe and giving it a
different kind of spin.

59
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:09,520
Now, do I think that it, as it
goes on, needs to be slapsticky

60
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,240
or anything like that?
No, absolutely not.

61
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,320
But I do like these little nods
to things that happened

62
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,400
throughout the film that make
you laugh a little.

63
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,640
You know, one of the things that
I thought was so nicely

64
00:03:19,640 --> 00:03:25,000
downplayed is Superman and Lois
are having a conversation.

65
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,080
She hands him Coco.
They're kind of just talking

66
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,840
about their next steps, what's
going on?

67
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,880
And there's, like, a galactic
fight happening in the

68
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,280
background.
And it wasn't over the top.

69
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:35,880
No one came flying through the
window.

70
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,120
It's just like, this is their
life, and that's how it's

71
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:38,880
happening.
Yeah.

72
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,320
That was a lot of fun.
One thing that I really liked

73
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:47,000
about this movie and what James
Gunn I think did with it is it

74
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,520
didn't give us Krypton
exploding.

75
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,240
We don't need that.
I think us as just general

76
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,920
audiences, right?
We've seen that many times.

77
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,360
Everybody knows Superman.
I think Superman, Spider Man and

78
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,600
Batman, we get it like we know
their origin story.

79
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:05,200
So starting this of three years,
he's already Superman.

80
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,040
We're getting that.
He's at the lowest point.

81
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,880
He lost his battle.
That's where the movie starts,

82
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,000
right?
I liked it because it felt like

83
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,760
you picked up an issue of a
comic book and you're just

84
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,399
thrown into it.
So the comic, comic book Ness of

85
00:04:18,399 --> 00:04:21,920
it and what James Gunn sought
out to do, I think he nailed.

86
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,000
I think he nailed the feeling of
that because a lot of the action

87
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,240
fights and just that moment that
you're talking about where

88
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,200
they're talking and you see that
fight in the background, it just

89
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,600
looks like a splash page.
So he did a good job with that

90
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,760
and it does feel different from
Guardians and you still get the

91
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,160
James gunness of it.
So he carried that over.

92
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,800
But I think it's a a little bit
more polished.

93
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,600
James Gunn, yeah.
Yeah, I like that feeling too.

94
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,640
You know, it, it's it's the Star
Wars thing, right?

95
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,360
Of we're reading the kind of
prologue of what happened.

96
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,520
And so we're already put into
all of the action.

97
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,240
We don't have to figure out how
the character was created, where

98
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,480
it came from.
Like you said, we know.

99
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,240
And so just by what were there
like maybe 456 lines, it was

100
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,480
like, all right, we're good.
We know what we're doing.

101
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:07,960
Yeah, at the beginning it
explains.

102
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,960
Yeah.
And of course, we see Superman

103
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,200
crash into the ice of
Antarctica, and we see our first

104
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,360
moment of David Korzwith as
Superman.

105
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,800
What did you feel about his
betrayal of Superman?

106
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,480
We've gotten a few and some have
been casted but never got to see

107
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:25,720
the light of day.
True.

108
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:30,960
I mean, I think what David did
is that he got what James Gunn

109
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:32,840
was trying to do with the
Superman, right?

110
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,080
The thing that I love most that
he he brought to it was really

111
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:42,000
this sort of wholesome, almost,
Gee Williker's Superman, which I

112
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,360
really appreciated, right?
There's that goodness and that

113
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,320
kindness.
And really, that's at least from

114
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,160
this film, what Superman is all
about.

115
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,680
Well, I think that's what
Superman is about.

116
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,600
And a lot of times when they're
creating these big movies and

117
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,280
supposed to be blockbuster
moments that they tried to make

118
00:06:02,280 --> 00:06:05,360
them a little more serious than
they should be or they lose some

119
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,440
of those core things that make
that character.

120
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:12,280
And I think DC prior to this, it
lost Superman.

121
00:06:12,280 --> 00:06:15,240
It lost to Superman is supposed
to be in what he means.

122
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,520
And I like that they just
brought it back.

