We're remembering the late great director (and Trailers From Hell Guru) Jonathan Kaplan (1947–2025) and re-running our chat with the director of Over The Edge, The Accused, and many more.

James Gunn's Superman (2025) is in cinemas right now, and is really good! It has a wonderful central performance by David Corenswet, and is as colourful as it is hopeful, and we need that right now. As I'm off this week, it felt like a good time to revisit the late Christopher Reeve's iconic performance in Superman (1978).Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's Verbal Diorama's Heroes Through the Decades miniseries, continuing into the 1970s!Whether you know him as Clark Kent, Kal-El, the Man of Steel, the Man of Tomorrow, or just as Superman, that famous tights-and-cape combo emblazoned with the S on his chest is a symbol of a lot of things:Hope, courage, freedom, love... truth, justice and the American way, and a movie with a rich history in comic books, that was made in part because of Zorro, and in another due to 1966's Batman.The late Christopher Reeve is perfectly cast as both Clark Kent and Superman, in a landmark superhero film by the late Richard Donner. Donner's personality clashes with father-and-son producers Alexander and Ilya Salkind led to him being fired from Superman II, despite him completing reportedly 75% of the sequel....This episode was originally released on 5th May 2022Mentioned in this episode:From the ArchiveThere's no new episode this week, so I thought you might be interested in revisiting this slightly older, but no less brilliant episode. Just bear in mind, this episode is several years old, it may not sound quite as polished as newer episodes, and new information may have come to light in recent years with regards to the making of this movie (please see above for the original date of release) Please enjoy this time capsule of an episode.

LexG on the new Superman, which means mostly a lot of riffing about Superman II and Superman III, as well as quick looks at legacy sequels Happy Gilmore 2, I Know What You Did Last Summer, and Karate Kid Legends, which raises the question of whether these things can ever truly please fans of the original.

In this episode of the show we are concluding our July adventure with Richard Lester with a double header of Superman II and Superman III. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about how Superman II wrote the playbook for a comic book movie sequel, how it humanizes Superman while also further denuding the many problems this character will continue to have in future movies. We talked about Lester's absurdist vibes creeping into the operation and blossoming in the third sequel, Richard Pryor as a comic relief villain and how to make Superman evil all you need to do is ask him not to shave for a day and give him eyeliner.

This week, we dive headfirst into Superman from the iconic charm of Christopher Reeve in Superman (1978), into the chaos of Superman II (1980), all the way to the brand-new 2025 reboot. Guests Adam Beam and Rachel Clow are along to explore what's changed, what's endured, and whether truth, justice, and hope still have a place in today's superhero landscape. Along the way, we're sipping on two stellar brews: Solar Myth from Real Ale Brewing, a cosmic IPA that packs a bright punch, and Life in the Clouds from Collective Arts Brewing, a hazy, dreamlike companion to our cinematic flight. It's nostalgia vs. modern spectacle, capes vs. cynicism, and a couple of great beers to keep things grounded. Up, up, and pour away.
Welcome to the Summer of Superman at the All-New Culture Cast. The next few weeks, we are looking at Superman movies. Starting off, we look at Superman: The Movie and Superman II! Do these hold up? Or are they movies that you had to be there for?
Welcome to the original Snyder Cut! Well, kind of....Released in 2006, Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut is a re-edited director's cut of Superman II (1980). In fact, the edits are so dramatic that it is like watching an entirely different movie.The back story is that Superman I and II were being filmed simultaneously, but prior to the completion of Superman II, the director (Richard Donner) was unceremoniously fired and replaced by Richard Lester, who completed the second movie. Come join us as we look at both versions!

