Summary: The Super(man) episode is our followup to the previous Star Wars centric episode. We had a great time with the Star Wars episode and hope that we ruffled a few feathers with it. We even talk about the movie again, but that isn't the entire focus of our show. We talk about Superman. We also mention Batman a bit, but don't get your hopes up. What's Going On Not much is going on that was a huge change from previous weeks. Rhett hasn't been getting through Tomb Raider. He's been trying to finish Fallout 4. He's finally progressed to the point that there's nothing else to do but the main story quest. Jason has been keeping busy with Christmas plans. There's been some Destiny playing, but not enough. He did come up with tonight's topic because of some recent reading though. There was also the snafu with the audio for the last show. He's been working on fixing that. Superman: The Movie Fails Jason recently read an article about Superman, specifically the Superman movies. Have you ever wondered what happened to Superman after the fourth movie. Well, we have some answers for you. There have been almost 15 separate attempts at creating a new Superman movie between the bomb that was Superman IV: The Search for Peace and Superman Returns. The stories get really wild from changing his powers, to rewriting his entire backstory, to giving him angst over his alien heritage. He was even slated to fight a giant spider in one iteration. In the same story that would have seen Superman fight a giant spider, Brainiac would have fought angry polar bears guarding the Fortress of Solitude. The ridiculousness knows no bounds. Some of the stories were so bad it's amazing that the stench hasn't lingered. However, Superman was able to make a comeback. Legendary Battle of the Classic Video Game Characters We decided to extend the deadline on the Earthworm Jim/Sam and Max match up. We have been posting our match ups on Comic Vine and getting some good responses. However, this time there was only one response and it was for clarification. So, clarification was provided. No, Max doesn't have his psychic powers. So, who will win?
