Throughout the episode, there was a palpable tension between fan enthusiasm and industry cynicism. Some viewers enjoyed the Superman film, viewing it as a wholesome family movie poised to introduce new fans to the character, while others remained skeptical, citing production issues or marketing missteps.
Notably, they discussed the international performance of superhero movies, with some blaming anti-American sentiment for lower box office numbers abroad.
