Look, or, no wait, LISTEN to the SKY! It's a BIRD! It's a PLANE! It's your neighbor with that thingamabob that he won't turn off and is ruining your weekend! No, it's THE WAGES OF CINEMA! We have been in the Fortress of Solitude being tended to by faithful robot companions (wait, that almost sounds a little unseemly, they are innocent robot creations, we promise! They're even voiced by Alan Tudyk), and now are ready to discuss James Gunn's latest comic book spectacular SUPERMAN! How does David Corenswet (and yes his name is pronounced "Corn Sweat") fare as Clark and Kal-El in this early (but not origin) story? Does Gunn "get" Superman better than his former Dawn of the Dead collaborator Zack Snyder? WHAT ABOUT THE DOG? OR THE GREEN BABY? YES THERE IS A GREEN BABY IN CAPS! The whole "Justice Gang" is here - Jack, Andrew, Trash-Panda Korey, Guest-Star Matt (visit him at his blog below for more Kryptonian thought-goodies) - to break it down for you. AND LOOK UP IN THE SKY AT SPOILERS 31 minutes in. https://mattthecatania.wordpress.com https://www.facebook.com/wagesofcinema/

SUPERMAN lebt, aber reißt er auch ab? Das wollen wir heute in einem Extra-SPOILER-Talk ergründen, für den sich Schlogger und Schröck den lieben Maurice ins Studio geholt haben, der ein mindestens ebenso großer Fachmann für den Mann aus Stahl ist wie eben auch Fan seit Kindesbeinen an. Gemeinsam wollen die Drei ihre Eindrücke vom Film noch mal Revue passieren lassen, auf die Themen des Films eingehen, ihre Erwartungen abklopfen, ein wenig die James Gunn-Formel entschlüsseln und dann auch noch mal die ein oder andere Comic-Empfehlung abgeben. Dabei wird dann natürlich auch das kleine DC-Universum von Christopher Nolan zur Sprache kommen, während selbstverständlich ebenfalls über andere Film-Adaptionen wie SUPERMAN - DER FILM von Richard Donner oder eben MAN OF STEEL von Zack Snyder geredet wird. Denn Letzterer war unter anderem der letzte Film, den Schröck zuletzt gesehen hat. Bei Maurice war es 28 YEARS LATER, weshalb er noch ein wenig über IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA schwärmt, nachdem Schlogger von ihrem Erstkontakt mit dem tollwütigen Bernhardiner CUJO berichtet hat. Und damit wären wir auch schon wieder gut gefüllt für diese Woche. Wir hoffen, Ihr habt SUPERMAN schon gesehen und demnach auch viel Spaß mit unserer Gesprächsrunde. Und natürlich wünschen wir auch allen anderen, die nicht so viel Wert drauf legen und trotzdem schauen, viel Spaß. Habt ein schönes Wochenende, bleibt gesund und gut drauf und bis bald.

The time is finally here. My most anticipated movie of the year - James Gunn's SUPERMAN - is finally arriving in theaters this weekend. I had the incredible opportunity to see this movie at an early Fan First Screening yesterday, which is how I'm getting this review out about the time it is debuting worldwide, in a select few countries today. This is the official, theatrical launch of James Gunn and Peter Safran's DCU, that I really hope will actually have the chance to thrive. I love DC Comics, and I've loved Superman since I was a small child. I was introduced to the character through the Justice League cartoons and the original 1978 Richard Donner film. I dressed up as Superman and tried to do the curl and all of that. It has been a LONG wait to finally have another Superman movie on the big screen, and - boy, oh boy - has it been a tumultuous one.I was a huge fan of Henry Cavill's Superman and am one of the people who love Man of Steel. Zack Snyder's Justice League is one of my favorite comic book movies of all-time too, but the toxicity around the excitement and hate for this new movie has been rough. It's the 'sports-ation' of movie fandoms that has really frustrated me over the last few years, and it's showcased no more clearly than how people talked about this movie up until release (and probably after release too). That being said, because the character means so much to me and because James Gunn's film really resonate with me on an emotional level, I've always known he was going to deliver a worthy film that starts the Big Blue again. You'd know that about me if you've listened to any of my reviews of James Gunn's films and shows, which are all glowing, and listened to my breakdowns of the trailers. The trailers certified for me that it seemed like Gunn was finally taking the character back to its much needed hopeful and optimistic, yet slightly retro, roots. So, does James Gunn's Superman deliver on its promises; is it the truest version of Superman we've had in a long time? Find out in this SPOILER-FREE review!Superman:Written and Directed by: James GunnSuperman created by: Jerry Siegel & Joe ShusterProduced by: James Gunn, Peter SafranExecutive Producers: Nikolas Korda, Chantel Nong Vo, Lars P.

