Yeah I mean the title pretty much says it.
There's been a lot of talk, speculation, and controversy about the upcoming Superman film. Not only does this movie need to relaunch the Superman franchise, but it also needs to relaunch DC, and, maybe, superhero movies in general. Who am I to say?
But as this movie inevitably grapples with the legacy of Superman, DC, Man of Steel, Henry Cavill, Christopher Reeve, James Gunn, Zack Snyder, and 100 other things, I hope it manages to do something new, original, complex, and hopeful. It looks like Gunn is going to try to hit a bit of everything, which may be good and may be bad. We don't know what's gonna happen yet. But in this video essay, I try to explore what I hope MIGHT happen.
