Os anéis estão carregados e o Reflix 182 está no ar! Desta vez, Brunão e Baconzitos mergulham no primeiro episódio de Lanternas, uma das séries mais aguardadas do novo universo da DC e que acaba de estrear na HBO Max. E pode esquecer, pelo menos por enquanto, a ideia de uma aventura espacial tomada por batalhas cósmicas. Lanternas escolhe outro caminho: coloca Hal Jordan e John Stewart no centro de uma investigação policial cercada de mistérios, estranhezas e sinais de que existe algo muito maior escondido sob a aparente tranquilidade do interior dos Estados Unidos. A série estreou em 16 de agosto, terá oito episódios lançados semanalmente e traz Kyle Chandler como Hal Jordan e Aaron Pierre como John Stewart. A criação é de Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof e Tom King, com produção da DC Studios e Warner Bros. Television. Lanternas encontra sua própria identidade? Essa é uma das principais perguntas do novo Reflix. Desde os primeiros minutos, Lanternas deixa claro que pretende se afastar da fórmula tradicional das produções de super-heróis. O ponto de partida é uma ocorrência que Hal Jordan acredita ter origem extraterrestre e que acaba colocando o veterano Lanterna Verde e seu ainda inexperiente substituto, John Stewart, diante de um mistério que vai muito além de uma investigação comum. O clima é de suspense policial, com uma história mais terrena, personagens carregados de conflitos e uma estrutura que não tem pressa de revelar todas as suas cartas. Mas essa combinação funciona? Hal Jordan e John Stewart são o coração da estreia No Reflix 182, Brunão e Baconzitos detalham a relação entre os dois protagonistas e como o primeiro episódio utiliza justamente suas diferenças para sustentar a história. De um lado está Hal Jordan, experiente, desgastado e nada empolgado com a perspectiva de passar o bastão. Do outro, John Stewart, disciplinado, desconfiado e tentando entender não apenas como usar o poder que recebeu, mas qual é exatamente o seu lugar nessa história. A tensão entre veterano e novato rapidamente se transforma em um dos elementos mais interessantes da série. E Kyle Chandler e Aaron Pierre mostram desde a estreia que a química entre os personagens pode ser uma das principais forças de Lanternas. True Detective com anéis de poder? A comparação é inevitável — e o próprio projeto foi apresentado desde cedo como uma história investigativa ambientada na Terra. Só que o Reflix vai além da comparação. Brunão e Baconzitos discutem se essa mistura entre drama policial, ficção científica e universo de super-heróis realmente encontra equilíbrio, o quanto a série aproveita a mitologia dos Lanternas Verdes e se essa abordagem mais contida consegue entregar a grandiosidade que os personagens carregam nos quadrinhos. E, claro, tem aquele final. Sem entregar aqui o que acontece, o primeiro episódio deixa uma enorme pergunta sobre a mesa e muda completamente a maneira como podemos enxergar o restante da temporada. O novo DCU está no caminho certo? Lanternas também representa mais uma peça importante na construção do universo comandado por James Gunn e Peter Safran. Por isso, além de discutir o episódio isoladamente, o Reflix 182 olha para o que a série pode representar dentro desse novo DCU, as conexões já colocadas na mesa e as possibilidades abertas para Hal Jordan, John Stewart e toda a mitologia dos Lanternas Verdes. Valeu a espera? A abordagem policial funciona? Kyle Chandler convence como Hal Jordan? Aaron Pierre é o John Stewart que os fãs esperavam? Dê o play no Reflix 182 e venha discutir com Brunão e Baconzitos. ⚠️ Atenção: o episódio do Reflix contém spoilers do primeiro episódio de Lanternas. Dê o play, deixe sua opinião e conte para a gente: Lanternas começou com luz verde ou já merece uma advertência dos Guardiões?
Roxy Striar and Mike Kalinowski are taking over The Kristian Harloff Show today to break down the biggest stories in Marvel, DC, and Hollywood! The main conversation centers on Avengers: Doomsday and whether Marvel Studios' massive December event movie could actually shatter the box office records recently set by Spider-Man: Brand New Day. With Robert Downey Jr. returning to the MCU as Doctor Doom, the Avengers assembling alongside characters from the X-Men and Fantastic Four, and anticipation continuing to build, just how big can Avengers: Doomsday get? Roxy and Mike discuss whether Doomsday could become a historic box office event and potentially challenge the biggest movies of all time. Marvel is also preparing audiences for Doomsday in a big way. Disney has revealed a pre-Avengers: Doomsday watchlist, while new information about Marvel Studios' 2028 slate gives us a better idea of where the MCU could be heading after Doomsday and toward Avengers: Secret Wars. We'll combine both stories to discuss Marvel's larger strategy and the future of the MCU. Then it's time for a LANTERNS SPOILER REVIEW! Roxy and Mike dive into HBO and DC Studios' Lanterns, discussing the series with full spoilers, the biggest moments, what worked, what didn't, and what it means for the larger DCU.

