In this week's episode of Going Back to Smallville, we're taking a detour from Kansas and heading to Metropolis for a deep dive into Superman Returns (2006). From Brandon Routh's quiet strength to Lex's land-grab of doom, we're revisiting the film that tried to carry the legacy of Christopher Reeve into a new era. Did it work? Was the world ready for Superman's return… or had it already moved on? Join us as we unpack the emotional weight, the iconic plane rescue, and that piano scene — and ask the ultimate question: Was it actually good?GET YOUR 30 DAY FREE TRIAL OF AMAZON PRIME HERE

In this episode of The Biollywood Podcast, the Executive Director of the Bipartisan Commission on Biodefense, Dr. Asha M. George, Research Principal, J.T. O'Brien, Policy Principal, Robert Bradley, and our new intern, Madi Kim, tackle James Gunn's Superman (2025), the first film in DC Studios' new shared universe. Premise: Gunn's film drops us into a world where Superman is already an established hero. After stopping Boravia from invading Jarhanpur, Clark faces backlash and is publicly outmatched by the “Hammer of Boravia,” later revealed as Ultraman, a clone orchestrated by Lex Luthor. Luthor unleashes a kaiju in Metropolis as a diversion, infiltrates the Fortress of Solitude with the Engineer, and broadcasts the restored second half of a genuine Kryptonian message from Jor-El and Lara, in which they urge their son to conquer Earth and “take many wives” to repopulate their species—sparking a rapid collapse in public trust.

Metropolis, Delaware! Superman fights against non-Japanese Ultraman and befriends the worst Green Lantern in James Gunn's directorial debut as the new head of the DCU. We start at the Fortress of Solitude which is no longer solitudinal (Super Robots, Super Dog), moving to a bad guy military base on a beach just around the corner from Metropolis where it's always Casual Friday (Hawaiian shirt, anyone?), and the largest Hall of Justice with only the three members of the Justice Gang (terrible name, sounds more like a League). David Corenswet and Nicholas Holt dominate the show with amazing acting and, dare we say, chemistry??? Guys, they make a baby together; it's canon (Super Boy). Erin is finally on board with a Superman movie (especially Mr. Terrific and Iggy Pop) while Brennan hates Krypto. TRAIN YOUR PETS, PEOPLE!!! At the end we both agree the score could have been better, but the story is so fun, the acting is top notch, and Nathan Fillion has the WORST bowl cut for the best reasons.

