Pop Culture Pastor

Ep 187: Be Kind Rewind (Superman the Movie)


Listen Later

In this episode of Pop Culture Pastor, we’re diving into all things Superman as the highly anticipated new movie hits theaters! Cody, our resident DC superfan, is practically bursting with excitement—he's been on the Superman train since day one. We discuss the early reviews, the highs, the lows, and what makes this reboot so critical for the future of the DC universe. Will it be James Gunn’s magnum opus, or is it another Man of Steel misfire?

We also take a trip back to 1978 for a Be Kind Rewind on the original Superman film. What holds up? What doesn’t? Is Gene Hackman’s Lex Luthor iconic or just campy fun? We dissect the film’s impact, the legacy of Christopher Reeve, and how it paved the way for all superhero movies that followed. Plus, we talk about the absurdity of Superman reversing time by spinning the Earth backward, and yes, we even get into some Muppetized casting decisions!

Whether you’re a die-hard DC fan like Cody, a casual moviegoer, or just here for the laughs, this episode is packed with insights, humor, and a whole lot of love for Superman. Don't miss it—because we may just convince you to watch a man of steel again.
