The movie, directed by James Gunn, stars David Corenswet as Superman. The discussion includes a look at box office results and factors contributing to them, criticism of art and the various things we like and dislike about the film. Though it isn't a particularly sciencey topic, we can't help but apply our own brand of critical thinking to some aspects of the film. The film is currently in theatres worldwide and available to purchase digitally. It's recommended that you watch it before listening to this episode as there are plenty of spoilers, if you care about that kind of thing. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-reality-check-509868/episodes/trc-714-superman-movie-discussion/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-reality-check-509868/trc-714-superman-movie-discussion.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
