It\u2019s a bird! It\u2019s a plane! It\u2019s James Gunn\u2019s Superman, here to launch the writer-director-studio-head\u2019s brand new (?) DC Universe. It moves faster than a speeding bullet despite having more plot than the last five Marvel movies put together\u2013and some of those plot points hold up better to the green-K gaze of our hosts than others. Paul, Arlo, and Eric break down everything about this new big screen Man of Steel, including a perfect cast, major deviations from Superman\u2019s origin, Gunn\u2019s unabashedly political script, fuckboi Jimmy Olsen, and so much more. Maybe the film doesn\u2019t leap tall expectations in a single bound, but a movie like this has much more up (up and away) its Super-sleeve than any billionaire skinhead would expect. Plus, the gang dives deep into the sewers for a read-through of IDW\u2019s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles saga.   NEXT: it\u2019s time once again to enter the gates of VAL-halla, as the gang discusses two of Val Kilmer\u2019s most iconic performances, namely as Jim Morrison in Oliver Stone\u2019s 1991 psych-biopic The Doors and Doc Holliday in 1994\u2019s neo-Western Tombstone.
