Show Notes
LOOK UP!
Superman soars into theaters this Friday, and with it, a new era for DC comics begins on the silver screen. That’s right, Superman is the first feature film in the newly minted DC Universe (DCU) and the expectations could not be higher for Director and Co-CEO of DC Studios, James Gunn. Is Gunn able to apply his signature comic book movie style to a larger-than-life character like Superman? Does relative newcomer David Corenswet have what it takes to don the cape and trunks? Were all those highly publicized casting decisions the right fits? We discuss all of that and so much more in our Spoiler-Free Superman Review.
If you’ve seen the movie (or even if you haven’t) be sure to drop us a comment and let us know what you think about it!

More from Popcorn for Breakfast
Since the rise of superhero films in the 2000s and 2010s, we’ve gotten a lot of different types of superhero movies. We’ve even gotten supervillain movies. But we’ve never had a supervillain horror movie like this one.
Some are calling it a masterpiece while others call it a disaster. Either way, what happened with Digger is a debacle worthy of unpacking.
You Can See Everything, the new documentary from Nathan Fielder, Lance Oppenheim, and A24, is unlike anything we’ve ever SEEN (get it?). So, it calls for an episode that is a little different than we’ve ever done.
It’s not an overstatement to say The Social Network is one of the great movies of the 21st century. Not only was it an extremely well-made film thanks to the combined genius of David Fincher and Aaron Sorkin but it also has become more relevant with time as all the great films do.
If you grew up in the 90s like us, chances are you walked by “Tremors” in Blockbuster or Family Video on more than one occasion. The cult classic creature feature starring Kevin Bacon was a 90s cable mainstay and still somehow, none of us had ever seen it.
