I wrote a post a few months back saying that a really positive and pro-America Superman film could be a good thing for American culture. I said it could happen as a part of the “Trump Effect.” A lot of people were saying that no, I was stupid, it was going to be woke as all heck.

Well, the film has been released.

Statistically, most of you didn’t see it, and probably are not really very excited to. It didn’t perform poorly over the weekend, but it certainly was not a blockbuster, and not what Warner Brothers was looking for. That said, after the weekend box office (which was below projections with the film on the path to break even), WB head David Zaslav said this new DC Comics “universe” of films will go ahead and he was happy with the box office.

For some reason, before the release of the film, director James Gunn decided to attack his own film release by announcing that Superman is “an immigrant story.” This caused many people to believe the film was woke, and refuse again to pay $15 for a moral lecture.

If this film was actually woke, it still wouldn’t have made sense for him to say that, but it really isn’t woke. The wokest thing about the film is that they cast a Mexican who looks like a literal satanic ape as the Engineer.

In principle, I am not even against having a Mexican and a black. These big blockbuster CGI fest children’s films are intended for wide audiences and I think there might be some data-backed truth to the fact that people from these races will be more likely to see a film if they feel they are “represented.” (Although the thicc Mexican bitch who played Hawkgirl seems like enough Latina representation?) This was the original idea of having a black character in films. In old slasher films, blacks actually loved the trope that “the black guy always gets killed first” (maybe they related to it, I don’t know, but they certainly always went to see these films and cheered when the black died first). I don’t expect these films to be full-Nazi, or whatever. So a bit of diversity in the casting, if it’s not an overload, isn’t “woke,” as this has always been a thing. I do think it is woke to pick a bitch with that face.

But everything else was fine. The black guy was fine. Literally the only political thing in the film at all was a surprisingly heavy-handed Palestine analogy with the Boravia plot line. The Jews are freaking out about that. I guess woke people do support Palestine, but Israel is so despised by the right, that doesn’t really count. And though Gunn made it way obvious what he was talking about, it wasn’t a huge part of the story. Though getting the actor who looks the most like David Ben-Gurion to play the leader of the racist oppression nation was funny.

That was sort of anti-woke, antisemitic casting, frankly. It made up for the Engineer being purposefully ugly.

So, I don’t know why Gunn decided to sabotage the film this way. It’s a head-scratcher. He can’t possibly have imagined that making the film seem “woke” before the release would be good for it. Maybe it was just an offhanded comment he made, possibly while drunk and on pills. I am sure Gunn’s personal politics are left, but he also seems like he would be willing to do a film that slightly signals to MAGA if it would secure him more money. Also, Zaslav, you’d think, would go along with doing some jingoistic Americanism in the film in the name of getting Americans to sign up and die for wars for his homeland. (Though he sort of did the opposite of that, actually, by allowing Gunn to put the Palestine thing in there, but this sort of indicates he just doesn’t care at all.)

They asked poor Nathan Fillion about the “immigrant” thing, and he said “c’mon, guys. It’s just a movie.” This is exactly what it is: it’s just a movie. (Unless you’re a Jew who doesn’t think anyone should be able to say genociding Arabs is wrong, in which case it is like another Holocaust all over again.)

If you would have thrown in some dogwhistles, shown some more American flags (I was excited by the one in the trailer), and had someone say “truth, justice, and the American Way,” the film could have been a blockbuster despite its mediocre quality.

And that is how I would rate the quality: it is mediocre.

Most of the critiques of the film are right. People are posting that clip of Trey Parker explaining if your story is just a bunch of “and then this happens” scenes strung together, it’s not a good story. That is factually true. That being said, it’s difficult for me, as a “science of literature” expert, to see how you could have shoved that many characters into the film and then stuck to any sort of meaningful storytelling format. Yes, there are good novels with a lot of characters, but these novels would make 10- and 20-hour movies (as was done with the Game of Thrones books). To shove as many characters as were in Superman into a movie and not just have it be a series of events would probably be impossible. The literature on the structure of stories is clear that the characters and plot are inseparable. No one has ever said “I liked the plot, I just didn’t like the characters,” though with Superman, you could say the opposite thing. I did like most of the characters. Superman was my favorite character, however, and he ends up getting pushed out of his own movie by a barrage of different characters, some of whom might be interesting in their own right, but there just isn’t enough time in a film’s runtime to find out.

