This week on Big Trouble Little Podcast, the crew dives into Superman (1978), the film that helped define the modern superhero movie. Starring Christopher Reeve, Gene Hackman, and Marlon Brando, this classic comic book adaptation set the standard for superhero films for decades.

This month we’re ranking early “cape” comic book movies — the weird ones, the stylish ones, the ones that hit before the MCU turned everything into a cinematic factory line. First up: Constantine (2005).

We talk Keanu’s chain-smoking demon-deporter energy, the movie’s killer casting (Rachel Weisz, Tilda Swinton), why the vibes are immaculate even when the plot is… doing side quests, and why Lucifer absolutely steals the show in the final stretch.

Plus: Spear of Destiny lore, Hell Bible nonsense (affectionate), the cross shotgun debate, and why this movie feels like one giant AMV with a budget.

Next episode: Hellboy (2004) — Guillermo del Toro, Ron Perlman, and pure monster-movie comic book goodness.
