from Movie Week in Review
Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode! Mike and Dan dive into Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, discussing Christopher Reeve's final Superman outing and its notorious reputation as one of the worst comic book movies ever made. The episode covers the film's bloated plot involving Superman's quest to eliminate nuclear weapons, Lex Luthor's creation of Nuclear Man, and the bizarre subplots that derail the story. They explore why Gene Hackman returned for the role, the film's production troubles, and why Dan—watching it for the first time as an adult—found it far more painful than Superman III, while Mike defends it as a guilty pleasure from his childhood.