I think this was the only mandate from Zaslav: you have to include a bunch of different characters we can use for our “universe.” Very stupid thinking. But I don’t think this means James Gunn is a bad writer. Unless it was his idea to have this many characters, which I doubt, then you can’t blame him for not being able to formulate a properly flowing cause-and-effect plot around this directive. It could only really be a series of strung together “oh here’s this person who has this thing going on, that’s fun, right?” scenes.

Frank Grillo as Rick Flag, Fillion as Guy Gardner, and others to various extents, were potentially interesting characters. The film simply didn’t have room for all of them.

In terms of watching the film as a comic book fan, there was nothing offensive. Well, there is one very offensive thing that I expected to get revealed as a Lex Luthor scheme by the end, but it never was, and that was really more confusing than offensive, because I just assumed that it would be revealed it was a hoax. (And maybe it will be later on in the series, check the spoiler at the bottom of this page. I guess I liked Superman enough to think some people will want to go and watch it and have fun and not have it spoiled, so I’ll keep it down there for the majority who do not care.)

Along with liking the characters, I liked the general tone, which drew on Silver Age themes that Gunn has said he came across through Grant Morrison’s All-Star Superman. It’s a very silly and comic-booky tone, which you have to have if you are doing literally any DC comics heroes other than literal Batman. (Yes, if you “nerd out,” there are other DC heroes you can do dark and “realist” takes on, but it works with none of the main Justice League characters. If you want to “nerd out” right this very moment, go look at the current “dark” line of DC comics, the “Absolute” series, and tell me why Absolute Batman is awesome and the others are unbearable.)

DC should have looked at Disney’s success with Marvel’s “universe” and said they were going to go in the opposite direction, and be more comic booky and silly-fun than Marvel. Instead, they let Zack Snyder make all of those nightmarish films and lost I think multiple billions of dollars. I’m sure part of the pitch from Gunn was exactly this: “let’s go in the other direction and just have fun,” and to a not totally insignificant extent, Superman succeeds with this.

It’s almost like there is just a lot of bad market research going on here. Like, as if a bunch of marketing research people are literal criminal fraudsters. Along with the silliness of Gunn saying that immigrant thing before the release of the film, the film was also sabotaged by the trailers, which made Superman look weak and whiny. Releasing the scene with Clark and Lois arguing was really dumb, as in context, you don’t really think much about that. Clark/Superman as a character is totally fine and I liked almost everything about the portrayal. Even the suit that everyone complained about before release looks great.

But yeah, not a great film, not a film I would really recommend anyone watch, and definitely not the “Trump Effect” pro-America film I was hoping for. I don’t know, maybe Warner has marketing research geniuses who did the math and realized the Trump Effect would be mostly gone by mid-July. My original thinking was that if they could have gotten Trump to endorse it as “a great pro-America film,” it would have been a big deal, and I still think it would have been a better strategy, but it wouldn’t carry the weight it would have in April. Faster than I ever could have imagined, the MAGA Spring has given birth to a “Wait, What Did He Just Say? What the Hell is Going on Here?” Summer.

But hey, I don’t want to talk about that in this article, man. I don’t really want to talk about that at all anymore, dude. I just want to do “woke or not?” pop culture reviews, bro.

Just relax.

None of it even matters anyway.

Oh, and I almost forgot: Lois breaks up with Clark when he’s getting attacked by the media then decides she’s in love with him after the media decides he’s good. Literally, there is nothing else driving her relationship decisions other than Superman’s social status. The sort of garbled non-plot might make it not obvious, but if you watch it, you can literally see she does not have any interactions with Superman between giving him a cold “now you’re in the friend zone” hug and jumping all over him telling him she loves him. No interactions. Her decision was completely based on media reports of the man’s social status.

I think what probably happened was that in the frenzy of reshoots and recuts, trying to turn this garbled mess of mostly disconnected things into a coherent whole, they didn’t realize they got a bit too real with how women actually think about men. It could also have been on purpose. Either way, it was very funny to me. And literally true.

