SnyderCut Fans React: James Gunn Shuts Down Superman Bomb Call

Jun 17, 2025 10:31 AM

A recent controversy has emerged around the upcoming Superman movie, as the SnyderCut subreddit moderated a call to action aimed at rallying fans to "review bomb" the film in support of the SnyderVerse. James Gunn, the current architect of the DC Universe, responded sarcastically to the claims of fan influence, asserting that the proposed actions would have little impact on the film's success. In response, the subreddit’s moderators quickly distanced themselves from the controversial post, affirming that it did not reflect their values and had violated community guidelines. This incident highlights the ongoing tensions within the fanbase and the struggle between new direction in the DC film universe and established allegiances to earlier works by Zack Snyder.

What does the SnyderCut subreddit say about the Superman review bomb campaign?

The SnyderCut subreddit moderators removed a post calling for fans to review bomb the upcoming Superman movie, stating it was not approved and did not reflect their stance. They emphasized their commitment to maintaining community standards and discouraged any manipulative tactics against the movie.

The new Superman film is set in a shifting landscape for the DC Universe, following a tumultuous history under Snyder's vision, culminating in the release of the Snyder Cut of Justice League. James Gunn's leadership has marked a new beginning, but it hasn't been without backlash from parts of the fanbase dedicated to Snyder's earlier films. The upcoming movie is anticipated to redefine Superman's character, aiming for a fresh take while managing the expectations and divisions among loyal fans.
