Jason Momoa was the FIRST one to audition for GAME OF THRONES and the LAST one cast a year later. His cousin's impact on his life helped him make a strong choice that ultimately landed him the role. But it took him a few years and a couple of classes to trust his instinctive strong choices and learn how to "audition." BAYWATCH discovered him in his native home of Hawaii among a 1,300-person cattle call. Jason responded to a radio call announcing the audition that would pay him more than the daily rate of folding T-shirts at the family-owned surf shop. Jason's unique look has always made him a different choice, but also made opportunities few and far between. So Jason, with many of his close friends, formed the production company Pride of Gypsies, which has made Jason into an all-around filmmaker — writing, producing, directing and acting. Forever remembered for his unforgettable role as Drogo in Game of Thrones, Jason has since become a global star as Aquaman in the DC universe, Duncan Idaho in Dune, and the lead in Apple TV+'s See. He's also stepped further behind the camera, creating and starring in his passion project Chief of War, and appeared in A Minecraft Movie, The Fall Guy, and his travel/design series On the Roam. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Jason Momoa right here.

Jamie O'Brien, Pipeline, Pipe Masters, core surfing, Catch Surf, soft-top surfboards, surf culture, YouTube surfing, Red Bull, North Shore Hawaii, Backdoor, Ben Gravy, Jack Johnson, Rob Machado, Kelly Slater and the future of the surf industry — this episode of Pinch My Salt goes straight into one of the biggest debates in modern surfing: what does it actually mean to be a “core surfer” anymore?Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan react to Jamie O'Brien's comments about sponsored surfers, being core, chasing swells, making money in surfing and the evolution of his career from Pipeline legend and self-produced surf movies to YouTube, vlogging and the Catch Surf soft-top era. They debate whether surf YouTube and soft tops helped grow surfing or changed surf culture for the worse, how JOB influenced the next generation of surf creators, why traditional surfboard design still matters, and whether the surf industry has traded progression, style and craftsmanship for clicks, viral videos and easy money.The boys also get into Jack Johnson trying to connect them with Jason Momoa, Rob Machado's legendary hair, Kelly Slater, surf-industry sycophants, Instagram surfer culture, old-school surf fights at Lowers and Trestles, surfboard design, environmental concerns around foam and soft-top surfboards, and why surfing still needs to protect the magic that made everyone fall in love with it in the first place.Jamie O'Brien has been one of the most influential surfers of his generation — from Pipeline and Backdoor to his early self-produced surf films, DVDs, viral surfing videos and massive YouTube career. But has the rise of surf influencers, vlogging, soft tops and viral content changed what being a professional surfer means?Sterling also tells the story of surfing Backdoor with Jamie years ago and trying to convince him that the future was the internet — while Jamie was still making money selling surf DVDs.Plus: hardboards vs soft tops, Catch Surf, Ben Gravy, Blair Conklin, surfboard progression, old-school surf culture, North Shore stories, surfing fights, growing up in surf shops, the future of surfing, keeping surfing core and the eternal question:Can you make money in surfing without selling out?Welcome to Pinch My Salt.

The reborn DC Universe unfurled its bright new cape with Superman (2025), a cinematic sunrise announcing the start of a fresh era. Tucked inside that film was a fleeting shimmer of Supergirl herself—just enough to hint that she and her loyal cosmic pup Krypto were about to leap from cameo to center stage. And leap they did: Supergirl (2026) arrived as a starry origin tale for one of DC's most enduring icons, a heroine who has already lived many lives across movies and a six‑season TV triumph from 2016 to 2021. This newest adventure draws its inspiration—loosely, boldly—from Tom King's acclaimed and occasionally eyebrow‑raising eight‑issue saga Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.From IMDB comes the tale's beating heart: “Kara Zor‑El, aka Supergirl, joins forces with an unlikely companion on an interstellar journey of vengeance and justice when an unexpected adversary strikes too close to home.” It's a quest that stretches across the stars, stitched together with equal parts fury, hope, and cosmic dust.Guided by producers James Gunn and Peter Safran, shaped by newcomer Ana Nogueira's script, and steered by director Craig Gillespie, Supergirl brings Milly Alcock soaring into the titular role. She's joined by Jason Momoa swaggering through space as Lobo, Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley, and a blink‑and‑smile cameo from David Corenswet. Critics were divided, influencers debated, audiences approved—and now your cohosts strap on their jetpacks to explore the latest chapter of the DCU and share what they discovered among the stars.