Finally, the writer of Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow has spoken out about DC's Supergirl movie following its theatrical run. What happened with the film, and what does its performance mean for the future of James Gunn and Peter Safran's DCU?

Greg Alba, John Humphrey & Coy Jandreau react to Lanterns Episode 1 in this series-premiere commentary, review, and breakdown of HBO's new Green Lantern crime drama. Veteran Lantern Hal Jordan is assigned to train rookie John Stewart before the mismatched partners investigate a mysterious murder in rural Nebraska—one that could expose a much larger threat to Earth and the Green Lantern Corps. From the 1996 television interview and Kyle Chandler's first full Green Lantern suit reveal to John Stewart receiving his ring, the tense mentor-student dynamic, and the investigation's first clues, Greg, John & Coy enter James Gunn's DCU Chapter One: Gods and Monsters—all without spoilers here! Lanterns Episode 1 Full Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects Created by Chris Mundy (Ozark, True Detective), Damon Lindelof (Watchmen, Lost), and DC Comics writer Tom King, Lanterns stars Kyle Chandler as Hal Jordan (Friday Night Lights, Manchester by the Sea), Aaron Pierre as John Stewart (Rebel Ridge, Mufasa: The Lion King), Kelly Macdonald as Sheriff Kerry Kane (Boardwalk Empire, No Country for Old Men), Garret Dillahunt as William Macon (Fear the Walking Dead, Raising Hope), Poorna Jagannathan as Zoe Macon (Never Have I Ever, The Night Of), Jason Ritter as Billy Macon (Gravity Falls, Parenthood), Ulrich Thomsen as Thaal Sinestro (Banshee, The Celebration), and Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner (Superman, Firefly).

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.
HOLY HELL, DC IS ACTUALLY GOING THERE!! Greg Alba & Coy Jandreau react to the brand-new CLAYFACE Official Trailer from DC Studios, released during SDCC 2026 week! Fresh off the massive Avengers: Doomsday trailer, San Diego Comic-Con continues with our first full look at this R-rated DCU body-horror movie set in Gotham City. In our Clayface trailer reaction, breakdown, and review, we discuss Tom Rhys Harries as struggling actor Matt Hagen, his horrifying transformation into the classic Batman villain, Naomi Ackie as Dr. Caitlyn Corr, Max Minghella as Gotham detective John Pearlman, and director James Watkins fully embracing the grotesque horror of movies like The Fly and The Substance. The practical effects, melting faces, scissors scene, nanotechnology serum, psychological horror, and tragic character story all make this feel completely different from anything Marvel or DC has attempted before. We also talk about James Gunn and Peter Safran's DC Universe, Mike Flanagan's original Clayface script, this movie's place in the DCU, the absence of Batman, potential connections to the Caped Crusader, Matt Reeves' The Batman Part II, Robert Pattinson's Batman universe, DC Studios at San Diego Comic-Con, and whether Clayface could become one of the most disturbing comic-book movies ever made.

