Episode Synopsis
Man of Steel was the first attempt at a reboot of Superman and was the first film of the now defunct DC Extended Universe/Snyderverse (DCEU) and it has been the subject of a lot of criticism from movie fans, DC fans, superhero movie fans and Superman fans on both sides and even if you're on either side, this is an interesting film to talk about and defend or hate. In this video, Epictastic Joshua’s Joshua Drake Randall gives you all his thoughts on the 2013 DC superhero film and why despite the issues that are there, he can still enjoy this film for what it is. #ManofSteel #Superman2025 #TheRoadtoSuperman2025 #ZackSnyder #HenryCavill #AmyAdams #MichaelShannon#KevinCostner #DianeLane #LaurenceFishburne #AntjeTraue #AyeletZurer #ChristopherMeloni #RussellCrowe*CHAPTERS*0:00 - cold opening/intro and review starts 1:20 - plot synopsis 1:34 - production of Man of Steel 3:00 - my first experiences/rewatch prep5:02 - The Dark (negatives)11:53 - The mixed 14:12 - The Light (positives)23:31 - overall thoughts/grade 24:52 - my thoughts on BVS and Justice League (both cuts)28:22 - conclusion/outroSypnosisWith the imminent destruction of Krypton, their home planet, Jor-El (Russell Crowe) and his wife seek to preserve their race by sending their infant son to Earth.