123
00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:22,440
You know, he didn't really curse
at all in this movie and he did

124
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,480
I think maybe once, but it was
those G Williker moments where

125
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,960
it's like, yes, that's Superman,
but it's like the kindness of

126
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:34,200
him, him saving everything from
a a squirrel and a dog to a

127
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,160
little girl and everybody
holding a building up so it

128
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,160
doesn't crush them on a bridge.
You know, it's like him looking

129
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,400
after from the smallest to the
biggest things.

130
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,040
That's what makes Superman
Superman, and I think they

131
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:46,600
nailed that.
And especially David.

132
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,200
David just has this, like I
laughed, I was with him when he

133
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,560
was serious.
I those conversations, there's

134
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,920
only one really slow moment and
it's with Lois and Superman when

135
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:01,720
she's interviewing him and I
just just hearing him do those

136
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,240
levels.
He's a fully formed figure and

137
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:05,520
not just starting out.
Yeah.

138
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,640
And an interesting thing that I
thought is that we really got to

139
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,360
see him become super, even
though it wasn't an origin

140
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:16,000
story, right?
Because when we're first meeting

141
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,040
him, he's injured.
He just lost his fight.

142
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,560
So we see him in that respect,
and then we see him having this

143
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,480
kind of intense conversation
with Lois.

144
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,000
But then as it goes on, we're
building his heart, we're

145
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,040
building his character.
And then we see those really

146
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,720
great fight sets, you know,
towards the end of the film.

147
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,200
And I liked that at first
because I actually thought it

148
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:39,360
gave the other characters a
chance to shine, and I thought

149
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,520
that was really important in
building out this world.

150
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,960
Yeah, there was a lot of
characters in this movie too.

151
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,240
I I was really worried when I
saw the Castless and I saw

152
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,720
everything from like a Green
Lantern to Mr. Terrific.

153
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,720
I was like, Oh no, like the
first movie for this, this is

154
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,760
going to be too much.
But I, I think it was handled

155
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,440
well.
I I think they were able to

156
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,480
balance everybody, but I like
that the core always came back

157
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,360
to Lois and Superman.
Absolutely, and I think it also

158
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,960
was a fun thing for to be three.
What was it 3 dates into their

159
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,000
relationship, however long that
is.

160
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,160
And so she knows who he is
already.

161
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,440
There isn't this big.
Oh gosh, you're Superman.

162
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,200
It's like she knows what she's
dealing with.

163
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,360
And I thought that Rachel
Brosnahan did a fantastic job.

164
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:27,480
You know, Lois was so headstrong
and intelligent and, you know,

165
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,919
could fly Mr. Terrific's ship
with without any lessons, which

166
00:08:32,919 --> 00:08:37,000
I thought is just like.
Yeah, Mr. Terrific thinks that

167
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,039
the hardest things are simple.
So when he tells somebody it's

168
00:08:40,039 --> 00:08:41,840
intuitive, it's not very
intuitive.

169
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,280
It's really funny to see that
happen even with somebody as

170
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,880
smart as Lois, right.
Rachel Brosnahan I the second I

171
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:53,720
heard that they were casted as
Lois, absolutely perfect.

172
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:58,040
She she had the look, she had
the wit, she had the the

173
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,400
brazenness of Lois and also just
the braveness of her and not

174
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,600
afraid like even though she's
dating this man, right?

175
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,920
Get back to that interview that
they're having.

176
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,240
She's like, Oh no, I'm a
journalist first and foremost,

177
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,760
and I'm just going to ask you
these hard hitting questions.

178
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,240
Sorry.
Like, yeah, we can still date

179
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,760
after this, but this is my job,
right?

180
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,840
I absolutely amazing.
And I like how much they

181
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,440
involved her in the movie.
And again, it just bookended it.

182
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,200
It started with them seeing this
relationship and then I just

183
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,960
love that final moment with them
kissing and then kind of

184
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,360
floating up.
I was so happy.

185
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,480
Right.
I, that is like the ultimate

186
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,880
Superman lowest thing, right, is
the kissing and kind of

187
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,440
revolving into the air.
I was really happy that we got

188
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:42,480
them moving, too.
Yeah.

189
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,240
And I really did enjoy her
pushing, you know, into Clark

190
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,920
pushing against Superman and
asking him these really

191
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,320
important questions.
And I think The thing is because

192
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,320
he's in this bubble of kindness,
he almost can't understand how

193
00:09:55,320 --> 00:10:00,280
people can see what he's doing
as challenging, right?

