Andrew & Tara continue their SUPERMAN MARATHON in preparation for James Gunn's Superman as they hunker in for their Superman IV: The Quest for Peace Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!!

Join Andrew Gordon & Tara Erickson as they revisit Sidney J. Furie’s ambitious 1987 capstone to the Superman saga, Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. In a bid to rid the world of nuclear weapons, Superman (Christopher Reeve, Superman II, Somewhere in Time) addresses the United Nations—only to have his ideals mocked by Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman, The French Connection, Unforgiven), who escapes prison with his bumbling brother Lenny (Jon Cryer, Pretty in Pink, Two and a Half Men) and uses a strand of Superman’s hair to create the unstoppable Nuclear Man (Mark Pillow). As nuclear arsenals surge and disaster looms, Superman must face his dark clone in a showdown of planetary stakes.

Andrew & Tara break down every iconic moment—from the unforgettable scene where Superman gathers and hurls nuclear warheads into the sun, to the epic beachside duel with Nuclear Man on a wind-swept shoreline. Margot Kidder (Lois Lane, The Amityville Horror, Black Christmas) brings sparkle to every newsroom scene at the Daily Planet, joined by Jackie Cooper as Perry White (the world-weary editor from Superman, The People vs. Noah Drake) and Marc McClure as Jimmy Olsen (the ever-optimistic photographer of Superman II, Smallville). Don’t miss Superman’s daring roller-skate rescue of Lois, the UN nuclear debate, and the film’s earnest message about hope and global unity.