Fire up the drum-playing cephalopods, because the Binge Buddies are closing out the DCEU with a massive, aquatic question mark. > Welcome back to "Hall of Just Us," where your hosts Bryan, Matt, Joel, and Ryan have reached the official end of the line: 2023's Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. The guys are trying to figure out exactly what the hell this movie actually is. Is it a cohesive sequel? A disjointed, studio-mandated mess? A surprisingly fun buddy-cop ride between Jason Momoa's Arthur Curry and Patrick Wilson's Orm? Or is it all just a spectacularly weird, two-hour excuse to give Topo the Octopus a starring role? Join the crew as they break down James Wan's final plunge into Atlantis. From the horror-tinged water zombies and Black Manta's ancient revenge plot, to the bizarre reality that this is how a decade-long cinematic universe dies—not with an epic superhero crossover, but with a genetically engineered, multi-instrumentalist sidekick. Grab a pint of Guinness and hit play—we're officially turning out the lighthouse lights on the DCEU!
STREET FIGHTER & RAMAYANA TRAILER REACTIONS!! Jason Momoa's Blanka brings electric chaos before Ranbir Kapoor and Yash face off in an epic IMAX take on the Ramayana! Aaron Alexander & Andrew Gordon react to new footage from Street Fighter and the official Ramayana: Part 1 trailer. Street Fighter, directed by Kitao Sakurai, stars Andrew Koji as Ryu, Noah Centineo as Ken, Jason Momoa as Blanka, David Dastmalchian as M. Bison, Callina Liang as Chun-Li, and Roman Reigns as Akuma. The footage highlights Blanka's electric powers, claws, and a brutal arena fight with Ryu. Ramayana: Part 1, directed by Nitesh Tiwari, stars Ranbir Kapoor as Rama, Yash as Ravana, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Ravie Dubey as Lakshman, and Sunny Deol as Hanuman. With music by Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman and VFX by DNEG, the trailer showcases massive battles, mythic creatures, emotional stakes, and stunning IMAX visuals. After Street Fighter, Aaron and Andrew break down the creative direction of Blanka's design and how the film balances darker, more intense elements with a lighter, more playful tone. They discuss Momoa's portrayal, the energy of the action, the visual effects, and how characters like M. Bison and Ryu are being adapted for the big screen, along with speculation about iconic moves and overall tone. Ramayana, on the other hand, stands out for its scale and cinematic ambition. Both highlight its emotional storytelling, sweeping visuals, and mythic scope, with comparisons to other large-scale fantasy epics and interest in the central conflict between Rama and Ravana. The trailer's music, action, and IMAX presentation are also key talking points, along with how effectively it introduces the story to a wider audience.

Taylor & Nick bum a ride with Nate Johnson (Cedric the Entertainer) and his family (Vanessa L. Williams, Bow Wow, and Solange Knowles) as they head to Carruthersville, Missouri for their family reunion. Along the trip, the Johnson family encounters everything from a nutty hitchhiker (Shannon Elizabeth) and her pet alligator to the screen debut of Jason Momoa. Though it's a blatant rip-off of National Lampoon's Vacation, your hosts recommend you sit back and enjoy Johnson Family Vacation (2004).

New Orleans is just cool, man. The only thing cooler might be Sylvester Stallone. Put that man in the bayou or the French Quarter and you've got our attention! 2012's Bullet to the Head feels like it should have been a hit, but somehow it fell through the cracks!

