Man, I miss this era of Kevin Smith's career. New podcasts every day, cool interviews... now it's just boring Discord shows with Bernardin and him running his theater.

I don’t know if this is a wrong way to put it, but he seemed like he overthought a lot less around this time. He didn’t give so much of a fuck about what trolls on the internet said. Back then, he was this positive optimistic, lovable guy that smoked weed and loved to talk about comic book pop culture with his friends and nerd out in his interviews. I miss so damn badly when he would just talk about Batman for an entire podcast. I don’t know what the hell happened. He had his heart attack and I feel like he was never the same afterwards. So sad to watch happen…

@@skylerb97 never said that the heart attack was literally what caused him to stop talking about Batman. I said he had his heart attack and was truly never the same afterwards. Before the heart attack, I don’t really give a f**k if it was more or less about Batman semantically, but it was objectively comic book/superhero universe centric. That stopped after the heart attack.

Yes Kevin!!!!! YES!!! Thank you for finally! Including Superman's Canadian heritage. Nobody else mentions it. They always leave out the fact that Joe Schuster was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, And didn't move to the US until his teens.

I do like how they address Superman being this super dangerous, out of control god who trashed half of Metropolis in BvS. From Bruce Wayne’s point of view he had every reason to hate and not trust him.

Eh, it's not a storyline I cared for. If I was Zach Snyder, I would have made more of an attempt to show Superman trying to save people in MOS.

I actually rewatched this movie last night and was less impressed with it than when I saw it in theaters. To me, it doesn’t FEEL like a Superman movie. More like a bio-mechanical laden space opera/sci-fi movie with Superman thrown in. Also, the non-linear storytelling felt kind of jarring and unnecessary to me. I get that they were going for something different, and I don’t hate the movie. I guess it’s just really for me.🤷♂️

Man of Steel, was made and came in, A very unique and weird time. You can start all the way back in 78 with the Christopher Reeves Superman. After that we got Smallville, which would show us Clark Kent becoming Superman. Then, in 2011 Smallville ended and to the masses, Clark had grown up and just become Superman. So in this post 9/11 world, What would reality be like if Superman showed up??? That is what Man of Steel gave us. In a world that is cynical, And has a entire society suffering from PTSD, What would it be like if Superman joined the world today??? Man of Steel explored that perfectly. But now, People are ready to dream again. When we see the new photos from James Gunn's Superman, It really invokes a sense of Christopher Reeve, humility, And the ability to dream once again. Man of Steel was perfect for the world that it was set in. Superman (2025) I'm sure will do the same. To me personally, James Gunn or Zack Snyder is not one is better than the other. It's like apples and pears. Yes, they are both fruit, That grows on trees, Is sweet and crunchy.... But definitely not the same thing.

I dont remember the part where he was told by Zod to activate the beacon.... oh that's right he just did it by accident total HUMAN mistake. I don't care if people like Man of Steel or not for me it's one of my favorite movies but when you fall back on the same old critiques that show that you don't really pay attention to the movie it gets old after a while. I'm referring to this Ralph dude that's talking with Kevin. Kevin at least understands what they're going for even if he has critiques. Also if the Man of Steel Superman suit wants to make you slit your wrist that says more about you than it does the film. My bad if I come across harsh but the hate for this movie has always confused the s*** out of me and also has flat-out pissed me off especially when people just rattle off b*******.
@InterdimensionalCowlick8 ай бұрын
Maybe the reason you hear "the same old critiques" is because a great many people noticed the same problems. I love Kevin but if its a superhero movie and especially if it throws a lesser known character on the screen for a moment, he's going to gush over it.

Garmin may as well be crying about why we moved on from Batman ‘66… Everyone (except for old heads that don’t want change) want real world scenarios and not corny/campy colorful bull crap. Man of steel was the best Superman movie. It went downhill from there when they had to re-introduce humor/camp to try and mimic marvel. Garman just sounds complainy and outdated.
