@@davidchittick6783 I think they should use it like how The Batman used Something in The Way. It fits perfectly. Both the Batman Theme and Something in The Way are equally as iconic in the movie.
If you didn't know, there has been an ongoing superman meme where it is being used as a positive trend to post about good things, and the song being used is Starman, which is why so many people want it
I think having the star man song playing in the end credits is the best way to go and the finale being Superman flying away it fits perfectly for some reason
I don’t think people are memeing to throw shade about Starman for Superman. It’s basically starting to become the unofficial theme of Superman, and well. It fits. I see it less as throwing shade to James Gunn and more of it being a song that fits Superman well. Kinda reminds me of a similar case for another franchise, Mortal Kombat, where Pitbull’s International Love has become the unofficial theme for Johnny Cage
1:42 The reason why there’s people saying JG might use starman is because that’s practically become supermans theme song (Just look up “Superman edit” and you'll know what i’m talking about)
I can kinda see it like if he's flying through the skies or whatever or if him or Mr tariffic are * goofing around and James always does a good job with his soundtracks and movies
@@Myself_here It works as long as the film isn't supposed to be super serious. This is why Thor 4 sucked but Thor 3 was the best Thor despite both having the same formula. Superman in his early years could apply fine with the 80s pop music. If he's fighting Darkseid or Braniac or Amazo you might wanna hire Zack back. But I mean. If he's fighting that guy with the very hard to pronounce name that I will always know Gilbert Gotfried for. Well you can't exactly tell me that couldn't work.
Man, I'm actually dying here!! 😂 It's been 24 hours, and I've watched the video about seven times, and it gets me every time!! We need an intro gag with this song next Superman video! A little inside joke! 😂❤
I feel like it won't but there is a chance: Andrew says he wasn't in NWH = He was. Dafne Keen says he wasn't in DP & Wolvie = She was. James Gunn says he won't use Starman for Superman = He will. Just kidding but at least for a flight scene or a montage of him just doing small things like helping a cat out of a tree. I am mostly hoping for some M83 playing cause that’d be dope asf!
I'm honestly hoping that James Gunn takes the soundtrack a semi-serious tone. He did a fantastic job with Suicide Squad and GotG, but I feel there is something different about Superman when it comes to musical selection. Like I love the Hanz Zimmer song Flight in Man of Steel and of course the iconic main theme of Superman. Thankfully, he's debunked the rumors, but recognizing his ability to utilize comtemporary music as a tool to heighten a scene, I'm hoping he is tasteful with this movie.
@@blackwulf8793so I'm guessing you don't like guardians of the galaxy, The Suicide Squad, Peacemaker, and brightburn huh? Well then, don't watch it. It's that simple. No argument, just don't watch the movie.
I saw the rumor on Reddit from a DC X/Twitter fan account with a variant of the DC logo as its profile picture. I didn't think it was from Snyder fanboys, but I didn't believe it because the post claimed, "it was heard on set, so it might be in the movie!"-which sounded pretty dubious to me.
I always envisioned Starman playing on the beginning of the movie with the Kents with a montage as time passes and Clark grows up and seeing the Kents reaction to everytime Clark awakens a new power like those family footage movies
WELL TO BE FAIR starman was actually a song used in meme where ppl are heroic and it fits Superman VERY WELL as well as James Gunn’s pickings. It’s a legit thing ppl (including me tbf) really want in the film or atleast in the trailers because it fits Superman so well and would be iconic for many who love (what is one of the more wholesome and good) the meme, the song, or feel like it’d work.
I don’t think James is gonna use the song for Superman, 1. Bc he already said he won’t 2. Him being the nerd he is Im willing to be the character Starman will show up at some point and that’s when he’ll use the song
Not really, they got the Snydercut, held onto their wallets and refused to fund the Hamadaverse which included Gunns Tss. Now WBD is in MASSIVE debt. They should've listened to their fans. Snyder fans also raised over a million for afsp. What do Gunn fans do apart from cry to Disney to bring him back after he got exposed for his fetish.
@@MadMax-ot3fi shut up you traitor because everything you said is huge lie , the old DCEU aka snyderverse was total failure meaning the new DCU will kill the old DCEU , lastly not least , Snyder fans are jokes and very toxic
i can see the Chumbawamba song being used in the big battle in the third act. " I get knocked down, I get up again and nothing's gonna keep me down". *as Superman flys at the villain and punches him in the face* " I AM A MAN"! XD
Part of it started with a Brazilian cosplayer called TallClark that posted a tiktok video dressed as Reeve's Superman with that song and doing good actions, playing with kids in schools and talking to people. There was even a comic cover as an homage to that cosplayer with Superman holding kids in his arms.