James Gunn's new DC Universe continues with Supergirl (2026), but has the film been unfairly judged or does it genuinely fall short?Jon Evans and Alex Hansford sit down for a full spoiler review, discussing Milly Alcock's performance as Kara Zor-El, how closely the film follows Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, Jason Momoa's debut as Lobo, the strengths and weaknesses of the screenplay, studio reshoots, the visual design, and whether superhero films are beginning to lose their cultural dominance.Along the way they compare the film with the original Helen Slater classic, explore why the comic arguably tells the story better, debate whether the critics were too harsh, and ask what the disappointing box office performance could mean for the future of DC Studios.Spoiler warning: this episode discusses the entire film, including the ending.Timestamps00:00 Introduction and first impressions03:05 Has Supergirl been unfairly judged?11:20 Milly Alcock, Ruthie and the performances21:20 Jason Momoa's Lobo and the supporting cast30:40 Production design, cinematography and music39:50 Favourite moments, ending and final verdicts50:45 Are superhero films losing their appeal?Supergirl 2026 review, Supergirl spoiler review, James Gunn DC Universe, Milly Alcock Supergirl, Supergirl Woman of Tomorrow, Lobo Jason Momoa, DC Studios, Superman 2025, comic book movies, superhero podcast Hosted on Acast.

The League welcomes Jaush back to tackle one of the biggest superhero movies of the year: Supergirl (2026).Clay, Dursin, and Jaush break down Milly Alcock's performance as Kara Zor-El, Craig Gillespie's direction, Ana Nogueira's screenplay, the relationship between Kara and Ruthye, the film's emotional core, spectacular cosmic visuals, and its place in James Gunn's new DC Universe.The biggest conversation, however, is Jason Momoa's debut as Lobo. After years of fan speculation, Momoa finally gets to play the Czarnian bounty hunter, bringing the Main Man's attitude, humor, and brutal style to the big screen. The guys discuss whether Lobo steals every scene he's in, how faithful the character is to the comics, and where he could appear next in the DC Universe.Plus, the League talks Superman connections, favorite moments, comic book influences, surprises, Easter eggs, and whether Supergirl lives up to the hype.Find out what the "S" really stands for.
This week The Guys revisited a tradition of going to a movie none of their wives wanted to see. Permission to watch Supergirl was granted and acted upon. No Oscar nominations are expected (though the CGI dog is pretty good), but The Guys give it 3 thumbs up. Milly Alcock and Jason Momoa seem to fit their roles, and David Corenswet seems very Superman-ish in his appearances. Despite Jay's confusion (why is this movie taking place mostly in space with what seemed like cameo appearances from Star Wars aliens?), the story moves along and makes sense. Lots of planets, multi-colored suns, but no multi-verses. In other news, sadly, the leader from an iconic band passes from the planet. On the other side of the planet, for those who love electric cars AND Batman, Mihandra is ready to take your rupees. “Heroes” is back on Netflix, so maybe Jay will get past the first few episodes this time around. Save The Guys! Save the World!
*******SPOILER REVIEW*******It's a bird...It's a plane...It's.........Supergirl?!?!Today, the guys get together to talk about the second movie under the new DCU regime of James Gunn and Peter Safran...Supergirl! This movie stars Milly Alcock as the titular Supergirl. In a phase of her life, where she is just trying to have fun and drink away her problems. She is thrown into a fight she never intended to join. When her dog, Krypto, is injured and a young girl Ruthye (played by Eve Ridley) witnesses the death of her entire family, at the hands of the infinitely forgettable villain Krem (played by Matthias Schoenaerts). Also...for some reason Lobo (played by Jason Momoa) is there too.Did the guys like it more than Superman (2025)? Was Lobo just in his own movie all together?