Superman (2025) brings audiences a version of Lois Lane and Clark Kent who are clearly very hot for each other. But could they ever actually consummate their relationship?“Putting it delicately…do you…eat?”Pulitzer Prize winning reporter Lois LaneWelcome to Does it Fly? After Dark, the podcast that puts your favorite pop culture concepts to the test…but this time in a slightly more adult setting. That's right, for this episode, we were live in front of an audience (at Mission Brewery in San Diego, California) with our brilliant friends Rosie Knight and Jason Concepcion of I Heart Media's X-Ray Vision podcast. Honestly, we needed all the help we could get to discuss the hot button issue of the moment: how is it possible for Superman and Lois Lane to have sex?Look, anyone who watched Rachel Brosnahan and David Corenswet as Lois and Clark on screen in James Gunn's brilliant Superman movie this year absolutely could feel the heat coming off those characters from the screen. So it's not “how COULD they” so much as it is “seriously, HOW could they?” As we all know, Kryptonians are made of, um, harder stuff than humans, and folks have spent the better part of 80 years quietly asking how Superman and Lois can be intimate without serious injury to the human part of the equation.Sure, there aren't many actual scientific studies involving human to alien sex, so we examined this heat-vision hot topic from all positions…sorry…angles in a raucous, slightly more R-rated format than usual. Check it out, but beware…this episode contains adult themes and strong language!Watch the video version here! https://youtu.be/4E3Zc3uT97MThis episode of Does it Fly is brought to you by Upper Deck. Fleer Brilliants Superman shines the light on Superman and Metropolis in a bright and brilliant new way!Whether it's the 90-card base set on rainbow foil board featuring art by some of the greatest artists in Superman history or highly collectible inserts like “Classic Covers,” “Last Son of Krypton,” “World of Metropolis,” Truth, Justice, and a Batter Tomorrow” or the super rare “Powered by the Sun” cards, Fleer Brilliants Superman is the ultimate tribute to the Man of Steel and his friends, family, and foes.Head to upperdeckstore.com to start your collection, today!FURTHER VIEWINGMuch of what prompted our discussion about Clark Kent and Lois Lane actually getting down to business came from the radiation burns level hot chemistry that co-stars David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan have on screen in James Gunn's Superman (2025). You can now watch this on HBO Max if you need further proof. But also!Let's also refer you back to Richard Lester and Richard Donner's Superman II (1980) in which Clark (Christopher Reeve) temporarily gives up his powers to be with Lois (Margot Kidder) and there's a pretty sensual moment of the two of them in bed together in the Fortress of Solitude. That being said, Clark was a “normal man” there, but the fact that he had to give up his powers in order to get there might be an indication.Mid-1990s TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman often featured their Lois (Teri Hatcher) and Clark (Dean Cain) in an ongoing will they/won't they fury of sexual tension (they eventually did). But the specific episode where they learn they can't have children together because of Clark's alien biology was the series finale, season 4, episode 22.And, of course, Smallville was a remarkably horny show and there's uh…several episodes dealing with the matter of Clark (Tom Welling) having sex with human women. But one in particular is season 7, episode 7, “Wrath” in which Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk) gains powers so Clark doesn't have to worry about holding back. But the real fun with Smallville is the long and winding and horny journey, so feel free to just wallow in Clark's awkwardness throughout.We also have fun with the question of the “kryptonite condom” raised by Kevin Smith's slacker comedy classic Mallrats.FURTHER READINGDo you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! Man of Steel, Woman of KleenexYou think we're the first people to consider this topic? Famed sci-fi and fantasy author Larry Niven first tackled this topic way back in 1969 (nice!). It's available online to read here.And in the Comics…For more than half of Superman's published history, it was more or less implied that he was pretty chaste. Aside from the major romantic players in his life like Lana Lang and Lois Lane, Superman has at various times been intimate with Maxima (a powerful alien who sees Supes as perfect to have kids with), Wonder Woman (during DC's “New 52” era and a fling which is almost certainly no longer canon), and others. But the real progression of his romance with Lois Lane, which eventually leads to the birth of their son, Jon, began in the mid-90s and Jon's birth and its aftermath are depicted in the Convergence: Superman and Lois and Clark limited series by Dan Jurgens and Lee Weeks which are pretty much the starting point for their modern/current relationship.WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?The companion piece to this episode is our much more family-friendly examination of the concept of Superman getting his powers from the yellow sun of Earth.And for something not remotely sexy, we looked at the horrifying reality of the Joker toxin from Batman (1989) here.FOLLOW US!Stay in the loop!

After 10 long years of podcasting, it's finally happening! Writing, executive producing, and showrunning partners Eugenie Ross-Leming and Brad Buckner bravely venture back into 90s Metropolis to talk all things Lois & Clark! From haircuts to coordinating an alien invasion on a television budget, Eugenie and Brad were involved in every aspect of the show's third and fourth seasons and have a lifetime's worth of stories to show for it. Not to mention the rest of their television journey, which includes cameos from Norman Lear, Sam and Dean Winchester, and possibly a performing seal or two. Huge thanks to them both for being so generous with their time and insights. Can't wait to see what they make for us next!

