1:37:11

A polarizing Superman film that tries to be a Donner entry and works for some and not as well for others! We have our usual 15-20 minute preamble where we talk Jurassic World, Welcome to Derry and Harry Dresden but then we go all in on the 2006 entry into the Superman franchise! #superman #supermanreturns #dc #dccomics…

FORMERLY 2 Mediocre White Dudes on Film, we are NOW 2 Middle Aged Geeks on Film! Nothing else has changed. The same passion. The same fire. The same (mostly) positivity. The same banter.

Ooooh boy. This is a nightmare. But not in a good way. We don't like trashing films...but sometimes they deserve it. We do our best to be entertaining..unlike this film. #anightmareonelmstreet #jackieearlehaley #rooneymara #freddykruegerBy PLD

What an interesting film. Sat between two of the more definitive entries to in the franchise, this one takes some wild swings for a Part II. Some work, and some don't, but it's definitely a fun one to talk about! #anightmareonelmstreeet2 #nightmareonelmst #robertenglund #freddykruegerBy PLD
