Last week, James Gunn's SUPERMAN began shooting on location in Superman's birthplace of Cleveland, Ohio. And as many people predicted, the leaked photos are JUMPIN' and the nerddom is high.

So in this episode, we excitedly discuss the absolutely thrilling photos that appeared on Twitter during the first two days of shooting. We have now a REALLY great look at Superman's new costume, as well as characters like Mr. Terrific, Lois Lane, Perry White, Jimmy Olsen, Ron Troupe, Cat Grant etc.

But possibly the most surprising reveal we saw those first two days of shooting was Clark Kent's hair. We've never seen Clark sport a curly hairstyle like this before, which is dramatically different from his Superman hairstyle. What's up with that? Is this really Clark's normal hairstyle? And how will Clark make his hair-transition to Superman the movie?
