  [Heavy spoilers for 2025’s Superman , seriously, everything will be on the table. Go watch this movie and come back to this.] With the current state of comic book movies, I imagine that average moviegoers have come to expect nothing more than a self-serving, spacefaring shenanigan-fest, an insufferable tapestry of bottom-barrel “comedy” tailored to appeal to younger audiences. I like these movies. I like superheroes. I’ll consistently give unwarranted grace to mediocre outings simply because I like seeing my childhood action figures come to life.

Again, I was not aware of this as Pipsqueakzaws, but the guys over at EA sure as shit were. I loaded up Skate 2 on my PS3 and played the rest of the year away. It wouldn’t be until later in 2010 or even early 2011 that I’d find out by chance ...