194
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,600
And so she, in a way, is trying
to make him realize this is how

195
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,920
you're being perceived.
And even in this world, you

196
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,920
know, we see a lot of stuff
about social media as well and

197
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,640
how much it upsets him.
Did you like the the

198
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,200
introduction of social media and
kind of Internet journalism into

199
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:21,280
this?
It's fine.

200
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,600
I mean, we're not going to get
any suits changing into phone

201
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,440
booths because they don't exist
anymore.

202
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,840
So I think it's just the natural
evolution of the character that

203
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:35,480
you have this billionaire
egomaniac that's running around,

204
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,520
of course he's going to use
monkeys as his bots to, to farm

205
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,240
hatred towards his character
online.

206
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,200
I, I liked it and I didn't.
It's one of those things where

207
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,840
it's like when we get some of
that really real world stuff in,

208
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,320
in our media, it's like God, of
course.

209
00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:53,680
But I think it was fine.
I, I don't think it was played

210
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,840
too much.
I did like the monkeys though.

211
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,640
I didn't, but I did like the
monkeys.

212
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,680
I thought it was funny.
We're all just the monkeys

213
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,800
typing away.
I was kind of curious of what

214
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:09,040
your thoughts were about the the
game the Justice Gang.

215
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:15,120
The Justice Gang, Oh man, I I
liked them there.

216
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:19,720
I mean, I think Mr. Terrific was
probably my favorite out of all

217
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,800
of them.
Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner

218
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,080
was fine.
I liked him a lot more than I

219
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,760
thought I would.
I'm interested to see him in

220
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,040
Lanterns and then just that
whole Green Lantern side get

221
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,960
flushed out.
Isabel Merced as hot girl.

222
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,000
Fantastic, yeah, I thought they
were good.

223
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,200
I think they all kind of got
moments to shine and it wasn't

224
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:44,920
too overstuffed with them.
But I think Mr. Terrific kind of

225
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,160
comes up on top for me at as far
as the gang.

226
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,360
But I did like we're getting the
seeds planted of the Justice

227
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,880
League because that's obviously
what it is, or the Justice

228
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,240
Society, who knows what it's
going to morph into, but it's

229
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:01,680
definitely not Justice Gang.
But I I liked the the nods to

230
00:12:01,680 --> 00:12:03,880
that and then seeing the
building that Maxwell Lord is

231
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,400
obviously paying for.
That's going to be the Hall of

232
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,560
Justice.
So it's very exciting.

233
00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:11,320
It's like, oh, this is like the
building blocks to stuff that is

234
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,600
just going to be great to see
coming to fruition.

235
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,520
I thought it was so funny.
Another kind of sight gag was

236
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:22,360
them in this Hall of Justice.
Like it's not fully furnished

237
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:23,960
yet, like they're still working
on it.

238
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,920
And then Lois leaves, and, like,
her car is just parked right

239
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,680
outside.
It's like the grandeur of the

240
00:12:29,680 --> 00:12:32,040
Hall of Justice.
Exactly what happens.

241
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:34,000
Like, she's like, OK, be beep.
All right, I got to go.

242
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:35,320
I got to go.
What did you think of them?

243
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,280
I really like them.
You know, I have to admit that

244
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,480
the the Guy Gardner character
was interesting, right?

245
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,160
He was kind of giving me almost
like a peacemaker, which who

246
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:50,040
makes a cameo and this, but like
that kind of bravado that I know

247
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,800
best thing.
And it was just kind of the

248
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:57,200
styling of him felt almost the
least new IT was.

249
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,880
It must have been that haircut.
I don't know what it was, but he

250
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:01,680
has.
That haircut, unfortunately,

251
00:13:01,680 --> 00:13:05,160
there's been instances where he
has a fresher cut, but he just

252
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,440
always has the bowl cut.
He's he is that guy that's like

253
00:13:08,560 --> 00:13:12,680
the one Green Lantern that is in
your face kind of, you know,

254
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,560
well, not too great to be around
all the time, but he's a good

255
00:13:15,560 --> 00:13:17,800
guy at the end of the day.
Yeah, yeah, that's true.