When Mel Gibson got condemned as evil by the media for saying those things about the Jews, when he was literally at the lowest point in his life, his wife of many decades with whom he had seven children decided to do the brave thing and file for divorce. I guarantee if there ever comes a day when the media decides “it turns out Mel is the good guy after all,” that ex-wife is going to start calling him and talking “oh, I was just thinking about you, we had so many good times together and a part of me misses it.”

Women are utterly ridiculous, actually buffoonish in nature, and I always love when that is pointed out.

Spoiler Thing:

The thing I expected to be a Lex plot was the video that Superman’s birth parents sent him from Krypton, where they told him to conquer Earth and have a harem of women to produce the maximum number of children with Kryptonian blood to rule as his heirs. That is very offensive if it is an in-universe thing that’s real. The thing is, Supergirl is in this universe, and if she’s Kara, which I assume she is, she was also sent to Earth to escape Krypton’s destruction, and if you were planning on conquering a planet, and you specified how to do so by using the “Spanish dudes in Mexico” method, you would not send a female with a vagina and would instead send two males with penises.

They could say that Kara was sent to be Superman’s pureblooded Kryptonian wife to create a royal line to lead the half-breed earthlings (which was the only reason Spain ever sent women to Mexico), but in this case, they wouldn’t have sent his first cousin, which Kara is, and I’m pretty sure it says “cousin” in the film.

Anyway, it never crossed my mind that this was anything other than another Lex trick, so it didn’t bother me until I’d finished the film and realized it was never resolved. Anyway, if this does turn into a successful “universe,” which seems unlikely because I just don’t think this “blockbuster film that has to make a billion dollars to be profitable” model was ever sustainable (but who knows), they will just retcon that even if it was originally intended by Gunn to be canon. Because no one likes this “Superman’s parents were evil” thing. Superman has been around nearly 100 years, they’ve done every possible storyline with him, including various versions of “evil Superman,” but the only case I know of where Superman was sent to earth to set up a one-man breeding farm and conquer the planet is in Invincible, which is not a Superman book, even whilst Omega Man is obviously a Superman parody. The Invincible cartoon is really popular now (not for no reason, I’d argue), so maybe someone thought it was a good idea to weave that in? That doesn’t make any sense, but nothing about it makes sense. Even on a basic level of the story itself, a people whose planet is being destroyed and who can only send one child to another planet (later two, with Kara) would not be thinking “we command you to conquer this planet in our name.” The reason it works in Invincible is that Omega Man lies about being the last of his race and he’s actually a representative of an alien empire that is planning to conquer Earth.

Although I am on the “it’s definitely mostly nature” side of the nature vs. nurture debate, I am also sympathetic to “you’re not required to be like your parents” stories, which can be real human stories. But this is not the place for that, James Gunn. Literally no one wants “Superman was supposed to be evil but he overcame it,” except in Invincible, where it is a completely different thing and “Superman” actually does do a bunch of evil things before reflecting on whether or not he wants to be like his parents.

    Russians do a good dub-job. Halfway through I was seriously convinced it was a Russian movie from the get-go.

  6. I’ll probably end up seeing it, or F1, this weekend. Perhaps take mom. As far as keying on minority casting its important to be inclusive in a multicultural society. I’m unsure of Lee Kuan Yew’s views on entertainment exclusiveness but if they’re not shoe-horned into roles or settings where they’re obviously inappropriate, it’s a good idea.

    Surrendering to division by race, gender, religion even, is a mug’s game; there’s one division that matters and that’s the 97% vs the 3% and their attending lackeys. Besides, Whites will be a minority in the US within 20 years; perhaps they can remake Roots with an all White cast? Zulu Dawn too?

    I’d pay to see that.

    Why did you miss Jews out in your above statement?