We're back in the Labyrinth this week and taking flight with James Gunn's Superman (2025)! With the Man of Steel soaring back into theaters, we revisit the legendary lineup of Superman actors, TV shows, movies, villains, and more. Who wore the cape best? Who made us believe a man could fly? And just how many times can Lex Luthor escape prison?
In honor of the James Gunn Superman, we continue our Supermonth! This week on Myopia Movies, we leap tall plot holes in a single bound and confront the chaos of Superman II (1980)—a sequel caught in a tug-of-war between two directors, studio meddling, and a trio of space fascists in disco pajamas. We ask: Does the Man of Steel's second outing still soar, or does it crash under the weight of tonal whiplash, questionable powers, and a very random kiss of forgetfulness? Join us as we revisit the strange saga behind the scenes, mourn the Donner cut that could have been, and try to figure out how cellophane chest symbols became an acceptable weapon. Tune in, or kneel before Zod. Make sure to like and subscribe wherever you are getting this! Please leave us a review and follow us everywhere! How will Superman II (1980) hold up? Host: Nic Panel: Alex, Keiko, Matthew Directed by: Richard Lester – after Richard Donner was fired Starring: Christopher Reeve, Margot Kidder, Gene Hackman, Terence Stamp, Sarah Douglas
“You've got ME? Who's got YOU?!?Lois LaneWith a new Superman movie now in theaters (James Gunn's aptly titled Superman) it's time to take a look at one of the biggest conundrums in all of popular culture. Just where do Superman's powers come from? While there have been conflicting explanations for this given by comics, TV shows, animated series, and movies through the decades, one point has taken hold pretty solidly for most of the character's eight-plus decades: many of Superman's powers come from the fact that he comes from a race of aliens who developed under a red sun, which means our more intensely radiant yellow sun charges up his cells and gives him his amazing abilities.The nature of Superman's powers had been addressed in different ways in the comics over the years (at one point, ALL Kryptonians were simply born with super powers, before explanations like Earth's lighter gravity, our yellow sun, and others were added to the mythos). But the first media adaptation that really tried to address the source of his powers came with Richard Donner's masterful Superman: The Movie (1978). In that film, no less than Marlon Brando as Jor-El patiently explains to the audience the ways a Kryptonian would adapt to Earth's environment and the powers one might get.Look, there's only so much realism we can expect with a character like Superman, who is more of an ideal to strive for than a hard science fiction character. But we dive into the science and the story, and also discuss the timeless vibes that make that first proper Superman movie such an enduring classic in this episode.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9jeGwHn57EFURTHER VIEWINGMuch of this episode's discussion was based around two of the best superhero movies ever made, Superman (1978) and Superman II (1980). While Christopher Reeve might be the most perfect piece of superhero casting ever, the other two movies in that franchise are uneven at best. But there's other Superman media that address the source of the Man of Steel's powers!While divisive, Zack Snyder's Man of Steel made a valiant effort to explain why Superman can do the things he does (including the yellow sun). And James Gunn's currently in theaters Superman (2025) leans heavily on the solar power angle. It's also just an absolute blast and the best superhero movie in years.FURTHER READINGKrypton and Its SunThere are two main ingredients in Superman's home planet that are said to contribute to his powers on Earth. One is that Krypton itself is habitable (and potentially with heavier gravity), and in order for that to be the case, it has to exist in the habitable zone of the star it orbits. Proxima Centauri B is one such world that has captured scientists' attention.The one more relevant to today's discussion is that Superman was born under a red sun, which makes Earth's yellow sun supercharge his cells. In Krypton's case, that's a dying star known as a red giant. Which brings us to…A quick guide to the different colors of stars. Although, as Hakeem points out, Earth's sun isn't yellow, but green! Eventually, it will turn red, but that's a problem none of us will be around to see.KryptochondriaWe all remember photosynthesis from elementary school, right? But in order for human (or animal in the case of Krypto the Superdog) cells to be charged up with solar radiation to the degree necessary for superheroics, cellular organelles and ribosomes would have to function differently. Also the amount of the neurotransmitter known as adenosine triphosphate (creatine devotees know all about ATP) it would take to generate the energy for super-feats is prohibitive.We confess that following Hakeem on the matter of the absorption spectrum is a little challenging, but don't just take our word for it! Failed Flying Techniques and More!Tamara gives us a red giant batch of story analysis and background info in this one, but because seeing is believing, some stuff is better watched than read. For more context on Superman: The Movie and the incredible effort it took to make you believe a man could fly, check out The Magic Behind the Cape (where we get the “best special effect of all” that Tamara quotes) and Front Projection 101. Also, somewhere on a Superman: The Movie Blu-ray extra that doesn't appear to be online, there is video evidence of the “dummy shot out of an air cannon” failed flying technique Tamara brings up, but we can't link it here!