Dune Part Three just dropped its IMAX trailer, Naruto is finally getting a big-budget live-action movie, and Freddy Krueger is coming back in a full Nightmare on Elm Street reboot. Frank and Squeaks break down a stacked week of trailers, teasers, and franchise news to figure out which of these actually have a shot. Along the way they react to the Shrek 5 trailer and its new animation style, size up the Crystal Lake teaser and its Pamela Voorhees focus, get hyped for the canon 1994 Ghostbusters animated series with Dan Aykroyd and Jack Quaid attached, and debate whether DC's Mr. Terrific series proves James Gunn is playing the long game after Supergirl. Plus a spoiler-friendly Dungeon Crawler Carl book club check-in and this week's recommendations, from Death Stranding 2 to the Predator Badlands comic mini-series. And the question of the week: if the X-Men ran the government, who gets the White House? Timestamps and Topics 0:00 Intro and Question of the Week: Which X-Men Should Run the Government? 5:18 Dune Part Three IMAX Trailer Reaction 12:36 Shrek 5 Trailer and the New Animation Style 16:16 Crystal Lake Teaser: The Friday the 13th Prequel Series 19:35 Naruto Live-Action Movie News and Casting 24:46 Nightmare on Elm Street Reboot at Paramount 28:49 Ghostbusters Animated Series Coming to Netflix 32:06 DC News: Mr. Terrific Series, Supergirl Thoughts, and Lobo's Future 41:49 Dungeon Crawler Carl Book Club Corner 50:04 Network Updates and Recommendations of the Week Key Takeaways The Dune Part Three trailer suggests the movie is expanding small moments from the book, like the worm heist, into major action set pieces, and it may be the biggest departure from the source material yet. Naruto's live-action movie has real momentum: director Destin Daniel Cretton is attached, creator Masashi Kishimoto has given his blessing, and a global casting search is underway for Team 7. The Nightmare on Elm Street reboot lands at Paramount with the Wes Craven estate involved and the team behind Barbarian and Weapons attached, and the premise holds up better in a modern setting than most 80s slashers. The new Ghostbusters animated series is set in 1994 New York, is canon, and has Dan Aykroyd producing, with Jack Quaid in the voice cast. DC greenlighting a Mr. Terrific series after Supergirl's soft box office signals James Gunn is prioritizing long-term world building over chasing safe bets. The Crystal Lake teaser centers Pamela Voorhees, played by Linda Cardellini, raising the question of whether a Friday the 13th story can work with Jason mostly offscreen. Quotes "You go to sleep, Freddy's in your mind. Nightmare on Elm Street is one of those stories that actually could work today just fine." "If I were a Naruto fan, these are all the stars lining up that I'd want to line up." "I think this is going to be the Clone Wars of Ghostbusters." "If you were to cut every part of Lobo out of this movie, you would not feel his absence in the slightest. That being said, Jason Momoa as Lobo nailed it." "Everything that's ever mentioned or anything that's put into his bag, you can assume will be used." Call to Action Enjoyed the episode?

Peter and Eden catch up after the UK trip — The Rest Is History Festival at Hampton Court Palace, Westminster Abbey, Hadestown, and why walking London at night feels safer than any US city. Then the pop culture blitz: Peter power-watched Fast 8–10 and Tron: Ares on the plane (he has Opinions). Eden brings new music (Rebecca Black, Blackpink with Chris Martin), K-pop supergroup collabs, two weird indie games, and a defense of the new Masters of the Universe movie.Show NotesRest is History Festival: Peter attended the inaugural festival at Hampton Court Palace with historians Mary Beard, Tracy Borman, and medieval combat demonstrations.London at night feels safer: Walking a mile from the theater district at 10:30 PM felt natural — dramatically different from any major US city Peter's experienced.America's shallow history: Westminster Abbey (Darwin, Handel, coronation chair used for a millennium) drove home how new the US is. Eden clarifies: referring to the dominant white culture, not the land itself.Renaissance babies are terrifying: Painters used adult proportions shrunk down instead of babies' actual big-head, short-limb proportions.Hadestown and La Bohème: Peter saw Hadestown ("good gut punch of a tragedy") and La Bohème at the Royal Opera House — the Mimi performer had the most stunning voice he's ever heard in person.Warning — Rituals of Shame: First album in 20 years from the British doom band. Classic mournful doom metal.Junius — Sotera: Boston post-metal band's first album in 9 years. "Depeche Mode if they wanted to be a post-metal band." LinkPrince of Failure: Daniel Tompkins (TesseracT) and Paul Ortiz (Chimp Spanner) collab via Kscope.

Como um filme com uma das melhores atuações do ano em um papel de super herói pode desabar 77% de bilheteria no segundo final de semana? Essa é a pergunta que abre este episódio, e a resposta envolve estúdio nervoso, cortes de 11 minutos e uma Kara Zor El que talvez fosse boa demais para o filme em que ela apareceu.Milly Alcock entrega uma Supergirl marcada por trauma, memórias reais de Krypton e uma frase que já virou debate entre fãs: enquanto o Superman vê o bem em todos, ela vê a verdade. Mas será que o filme sustenta essa complexidade até o fim, ou trai o material original de Tom King e da brasileira Bilquis Evely pelo caminho?Rafael Arinelli, Julia Barth, Marina Anderi e Henrique Rizatto discutem a colorimetria desbotada que ignora a beleza da HQ, questionam a real função de Jason Momoa como Lobo, e mergulham na mudança polêmica do desfecho, quando Kara toma uma decisão que a HQ jamais permitiria. Interferência de estúdio, medo de desacelerar e uma pergunta incômoda sobre até onde a saturação do gênero explica esse fracasso.Um filme que tinha tudo para ser poético.

