Thankfully 2025 did a lot of things right, like bringing back the underpants.

If I remember correctly, the actor actually insisted on it, with the idea being that Superman would want to look more like a performer to put people's minds at ease

They aren't underwear. They are trunks, and they are based on strongmen costumes of the early 1900's.

And yes I am very happy to see them return as well because that is very much a part of Superman's look. Because he is the ultimate strongman.

Came here to say this very thing. I enjoyed the new one too, more than the ones with Cavill. Had some heart and a little humor.

Rachel Brosnahan is the best Lois

She’s good, but I’m an old school Margot Kidder fan.

I felt like Rachel Brosnahan's performance as Lois Lane was either inspired by or an homage to Margot Kidder. They both seem to effortlessly balance smart, funny, feminine, and powerful in an apparently effortless way. Both have maad rizz, no cap.

2025 YOU'RE JUST AS BEAUTIFUL AS THE DAY I LOST YOU
