Superman (James Gunn, July 11, 2025) Movie • Page 31

Going to see this tomorrow night. I've been down on superhero movies for years. The last one I really enjoyed was Thor: Ragnarok. But this looks fun and, dare I say, wholesome?

 

got tickets for Sunday afternoon. LFG

 

Seeing this Friday. Wearing nothing but red underwear.

 

you bullshitter!

 

No, he’s talking about “The Bad Guys 2.”

 

anyway, i liked this just a little less than what the early reactions suggest. and that's mostly some momentum issues, as well as me not being totally prepped for what a cheesefest (i mean this positively!) this is at times. action is cool and the cast shines, it's just not quite something where absolutely everything comes together impeccably. grading on a curve but it's still the best superman in decades, and a rewatch could put it over the top for me. i do want to catch this again at some point

 

Superman First Reactions to James Gunn's Film

 

Christy and Alonso from Breakfast All Day both loved it. The latter is usually a tough critic to please, so I’m sold.

 

I knew Beck Bennett was in it because of Doughboys.

 

i knew he was before then because of wikipedia dot org

 

I didn’t know who Beck Bennett was before this past week.

But, when I heard his voice on Doughboys and heard that he was in Superman, I was able to guess he was Steve Lombard.

 

I didn’t know you were a doughboys fan Tim

 

I wasn’t until very recently, like maybe the last couple months? Needed a new pod in rotation at work, knew that it had overlap with other pods I dabble in, and now it’s become a fav.

 

Hell yeah, join the thread. Mitch posts sometimes.

 

I’ve lurked there a couple times, enough that when Mitch anonymously mentioned it, I was like oh shit, lol.

 

Beck also used to do a series of great AT&T ads.

 

He was also on a little known television show Saturday Night Live

 

extremely underrated snl guy

the amy poehler pod also basically said he was the nicest, most well-liked member of the cast and i feel like that came across on the doughboys pod

 

Wouldn’t mind if this movie recreated this exactly. Just magic.

 

Man I am so excited for Friday

 

I just want a Superman movie that will make me feel like that first teaser for "Man of Steel" did.

 

Guess nobody knows who Clark is because of "hypno glasses" lol
