0206: This Is a Picture of Superman

It’s time to set the record straight about how actual Zack Snyder fans are reacting to James Gunn’s Superman, while praising some new marketing from DC Studios and my ultimate hope on how the new movie can bring the Snyder and Anti-Snyder cults to their knees.

FLITE ALERT 0006: Superman and Ironheart Trailers

My thoughts on the first full trailer for Superman and how it could strike an ironic blow for rational DC fans everywhere, and how the Ironheart trailer reminds me of another recent Disney+ series that also deserved more than it got.