She's not her cousin. Kara Zor-El (Milly Alcock) arrived on screen in Supergirl with a chip on her shoulder and a body count on her conscience — a cosmic revenge story light-years removed from the sunnier mythology of Superman. Whether the DCU's second theatrical outing delivered on that premise is another question entirely.Mike White and Chris Stachiw of The Kulturecast dig into Craig Gillespie's Supergirl, written by Ana Nogueira and adapted from Tom King and Bilquis Evely's acclaimed comic miniseries Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. The film stars Alcock alongside Eve Ridley as Ruthye Marye Knoll, Matthias Schoenaerts as the villain Krem of the Yellow Hills, Jason Momoa as Lobo, and David Corenswet reprising his role as Superman. Mike and Chris take stock of what works, what doesn't, and what Alcock's performance promises for the character's future in the DCU — box office results notwithstanding.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth

We had a good time. We just wanted a little more.This week on Zero Dark Nerdy we're sitting down with our full review of Supergirl — the DCU's big summer blockbuster — and honestly it's a mixed bag with perhaps too many cooks in the kitchen? Milly Alcock is fantastic, Jason Momoa as Lobo is undeniable and the cast all around brings real energy to their roles, There's plenty of action-packed fun to keep you in your seat and you can feel the potential of where this DCU era could go...BUT we'd be doing you dirty if we didn't keep it real — the script and plot don't quite match the talent on screen, the pacing gets a little wobbly, and we are still grieving the Blondie-esque trailer soundtrack that never made it into the final film. It also feels like a movie with a few too many cooks in the kitchen, and that shows. Not a bad time at the theater by any means — just one we probably won't be revisiting at home.We dig into all of it, the highs, the frustrations, and what we're hoping the DCU takes away from this one going forward.New episodes every week.

The Comic Book Bears Podcast returns to the movies in this new episode, and this time it is for the Maiden of Steel! Supergirl was recently released on June 26th with Milly Alcock starring in the title role of Superman's cousin, Kara Zor-El. Directed by Craig Gillespie and written by Ana Nogueira, it is the second film set in the DC Universe (DCU) following last year's Superman. The film also stars Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley, David Corenswet returning as Superman, and Jason Momoa as fan favorite character Lobo! In the film, Kara embarks on a journey across the galaxy to hunt down an adversary who has harmed her pet dog Krypto in a story based in part on the 2021 Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow comic miniseries by writer Tom King and artist Bilquis Evely. Steve, Caleb and Billy Z relay what they thought of the film (spoilers included) and also discuss some of the "fandom" reaction to it. And instead of our regular round table, as we just said farewell to Pride month the CBB boys offer up LGBTQIA+ themed comics graphic novels they feel should be on alphabet mafia bookshelves. And what are those works? Just hit play to find out!
Welcome to Play, Pause, Rewind! The world's greatest media podcast, maybe. This week, we take a look at the latest film in James Gunn's DC Universe, Supergirl.

SPOILER WARNING The new Supergirl movie had everything we wanted on paper: Milly Alcock as a more broken, bitter Kara Zor-El, a fresh contrast to Superman's optimism, Krypto the Superdog, Jason Momoa as Lobo, and a chance to keep the new DC Universe momentum going after James Gunn's Superman. Unfortunately… we did not love this one. In this spoiler-heavy Supergirl movie review, we break down why the movie felt more like DC's Babysitters Club than a bold new superhero adventure, why Kara's “punk rock” attitude never quite lands, why the Ruthie revenge plot feels weirdly underwritten, and why the movie's feminist ideas feel more like random ingredients thrown into a blender than an actual story. We also get into the Krypto problem, the Jason Momoa/Lobo cameo, the discourse around whether Supergirl is bombing because of misogyny, the bizarre ending, the comparisons to Guardians of the Galaxy, Mad Max: Fury Road, and Superman, and whether this movie hurts our excitement for the future of the DCU.