256
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,720
And you know, you could see that
they're out in the end where

257
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,040
there's the big battle as his
Green Lantern powers are

258
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,800
flipping the tanks, they're also
flipping them off, which I

259
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,920
thought was really funny with
Hawk Girl.

260
00:13:29,560 --> 00:13:32,480
I'm so happy to see Isabella
Merced, you know, again.

261
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,280
We're getting so much of her
lately.

262
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,040
We heart her, we're just all
about her.

263
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,720
And one of the things that I
liked really was like her

264
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:44,360
fierceness, you know, and how
she's not afraid to really fight

265
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,880
back.
And kill and kill political

266
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,400
leaders.
That should be.

267
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,840
Yeah, So I thought that was, you
want to let that settle?

268
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,560
Yeah, I thought that was really
cool.

269
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,560
I really.
Well, it's so funny, right?

270
00:13:57,560 --> 00:14:00,600
Because we, you know, they're
doing this huge press tour,

271
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,760
obviously, and we've watched a
couple of interviews with them

272
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,760
and they were taking a BuzzFeed
quiz.

273
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,040
And Rachel Brosnahan, he was
like, oh, they were like, oh,

274
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:08,360
who did you want?
You want to be Hawker?

275
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:09,760
She's like, I don't want to be
Hawk Girl.

276
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,520
And I was like, oh, man, what is
Hawk Girl's deal?

277
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,560
But, you know, I guess she just
kind of, she stays back and

278
00:14:16,560 --> 00:14:21,160
maybe doesn't fight for justice
as often as maybe Lois Lane

279
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,440
would like her to.
She does.

280
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,560
They just, I think what I like
that they showed was that even

281
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,840
though this Justice gang has
different characters, they're

282
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,320
not all Superman.
Like, they're all going to not

283
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,880
not kill, right.
And I think the that particular

284
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,280
scene with Hot Girl, he's like,
you're not going to kill me.

285
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,040
She's like, I'm not Superman.
You don't know.

286
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:41,920
Bye.
Bye.

287
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:43,800
Yeah.
And I really like that because I

288
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,960
think it does give us some
different varyings of what each

289
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,680
character means to be here and
what their moral code is.

290
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,080
Superman shouldn't kill.
I think that's just kind of been

291
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,200
a thing, right?
And it's like we hold the the

292
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,600
highest members up to the
highest level, but it's like,

293
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,680
hot girl, yeah, go, go do it
felt right.

294
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,520
It's so silly.
A little slip through the

295
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:07,040
fingers.
And as far as Mr. Terrific is

296
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,040
concerned, I really loved that
he had a big part in this entire

297
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,880
thing.
His technology, really, if it

298
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:14,680
wasn't for his technology, they
wouldn't have been able to do

299
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,680
much of anything at all.
Yeah, I think they used him

300
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,760
really well.
I was so excited that this

301
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,400
character was going to be in
something because they're just

302
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,720
so interesting and they're so
cool.

303
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:30,080
And Eddie Gothiggi, so good.
I am glad that he finally got

304
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,960
justice as a good comic book
character because when he was in

305
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,400
X-Men First Class, he played
Darwin.

306
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,920
Darwin is a character that has
reactive evolution, meaning he

307
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:40,840
cannot die.
He can't die.

308
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:50,620
They killed him in that movie in
the dumbest way possible and he

309
00:15:50,620 --> 00:15:52,180
even agrees that it was like
really bad.

310
00:15:52,180 --> 00:15:55,180
So I'm glad he has redemption in
the comic book world.

311
00:15:55,220 --> 00:15:58,660
I absolutely think he does.
And you know, whatever this kind

312
00:15:58,660 --> 00:16:01,340
of DC Universe becomes, I think
Mr. Terrific is going to be a

313
00:16:01,340 --> 00:16:03,380
solid.
Yeah, what did you think about

314
00:16:03,420 --> 00:16:07,120
Nicholas Holt as Lex Luthor?
Well, I think Nicholas Halt is

315
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,320
less Luther.
I mean, he really did it right.

316
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,720
He he played the part really
well.

317
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,800
That is the one character,
though, that I almost felt like

318
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:21,560
I needed a little back story on.
So yes, because yes, I know he

319
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:26,000
is Superman's adversary, but my
whole thing, I'm going why?

