Season 2, Episode 1 - Superman: Man of Tomorrow (A Year of Animation Part 1‪)‬ Parking Lot Critiques

    • Cinema: recensioni

Six Pack and a Song's Parking Lot Critiques returns, kicking off 2021 with a new season themed entirely around animation. For the first entry in "A Year of Animation," Jeffrey and Andy discuss Chris Palmer's 2020 film Superman: Man of Tomorrow. The hosts situate this latest Superman film in the character's long history of "origin stories," comparing and contrasting it with previous incarnations of the characters. They also discuss many other aspects of the film, including its unique character dynamics and its bold and poignant anti-xenophobic sentiments, as well as the question of whether or not it is overly presumptuous for Clark Kent to put cinnamon in everybody's coffee (because, he says, it "really wakes it up") while working as an intern at the Daily Planet.
