Podcast appearances and mentions of James Gunn

How may reviews for Superman movies does the world need? It needs ours and that's about it. Everyone else can go back to Krypton. Yes, we sat down and finally watched James Gunn's Superman[2025]. We figured we didn't want to place it in the list of movies we'd watch when we get around to a theme episode sometime. If you've existed in Western pop culture, you know the basics. Alien from Krypton, many many powers, raised in Kansas, and fights villains. Some differences here are that Papa Kent is alive and both the Kents are lobotomized boomers who can't operate a phone. Louis Lane is obnoxious, maybe that's closer to … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 260: Superbunny"

2025 was a big year for film. Theaters drew people in for a wide variety of stories. Moviegoers saw thrillers like Paul Thomas Anderson's “One Battle After Another” and Josh Safdie's “Marty Supreme.” They saw the returns of beloved characters with James Gunn's “Superman” and James Cameron's “Avatar: Fire & Ash.” They embraced the strange with “Bugonia,” the romantic with “Materialists” and the tragic with “Frankenstein.”But, as has been increasingly the case in recent years, droves of moviegoers also showed up to films with heavily religious themes.Faith based studios and directors produced a variety of faith-forward movies with family-friendly animated movies like “David“ or “Light of The World” and more mature films such as “Guns and Moses” or “The Last Rodeo.But faith also appeared in many religiously unaffiliated Hollywood films, such as the latest installment of the “Knives Out” franchise which focused on the murder of a controversial catholic priest and Ryan Coogler's “Sinners,” which explored the clashes of spirituality and conventional religion.As the Oscars are fast approaching this weekend, Religion Unplugged's Culture Editor Jillian Cheney and Film Critic Joseph Holmes sat down with public intellectual and theologian Paul Anleitner. Paul is the President and CEO of Goodmakers, and the author of “Based on a True Story: Vibe Shifts, the End of Deconstruction, & the Reboot of Meaning,” which comes out this summer and is available for pre-order now. Jillian, Joseph and Paul talk through the spiritual and religious themes of some of this years' most beloved Oscar Nominees including “Sinners,” “Train Dreams,” “One Battle After Another” and “F1.”#oscars #goodmakers #podcast #paulanleitner #traindreams #sinners #f1 #onebattleafteranother

Frank and Thomas are back after a week-long hiatus to tackle a geek culture landscape that has completely shifted! We're breaking down the industry-shaking news of the Paramount and Warner Brothers merger—discussing why this $110 billion deal might be a disaster for writers and original storytelling. Plus, we dive deep into the first trailers for The Boys Season 5 and the DCU's Lanterns. From Butcher's "Venom-like" powers to the True Detective vibes of Hal Jordan and John Stewart, we leave no stone unturned. We also address the viral God of War "AI" image controversy and drop a "Question of the Week" take that might get us roasted: Is Dune actually overhyped? Timestamps and Topics 00:00 – Welcome Back: Convention prep for WonderCon and our recent interview with Lenore Zann (the voice of Rogue!). 02:37 – The Hot Seat: Which "masterpiece" is actually trash? Why Dune didn't connect and why Scream feels like "Fast and Furious with Ghost Masks." 05:50 – The Boys Final Season: Analyzing Butcher's new powers, Homelander in the White House, and A-Train's incredible 180-degree character arc. 11:51 – Lanterns First Look: The "True Detective" aesthetic, Kyle Chandler's "Old Dog" Hal Jordan, and the mystery of the "Only Human" Green Lanterns. 15:40 – Suit Check: Why the physical, weathered suits in Lanterns are a win for the DCU. 22:53 – God of War Drama: Was the leaked Kratos image AI? Breaking down the "cosplay" look and Ryan Hurst's cryptic warning. 30:12 – Game of Thrones Movie: An Aegon's Conquest film is coming from the writer of Andor and House of Cards. 40:31 – The $110B Mega-Merger: Why the Paramount/WB merger is "Paramount doing Paramount things" and the danger of studios only making "safe bets." 51:00 – Project Helix & IP Waste: Xbox's next move and why Paramount is sitting on a goldmine of GI Joe, Star Trek, and TMNT content. 01:12:57 – Frank's Recommendation: Pokémon Fire Red/Leaf Green on the Switch for that ultimate nostalgia hit. Key Takeaways The Death of the Mid-Tier Movie: The Paramount/WB merger threatens the future of original stories as studios pivot exclusively to established IP. A-Train's Redemption: The Boys has successfully transitioned A-Train from a Season 1 villain to a core member of the resistance. Grounded DCU: By embracing a procedural, "True Detective" vibe for Lanterns, James Gunn is focusing on character dynamics over pure spectacle. Marketing Mishaps: The God of War image controversy highlights a growing fan distrust of early production reveals and "AI-looking" marketing. Memorable Quotes "It's just Fast and Furious with Ghost Mask... it feels so repetitive and I'm just so done with it." — Frank on the Scream franchise. "Earth blowing up is not a 0% chance. I could see Homelander winning and just deciding to nuke the entire planet." — Frank on The Boys finale. "You kind of want that old dog on the Justice League. That's our Hal Jordan." — Frank on Kyle Chandler's casting. Call to Action If you enjoyed our deep dive into the future of Hollywood, subscribe and leave a 5-star review!