320
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,360
Why not?
But why?

321
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:33,480
He, he, I think he says it
perfectly and towards the end of

322
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,920
the climax and like he's
admitting he's like, I know my

323
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:38,840
ego is so big.
I know these things about

324
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,080
myself.
I'm going to do those things

325
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,160
because I know who I am.
Like this is like, that's

326
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:44,640
something I can't change about
myself.

327
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:49,760
And he, he sees Superman as the
next step of evolution that they

328
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,800
will never be able to get to so
that he is better than the human

329
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,000
race.
And Lex Luthor cannot deal with

330
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,520
it as far as this is what this
interpretation of that

331
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,720
characters is talking about.
And that's just who he is.

332
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:05,480
He, his ego is so conflated and
so huge that he can't stand

333
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,440
somebody being the perfect
being.

334
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,240
How dare, how dare somebody the
perfect being.

335
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,319
And that's Lex's deal.
He just can't.

336
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,000
He can't understand why somebody
is that good when he has all the

337
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,960
resources and he can help
everybody.

338
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,280
But yet Superman is the one
that's praised and lauded

339
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,640
around, right?
All right, I appreciate.

340
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:25,920
Thank you for explaining that to
me.

341
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,320
But I was just for a lot of it,
I was going like what what is

342
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,520
the deal?
Like what is the deal?

343
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,520
And then he.
Just hates him man.

344
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,400
He's obsessed with him.
He's like and, and I love that

345
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,840
he Superman says that to him.
He's like, your obsession with

346
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,840
me is just.
Too much I mean that's that's

347
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,600
LAX like that's that sums him up
man, I love it.

348
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:45,840
I love it because the.
Hair.

349
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:47,240
The hair.
You're jealous.

350
00:17:47,360 --> 00:17:48,840
Well, he's jealous of the hair,
Yeah.

351
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,440
You would know, no, you can
relate.

352
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,400
I was outright attacked on this
podcast.

353
00:17:56,400 --> 00:18:02,280
You all just heard it or saw it.
Facts are facts, Lois Lane.

354
00:18:03,120 --> 00:18:06,360
What did you think of Nicholas?
I know him, so I call him

355
00:18:06,360 --> 00:18:07,760
Nicholas.
Wow first name basis.

356
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,320
I thought he was good.
I I do think he's one of the

357
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:18,760
best Lex movie movie Lexus.
I think that there is not

358
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,000
disparaging the classics.
I think they're great, but I

359
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:24,520
just think he kind of brought
multiple levels to this

360
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:28,640
character, levels that I've
wanted to see like, oh, he could

361
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,600
get away with things.
Oh, he it it would make sense on

362
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,320
how he could become president,
right, But also be the villain

363
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,000
to Superman.
Do these all these like kind of

364
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,640
in the shadows, working things
and creating these conflicts to

365
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,400
get his way.
I really, really liked I think

366
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:44,840
that.
And again, that's writing and

367
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:45,960
that's plot and that's what they
did.

368
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,160
But I think he delivered those
so well.

369
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,080
In particular, I think the one
that scared me in the most is

370
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,920
when they're in that prison and
he does like the the Russian

371
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,080
roulette with the guy and he's
like, oh, I didn't think that

372
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,360
would end so quickly.
I was like Yikes this guy is

373
00:19:01,360 --> 00:19:02,120
messed.
Up.

374
00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:06,720
Yeah, he has.
No, he doesn't really have

375
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,240
regret in anything.
He's just willing to do whatever

376
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:11,880
he has to do to get his way.
Yeah.

377
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,200
He has the resources and money
and he can.

378
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,640
It's going to be interesting to
see what happens next.

379
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,840
Like he's obviously going to get
out of Belle Reeves, we know

380
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,720
that, but how and when is going
to be very interesting to see

381
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,480
that.
Yeah, I think, you know, as a

382
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:29,680
whole, this character of Lex
Luthor, one of the things that I

383
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,800
remember way, way, way back when
we covered The Mandalorian

384
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,240
season 2, we we would have
conversations about like, OK,

385
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:37,760
but how do you become a
stormtrooper?

