Episode 292 – James Gunn’s Superman: Hope, Hype & Heroic Uncertainty
It’s a bird… it’s a plane… it’s another Analysis Podcast deep dive! In Episode 292, we suit up and fly headfirst into James Gunn’s bold new take on Superman. With a new Clark Kent, a stacked ensemble cast, and a shifting DCEU landscape, there’s plenty to dissect—and even more to speculate on.
Bob, and Rob explore:
How David Corenswet stacks up in the cape
The Superman vs. The Authority tone shift
Can Gunn really balance heart, heroism, and humor—or are we just getting Guardians in a cape?
The risks of reboot fatigue in a world still haunted by the Snyderverse
Whether this film is truly hopeful… or just another IP puzzle piece
Plus, we get into the visual tone, the costume decisions, and whether the DCEU can actually be saved (or if we should all just go back to rewatching Man of Steel).
Is Gunn’s Superman going to soar—or crash under the weight of expectations?
