Listen "Episode #134 – Superman III (1983)"
Episode Synopsis
On episode #134 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, the four superhero sidekicks that is Bryan, Dan, Chelsea, and Preston, voluntarily subject themselves to Superman III (1983), the cinematic equivalent of doing whippets in a RadioShack parking lot.
This is the movie where Christopher Reeve, once again donning the cape, finds himself paired with Richard Pryor. Arguably the funniest stand-up comedian of all time and, according to Warner Bros. executives in 1982, also the perfect person to anchor a family-friendly superhero sequel. The result? A film so spectacularly unhinged it feels less like a continuation of the Superman franchise and more like someone dared the writers to lose a bar bet.