It's that time, gang! James Gunn's SUPERMAN is finally here, and Evan and Megan saw it. Is it good? Is it an origin story? Is it better than SUPERMAN IV: THE QUEST FOR PEACE? Do they like the dog? Does David Corenswet hold his own against Christopher Reeve's legacy? Evan and Megan have lots to say, and they also have some observations about Richard Donner's SUPERMAN (1978) and Richard Lester's SUPERMAN II (1980). Then Dave joins Evan and Megan for BRICK, a German thriller about a mysterious brick wall that appears in the night and strands a grieving young couple inside their apartment building, where they're eventually joined by Airbnbers, an old, his grandaughter, and a conspiracy theorist. There are a lot of tropes (and charitably, homages) and we break them all down. Over on Patreon, we watched the 1992 Val Kilmer film THUNDERHEART.
Our month long look at Superman on screen continues. After the failure of Superman IV: Quest for Peace, Warner Brothers worked with half of Hollywood trying to reboot the franchise throughout the 90s and early 00s. Finally, they turned to X-Men director Bryan Singer, resulting in 2006's Superman Returns. Superman Returns introduced the world to Brandon Routh, another newcomer taking on the role of Clark Kent. Pitched as an “homage sequel” to Superman and Superman II, the film begins with Superman returning to Earth after a 5-year long search for any remnant of Krypton. Unfortunately for him, Lex Luthor is cooking up a new evil plan. Even worse? Lois Lane is engaged to someone else! Singer's film was both criticized and praised for an approach that gave greater focus to the romantic relationship between Superman & Lois as opposed to frequent action sequences. Our hosts break down whether or not this approach works, discuss Routh's performance, and consider this film's place in the superhero canon. Plus, our new social media manager Chelsie Padilla joins at the end of the show to share her thoughts on her favorite Superman film. Plus, our quick thoughts on F1, Elio, and Karate Kid: Legends! Who's your favorite Superman actor? Let us know at cinemaontappodcast@gmail.com!

THIS MOVIE IS OUR KRYPTONITE. For many years after Superman IV, WB had struggled to get a new take on the Man of Steel off the ground. From Tim Burton's Superman Lives to J.J. Abrams' Superman: Flyby, nothing seemed to stick. It was only at the tail-end of the latter's existence that they decided to make a "direct" sequel to Superman II, with everyone recast and still taking place in modern day. What resulted was a movie that felt like it was written with melatonin for ink. Somebody save us. Come join Brian and Alec as they wrap up the Supermanathon with the movie that very may well have caused the public to be bored with the big blue boy scout -- SUPERMAN RETURNS!
This week in honor of James Gunn's new Superman movie coming out we decided to go back to the 80s and review Superman II! We needed help covering this iconic super hero movie so we brought back Antonio of the Cultworthy podcast to break down this movie. What will we think of this movie? Tune in to find out as we SHOOT THE FLICK!!!To follow everything Antonio does please check out his website at:https://thecultworthy.com/

DC Comics's Superman franchise, based on the character of the same name created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in June 1938, has seen the release of various films since its inception.[1]The character debuted in cinemas in a series of animated shorts beginning in 1941 and was the protagonist of two movie serials in 1948 and 1950. An independent studio, Lippert Pictures, released the first Superman feature film, Superman and the Mole Men, starring George Reeves, in 1951. In 1973, the film rights to the Superman character were purchased by Ilya Salkind, Alexander Salkind, and Pierre Spengler. After multiple scripts and several years in development, Richard Donner was hired as director, and he shot two films, Superman (1978) (marketed as Superman: The Movie), and Superman II (1980), at the same time, both starring Christopher ReeveHosted by Ausha.

With the action and fight choreography being as fun as they are, couldn't we have gotten more of that and less of Morgan Freeman giving that lecture?

Why does the movie take so long to get to New York City? What in the hell were they thinking with the multiple crotch grab “gags”? Who packs a sexy bathing suit for a hike through the bush? Does the script confirm that Mick has magic powers? Wouldn't someone try to kill Mick after he wastes all that coke at the party? And what in the WORLD are we doing being barefoot in the subway at the end?! PLUS: Be on the lookout for the American Crocodile Dundee, Alligator Johnson! Crocodile Dundee stars Paul Hogan, Linda Kozlowski, John Mellon, David Gulpilil, Steve Rackman, Mark Blum, Michael Lombard, and Reginald VelJohnson as Gus; directed by Peter Faiman.