386
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,120
Like, why do you, why do you
want to be a stormtrooper?

387
00:19:40,360 --> 00:19:44,400
And we see in this that Lex has
this like, very eager, very

388
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,080
loyal following in a number of
different ways.

389
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,360
And, you know, I think the paint
the picture that it's painting

390
00:19:50,360 --> 00:19:53,440
that if someone has enough
resources and some bit of

391
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,480
charisma, people are willing to
follow them, right?

392
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,680
And so there was one point you
and I had kind of leaned over to

393
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,640
each other when we're looking at
the gate in the desert.

394
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,440
And all those people wearing
their Hawaiian shirts and I had

395
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,120
said something like they're like
a cult.

396
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,880
And then later on they are
described as his cult.

397
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,760
And so it really does have that
cult like following.

398
00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:14,880
Where are these people who are
just like, blindly following

399
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:19,720
this person because they've fed
into whatever megalomania they

400
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,680
have about them?
Yeah, he has the resources and

401
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,800
he can let them kind of explore
things that maybe other jobs

402
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,840
won't let them, you know?
So why not?

403
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,920
I'll wear that Hawaiian shirt if
I want to fiddle with pocket

404
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,280
dimensions and.
You know, I mean, I guess it is

405
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,080
exciting.
So with any good villain and his

406
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,800
hench men, there's always lots
of fights, which is duh.

407
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:43,000
And you know, one of the things
that was like kind of crazy was

408
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:47,880
that again with his obsession,
Lex has studied Superman so much

409
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,000
that he's coded every single one
of his moves.

410
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,160
And so those fight scenes are
really interesting, right?

411
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:58,960
He's kind of talking to, I mean,
spoiler alert, super clone

412
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,760
Ultraman.
Ultraman Cloner, man.

413
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,520
Yeah, yeah.
But the the interesting thing,

414
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,800
like kind of like what I was
saying earlier was that I felt

415
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:11,960
like there the action Superman's
action sequences weren't very

416
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,360
action Y in the beginning.
It was a lot of him just like

417
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,000
saving squirrels, which save the
squirrels and, you know,

418
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:20,560
stopping buildings from falling
on people.

419
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:25,560
But like he wasn't doing a lot
of the destroying or or beating

420
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,040
up.
Well, I don't think he should be

421
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,360
destroying I I well, and I the
only reason why I say that is

422
00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:32,640
because I do think there were
some digs at the Man of Steel a

423
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,440
little bit because one of the
big critiques of the Man of

424
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,840
Steel was the final fart fart.
The final fight with General Zod

425
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,560
and Superman.
They'd like destroyed Metropolis

426
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,400
and everybody was like, oh,
geez, like in a Superman film.

427
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,280
It's like how many people died
in that?

428
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,960
A lot.
And granted, it did play into

429
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,320
future movies, but they had kind
of said something.

430
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,600
And one of the things that
Superman kept doing in a lot of

431
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,160
these fights was trying to save
people and lessen the damage,

432
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,560
which I appreciate.
And I think that a hero at the

433
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,840
caliber that Superman is has to
be wary of those types of

434
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,000
things.
And so for him to punch and

435
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,920
fight, he has to have enemies
that he can punch and fight.

436
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,800
So having the Engineer and
having Ultraman, I think was a

437
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:18,440
good choice because he can do
things physically that he might

438
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,720
not be able to do with like
regular robbers, right?

439
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,680
The action sequences were
interesting though, because I

440
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,400
felt like they were too close
up.

441
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:31,200
Like it was a very interesting
way to shoot the action.

442
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,800
I almost wanted them to pull
back a little bit sometimes

443
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:37,480
because almost every action
sequence was like right close

444
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,520
up.
And I think if I could be wrong,

445
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,840
but I'm pretty sure the person
that did the Flash also did this

446
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,280
one and it made sense.
And my head was like 01 of the

447
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,320
things I didn't like about the
Flash was that.

448
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,320
And unfortunately that almost
carried over in this.

449
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,640
That's that.
That's like my biggest thing

450
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,800
with the fights.
I maybe we'll get more

451
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,280
superhuman fights later on, but
I think it was a good

452
00:22:59,280 --> 00:22:59,960
introduction.
Not.