It's neither a bird, nor a plane, nor Superman. It's Supergirl, the newest film from James Gunn's DC that has some folks talking, but probably not as many as Warner Bros. would like.

Jurandir Filho, Thiago Siqueira, Fernanda Schmölz e Jon conversam sobre "Supergirl", o segundo filme do DCU. Diferente de "Superman", esse filme não tem a direção de James Gunn. Isso fez diferença? Milly Alcock mandou bem como a heroína? Jason Momoa nasceu pra fazer o Lobo? Quanto de Superman tem no filme? Na história, um adversário inesperado e implacável ataca o cachorro Krypto. Isso força a Supergirl unir forças com uma aliada improvável em uma jornada interestelar de vingança e justiça.==|| ASSINE O SALA VIP DO RAPADURACAST- Escute um podcast EXCLUSIVO do RapaduraCast toda semana! http://patreon.com/rapaduracast

Frank and Tim grab a couple of citrus wheat ales and head to the theater for Supergirl, the DCU's next step after Superman. The verdict: liked it, didn't love it — an earnest, surprisingly un-cynical B-movie with a great cast, gorgeous practical aliens, and a message clearly aimed at kids it's frankly too dark to show them. Along the way: the Casablanca clue, Lobo done right, and a genuinely unhinged detour into Augustine vs. Aquinas. Cheers!

Supergirl finally hits theaters and Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 lands on Netflix, so Frank and Jonathan break down whether either adaptation lives up to the source material. One earns real praise for protecting what makes its characters great, while the other leaves one of the best endings in modern comics on the cutting room floor. The guys also react to PlayStation deleting 551 movies from UK libraries with no refunds and what that means for digital ownership, plus a stack of DC animation news including an Absolute Batman series, a Joker anime, and a Krypto show from the SpongeBob team. Jonathan checks in on his first read of Dungeon Crawler Carl, and Frank previews weekly X-Men '97 reviews coming to the Geek Freaks YouTube channel. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Intro and Jonathan's Dungeon Crawler Carl Check-In 03:05 PlayStation Deletes 551 Movies and the Digital Ownership Debate 08:00 DC Animation News: Absolute Batman, Joker Laugh Riot, and Krypto 14:45 Why Animation Is the Truest Form of Adaptation 18:42 Supergirl Movie Review and Comic Comparisons 32:27 Supergirl's Changed Ending and Final Ratings 37:04 Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 Review 51:04 X-Men '97 Weekly Reviews and Recommendations Key Takeaways PlayStation is removing 551 purchased movie titles from UK libraries with no refunds, reigniting the debate over whether you ever really own digital content. DC is going all in on animation with an Absolute Batman series, a Joker anime called Laugh Riot, a Krypto show from the SpongeBob team, and Tom King's Mister Miracle on the way. Supergirl works as a fun entry in the new DCU, but condensing Tom King's comic stripped out the character depth and swapped one of the best endings in modern comics for a simpler kill. Lobo is a blast on screen with real Beetlejuice energy, but he was not necessary to the plot and deserves his own standalone project, which Jason Momoa says he will only do rated R. Avatar Season 2 succeeds where Supergirl stumbles, condensing the story without cutting anything essential to the characters. Toph and Uncle Iroh stand out, and Ba Sing Se delivers. Final scores: Supergirl gets a 7 from Frank and a 10 from Jonathan, while Avatar Season 2 earns an 8 from Frank and a 9 from Jonathan. Quotes "If you find a way to watch movies, I think you're preserving history. You're not stealing." - Frank "Animation is probably the truest form of adaptation nowadays." - Frank "You're not going to be the hero in every story." - Jonathan "Don't think that the loud voices are the voices, because they're not." - Jonathan "Toph feels like Toph now." - Frank Call to Action Enjoyed the episode?