Celluloid Heroes: Episode 6Film: Superman/Superman IIWhen is a movie two movies in one? When it's the one-two punch of Richard Donner's 1978 Superman and Richard Donner's and Richard Lester's 1981 Superman II. Confused? Thankfully host Brad Abraham is here to explain the complicated backstory behind these two cinema classics, his experiences seeing both in the theater in two very different cities, and how a generation of moviegoers would come to believe a man could flyFollow Celluloid Heroes on INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/TheCelluloidHeroesPodFollow Brad Abraham at www.bradabraham.comShare your thoughts with us!

“There're piles of skulls, which of course I appreciate” - Steve on the set design On this week's episode, Totally Cool Awesome 80s Month and the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza pay tribute to the late, great Val Kilmer with a convo about the super-fun Ron Howard fantasy flick, Willow! How amazing are Warwick and Val together on screen? Isn't it refreshing that Davis was just allowed to put a shirt on and be this character, without getting covered in prosthetics or whatever else? Wouldn't things have been just fine in this movie without the Brownies flying around? And how amazing is that two-headed Siskel & Ebert monster? PLUS: Queen Bavmorda accidentally touches The Ooze and becomes Super Bavmorda (and is also played by Kevin Nash)! Willow stars Warwick Davis, Val Kilmer, Joanne Whalley, Jean Marsh, Patricia Hayes, Billy Barty, Mark Northover, Pat Roach, David Sternberg, Phil Fondacaro, Tony Cox, Kevin Pollak, Rick Overton, and Gavan O'Herlihy as Airk; directed by Ron Howard.

This week, Shat the Movies finally kneels before Zod—and listener Chris Lloyd—by reviewing Superman II (1980), the sequel that gave us Terrence Stamp's immortal sneer, Margot Kidder's bathrobe thirst, and Christopher Reeve's blue-eyed beefcake perfection. This episode dives headfirst into the Donner vs. Lester debate, asks how much ejaculate the Fortress of Solitude can handle, and questions Lois Lane's true intentions once Clark Kent drops the glasses—and the powers. Gene and Big D examine everything from Superman's bizarre morality and dubious revenge tactics to the wildly impractical Phantom Zone prison system. They also debate if memory-wiping kisses and cellophane logos deserve a place in superhero canon and why Perry White's newsroom features a threatening photo of Bill Cosby. Whether you're team “Mormon Dad Superman” or “Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex,” this episode delivers laughs, awkward truths, and more than a few inappropriate questions about Kryptonian sex. Plot Summary After banishing Kryptonian rebels General Zod, Ursa, and Non to the Phantom Zone, Superman continues his life as Clark Kent—until a hydrogen bomb explosion in space releases the trio. Landing on Earth, they gain Superman's powers from the yellow sun and quickly set their sights on global domination. Meanwhile, Lois Lane grows suspicious of Clark's identity, prompting him to reveal his secret and sacrifice his powers to be with her. But when Zod and his cronies begin wreaking havoc—and Lex Luthor joins their side—Superman must reclaim his abilities and protect humanity. The final showdown brings the villains to the Fortress of Solitude, where Superman uses brains over brawn to save the world, while also redefining the meaning of romantic boundaries with a memory-erasing kiss.

“He's the walking dead!” - Eric on contemporary Sly's look On this week's episode, the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza launches into month two by celebrating the Totally Cool Awesome 80s! First up, we're talking about the stupidly-titled Rambo: First Blood Part II! How funny is it that this movie pulls a complete 180 on the philosophy of the first film? How great is Sly's hair in this one? Couldn't they have had a few more action scenes with Martin Kove? How wild is it that Predator completely ripped off the Rambo covered in mud bit? And why didn't Murdock get a rockin' death in this? PLUS: Fellow veterans, Bebop and Rocksteady, meet John Rambo! Rambo: First Blood Part II stars Sylvester Stallone, Richard Crenna, Charles Napier, Steven Berkoff, Julia Nickson, George Cheung, and Martin Kove as Ericson; directed by George P. Cosmatos.

Abrams On this week's episode, we welcome Ben Worcester onto the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza to chat about the super-fun action sequel, Mission: Impossible III!
