- Did the Geeks think this movie got the tone for Superman correct, especially when compared to the Superman interpretation in the DCEU?

- Do the Geeks feel like Perry White & Jimmy Olsen know that Clark Kent is Superman, or is the hint in the movie only about them knowing Lois Lane has a thing with Superman, or is it left ambiguous either way?

- Did the Geeks like the portrayals of Lois Lane, Lex Luthor, and all the support characters?

- In what ways did Lois Lane remind Todd of women he's worked with before?

- What were the Geeks' favorite things plus nitpicks about the scene where Lois interviews Clark on the record as Superman?

- What possible connections was Todd able to make between Clark's abilities as a reporter, his relationship with Lois, and the possibility that Perry knew he's Superman?

- How important was it to the Geeks that this movie is bright & colorful?