Matt and Jordan check out Julian Schnabel’s In The Hand of Dante, a rare midsummer Netflix prestige picture with a stacked cast that includes Oscar Isaac, Al Pacino, Gerard Butler, John Malkovich, Jason Momoa, and Martin Scorsese as a bearded medieval sage. Despite the talent and the reliably gorgeous cinematography, Schnabel’s film might be the worst thing Matt and Jordan have had to endure through the show’s first twelve episodes. Also on the show, some Dante-inspired streaming recommendations and streaming recs for a listener who shares little in common (movie-wise) with his spouse.

Did Supergirl miss the point of Woman of Tomorrow?Man, did we want to love Supergirl. Instead, we walked away disappointed.This episode we discuss the film's strongest positives, its biggest storytelling blunders, whether Lobo was wasted, why the emotional payoff never landed for us, and what this could all mean for the future of the DCU!By the way, the writer of the film didn't understand what happened at the end of the book, and the director proudly explained that he didn't read the book.
SUPERGIRL, the follow-up to James Gunn's SUPERMAN from last year, has finally hit theaters, and people are being totally chill and not weird at all about it. Just kidding! The discourse has reached a fever pitch, but does the movie, starring Milly Alcock as the titular heroine with an assist from Jason Momoa as Lobo and David Corenswet returning as the Man of Steel, deserve the divisive response it's getting?

Supergirl may not save humanity, but we're always here for you at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we reviewed in our latest episode: SUPERGIRL. It's getting mostly mixed-negative reviews, and we're on the lower end of that scale. We enjoyed Milly Alcock as the aggressively blasé Kara Zor-El, and we really liked Jason Momoa as the imposing Lobo, but for the most part this "Superman" follow-up is a mess. Matthias Schoenaerts and Eve Ridley co-star. In theaters. JACKASS: BEST AND LAST. After more than a quarter century, Johnny Knoxville and his rowdy, masochistic friends can still make you squirm and howl with laughter at their elaborate stunts. But this final "Jackass" movie is also surprisingly poignant. Kids, don't try this at home. In theaters. MOVIE NEWS LIVE! Always a lot to discuss, including "The Bear," "The Odyssey," Eddie Murphy's "Donkey" movie, Ken Russell's "The Devils," the death of music mogul Clive Davis and more.

How does this film compare and continue under producers Peter Safran and James Gunn's vision for DC Studios?

Hollywood's newest Supergirl is kind of a dirtbag — in the good way. Fearless and grumpy, Supergirl (Milly Alcock) sets out on a quest to support a new pal's revenge journey and to make a point that should be clear by now: Never mess with a lady's dog. Also featuring David Corenswet and Jason Momoa, is Supergirl a worthy follow up to Superman?If you want more DC superhero action, check out these episodes: 'Superman' takes off and nails the landing'The Batman' puts the emo in emoteConnect with Pop Culture Happy Hour:Letterboxd / FacebookOur weekly newsletterSupport Pop Culture Happy Hour+See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
America is celebrating its 250th birthday... and naturally The Rizzuto Show immediately derails the conversation by asking the only question that matters: what ridiculous stuff deserves to survive another 250 years? This daily comedy show goes completely off the rails as the crew debates whether future civilizations need Crocs, Stanley Cups, Ring doorbell raccoon footage, Shake Weights, CVS receipts, a single lost AirPod, Nicolas Cage himself, or maybe just Dolly Parton's legendary wigs.Speaking of Dolly, Lern dives into Dolly Parton's brand-new Tennessee travel stop, complete with BBQ, showers, merch, sparkling guitars, and enough Southern charm to make every interstate exit jealous. The conversation quickly snowballs into which musicians deserve their own themed truck stops around America, leading to debates over Nelly, Chuck Berry, Metallica, KISS, and who really owns Missouri music history.Then it's celebrity chaos as the crew breaks down the latest rumors surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's reported multi-day wedding celebration. Is Madison Square Garden really the right place? Is America being upstaged during its own birthday? And how much New York traffic can one celebrity wedding possibly create?Music fans also get plenty to chew on with Bring Me The Horizon's brutally heavy throwback release, Jason Momoa reflecting on hosting Black Sabbath's farewell celebration, memories from Ozzy Osbourne's final performances, Metallica box sets, Chris Cornell reissues, and new albums worth checking out.The celebrity news doesn't stop there.