Supergirl is a 2026 American superhero film based on the DC Comics superheroine Kara Zor-El / Supergirl. Directed by Craig Gillespie and written by Ana Nogueira, it is the second film in the DC Universe (DCU). Milly Alcock stars in the title role, alongside Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley, David Krumholtz, Emily Beecham, David Corenswet, and Jason Momoa. In the film, Kara embarks on a journey across the galaxy to hunt down an adversary who has harmed her pet dog Krypto. The film is produced by Peter Safran and James Gunn of DC Studios.A film featuring Supergirl entered development as part of the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) franchise in August 2018, and the character was introduced in the 2023 film The Flash, portrayed by Sasha Calle. Plans for the standalone project were altered when Gunn and Safran became co-CEOs of DC Studios in October 2022, and they began work on the DCU as a reboot of the DCEU. A new Supergirl film was announced in January 2023 as an adaptation of the 2021–22 comic book miniseries Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King and Bilquis Evely. Nogueira was hired by November 2023; Alcock was cast in January 2024 to debut in the first DCU film, Superman (2025); and Gillespie joined that May. Filming took place from January to May 2025 at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden and London in England, and in Scotland.Supergirl premiered at the Plaza at 300 Ashland in Brooklyn on June 22, 2026, and was theatrically released by Warner Bros. Pictures in the United States on June 26. It is part of the DCU's Chapter One: Gods and Monsters. It received mixed reviews from critics, and has grossed $107 million against a production budget of $170–186 million. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Episode 299 of Tom Clark's 6M Podcast is a look at Supergirl (2026). Tom Clark and Phil Lindsey break down the second film in DC Studios' new DC Universe, examining Milly Alcock's darker take on Kara Zor-El, the film's adaptation of Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, and how its revenge-driven space adventure differs from the hopeful tone established in Superman. They also discuss the film's long road to the big screen, James Gunn and Peter Safran's creative direction for the new DCU, and behind-the-scenes stories from the production. The conversation covers the performances of Milly Alcock, Eve Ridley, Jason Momoa, and David Corenswet, along with the movie's mixed critical reception, disappointing box office performance, and what Supergirl could mean for the future of the franchise. Does this emotionally scarred version of Kara Zor-El offer a compelling new direction for the character, or does the film struggle to balance its cosmic adventure with its darker themes?

DC Studios is developing a mystery series centered on Mr. Terrific, with Edi Gathegi returning to the role he made a standout in Superman. In this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, Frank breaks down why this is exactly the kind of move DC should be making, calling Mr. Terrific criminally underutilized and praising Gathegi's on-screen presence, from his intelligence and wisdom to his instantly memorable action moments.Frank also gets into the bigger picture: representation matters, and Mr. Terrific could be a landmark character as an autistic-coded hero whose mind is his greatest strength. Plus, after chatter about Supergirl's struggles, this announcement signals that James Gunn and Peter Safran are sticking to their plan of elevating niche characters instead of playing it safe with the Trinity. If Gunn could turn Guardians of the Galaxy into a household name, Mr. Terrific could be next.Timestamps:00:00 DC announces a Mr. Terrific mystery series with Edi Gathegi returning00:15 Why Mr. Terrific stole scenes in Superman00:31 Autistic-coded representation and why it matters00:59 The Gunn and Safran plan: betting on niche characters over playing it safe01:30 Final thoughts and why this character can be a household nameKey Takeaways:DC is developing a mystery series built around Mr. Terrific, with Edi Gathegi reprising his Superman role.Frank believes Mr. Terrific has been criminally underutilized and proved his screen appeal in Superman.The character reads as autistic coded, and a hero whose neurodivergence is a strength could be groundbreaking representation.This announcement suggests DC is not retreating to safe Trinity-only projects after Supergirl's mixed reception.James Gunn has a proven track record of turning lesser-known characters like the Guardians of the Galaxy into global icons.Memorable Quotes:"I personally think he's criminally underutilized.""If you could show a superhero who's autistic and not held back by that in any way, matter of fact, I'd argue, was a strength of his.

Supergirl non è la serie TV con Melissa Benoist, non è il film del 1984 e non è una comparsata qualsiasi nel multiverso DC: è il nuovo film DC con Milly Alcock nei panni di Kara Zor-El, ispirato a Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow e inserito nel nuovo DCU supervisionato da James Gunn e Peter Safran. Sulla carta c'era tutto: una protagonista forte, un fumetto di partenza molto interessante, Krypto, Lobo, Superman, un'impostazione da western spaziale e una Supergirl più cupa, più ferita e più ambigua rispetto all'immagine classica dei kryptoniani. Il problema è che il film diretto da Craig Gillespie sembra sempre sul punto di diventare qualcosa di interessante, ma non riesce mai davvero a farlo. In questa recensione spoiler free di Spin-Off – Un Podcast di Recenserie, Federico analizza perché Supergirl è un'occasione mancata: Milly Alcock funziona, Kara ha potenziale, alcune idee arrivano, ma la sceneggiatura è troppo fragile, il viaggio troppo episodico, Ruthye troppo poco incisiva e Krem of the Yellow Hills troppo debole come villain. Si parla anche della promessa “script first” di James Gunn per il nuovo DCU, del confronto con Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, del ruolo di Lobo interpretato da Jason Momoa, della presenza molto controllata di Superman e di un finale che lascia intravedere il film più interessante che Supergirl avrebbe potuto essere.

