Welcome back to our VIP video series "Off the Beaten Path," featuring my friend Christian Toto of Hollywood in Toto! Christian and I start off our week by discussing stories and ideas that may fly under our radar, in culture, politics, sports, and more. Plus, Christian previews his latest podcast at HiT.
Did the Gunn brothers try to gin up some controversy to promote a lackluster comic-book reboot? Christian Toto has his suspicions, especially after (finally) seeing an underwhelming Superman film. We look at the surprisingly earnest approach that made the "woke" commentary unnecessary, but then at the lost art of the fantasy blockbuster. Also, we look at the potential impact of Barack Obama and Larry David's collaboration on history through sketch comedy. What has happened to Hollywood's China market, and how might that improve what we see at the cinema?
Watch it all and join us in the comments!
