About this episode

The episode discusses the divisive reactions to the movie SUPERGIRL and its implications in fandom discourse.

SUPERGIRL, the follow-up to James Gunn's SUPERMAN from last year, has finally hit theaters, and people are being totally chill and not weird at all about it. Just kidding! The discourse has reached a fever pitch, but does the movie, starring Milly Alcock as the titular heroine with an assist from Jason Momoa as Lobo and David Corenswet returning as the Man of Steel, deserve the divisive response it's getting? Roxy and DJ try to decode what has made this movie in particular such a flashpoint in the fandom!