SupermanSuperman's Box Office Triumph & DCU UpdatesThe DC Universe is taking shape, and it all starts with Superman. The film has officially crossed $614 million worldwide, with $353M domestic (57.5%) and $260M international (42.5%). James Gunn has called the movie's success the “biggest relief of his life” because if it hadn't worked, the future of the entire DCU slate—from Supergirl to Lanterns—would have been in jeopardy.Superman Box Office UpdateDomestic box office: $353,302,360International box office: $260,800,000Worldwide total: $614,102,360This breakdown shows how crucial U.S. audiences remain for superhero films, even as international numbers grow.Variety and Deadline Report on Superman Profit MarginSuperman has an 8-week profit margin of about $125 million.It is the seventh-highest grossing film of the year.By comparison Man of Steel's profit margin was $42.7 million.We explain why domestic is still more profitable to studios than international.Gunn Relieved by Superman SuccessJames Gunn admitted that Superman's success was critical for DC Studios:“If Superman didn't work, I'm the head of DC Studios! What am I gonna do now? We have Supergirl, Peacemaker Season 2, Lanterns, Clayface—they're all connected to this!”PeacemakerSuperman's Visit to the Peacemaker SetA behind-the-scenes photo dated July 23, 2024 sparked speculation. David Corenswet appeared on the Peacemaker set in full Superman costume while James Gunn was splitting directing duties between Superman and Peacemaker Season 2. Fans believe this signals a direct connection between the two projects, with Superman potentially playing a meaningful role in Peacemaker Season 2. We disagree somewhat.How Would Fleury See Hawkgirl?Fans asked James Gunn online what Fleury might think of Hawkgirl. His playful response:“I think he'd wonder what's wrong with her head and wouldn't really know.”Yes the Grammar Fuck Up Was IntentionalJames Gunn confirmed that the infamous “Your the best” typo was intentional, sparking fan discussion. He also joked about Harcourt's “Thirstcourt” side in her texts, keeping his trademark banter alive.ClayfaceClayface – Gotham City Map Easter EggsA leaked Gotham City Transit Authority map revealed nods to Batman lore: Arkham Asylum, Ace Chemical, the Iceberg Lounge, Blackgate Penitentiary, Gotham Knights sporting complex, Wayne-owned buildings, Kane Estate, and Kane Memorial Bridge. Fans debated similarities to real-world Manhattan maps (like Hell's Kitchen).Man of Tomorrow – Superman Sequel AnnouncedJames Gunn confirmed Man of Tomorrow hits theaters July 9, 2027, almost exactly two years after Superman. Gunn clarified:It's not titled Superman 2, just Man of Tomorrow.The film will explore Superman and Lex Luthor's relationship, with Nicholas Hoult's Luthor donning the green-and-purple Warsuit.Speculation: Possible villains may be Bizarro, Brainiac, or Zod.Gunn emphasized his collaborative writing process and ongoing rewrites.People Responding to James GunnThe Man of Tomorrow announcement drew reactions from DC stars and creators:Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl): “See You Soooon”Aaron Pierre (John Stewart): “Yes, Indeed!”

As she attempts processing that on top of kissing Clark, Lois decides to go to therapy. Clark has two fans, Zan and Jayna, stopping crime and posing as his hero identity The Blur. While their intentions are good, the twins absolutely suck as heroes and get The Blur in the crosshairs of Metropolis' crooked District Attorney. Chloe somehow keeps beating her own record as THE WORST F***KING BFF EVER. David Gallagher (7th Heaven, Kingdom Hearts) and Allison Scagliotti (Warehouse 13, Drake & Josh) special guest star as DC Comics original characters Zan and Jayne, respectively, a.k.a. The Wonder Twins. Fun Fact: This is the first and ONLY live-action appearance of The Wonder Twins since their 1977 debut in Super Friends. As always, enjoy the show and LEAVE THOSE FIVE STARS!

¿Qué sabemos de la historia? ¿Tenemos realmente un conocimiento ajustado de lo que sucedía en cada etapa o no hemos sabido evitar el sesgo de aquellos que se han encargado de interpretarla? Solemos disfrutar y apasionarnos con las vidas de los grandes hombres y las grandes batallas de la antigüedad; las conquistas romanas y sus grandes logros, pero ¿qué sabemos realmente de aquellos que formaban parte del escenario de fondo de esta gran superproducción que es la historia que nos han contado sobre la antigua Roma? En este podcast de El Abrazo del Oso vamos a revisar ese relato, vamos a visitar y excavar en los hogares, las granjas y los campos romanos para tratar de saber la realidad más cruda de los territorios dominados por la gran Metropoli de la antigüedad. Y lo haremos en este programa de radio con dos expertos en la materia, los arqueólogos Jesús Bermejo y Fernando Moreno. Hoy os invitamos a conocer la Roma más humana, la de los esclavos, campesinos y proletarios. Invitados: Jesús Bermejo Tirado y Fernando Moreno Navarro Episodio remasterizado el 17 de agosto de 2025.