453
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:01,920
Enough hot dogs.
No.

454
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,680
There was a baby.
So there's also that similarity.

455
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,280
And in that fight scene, I
completely agree.

456
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:09,640
I was.
So they're in the pocket

457
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,520
universe and Superman is inside.
I don't know what it was some

458
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,600
sort of, I don't know, Photon
river or something like that.

459
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:18,840
And like I didn't really know
what was going on.

460
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:21,360
Like he was kind of going down
the river or into the black hole

461
00:23:21,360 --> 00:23:23,240
and then out of the black hole.
And then at some point he turned

462
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,400
around in the black hole.
So that being all super close

463
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,360
up, I felt like things got lost
in in translation there.

464
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,320
But I mean, we did get to see
the best boy.

465
00:23:34,120 --> 00:23:36,240
No Crypto.
Crypto yeah, his action

466
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:37,640
sequences were perfect and.
Follows.

467
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,760
Crypto the best devil shit of a
dog.

468
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,040
I'd die for that dog.
I hate him.

469
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,320
You know, the things that this
movie has taught me is that

470
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:53,720
humans can be kind and they can
be loving and that we should

471
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,280
treat animals with respect and
love.

472
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,360
OK.
Because Superman has shown me

473
00:23:58,360 --> 00:24:02,360
all those things and crypto.
Even though he might think T

474
00:24:02,360 --> 00:24:05,240
spheres are just playthings,
he's a good boy.

475
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,760
Yeah, he's great.
I love the addition of crypto in

476
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,240
this movie.
I think the changing of him was

477
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,600
fun, him being kind of
rambunctious and untrained to

478
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:18,280
make sense because he's Cara,
he's super girls dog and she's

479
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,320
very much on a Bender right now.
So I don't think she trained

480
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,960
him, but I thought that it was
great.

481
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,160
And also just the visual, like
they've never included crypto.

482
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:31,040
I was going to say super dog
crypto really in anything

483
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,440
because, you know, fear of it
being too goofy and not really

484
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,080
working.
I think it worked perfectly

485
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,360
fine.
But you know, maybe it just took

486
00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:42,440
a guy like James Gunn to come
around and just be like, like, I

487
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:43,280
can do it.
It's fine.

488
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,080
A dog?
No problem.

489
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,520
I made you guys feel for a
raccoon you.

490
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,840
Just have to go into it with
confidence and also just not be

491
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,480
afraid.
And I think that's exactly what

492
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,160
he did.
I think crypto was a really

493
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,400
great addition to this and I
think it added to that really

494
00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:04,000
that comicy feeling of this
movie, you know, just really the

495
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,480
the fun that can be had.
And, and, and I again, I really,

496
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,320
really enjoy that.
I really loved that in this

497
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:10,760
movie.
I don't know, I can't explain

498
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:12,800
it.
Like I felt like Superman's

499
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,440
Blues were Blues.
His Reds were red, right?

500
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,520
They weren't dark and
mysterious.

501
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,920
He's a good guy, right?
He's got one single curl that

502
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,480
hangs from his head.
I mean, he is.

503
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,800
He is also the goodest guy.
It was actually really nice,

504
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:29,560
too, that we, I love Clark and I
love that they, you know, did

505
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,880
little Easter eggs about his
hypno glasses and stuff.

506
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,080
That's wild that we ever got
that in film.

507
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:39,480
But we didn't really see a lot
of Clark, which I feel like some

508
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,680
of the earlier adaptations, they
always try to balance it.

509
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,200
And, you know, yeah, we need the
Clark stuff.

510
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,880
But I think the Clark stuff
worked so well when we were with

511
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:52,080
Mom, Pop Kent and Lois.
And I think we didn't need more.

512
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,920
I think it showed us this.
He can be Clark, but Clark is

513
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,480
just as much a part of him as
Superman is, and it's hard to

514
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,640
tell the difference sometimes.
And I think that's the good sign

515
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:07,000
of understanding that character.
But we got so much Superman in

516
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:07,800
this.
It just felt.

517
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,040
It felt right.
It felt right.

518
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,880
Yeah, I, you know, one thing I
was thinking about, I was like,

519
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,360
man, they must think he is some
great field reporter because he

520
00:26:16,360 --> 00:26:19,120
is never in that office.
He's just gone.