Welcome to Your Movie Rocks, an Alternate Ending podcast hosted by Mandy Albert. For every episode, Mandy will watch a movie assigned by her guest host, followed by a lively discussion. There's only one rule: no matter what the movie does to her, Mandy is only allowed to love it. In July's episode, Mandy gets her second Zack Snyder movie in six months, thanks to Brian Fowler, who assigns her all three and a half hours of Watchman: Ultimate Cut, the even longer and less cohesive version of a movie she quite disliked in its original theatrical version. Will the addition of hyper-violent pirate animation be enough to sway her over to Snyder's massive vision? And what dark betrayal led Brian to pick this movie for Mandy in the first place? Tune in to hear the answers to these and other questions, learn Mandy's theory about the color yellow, and revisit those long-ago days when superhero movies were still kind of a weird novelty.

El mundo entero puede venirse abajo en una sola noche. Un grupo de desconocidos queda atrapado dentro de un centro comercial mientras afuera se desata el infierno; sin embargo, el verdadero horror quizás no esté exclusivamente en el exterior. Con su debut cinematográfico, Dawn of the Dead (2004), Zack Snyder entrega una obra brutal, acelerada y, quizá sin proponérselo, profundamente cercana al espíritu humano. No por quienes se transforman en zombies, sino por la forma en que reaccionan los que aún no han sido infectados. Así, a través de la crueldad o de la compasión, revela lo más profundo del individuo: hay quienes jamás fueron humanos, aunque nunca los haya mordido un zombie.Pero ¿por qué zombies? ¿Y por qué justamente en un centro comercial? Para entenderlo, hay que detenerse un momento y mirar alrededor: es en el contexto donde las respuestas comienzan a aparecer.

We discuss the changes that brought this zombie classic into the new millenium, debate slow vs. fast zombies, and ponder the Horror Movie Snyderverse we could have had.

In this week's episode, we dive headfirst into Zack Snyder's hyper-stylized war epic, 300 — a film that turned history into a comic book battlefield. Is it a bold artistic statement or just a barrage of abs and blood? We break down its cultural footprint, iconic visuals, and quotability (yes, this is Sparta gets discussed), while also asking the real question: does 300 still hit like it did in 2007?We evaluate the performances (Gerard Butler yelling his heart out), Snyder's direction, and the influence of 300 on action cinema. Plus, our "Guess That Film from Letterboxd Reviews" segment returns with some epic commentary from the crowd.Stick around as we score the film on cultural impact, craft, critic and audience reception, and give it our final verdict: Overrated or Underrated?Follow us on all our socials! linktr.ee/overunderpodSupport the podcast on Patreon! patreon.com/overunderpodJoin our Discord server! discord.gg/Zqev7jEnXzBusiness Inquiries: overunderpodcastshow@gmail.comGrow your YouTube channel w/ VidIQ!vidiq.com/r?code=9cFKKLPodcast Hosts: Dylan DeAngelis and Jason GongIntro/Outro Music: Leva - The Vortex (Instrumental Version)Socials ---> https://linktr.ee/overunderpod

It's time to review one of our most requested movies since we started the show... Watchmen! The film that helped put Zack Snyder on the map and got him the DC films to come, Watchmen is a non-traditional super hero movie in many respects but it is oh so deep and nuanced with nerdy discussions to be had. We also review the Ultimate Edition which adds so much more to the movie. Helping us with this meaty film is our great friend of the show Eric Blattberg! Before we jump into the film we also break down our top 5 Director Cuts of all time. It's a long movie so it's a long show. So grab your masks, put on some Bob Dylan, and don't forget... everything's a joke... it's time for Watchmen on The Movie Defenders podcast!

SUPERMAN TRAILER BREAKDOWN AND REACTIONS will be the main topic tonight. A lot of discourse is out there but also a lot of hype for the new Superman trailer.
It's just two of your favorite Fiorentina podcast idiots in this one--McMike's off listening to birdsong to write an Oliver Messiaen-type symphony--but we've got enough gloom for the three of us. Producer Mike and Tito run through the grimmest week of results in recent Viola memory. Yep, we're talking about losses at opposite ends of the spectrum (Real Betis and Venezia) that result in similar outcomes: goodbye Europe. Don't worry, though. We don't confine ourselves to just that one kind of sadness. We look ahead to the potential repercussions of missing out on continental competition, looking at who might be edging towards the exit and which loanees saw their chances of sticking in Florence drastically reduced. We tried to avoid going full Zack Snyder and interspersed the grim dark greys and muted blues with the odd Wes Anderson pastel: Producer Mike pouring his first-ever beer, for example, or Tito trying to combine American football, the Tyrannosaurus Rex, and a shrimp. Thank you to Sport Social Podcast Network for hosting us and to Windchime Weather for the music. As always, we hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed making this. Forza Viola!
