    A new Franchise Detours mega-series takes flight! Deanna Chapman of The Podcast Life joins us to take a fresh look at 1978’s iconic Superman: The Movie just as James Gunn’s 2025 reboot starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, and Nicholas Hoult soars into theaters.

    We’ll discuss Christopher Reeve’s iconic portrayal of the Man of Steel, how the original film set the blueprint for superhero cinema, and the enduring legacy that continues to influence the genre and filmmaking today.

    'Before Midnight' (feat. filmmaker Jackson Smith)
    Jun 28 2025
    On this episode of Franchise Detours, we reach the final stop in Richard Linklater’s Before trilogy with 2013’s Before Midnight. Jackson Smith returns to the show to unpack this raw, reflective chapter in the ongoing story of Jesse (Ethan Hawke) and Céline (Julie Delpy).

    Set nearly two decades after their first meeting, Before Midnight trades youthful idealism for hard-earned honesty as the couple confronts what lasting love really looks like. We’ll discuss how Linklater, Hawke, and Delpy bring a lived-in authenticity to this bittersweet installment, one that challenges everything that came before it.

    With its intimate long takes and emotionally charged dialogue, Before Midnight shifts the trilogy’s tone from romantic fantasy to grounded reality. It's a love story, yes, but one that dares to ask what happens after the fairy tale. Join us as we complete our trek through one of the finest trilogies in cinema history.
