This week on episode #176 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we dive into Supergirl and the exhausting discourse that seems to surround every new DC movie before anyone can simply talk about whether the movie is actually good. We break down what worked for us, what didn’t, and how the conversation surrounding Supergirl became as interesting as the movie itself. We also get into where the film fits into James Gunn’s growing DCU and what it tells us about the direction this universe is heading.

Plus we try to understand why movie studios continually make decisions that seem designed to lose money, and try to answer the question of whether or not we are entering a new age of comic book movies.