A lo largo de la historia del cine se han estrenado producciones que han marcado récords de taquilla y generado enormes beneficios para los grandes estudios. Títulos como *Star Wars*, *Titanic*, *Avatar* o las películas del universo Marvel son algunos de los ejemplos más conocidos. Sin embargo, la industria también ha sufrido importantes tropiezos económicos con proyectos que no lograron conquistar al público. Uno de los casos más recientes es *SuperGirl*, la nueva apuesta de DC y Warner, que se perfila como uno de los mayores fracasos cinematográficos de 2026. Con una inversión cercana a los 300 millones de dólares, sus primeros resultados han estado muy por debajo de lo esperado. En Estados Unidos, la película apenas ha recaudado 37 millones de dólares, mientras que su cifra mundial ronda los 67 millones. Las previsiones de varios analistas indican que difícilmente superará los 200 millones en total, lo que supondría pérdidas cercanas a los 100 millones para el estudio. Aunque todavía queda pendiente su estreno en plataformas digitales, la decepción ha sido evidente. Peter Safran, uno de los máximos responsables de DC Studios, reconoció públicamente que la cinta no ha alcanzado las expectativas previstas. De esta forma, se suma a otros títulos de DC que tampoco lograron el éxito esperado, como *Green Lantern*, *Flash* o *Shazam*. La historia del cine ya ha vivido otros fracasos todavía más graves. Uno de los ejemplos más recordados es *La puerta del cielo*, dirigida por Michael Cimino tras el éxito de *El cazador*. A pesar de reunir un reparto de primer nivel, la película costó alrededor de 40 millones de dólares y solo recuperó tres en taquilla. Los continuos retrasos en el rodaje y su excesiva duración contribuyeron a un desastre financiero que terminó provocando la desaparición de United Artists como estudio independiente. Ni siquiera las grandes compañías se han librado de sufrir pérdidas millonarias. El fracaso comercial de *Titan A.E.* llevó al cierre de la división de animación de Fox, mientras que Disney perdió más de 200 millones con *John Carter* y también obtuvo resultados decepcionantes con *The Marvels*. Steven Spielberg tampoco escapó a esta tendencia, ya que la última entrega de *Indiana Jones* generó importantes pérdidas. Incluso adaptaciones de enorme prestigio, como *Cats*, basada en el famoso musical de Broadway, acabaron convirtiéndose en costosos fracasos tras recaudar muy por debajo de lo esperado.

The DCU has been re-formatted like a hard drive sporting Windows 95, and two films deep, the question is now being asked: Is it working? The boys are back with their take on that question, as they consider the merits of a punk-metal version of Supergirl versus her 80s predecessor and consider whether James Gunn and Peter Safran have their finger on the pulse of fans the world over. Is it time to panic that the DCU is going the way of the DCEU before it, or should everyone just take a chill-pill and enjoy Supergirl for what it is? Find out as The Countdown continues ...

We're celebrating summer by heading to the drive-in! Over the next two weeks, we're bringing you a double bill of blockbuster movies from last summer. Maybe you saw them, maybe you missed them, but we think you'll enjoy Last Summer's Drive-In Movie Double Feature! Grab a corndog, tune in your radio, or hang that weird staticky speaker in your window… our first feature is starting now! In 2022, after Discovery, Inc. and WarnerMedia merged to become Warner Bros. Discovery, CEO David Zaslav hired director James Gunn and producer Peter Safran to lead the newly-formed DC Studios, rebooting the divisive and ultimately financially unsuccessful DC Extended Universe, the so-called Snyderverse, into what is simply known as the DC Universe. The first official film in the new DCU slate, called "Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters," (nod to last week) was a soft-reboot of the universe focusing on the same character Zach Snyder used in 2013 to start his universe: the Man of Steel himself, the Last Son of Krypton, Superman. With the vibe of "we now join the program already in progress," this overstuffed actioner sees David Corenswet don the tights as Kal-El / Clark Kent, Nicholas Hoult shave his head as Lex Luthor, and Rachel Broshnan step behind the keyboard as intrepid reporter Lois Lane. Oh, and there's about a bajillion other people in this movie (plus one cute CGI dog and some robots) because let's just throw the spaghetti at the wall and see what sticks. Imagine the pastabilities! Earth's yellow sun was shining, however, as the film scored the tenth highest-grossing release of 2025, was the highest-grossing superhero film of that year, and was the first DC-based film to surpass all Marvel films released within a single year since The Dark Knight in 2008 - when the first Iron Man hit screens. But with this film's spin-off/follow-up already in theaters and a sequel in production, is Superman still bulletproof or has this pocket universe already met its Kryptonite?

