About this listen
In this episode of Coolest Geek Alive, Jesse Blaze Snider pulls back the curtain on the real reason entertainment media is quietly undermining James Gunn’s upcoming Superman reboot. Why? Because it represents everything Hollywood’s elite fears: a moral, hopeful, good Superman that actually gives the audience what it’s been asking for. Zaslav’s move to hire Gunn wasn’t just a creative decision—it was a peace offering to a burned-out fanbase. And if it works? It proves that listening to the people, NOT pushing subversive agendas, MIGHT actually be the key to box office success. But the Entertainment Media Complex doesn’t want that story. So it’s slow-leaking negativity, stirring doubt, and trying to kill the film’s momentum before it even flies. This is more than just a movie...it’s a battle over narrative control, cultural hope, and who gets to define “heroism.” Buckle up. This one’s got heat vision.
