Random rambling that might be obvious to most but just ocurred to me as i was listening to "My goodbye" from the Epic: The Musical soundtrack:

The lines between Athena and Odysseus are constantly referring to other myths:

Odysseus: This way you're out of my head now

It's referring to Athena's birth from Zeus's head as a fully grown warrior.

This way you're out of sight and out of mind

A reference to how Athena used her Barrete to turn invisible and hide from Ares during the Troy war.

Athena: This day you sever your own head

Comparing him to a botched Perseus

This day you cut the line

Comparing his fumble to Theseus and the ball of yarn his mother gives him as a way to find a way out of the labyrinth.

You're just a man.

Referring not only to the song, but to the fact Odysseus has no ichor in his veins, he's fully a mortal man.

So, in a nutshell:

Odysseus is literally calling her an "overgrown child" and a coward.

Athena is basically saying she made a wrong choice in thinking a mortal could be as smart as a demigod. Implying that he was never gonna be good enough to be a hero like her half brothers.

Jorge is truly an amazing storyteller to be able to express those sentiments in such few words. Incredible job!

Superbat meets the Kents for the first time is one of my favorite tropes for them. Ma and Pa Kent would be over the moon with anyone Clark brings home, it’s just baked in. They loved Lois, they loved Lana, and then when thirty-something Clark brings home a forty-something Gotham billionaire vigilante who looks like a super model except for the eyebags, they’re trying so hard.

Bruce clears his throat and says “I parked my plane in your corn field. I hope that’s alright.” And it takes Ma and Pa a moment to get over the words my plane before Pa says “The one near the barn?” and Bruce gives him the most bizarre look before replying “No, sir. The one you just harvested. I’ll backfill the wheel ruts before I take off, I know you’re planning on rotating crops for winter to fix the nitrogen” and Pa looks at Ma, Ma looks at Pa, and Pa claps Clark on the shoulder and says “This one…this one is more than okay.”

The Kents heard "plane" and "cornfield" and had horror flashbacks to when Clark brought home his boyfriend Lex Luthor who landed a plane right in the middle of a cornfield that was up for harvest the next day and the plane left a trail of dead plants and smooshed corn in its wake.

Been thinking about how the new Superman movie did a really good job of giving Clark interests beyond “Truth, Justice, and a Better Tomorrow.” He likes pop punk rock. His favorite meal is breakfast for dinner. Clark does a little dance when he gets the front cover byline. He likes to doom-scroll. Unclear if he’s a dog guy. His girlfriend makes him hot cocoa when he’s sad. So often Superman in film has zero personality beyond tortured alien that must guide humanity. Giving him these small details made the character feel so much more real. He really is just a guy doing his best.

Broke: Merlin is a royalist because he is a class traitor boot licker

Woke: Merlin is a royalist because he was raised a peasant in the sixth century and he has the perspective and values typical of that time period on top of his personal experiences with Arthur to give him faith in the enlightened despotism favored by Catherine the Great and Frederick of Prussia.

Bespoke: Merlin is a royalist because anyone who had to live through both the English Civil War and Voltaire's exile to Britain would come out the other side thinking democracy is stupid.

Transcendent: Merlin is not a royalist. He is the divine right of kings in human form. The avatar of Albion and its magic. He does not believe in kings because of Arthur. He believes in Arthur so Arthur gets to be king.

Sherlock Holmes adaptation with vampires, but the whole time Holmes is coming up with perfectly plausible explanations and Watson is in the background going "Vampires, blood sucking Vampires".

Watson:* breaks his cane, stabs two vampires in the heart, sure Holmes will believe him after this*

Holmes: you see, my dear Doctor, anyone would have died after you stab them in the heart.

Bonus:

The vampires get confused and think Holmes is one of them. He doesn't eat, sleep, has apparent supernatural powers of deduction, is very pale and nocturnal and has a human servant doing his bidding...

I absolutely adore how normal Clark's parents looked so normal. I realize the ideal of them is a strong farmer and his wife and that might be a beautiful older woman and her sturdy handsome husband. Nothing wrong with that. But Martha and Jonathan Kent in this movie were the kind of older couple I'd see at the grocery store in my own small-town. The kind of people at the community hall and auction grounds picking up hay bales for the cattle.

They were warm and just so normal it almost surprises you. They also don't resemble Clark at all which I think is important in driving home the fact that they aren't his biological parents. He stands out amongst them it's so clear he's different and special even. And my god do they love him.

The way they call for him and sit on a rusty bench outside the creaky screen door. That feels like home to me having grown up on the prairies. How authentic they feel only grounds Clark even more. It feels less like a dream or idea of a perfect farm family and is more two people who tried their best and will bake apple pie with calloused hands full of love

Words cannot begin to describe how much I LOVE TO HATE Nicholas Hoult's portrayal of Lex Luthor, and that Russian Roulette with Malik did for his version of Luthor what the "LOOK AT ME!" scene did for Heath Ledger's Joker.

It truly captures what makes Lex Luthor a great Superman antagonist: a megalomaniacal capitalist pig driven by a lethal cocktail of pettiness and psychopathy; a man who postures himself as a saviour of humanity who doesn't have a trace of humanity in him.

He could've taunted Superman with all the tragedies in Metropolis and the world that he could've stopped if he wasn't imprisoned, and just left it at that. But he went further. He abducted an ordinary man whose only crime was offering Clark some food to eat and forced him to witness the hero he looked up to at his lowest point. Breaking both Malik and Clark in one fell swoop. But he went further.

He could've just shot him then and there, but what does he do? He turns it into a game of chance. And when he actually ends up murdering him, he gets bummed out that it couldn't go on longer!

All of this to destroy someone who others treat as a god just so he can keep pretending to be one.
