    EP 83: Superman Review: Rebooting, Reinventing, and Revitalising the Man of Steel & The Failure Of The Synderverse.
    Sep 4 2025

    This is episode 83 of The Truth Tank.

    Rebooting, Reinventing, and Revitalising the Man of Steel

    In this episode, we dive deep into the world of DC, and the new Superman film, which will kick start the relaunch of DC franchise.

    Can James Gunn successfully reboot, reinvent, and revitalise Superman? We start by taking an in depth look at the failure of the Snyder Verse and the DCEU. Where did it all go wrong? What were the highs and lows? How was a golden opportunity to create a great franchise missed, when all the elements were right there? Fifteen films were produced in the DCEU over more than a decade, but how many were worth the big screen experience? We’ll analyse the failures across the series, covering everything from The Man of Steel, Batman V Superman, Suicide Squad, Birds of Prey, Aquaman, The Flash and of course Justice League & The Snyder Cut.

    Why wasn’t there a Man of Steel 2 or 'Batfleck' standalone Batman film? We’ll also look at the biggest problem with Justice League and the SC, rank the best and worst films in the Snyder Verse and debate whether Snyder’s creative freedom helped or hindered DC’s cinematic universe- as well as Ben Affleck’s underrated Batman.

    We’ll also touch on DC’s struggles under Warner Bros, the Marvel vs DC rivalry (who did it better?). Was the downfall of DC due to too much executive control, or not enough? DidThe Snyder Cut restore balance or further complicate things?Gunn’s Superman is the rebirth – the reboot - not only of the Man of Steel but the DC universe itself.

    Can we really blame James Gunn for wiping the slate clean and starting over? Can he be the saviour DC needs? And the big question: Did Superman live up to the hype?Tune in for a no-holds-barred discussion on the past, present, and future of the Man of Steel.

    EP 82: The Lie Of Communism: Chapter 2: Aftermath of the Bloody Sunday Massacre, Lenin’s War Against The Tsar, WW1 & The Great Proletariat Revolution.
    Aug 21 2025
    This is the second instalment of The Lie Of Communism.Chapter 2 picks up from where we left off in Chapter 1, The Aftermath of the Bloody Sunday Massacre. Russia was forever changed. The people’s faith and trust in The Tsar had been shattered. Meanwhile, Lenin and the Bolsheviks were gaining more and more support by the day, as The Tsar was doubling down on his control over the people. Revolution was in the air!However, internal tensions were brewing within the Bolshevik Party. Lenin went on the offensive, calling for mass terror and continent-wide conflict. Turning the failure of the 1905 Revolution into an advantage, he used it in his crusade against Tsar Nicholas. In the Wake of the BSM, the Tsar was forced to issue a series of reforms known as the October Manifesto. The Manifesto promised change to his people who were desperate for their Tsar to acknowledge their pleas for fairness and change.Russia was plunged back into chaos as the Tsar tightened his grip on power, refusing to accept the Manifesto controlling the parliament through the Duma. Lenin returned to St. Petersburg, seeing his opportunity to strike at the Tsar. He spread his message through another newspaper, Vperyod (forward), which brought new members and increased revenue to the Bolshevik Party. The party was growing rapidly, and more funding was needed despite Lenin’s views on capitalism.A young Joesph Stalin proved himself to the party, coming up with a plan to acquire more funding with Lenin’s blessing in a less than legal way. But Lenin’s decision to sanction crime divided the Bolsheviks and ultimately forced Lenin into exile once more. At the same time, the death of his mother sent him into a cycle of depression. Lenin’s world had collapsed and his future within the party and his dream of a proletariat revolution were in doubt. That was until his guardian angel, Inessa Armand, rescued him from despair, pulling him up from the dark abyss and back into the light. Armand was responsible for Lenin’s resurrection and the reshaping of the man that would one day lead the revolution. For decades, the Soviets covered up her role and importance in his story, but it was through her that Lenin 2.0 was born. From this point, he fundamentally changed his interruption of Marxism, redefining his philosophy. All the while, World War I was lurking in the background of the European Landscape.Socials:Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/thetruthtank/Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/ThetruthTank/Listen:Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/0P4Hcqlgc6kCG0bYyAS2SuApplehttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-truth-tank/id1463256905I Heart Radiohttps://iheart.com/podcast/76110779Castboxhttps://castbox.fm/channel/The-Truth-Tank-id5627421?country=usAmazonhttps://music.amazon.com/podcasts/791410e2-fa17-43e7-84db-6c81325f4203Youtubehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrhX1ZqvZx_xM59bk-tRa6QAudible https://www.audible.com.au/podcast/The-Truth-Tank/B08K6PRB1F?source_code=ASSGB149080119000H&share_location=pdpSources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Leninhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloody_Sunday_(1905)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicholas_IIhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Revolution_of_1905https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inessa_Armandhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_Dumasa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.britannica.com/biography/Vladimir-Lenin&ved=2ahUKEwiuqb-5rMOOAxX1TGwGHbOdJGIQFnoECEMQAQ&usg=AOvVaw2U_TCtj0nxVTHwLqVo_LVZhttps://www.ebsco.com/research-starters/history/russian-revolution-1905https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/january-22/bloody-sunday-massacre-in-russia&ved=2ahUKEwjD8Pz-rcOOAxWHS2wGHUOwDioQFnoECD0QAQ&usg=AOvVaw1RonPLCD9PSa9Bolko-VYihttps://www.historytoday.com/archive/months-past/bloody-sunday-st-petersburgMusic Credit:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Гимн_Российской_Республики_и_РДФР_(Рабочая-Марсельеза).oga

  • EP 81: The Weekly Tank: Jurassic World Rebirth Review: Reboot, Revival or Repetition?

    EP 81: The Weekly Tank: Jurassic World Rebirth Review: Reboot, Revival or Repetition?
    Aug 7 2025

    This is episode 81 of The Truth Tank.

    Extra! Extra! It's time for another edition of The Weekly Tank, and with it, another film review. This weeks review is "Jurassic World Rebirth", the seventh film in the "Jurassic Park" franchise. Directed by Gareth Edwards and written by David Koepp. Starring Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, Mahershala Ali, Rupert Friend and Ed Skrein.

    "Rebirth" takes place 5 years after the events of "Jurassic World Dominion", in a world where the public has lost interest in dinosaurs and due to changes in climate conditions have started to die off, except for some small pockets around the equator. The film follows a team led by Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson) on a mission to extract DNA from three massive dinosaur species to develop a treatment for heart disease. Where are these Dinosaurs? Well, that's the catch, they're located on a mysterious island near Barbados that is off limits and controlled by the Government.

    Before looking at the new film, we will revisit the entire Jurassic franchise, ranking them from best to worst, exploring T-Rex VS Spinosaurus, looking at the problems with Jurassic Park III, weighing up the pros and cons of the Jurassic World Trilogy, appreciating the genius of Jurassic Park, unpacking the tropes and cliches within the franchise, questioning InGen's lack of security, discussing the damn infamous snickers wrapper and exposing Jurassic World Rebirth's biggest sins. Is the film a Rebirth, a Revival or a Repetition?