On today's podacest, Brian and Mandy discuss Paramount outbidding Netflix to purchase Warner Brothers, with Netflix declining to match and set to receive a $7.5B breakup fee. They cover concerns that Paramount will absorb Warner Bros, fold HBO Max into Paramount+, and take on massive combined debt, prompting a credit-rating drop into “junk” status and higher borrowing costs, with the risk the deal could collapse and trigger further penalties. They also note politics influencing the merger, rumors James Gunn may exit, and AMC's stock falling to about $1 ahead of CinemaCon. They shift to streaming uncertainty like Disney dropping Doctor Who content, speculate where Doctor Who may land, and recommend revisiting older shows and books, including 'Dark Shadows', LitRPG novels like 'Dungeon Crawler Carl', Joe Hill's 'King Sorrow', and Brandon Sanderson's 'The Way of Kings'. 00:00 Opening and Welcome 00:42 Paramount Buys Warner 03:09 Debt And Credit Fallout 07:23 DC Universe In Limbo 08:48 Doctor Who Streaming Chaos 10:42 Back To Classic TV 11:00 Dark Shadows Deep Dive 13:20 Remakes And Modern Carrie 14:04 Institute Shining Connections 14:58 TKs and TPs Explained 15:33 Welcome to Derry Time Twist 16:12 What to Watch and Read Next 16:44 Dungeon Crawler Carl and LitRPG 18:35 King Sorrow and Kindle Deals 19:42 Sanderson Way of Kings Debate 21:08 Series Commitment and Lore Depth 23:32 Wrapping Up Episode 261

Beware the Ides of March. Julius Caesar got stabbed 23 times by people he trusted — and in his honor, Dave, Cody, Paul, and Jackson are drafting their favorite betrayals in pop culture.

The crew also crowns the greatest heel turn in wrestling history and drops the coldest betrayal lines ever delivered.

The show breaks down the first teaser for HBO Max's Lanterns and why it's intentionally more grounded than many fans expected. Frank digs into the detective story setup in the American heartland, the Hal Jordan and John Stewart dynamic, why the teaser keeps the ring powers mostly off screen, and how the muted visuals feel closer to Green Lantern: Earth One than classic cosmic spectacle. The conversation also branches into what this approach could mean for future DCU projects if Lanterns sticks the landing.00:00 First impressions: a grounded teaser and the early backlash00:13 What the case looks like: a heartland murder mystery and the local sheriff factor00:27 How this could pivot to the cosmic side and potential DCU connections00:40 The real hook: Hal vs. John, training, testing, and trust00:54 Visual choices: muted powers, dirtier suit, “old beaten up cop” energy01:08 Music choice: “State Trooper” and the cop story signal01:15 Quick cosmic nods: Lantern Corps distance and the “squirrel” line01:22 Bigger takeaway: could this open the door for other grounded DC charactersThe teaser is clearly positioning Lanterns as a detective story first, cosmic superhero story secondThe restraint on ring powers reads like a tone choice, and a budget choice, not a lack of ambitionHal and John's push and pull feels like the engine of the show, with both characters having valid pointsThe suit and overall palette look intentionally worn and lived in, matching the older, battered Hal framingThe teaser leaves breadcrumbs for the wider Corps, while keeping the focus on this case and this partnershipIf this tone works, it could become a template for other DCU characters who thrive in smaller, moodier stories“They told you so early on. It's going to be a grounded detective story.”“The dynamic is the real hook on this one.”“All the visuals are very muted.”“He's like that old beaten up cop you see from Lethal Weapon.”“One of them is a squirrel, so they can't really hold a conversation.”If you dug this breakdown, subscribe to Geek Freaks Headlines and leave a quick review.