DC Studios is currently facing significant scrutiny following the disappointing box office and critical performance of Supergirl. The highly anticipated summer blockbuster severely underperformed, leading to intense speculation about the stability of co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran's 10-year cinematic universe strategy. Let's discuss.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Supergirl is a 2026 superhero film based on the DC Comics character, directed by Craig Gillespie from a screenplay by Ana Nogueira. Produced by DC Studios' James Gunn and Peter Safran, it is the second theatrical entry in the new DC Universe (DCU). Milly Alcock stars as Kara Zor-El alongside Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley, David Krumholtz, Emily Beecham, David Corenswet, and Jason Momoa. Adapted from Tom King and Bilquis Evely's acclaimed Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, the film follows Kara on a galaxy-spanning quest for vengeance that ultimately forces her to confront grief, justice, and her own identity. A standalone Supergirl project had been in development during the DC Extended Universe era after Sasha Calle's debut in The Flash (2023), but Gunn and Safran rebooted the concept following their appointment as co-heads of DC Studios in 2022. Filmed in England and Scotland during early 2025, Supergirl premiered in Brooklyn on June 22, 2026, opened nationwide on June 26 as part of DCU Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, received mixed reviews from critics, and has grossed approximately $63 million worldwide to date.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

The conversation then turns to what’s ahead, including Lanterns, Clayface, and Man of Tomorrow, before closing with the looming Paramount–Skydance acquisition of Warner Bros.

SUPERMAN CAMEO ALREADY?! Greg Alba, Coy Jandreau, and Roxy Striar react to the brand-new Supergirl trailer from DC Studios and James Gunn's DCU! This new look gives us a much better sense of the movie's tone, scale, and emotional core, including our best trailer look yet at Milly Alcock's Kara Zor-El / Supergirl, Jason Momoa's Lobo, the destruction and trauma tied to Argo, the intergalactic revenge quest with Ruthye, and the major role Krypto plays in kicking off the story. Director Craig Gillespie has described the film as a sci-fi epic inspired in part by True Grit and John Wick, with Kara helping Ruthye track down Krem after Ruthye's family is murdered and Krypto is poisoned. In this trailer reaction, we talk about the melancholy vibe, the heavier emotional weight compared to Superman, the cosmic scope, the action, the visual style, and how much more tragic and battle-worn this version of Supergirl feels. We also get into Lobo's presence, how important Ruthye looks to the story, the destruction of Argo City / Kryptonian life, and what the movie seems to be setting up for Kara emotionally as she moves through this revenge-driven DCU adventure. Craig Gillespie said the film digs deep into Krypton's culture and Argo specifically to shape Kara's personality and pain, which is all over this footage. We also discuss the Superman connection / cameo angle, since David Corenswet's Superman is expected to appear alongside Kara in the film after her DCU debut path was tied to Superman, and the trailer continues to make this feel like a true extension of the new shared universe James Gunn and Peter Safran are building. Supergirl stars Milly Alcock, Jason Momoa, Eve Ridley, Matthias Schoenaerts, David Krumholtz, and Emily Beecham, and it hits theaters and IMAX on June 26, 2026. As for the upcoming DCU movie slate under James Gunn, the current theatrical lineup includes Supergirl (June 26, 2026), Clayface (September 2026), and Man of Tomorrow (July 2027), while other DCU film projects in development include The Brave and the Bold, Swamp Thing, The Authority, Teen Titans, and Wonder Woman Follow Roxy Striar YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@TheWhirlGirls Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roxystriar/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/roxystriar Follow Coy Jandreau: Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@coyjandreau?l...

