A Safe Space for People Who Didn’t Like Superman.
DISCLAIMERS: 1. I have no idea what I'm talking about to a large degree. 2. If you love this movie and/or the comic books I'm delighted for you, save yourself and absolutely do not listen to this. 3. I'm simply an ignorant superhero-movie-goer trying to make sense of why everyone is loving Superman. PLUS, I rewatched Jaws, Avengers Doomsday on-set gossip, and wonder WHO could play Indiana Jones today?