    CONSANGUINITY AMONG JEWS:
    By: Cyrus Adler, Joseph Jacobs

    Owing to their dispersion among populations professing creed different from their own, Jews have married near relatives more frequently than the rest of the world. The marriage of first cousins and even of uncle and niece is quite legal and usual among them (see Marriage).
    The limitations on the marriage of those of priestly descent would tend to limit the choice of Cohens to those nearly related to them.The tendency seems to have begun early, since Abraham is represented as having sought a wife for Isaac in his mother’s family.
    In the Middle Ages it is difficult to ascertain how far the Jews tended to marry within their own families; but the Ghirondi family, to which Naḥmanides, Gersonides (who married his first cousin), and Simon Duran belonged, appeared to have married relatives for several generations (Steinschneider, “Cat. Bodl.” cols. 2305-2310)…..

  9. Gunn should have told the whole truth, that Superman is a WHITE, qualified immigrant who did not voluntarily enter the US illegally, it was his evil parents who forced him to break the law.

    My points of critique are that Lois Lane and Clark Kent seem to work for MSM, and Superman is bulletproof, which is beyond unfair, so how can one worry about such characters? For the next movie he could save Ukraine from Russia(turns out Superman was the Ghost of Kiev), with a special cameo appearance by Zelensky himself. Fuck, now that sounds cringe worthy!

    Anyway, I do hope that there is a new trend to just make entertainment for the hell of just telling stories and entertaining people, in stead of preaching and social engineering. Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue.

    How can you say any of that? First, he may have white skin, but he’s an alien. He could be lizardoid under the skin. And it’s not skin that determines whiteness, anyhow. Or are you going to be like Jarrod Taylor and justify it with, “Well, he looks Hu-White to me!”

    Next, he did enter illegally. Snuck in by rocketship. Might as well have been in the back of a vegetable truck crossing the border at midnight. No difference.

    [BTW, you don’t force a baby to do anything, much less commit a crime. But that’s no reason not to deport.]

    As far as Ma and Pa Kent? They should be ICE’d. Thrown in Alligator Alley as accessories to child trafficking of an illegal immigrant.

    For a MAGA type, it is clear that ‘he has to go back’. His best bet would be to flee to a barrio in LA. Ditch Lois, and find himself an ‘undocumented’ senorita, possibly a La Raza activist willing to pump out anchor babies for him. It’s the American Way.

    https://forward.com/culture/504342/superman-10-jewish-things-siegel-shuster-samson-moses-golem/

    You probably know that Superman was the brainchild of two Jewish teenagers, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, who borrowed elements from Jewish tradition and culture to create their character. Most famously, his Kryptonian surname “El” means “god” in Hebrew and his origin story is basically that of Moses.

    But that’s just a schtickle. To celebrate the mensch of steel, here are 10 Jewish things you didn’t know about him.

    https://unpacked.media/everything-we-know-about-superman-star-david-corenswets-jewish-identity/

    David Corenswet, the actor stepping into the cape in the highly anticipated “Superman,” is the first Jewish actor to take on the role in a major film. For a character created in 1938 by two Jewish teens from Cleveland, this casting feels like a full-circle moment — one that highlights the deep (and often overlooked) Jewish DNA of America’s most iconic superhero.

    Adopted by what were presumably Kansas…non-denomination Evangelicals? Superman is the quintessential 20th century American mythic figure.

    The definition of white is an ongoing question. Perhaps he could modify his appearance, but somehow chose white. Maybe their whole planet did. Should we accept trans-whites if they successfully “pass” as white? Maybe they’re descendants of Hyperborea or vice-versa. Who knows.

    If white is entirely about direct ancestry, what about wiggers? If it’s about culture, what about the fact modern white culture has absolutely nothing to do with the white cultures of antiquity? And wiggers? As white culture has degraded, have we stopped being white? If we have, can we be white again if we try hard enough, even though the thread was broken?

    I don’t have the answers, but personally, I will never acknowledge someone as white if they worship Yahweh. I’ll think about it if they stop. I’m not a comic book nerd; what do we know about Superman’s religion?

  17. I prefer the George Reeves, 1950s Superman. Especially when some crook would shoot him 6 times, with the bullets shown bouncing off of him.

    First off let me remind that some of my people are entering the US as refugees right now, so suddenly I have to speak very carefully about migration or risk throwing some of my people under the bus. White migration to the US is good, in fact I wish Trump would offer refugee status to conservative Europeans and Australians for instance. No white needs to go to Europe anymore, although their older history is still inspirational.