521
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,240
Nope.
World is ending.

522
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,480
Gone.
I like that Lois also was like,

523
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,720
even though she knew who he was
at the beginning, I was like,

524
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,240
oh, no, we're going to have to.
She's going to have to find out.

525
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:30,760
I was like, rolling my eyes, but
she knew.

526
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:34,560
And she was almost checking him
when she was saying when he

527
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:35,840
came.
And she was like, oh, you always

528
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,200
get these exclusive interviews
with Superman.

529
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,480
Weird.
It's like, yeah dude, chill out.

530
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,600
Yeah, he's like, that's what he
told me.

531
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:47,920
Yeah, very good.
Yeah, I just, I'm, I'm so

532
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,120
excited.
I think the DCU looks bright.

533
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,960
I'm very interested to see where
it goes from here.

534
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:57,480
The only thing that does worry
me, and I would love to be

535
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:01,000
proved wrong, is that like the
next stuff that's coming is

536
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:04,600
interesting because it's not,
you would think like it's

537
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,480
starting with Superman and we're
going to get like, you know,

538
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,640
another bigger here or like
maybe Mr. Terrific, it's a movie

539
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,000
or whatever.
But like we're getting the

540
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:15,000
lanterns, which is fine.
It's going to be fun, but it's

541
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,440
ATV show I'm trying to piece
together, like why are we going

542
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,440
from here to here?
But I don't know.

543
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,160
I'll trust the process.
Yeah, it it is interesting,

544
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:23,680
right?
You would think that this, this

545
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,400
film would be the springboard
for these characters to move on.

546
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,680
But we're going to other
characters.

547
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:32,360
Or even like bigger ones, you
know, like Aquaman, Batman,

548
00:27:32,360 --> 00:27:35,680
Wonder Woman, Flash, like I
guess those are just going to be

549
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,600
down the line, right?
And also, do they exist already?

550
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,400
But when I get when I hear TV
series, I get nervous.

551
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,440
I get a little nervous.
All right, final thoughts.

552
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,880
Final thoughts, just I haven't
said this in a while.

553
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:55,240
What a romp I.
Haven't said it in a while. 3

554
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,680
episodes ago.
Not true, not true.

555
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:00,960
We were talking about The Last
of Us, not a romp, not a romp,

556
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,360
just a lot of fun.
And I felt like this, like this

557
00:28:05,360 --> 00:28:07,720
is going to sound so cheesy, but
like, this is for the whole

558
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,760
family, right?
This isn't just for dad who

559
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,120
collected superhero comics when
he was a kid.

560
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,160
This isn't just for kids.
And it's goofy.

561
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,520
Like this felt like there was
something in it for everyone and

562
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,320
I really like that.
Yeah, I agree.

563
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,760
I think it's a fantastic start
to this new endeavour.

564
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,440
I hope it takes off and I hope
we can get more of this because

565
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,120
I love these characters just as
much as I love the MCU.

566
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,600
I just, I'm excited for the
variety.

567
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:39,040
I'm excited for the difference
difference of them and seeing

568
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:43,080
how it all connects.
But yeah, I, I thought fantastic

569
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,280
cast, visually great man.
What mortgage you want?

570
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,720
Super fun Superman.
Super fun.

571
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,720
Let.
Us know what you thought of

572
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:57,800
Superman and you know, not to
like take it away from DC, but

573
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:02,040
the MCU, the next thing we're
going to be doing is Fantastic

574
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:06,000
Four and very excited for that
one.

575
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:07,160
I'm just letting you know what's
coming up.

576
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,040
It's fantastic.
Four.

577
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:15,200
Oh.
Noah has been singing Fantastic

578
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,080
Four like non-stop for no reason
always.

579
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,120
It is my it's just like the
vocal stem that is just

580
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,000
constantly in my head.
And I just found out that the

581
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,880
Herbie popcorn bucket, when you
put push the button, it sings

582
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,040
the Fantastic Four theme song.
And you know what?

583
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,880
I'm getting that Herbie bucket
so I don't have to sing it, but

584
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,680
Herbie can sing it.
We're all really excited.

585
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:37,440
Goodbye.
