The Tyler Parker shoutout is so good for my street cred.

Thanks, man. Still gonna do some Thunder podcasting and some Thunder reading every word you write.

Imagine Zach Snyder's The Rocketeer, where the sun never shines and he's just burning people's faces off with the jetpack.

Also, Clark Kent’s journalistic ethics? Questionable.

I had forgotten until I watched it again that they dubbed Reeve’s voice with a younger actor for teenage Clark.

They say the extended Batman v Superman is better too, but I just can’t. I certainly never thought the problem with that movie was that there wasn’t enough of it.

I’m genuinely optimistic about the new one (though I’m hit-and-miss with James Gunn). I just want a refreshed memory on the old ones to carry me into it.

Superman Returns is… really not that bad? I remember thinking it was way worse. I’m stopping the rewatch at Man of Steel, which is every bit the chore I remember but not the impossible slog that Batman v Superman is for me.

You have to view the original through the lens of its time. It’s pretty corny, but I have real affection for it. Superman II isn’t as good as I remember. It’s a wonder that III — a bad Richard Pryor movie that Superman is in — got made. IV is such a dull disaster that it’s not even fun to laugh at.

I drove in from Guthrie this morning and saw a handful of cars with Thunder flags. Looked like everybody who lives in Mesta Park was walking toward the parade route. Elemental has a line wrapping around to the door.

It looks like they’re closing during.
