"SuperDad" Superman & Lois Recaps: "What Lies Beneath," "The Ties That Bind" & "The Thing in the Mines"

 Superman & Lois


As you all know, I was a big fan of season one of "Superman & Lois." It was a great show that may be one of the best DC shows that the CW has produced. I said what I said. So, I think it goes without saying that I am excited to find out where they are going to take things in season two. We are covering three episodes in this post, so let's get to it.

Road to No Way Home: Venom

 "Venom" (2018)


It was only a matter of time until Venom got his own solo movie. Much like Wolverine and Deadpool, Venom is a character that came to prominence in the Nineties and if the latter characters can have their solo moment to shine, why not Venom. I always thought that Spider-Man would somehow factor in to a Venom solo film, but with the MCU utilizing Spider-Man, Sony decided that they would start their own Spider-Man movie universe... sans Spider-Man. What better way to anchor that than with Venom... I guess.

Principal photography began on "Venom" in October 2017 and ended in January 2018. The film stars Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock/Venom, Michelle Williams as Annie Weying, Riz Ahmed as Carlton Drake/Riot, Jenny Slate as Dora Skirth, Scott Haze as Roland Treece and Reid Scott as Dan Lewis. The film was written by Jeff Pinkner, Scott Rosenberg and Kelly Marcel. It was directed by Ruben Fleischer. "Venom" premiered on October 5, 2018.