    Superman made it through the US medical system without raising a eyebrow, so he has not been medically identified as a lizard. He would have passed the Apartheid era pencil test, so even if you can’t explain where he comes from, he is self-evidently a white man. No deport, he is obviously born qualified and he manages to hold a job and pay taxes (plus, he could fuckin kill everyone if we hurt his feelings deep enough).

    Jarod Tailor is a gentleman and a great example of white pride. At some point in your life you will need to be able to deal with non-whites, in which case you let someone like him do the talking.

    Yes Ma and Pa Kent should be dealt with, they may have more illegals working the fields.

    Great job sticking a Jew genocide subplot in there, with a repulsive Jew supremacist death kike!

    You know what would make it better, though, if this superman broke his neck too, not on a posh asshole fox hunt so he kinda had it coming but in some tragic way, like if an autistic child dropped a Michigan Brand ham on his head from 10 stories up or something like that. But instead of just siphoning out his mucus for years with vacuum cleaner noises punctuated by slurpy viscous sounds until he drowned in it like last time, they put him in a robotic exoskeleton with ramjet power and he became an actual superhero. It should be like the one Sigourney Weaver had in Alien but with a Karl Gustaf sticking out your crotch like a massive dick, BLAM! like Spooge of Death.

  22. @Mountain man

    Superman is a work of self-mythologization and has an interior focus. The mythos reveals complex and interesting feelings towards other people(s).

    Shuster hired her as a model for Lois, and his depiction of Lois was based on his drawings of her hairstyle and facial features. Interviewed in 1996 by The Plain Dealer, she recalled, “I remember the day I met Jerry in Joe’s living room. Jerry was the model for Superman. He was standing there in a Superman-like pose. He said their character was going to fly through the air, and he leaped off the couch to demonstrate.

    Interesting, but I tell you what, he may be the man of steel, but where did he get the money to build that alleged fortress of solitude at the North Pole? I think he may be running a protection racket on the US government. Exactly who and what is he protecting people from?! In the long run it could be wise for Uncle Sam to invest in a little bit of Kryptonite, just be sure about who is wearing the pants in this relationship.

    This is the absolute state of huwhite nationalism at the moment. Kowtowing to the kikes, officially. Moving from Niggerland 1 to Niggerland 2 to save the racially ambiguous “huhwhite race”.

    In the US, the term “White” refers to individuals who identify as having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa. This definition, established by the U.S. Census Bureau, guides how race is classified in official data and forms the basis for understanding this demographic group in the U.S.

    Funny how Euro countries that refuse to use the “white” label are 90% ethnically homogenous. The same for every other country on the planet. But the moment you are touched with “huwhite”, your country is flooded with niggers and the world’s genetic excrement.

    The vast majority of (“European”) Jews are more or less third cousins
    (“genetic bottleneck”) so exogamy is an exercise in squaring the circle.
    – The Icelandic genealogic tables (the most complete in the world) indicate
    a biological optimum (as number of offspring after several generations) near
    second cousin i.e. the benefit of gene reshuffling for the individual is nonexistent
    as it is balanced by the benefit of not having your genes fight each other
    (all that provided you do not have recessive defects in the first place);
    recombination (read: sexual reproduction) speeds up evolution
    (by increasing the probability of favorable combinations)
    but increases the number of rejects i.e. the problem is the genetic
    load carried along in a too-permissive environment

    Skinhead is a kosher, post 1945 anglojude creation, so no.

    And huh-whites are not my people. They are the enemies of my people and should be exterminated.

    I would call you a Fed if I were American, what are you up to? Either that or you are just drowning yourself in misery.

    Anyway, I do hope that there is a new trend to just make entertainment for the hell of just telling stories and entertaining people, in stead of preaching and social engineering. Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue.

    Superman has always had political/social commentaries going back to his earliest issues. He’s always been “woke” by modern right-wing standards.

    I prefer the George Reeves, 1950s Superman. Especially when some crook would shoot him 6 times, with the bullets shown bouncing off of him.

    Every live-action Superman reflected the comic book Superman of his era. This new one though seems to harken back to a 70s/80s comic book Superman.

  45. @Derh.

