Show Notes
It's our first non-Star Wars episode where we defend one of the best superhero movies ever made, but one that is commonly ripped to shreds by critics and internet haters... Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. We use audio from several scenes and take a deep dive into Superman's first truly modern film and show that it's not that much unlike Richard Donner's 1978 masterpiece. While Man of Steel looks much different from other Superman iterations, we prove that the essential core tenants of Clark Kent are very much present. So come along as we begin our defense of the DC Extended Universe with the one that kicked it all off. It's a movie that means a great deal to one of the hosts and you can hear the reasons why this movie was one that we were waiting nearly 40 years for. Some come learn how to enjoy Man of Steel more than you ever have before. If you loved it already, you'll love it more. If you didn't like it, come gain a new way to look at the film and get a lot of enjoyment out of this amazing film.
