We’re back from our summer break and straight into the season’s most anticipated cinematic event. Fresh from an early screening of Superman, Ben and Dash weigh in on a film that’s already turning heads for its scale and style. But can the film convince superhero-fatigued audiences that it's much more than your average comic book movie? Plus: why the Man of Steel has always been a political figure (and why he still should be), and a glance back at his very first feature film appearance in 1951’s Superman and the Mole Men. Capes on — At the Pictures returns.
