    @kradec.bsky.social's Superhero Movie Rewatch revisits "Thunderbolts*"–not a perfect film, but an absolute delight that manages to wrestle with surprisingly serious themes in a smart and satisfying way!

    I get the sense director JC Chandor simply decided to make a solid drama with superhero elements rather than make a #SuperheroMovie #Kraven movie is actually decent, just don't expect a full-fledged Superhero movie

    TIL Superhero Movie came out two months before the start of the MCU And honestly it's kind of insane how the superhero parody movie came out before the "superhero movie fatigue franchise" even started It's like if Spaceballs came out before A New Hope

    @GramrgednAngel #DieHard is a movie set during the Christmas season. It is not a movie where the Christmas "magic" figurative/literal is central to the plot. It is a movie. :dy18: Is the protagonist a #pulp "superhero", well yeah (think #DocSavage/Avenger/Black-Bat). So it is a "#SuperheroMovie" set during the Christmas season. Now we can debate what really matters. 😂 Also: CHRISTMAS PARTY Movie 👍