We investigate Zack Snyder's 2013 Superman origin film Man of Steel, comparing it with the new 2025 Superman movie and reflecting on how its controversial approach continues to influence superhero films a decade later.• Krypton sequences featuring Russell Crowe and Michael Shannon stand as the film's strongest segments• Flashback structure feels disjointed and lacks clear purpose or emotional throughline• Kevin Costner's tornado death scene remains controversial and doesn't make logical sense• The massive destruction of Metropolis during the climactic battle set a precedent superhero films still react against• Henry Cavill never got the opportunity to show Superman's hopeful, optimistic side• General Zod provides a compelling villain with understandable motivations• The film's neck-snap ending needed more emotional aftermath to be effective• DC's rushed attempt to create a cinematic universe ultimately undermined what could have been a thoughtful trilogy• Animated Superman adaptations like "My Adventures with Superman" often capture the character better than live-actionLetterbox'd Synopsis: A young boy learns that he has extraordinary powers and is not of this earth. As a young man, he journeys to discover where he came from and what he was sent here to do. But the hero in him must emerge if he is to save the world from annihilation and become the symbol of hope for all mankind.

In Part 2 of our conversation with legendary comic creator Jerry Ordway, we pivot from Metropolis to Marvel as Jerry shares his candid thoughts on the legacy and missed opportunities of the Fantastic Four movies—especially from the perspective of someone who's spent time chronicling Marvel's first family on the page. We also get some memorable Stan Lee stories, offering insight into the man behind the myth from someone who's seen the industry evolve up close.But this episode isn't just nostalgia—we dive into the more complex aspects of comic book history, including how creators depicted people of color during the Golden and Silver Ages. Jerry speaks honestly about the era's blind spots and how the medium has both reflected and shaped cultural attitudes over time. It's a thoughtful, wide-ranging conversation with one of comics' most respected voices. 

We venture back to Metropolis as we finally get to discuss the DC films revival with James Gunn's take on Superman. Journey with us as we discuss this new iteration of the Man of Steel played by David Corenswet along with all the unique side characters they decide to introduce. Is this the fresh restart fans have been hoping for or does the film try to do too much? So pour a drink, grab a copy of the Daily Planet, and get ready to see if Superman can still fly. Cheers!

The Atom Man is in Metropolis! The Nazi agent with kryptonite in his veins gets a job at the Daily Planet as reporter "Henry Miller," and the Man of Steel is about to meet his greatest and deadliest enemy. Superman and the Atom Man have their first titanic battle as this epic story continues in these chapters that originally aired on Mutual between October 22 and November 2, 1945.

Mike is joined by Father Malone (Midnight Viewing) and Chris Stachiw (The Kulturecast) to discuss James Gunn's first foray as the head of the "DCU" with his 2025 film, Superman. It's a new interpretation of the Man of Steel as David Corenswet takes to the skies as the lone son of Krypton watches over the people of Earth, much to the chagrin of Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult). It's a surprisingly decent entry from DC that may pave the way to a less-dour vision of superheroes.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.

At last, I finally understand the dangers of investing in Krypto Director James Gunn leaves Guardians of the Galaxy behind to launch DC Studios, starting with the 2025 resurrection of Superman. But can David Corenswet be a Man of Steel to Metropolis after Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) smears his good name in a social media campaign that questions why dad Bradley Cooper sent him to Earth? And is the narrative even harder to control when reporter-girlfriend Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) challenges the way “Big Blue” protects foreign countries from invasion? Get the full scoop as the Now Playing Gang reunites.

Sci Fi July launches with a titan of cinematic futurism: Metropolis (1927). Fritz Lang's visually stunning epic set the blueprint for dystopian science fiction, blending Gothic horror, political allegory, and machine-age spectacle. Co-written with Thea von Harbou, the film envisions a divided city of soaring towers and subterranean toil, where Freder—the privileged son of master planner Joh Fredersen—awakens to injustice through his encounter with the spiritual leader of the working class, Maria.Mike is joined by Ranjit Sandhu and Federico Bertolini to discuss the many versions of the film, its fraught production, the complex legacy of Lang and von Harbou, and why Rotwang's lab never goes out of style. From Giger to Gaga, Metropolis casts a long, haunting shadow.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth-podcast--5513239/support.
