SUPERMAN VS. BRAINIAC!! Superman: Unbound Full Reaction Watch Along: https://www.patreon.com/thereelrejects With James Gunn's SUPERMAN coming up, Coy & John are BACK to continue their newly-revitalized DC Animated Movie journey giving their Superman: Unbound, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!! - Visit https://www.liquidiv.com & use Promo Code: REJECTS to get 20% off your first order. Superman: Unbound pits the Man of Steel (Matt Bomer, White Collar, Chuck) against one of his most formidable foes when the alien collector Brainiac (John Noble, Fringe, The Lord of the Rings) arrives on Earth with plans to bottle Metropolis just as he did Krypton’s capital, Kandor. When a Brainiac drone’s assault on Metropolis forces Superman to trace its signal to the Fortress of Solitude, he teams with Supergirl (Molly C. Quinn, Castle, Castle Rock)—who reveals her own harrowing history with Brainiac—and uncovers the villain’s mission to amass infinite knowledge by destroying every world he visits. Iconic moments include the breath‐stealing rescue of Superman inside Brainiac’s ship, the climactic showdown as Brainiac attempts to implode Earth in a miniaturized bottle, and the emotional reunion in Kandor under the red sun. The stellar voice cast is led by Matt Bomer as Clark Kent / Superman, bringing both strength and empathy to the role, and Stana Katic ( Castle, Quantum of Solace ) as Lois Lane, whose investigative drive pushes Clark to confront his true identity. Rounding out the ensemble are Alexander Gould ( Finding Nemo, Weeds ) as Jimmy Olsen, Frances Conroy ( Six Feet Under, American Horror Story ) as Martha Kent, Stephen Root ( Office Space, Barry ) as Zor‐El, Diedrich Bader ( The Fairly OddParents, Veep ) as Steve Lombard, Sirena Irwin ( Transformers, Gargoyles ) as Alura, and Wade Williams ( Prison Break, Sharknado ) as Perry White, each adding depth to the high‐stakes battle and the film’s exploration of heroism versus the ruthless logic of villainy. Don’t miss Coy & John’s breakdown of every explosive Brainiac trap, Superman’s breathtaking power display, and the emotional core that underpins this adaptation of Geoff Johns’ celebrated Superman: Brainiac arc—proving why Superman: Unbound remains a standout in the DC Universe Animated Original Movies! #SupermanUnbound #MattBomer #StanaKatic #JohnNoble #MollyCQuinn #Supergirl #DCAnimation #Brainiac #HeroVsVillain #MovieReaction #ReactionReview #CoyJandreau #JohnHumphrey #React #Reaction #Animation #AnimatedMovie #DC #DCComics #Movie #Movies Superman vs. The Elite (2012) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/5rvcP_OfQLU Superman II: The Donner Cut (1980) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/5Em7TuEs6gI Superman: The Movie (1978) COY's Reaction: https://youtu.be/mlubceOmcz0 The Death of Superman (2018) Movie Reaction: https://youtu.be/qgp3_snSKyw My Adventures with Superman Eps 1, 2, 3, & 4 Reaction: https://youtu.be/HkRkNdH4iTE 0:00 Checking In! 0:59 Superman: Unbound Reaction 43:50 LIQUID IV 45:44 Post Credits Scene 48:05 Patron Q&A 57:26 Superman: Unbound Review 1:14:10 Patron of the Day SHOUT OUT!

here's some comic trivia. sometime in the sixties, IIRC, Supes and Jimmy Olsen took a trip into the bottle city of Kandor (which Supes had in his fortress of solitude by then). He has no powers in the city, and he and Jimmy became costumed crime fighters after the Batman-and-Robin mold, and called themselves: Nightwing and Flamebird. Many decades later, one of the Robins graduated and called himself Nightwing. But he wasn't the first.

That cop screaming Get off the roof was obviously Dan Turpin. I’m sure you remember him from Superman the animated series. Was a great character. His end scene was pretty memorable in that series.

This is a follow up to Superman/Batman: Apocalypse (2010) also based in the 2nd (or may be 3rd) arc from Superman/Batman comics which itself is a follow up to Superman/Batman: Public enemies also based in the 1st arc of Superman/Batman comic (2003-2011). This one is my favourite Superman animated movie. For public enemies they went the Disney style and at some extent did the same with Apocalypse. This one is much darker in tone and better written but still giving us the classic hopeful Superman the story needs. In the darker times hope shines the most. And this design of Superman/Clark...it couldn't be more Matt Bomery.