Opening Credits: This week on Live Breathe Film with Doug and Murph...Feature Presentation: WBD (and Doug) Won the Summer Box Office - The key to victory this year in our box office pools has been to draft films released from the David Zaslav's superteam of Michael De Luca, Pam Abdy, Peter Safran, and James Gunn. After A Minecraft Movie and Sinners led Murph to victory in the Winter/Spring Box Office Pool, Doug came roaring back to life this summer largely thanks to Final Destination Bloodlines, F1, Superman, and Weapons.Mid-Credits: The Conjuring Continues Warner Bros. Streak - Doug drafted The Conjuring and One Battle After Another in our Fall Box Office Pool. Will the final two biggies from WBD lead him to victory once again? The massive comeback for The Conjuring franchise to kick off the season would lead us to believe it's possible despite an anime drafted late by Murph coming in hot.End Credits: Please make sure to Like, Follow, and Subscribe to Live Breathe Film!

Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Superman: 5:35 Superman: Legacy (2025) Summary James Gunn reboots the Man of Steel with David Corenswet as Superman/Clark Kent—not an origin story, but a story of an established hero dealing with political intrigue, social media hate campaigns, and survival in a fractured world. The film blends humor and cosmic stakes as Superman relies on allies like Krypto, the Justice Gang (Green Lantern Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl, Mr. Terrific, and Metamorpho), and Lois Lane to stop Lex Luthor's manipulative war plot.

Reactions: Critics love its comic-book tone, strong lead performance, and refreshing humor—Rotten Tomatoes sits around 86–91%, calling it “one of DC's best since Batman '89.” Common criticisms include overstuffed plot, chaotic visuals in the final act, and a tone that may alienate some legacy fans.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for May 15, 2025 is: impervious im-PER-vee-us adjective Impervious describes that which does not allow something (such as water or light) to enter or pass through. It is also used formally to mean “not bothered or affected by something.” Both senses of impervious are usually used with to. // The material is impervious to water. // The mayor seems impervious to criticism. See the entry > Examples: “All of this ups the already sky-high stakes for ‘Superman,' which relaunches the DC Universe under the direction of Gunn and Peter Safran. The film is the studio's best hope at fielding a billion-dollar blockbuster in 2025, but even the Man of Steel isn't impervious to box office Kryptonite.” — Rebecca Rubin, Variety, 17 Jan. 2025 Did you know? Finding your way through some words' etymologies can lead to surprising discoveries of origins that seemingly have little to do with their modern-day meanings. Impervious, which entered English in the early 1600s, is not one of those words—its history is entirely straightforward. The Latin ancestor of impervious is impervius, which adds the prefix im-, meaning “not,” to pervius, meaning “passable or penetrable.” Pervius in turn comes from per, meaning “through,” and via, meaning “way.” Impervious, it follows, describes things that don't allow a way through something, whether literally (as in “asphalt, concrete, and other surfaces that are impervious to rain”) or figuratively (as in “impervious to criticism/pressure”). The opposite of impervious, pervious, entered English at around the same time, but it is much less common.
We know how important the new Superman movie is for DC. There is a report that is confirming just that and also suggests that Peter Safran might be set to leave WB and DC. What does this mean for the overall future of DC? The numbers for Captain America Brave New World final box offie are in and the news is not great for Marvel. It is officially the lowest money maker at the box office for Marvel to date. Can the once teflon studio come back with their next few releases or is this the fall of Rome? House of the Dragon new, Last Of Us news and Snow White might cancel it's premiere in the UK?

Happy Monday all. Just dropped big news when it comes to the DC movie world! James Gunn hosted a secret meeting to press about the future of DC. James Gunn and Peter Safran, co-heads of DC Studios, provide an update on their vision for DC's interconnected universe, titled "Gods and Monsters." Their plan includes releasing two live-action films, one animated film, and multiple TV series each year. In 2025, the focus will be on Peacemaker Season 2. Key upcoming projects include Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, Clayface, The Batman 2, Batman: Brave and the Bold, and Swamp Thing. Several TV series are in development, including Waller, Lanterns, Booster Gold, and Paradise Lost. Gunn and Safran aim to unify the DC brand across TV and film for a cohesive, engaging experience for fans. We break down all the news that released from it! Lucas film just dropped the first trailer for season 2 of Andor and we break it down! There is a lot going on in the world of movie news but no story is bigger right now than the Baldoni Lively feud. Ryan Reynolds is caught up in it and it seems like reputations have been tarnished. Is Disney going to stay clear of this and give Deadpool and smaller role in the MCU? Will Deadpool 4 take a seat? Or will the pursuit of more money be too much for the mouse house to ignore? The SAG Awards happened and there were some surprises, are we looking for some shockers. Is a new Deathstroke for DC almost announced? The Rock wants Cody Rhodes soul.
