We give a long-overdue visit to 1978’s Superman: The Movie, appreciate the film’s cinematic quality and inspiring John Williams soundtrack; discuss the permeating Christian allegory of the story; and cheer for Margot Kidder’s funny and feminine-but-not-treacly Lois Lane.

In the year’s grand finale, we are joined in the studio by JUAAAAAN!!

We kick off 2012’s penultimate podcast by discussing 2005 movie The Island — wait, wut? Yes, The Island. After seven years of GWC-style analysis and geeky discussion, returning to this flawed-but-likable movie made us realize how much the ‘cast has transformed the way we understand and appreciate art.
