In times of fear, people crave strongmen.
James Gunn gives us something braver: a good man.

Sick of gods, tyrants, and traumatized billionaires? So are we!
But Superman (2025) isn't a power fantasy; it's about sincerity.

One of the reasons I really enjoyed this movie is that I’ve never seen my dog so singularly represented on screen haha. I love her but she is so naughty, just like Krypto haha

Pouring one out for the guy who was on my favorite movie poster in college, which of course featured this quote.
a man in a suit and tie says " are you gonna bark all day "

I don’t remember it being a Binge Movies takeover, but I do remember Jason having strong opinions about X. He definitely let me talk in this episode and I dare say I had him doubled over in laughter at least a couple of times
