Listen "Batman By The Numbers: Every Superman Movie RANKED"
Episode Synopsis
There’s arguably no superhero in existence that has been reimagined, redefined, or reinterpreted more than Batman. No matter how many times he’s been rebooted, audiences are always willing to come back to Gotham City’s greatest defender. With so much Bat content out there, there’s plenty to dissect, analyze, and of course, rank! This podcast is dedicated to a surgical evaluation of Batman’s history, with a focus on ranking several topics in the world of Batman, among other classic Bat themes and characters.Join hosts Daniel Cohen, Pop Break’s former Film Editor, and Kris Ingersoll, co-host of the Media/Lit podcast, as they bring on several guests every month to share their passion for the one and only Dark Knight. From Adam West to Robert Pattinson, no bat stone will be left unturned. Bottom-line: If you’re a Batman fan, this is required listening.We’re one month away from a new Superman film, and the first theatrical release of the new DC Universe. Before a new Superman graces the screen though, it’s time once and for all we honor what came before, and rank every single theatrically released Superman film!We continue our yearlong theme of World’s Finest by going back all the way to 1978 with the iconic first Christopher Reeve Superman movie directed by Richard Donner, all the way to 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and everything in between. In this monster episode, we rank seven Superman films, which include (in chronological order); Superman. Superman II. Superman III. Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. Superman Returns. Man of Steel. And Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. With this being such a big episode, we had to bring in a massive panel of returning guests, starting of course with the podcasting director of the Pop Break, Alex Marcus. Also joining us, it’s Alex’s cohost on the new It’s Tom-plicated Podcast, and he was a guest on the epic Christopher Nolan movie rankings episode, Manish Mathur.Also making their returns, he was on our recent Batman Allies Draft episode, it’s pop break contributor, Ben Murchison. And cohost of the flagship podcast of the Pop Break, the Socially Distanced Podcast, and the Anime X Pop podcast, it’s Amanda Rivas.These six temporary Kryptonians come together to break down everything you could possibly want analyzed in a Superman movie. It is a true nostalgic history lesson of all these movies. We cover it all; the good, the bad, and the Nuclear Man.For Superman fans, this is a perfect precursor to next month’s Superman movie!
