Oh, dear Lord, another Superman movie? 🙄 Is there really nothing else Hollywood can come up with? Will Reeve, son of the late, great (allegedly) Christopher Reeve, is here to grace us with his oh-so-important opinion. Apparently, the new Superman movie people actually dared to *consult* the Reeve family. Can you believe the audacity? 🤣 I mean, who cares what some journalist thinks? They should be groveling, begging for the Reeve family’s blessing, right? After all, they own Superman, don’t they? Sarcasm aside, maybe they’re just hoping some of that Reeve magic will rub off on this potentially disastrous reboot.
Will, bless his heart, wants everyone to know that he and his siblings aren’t “gatekeepers” of Superman. Well, duh! 🙄 Last time I checked, they didn’t create the character, nor do they own the rights. But it’s nice of him to pretend to be humble while simultaneously reminding us that his dad WAS Superman. We get it, Will. We get it. 🙄 He claims David Corenswet and the crew don’t *need* their approval. But hey, they’re “grateful” they got consulted. How magnanimous!
Oh, and the story about meeting Corenswet? 🙄 A deep voice? Blue and red? For a split second, he thought it was his dad! Cue the violins. 🎻 I’m sure that was a *totally* genuine, not-at-all-staged moment for the cameras. He bravely told Corenswet how “excited and supportive” his family is. Wow, what a profound and moving gesture! 🥹
And get this, Will Reeve has a cameo in the movie as a journalist! 🤣 How meta! How original! I’m sure his extensive training as a journalist (cough, cough) *totally* prepared him for this groundbreaking role. He even admitted to being more nervous than on TV! The pressure of delivering that one line must have been immense. 🤯
James Gunn, the fearless leader of this cinematic endeavor, says it’s “not the riskiest endeavor in the world.” Translation: “If this flops, it’s not *entirely* my fault.” He also scoffs at the idea that it needs to make $700 million to be a success. Right, because when has Hollywood *ever* cared about money? 🙄 If this movie bombs, expect Gunn to blame the fans, the studio, or even the weather. Anything but his own direction. 🤡
So, there you have it, folks. Another Superman movie is on the horizon, with the Reeve family’s lukewarm blessing and James Gunn’s somewhat-confident assurances. Will it be a soaring success or a kryptonite-level disaster? Only time will tell. But one thing’s for sure: the internet will have plenty to say about it.🍿
Finn McFrame, celebrated satirical mastermind and self-proclaimed “Emperor of Irony,” started his illustrious career as a cinematographer, where his expertise in capturing every single frame of a squirrel stealing a baguette earned him accolades at obscure film festivals.
Born in the glamorous town of Boring, Oregon, Finn grew up with dreams of being a Hollywood director until he realized that satire, not cinema, was his true calling—or at least the one that let him sleep until noon.