    From school days I remember old WW2 era Superman propaganda animations showing him fighting the Japs. For some reason it was shown on breakfast TV as a daily cartoon interlude at one stage. I still remember dramatic 40’s music and renderings of pasty spectacled Japs looking like mole rats with helmets.

    Anyway, I’m hoping that as time goes by new productions will have more entertainment and less of The Message.

    Superheroism and scapegoating are opposite sides of the same judaic coin.
    One magically “saves everyone” by being utterly invincible (and hence no hero at all because he risks nothing while imposing his personal totalitarianism on everyone else) the other magically “saves everyone” by being helplessly slaughtered for crimes they did not commit.

    So on the one hand, it educates people that they are unable to save themselves and need some magically endowed power to do it for them, while the other says that the guilty should be unpunished while the innocent suffer.

    Really; it takes a sick culture to create either concept.

    I have now seen this. What a sophisticated piece of work.

    Some say there was a sacrifice last time too.

    Lex Luthor: “I’m Aware Envy Consumes My Every Waking Moment”

    Clark Kent: “I’m as human as anyone. I love, I get scared. I wake up every morning and despite not knowing what to do, I put one foot in front of the other and I try to make the best choices I can. I screw up all the time, but that is being human. And that’s my greatest strength.” Watches montage of Kansas cornfields.

    As far as I’m aware, in their case Wakanda was destroyed in an unspecified space incident.

    In my youth, Judaism and Zionism felt synonymous. Now the American Jewish consensus has collapsed:

    But to me, the distinct contours of a contemporary phenomenon seemed to emerge: a widespread and profound disillusionment with the shape of American Jewish life and an intense yet unrealized desire for a Judaism awake to the injustices of the world, including, or perhaps especially, to those for which we, as Jews, were directly responsible.

    It made sense to me why. Those of us in our twenties and thirties have come of age at a time marked by turmoil and even catastrophe. The September 11 attacks, the 2008 financial crisis, Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, #MeToo, the Covid-19 pandemic and the ever-worsening climate disaster – these upheavals have given rise to a shared sensibility, not exclusively among young people, that our society and our communities require dramatic, fundamental transformation.

    Despite the acrimony of the contemporary intra-Jewish fight over Israel, there is also a certain symmetry between the pro-Israel establishment and its fiercest Jewish critics. Irving Howe’s observation that Israel became a stand-in for a form of Judaism that could exist in America’s secular, capitalist modernity still rings true today. Whether through affirmation and support or rejection and renunciation – and whether they like it or not – Israel remains at the center of the Jewish identities of both.

    And while the collapse of the postwar American Jewish consensus means that intra-Jewish infighting is perhaps more bitter than at any point since the early part of the last century, that might not be a bad thing. A living community is a community that finds things worth fighting over. When we cease to fight, we begin to die.

    Clark: “That message that my parents sent with me, I had never heard the second half before…I’m not who I thought I was. They sent me here to hurt people.

    Pa Kent: “Parents aren’t for telling their children who they’re supposed to be. Your choices, your actions, that’s what makes you who you are.”

    Adelson spent $70m+ on Birthright. The ROI is not great.

    Comics and graphic novels are written and drawn by adults for adults including for teens, and younger audiences of all ages. Why do you people come on here sounding like old stupid farts that hate everything?

    What I’ve learned about Aanglin is that his enemies aren’t exaggerating. He is preparing a spark and I live in a tinder box. There aren’t enough middle class people in my neighborhood – of all races- to find one who disagrees with that analogy.

    Just give me a break and let some mindless entertainment get past your steel trap. I used to think the overwhelming stupidity of those who go after your distribution was a rule. It’s a justified, if futile precautionary measure. But it only needs a spark of truth, and there is.

    Those hard looking guys walking out of the Al Medina men’s mosque are scarred all over their scalps. That the result of human violence. The only reason they don’t throw their weight around more, leaving it to the young punks, is that there are a diversity of nonwhites who won’t tolerate their bullshit. The only white networks capable of hardening their networks are generational criminal organizations.

    The only justification I’ve had in reading your work is because it is absolutely hilarious. The UNZ and the daily stormer? I’m done.