Section 107 of the Copyright Act gives examples of purposes that are favored by fair use: *“criticism, comment,* news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, [and] research.” So this video shouldn't get copyrighted, if it does Chris show them the text above (which is the literal law).
I'm just scared the whole time when watching Superman that I'm gonna be going "that's the way it is because it's James Gunn" instead of actually being immersed and watching the film. I don't want to be pulled out of it by gimmicky camera tricks, random soundtracks, or stupid jokes. If it wasn't for Suicide Squad, I wouldn't be thinking like this but now I'm just in the mindset of watching this film to see where it is compromised simply because of who is directing it. I hope I am wrong and the film turns out to be an actual film, and not a meta "hey I'm an artist, here's my style" slap in the face every 2 seconds.
I think we all know that Waiting for Superman by Daughtry should be the song used for this movie. I think that song was supposed to be in Man of Steel initially.
Its not the Snyderbros that are bullying Gunn! Its the Superman fans who want it! Starman perfectly incapsulates the hopeful and optimistic nature of Superman. "There's a starman waiting in the sky. He'd like to come and meet us, but he thinks he'd blow our minds." Clark is an alien who had to hide himself because him and his parents were afraid of how the world would react to an alien. And the lyrics describe Ziggy Stardust bringing a message of hope to Earth's youth through the radio, salvation by an alien 'Starman'. This song is the unofficial Superman Theme for this reason!
Starman plus an image of Superman has been memed for awhile now especially on Instagram. It’s a funny meme and it would be nice to see it in the movie/trailer
It's not bullying. People genuinely want to see Starman used in at least one of the trailers.
I am one of those people
Ngl that song does fit very well like it did in the Lightyear trailer, but tbh I say they should do Superman main theme instead imo.
🤓
@@davidchittick6783 I think they should use it like how The Batman used Something in The Way. It fits perfectly. Both the Batman Theme and Something in The Way are equally as iconic in the movie.
The song fucking sucks
There’s a starman is 100 percent playing in Superman lol.
Definitely
Gunn already said it’s not going to be in the movie
Gunn confirmed it won’t be in it
Sadly Starman won’t be played in Superman (2025)
Gunn confirmed it's not gonna be in it, and he liked a comment saying that said, "It's a good song, but it's too predictable"
David Bowie in a Superman movie would be peak ngl, has to happen
He's dead chief.
Has been for a little while.
@@YEAR-1-RELICSwhat’s that got to do w his point🤔
I think I’d lose it
Imagine Chumbawamba BLASTING in the theater while Superman is fighting a bunch of villains at the same time💀
Tubthumping would actually be hilarious over a montage of Superman being smashed into the ground by different villains
Lowkey that's the only way it would work for me
Lmao
If you didn't know, there has been an ongoing superman meme where it is being used as a positive trend to post about good things, and the song being used is Starman, which is why so many people want it
Memes aside the song itself is definitely something that fits Superman
@@hype5456 agreed
Naw they made that trend because they want it in the movie. That's it. Not the reverse..
Ngl I could easily see Tubthumping in the movie as Superman is getting his ass locked by a villain before getting up and beating them.
They better have Starman for the teaser trailer
That or Superman's new main theme.
@@davidchittick6783 tf
They better not
I hope not.
Too expecting
I think having the star man song playing in the end credits is the best way to go and the finale being Superman flying away it fits perfectly for some reason
Man, that chumbawamba song was weirdly popular when it came out
Used in a lot of UK ads a few years back.
He should do starman not because twitter wants but because it just fits superman to a damn T😂.
At least do it for the trailer
that song sounds like it can be in shrek 💀 💀
Yeah! It sounds like all star!
@@monicadelgado5296 ong!
How am I just finding out that I get knocked down is actually called Tubthumping 😭
I was laughing SO HARD when you played some of the music! 😂

Rocketman. Not being the same man at home and literally shot into space in a rocket.
3:19 yes! That song for the trailer 🤣
Mf has to do it now🤣
Damn we got spoiled with Lex Luthor's introduction song
Whatever song Gunn chooses, it’ll become a very popular song
Why does star man fit so well with Superman they should put that song in the movie or trailer.
Yall don't know Gunn. He's more likely to put Ballroom Blitz in the movie than Star Man.
Also Gunn doesn't control the trailer.
I can kinda see it like if he's flying through the skies or whatever or if him or Mr tariffic are * goofing around and James always does a good job with his soundtracks and movies
This is good, but I still think johnny sins as lex luthor was fuckin hilarious
NO WE JUST HAVE SEEN SO MANY SUPERMAN EDITS THAT WE NEED IT NOW
As if James Gunn's taste in music wasn't the best part of GoTG
That only works for movies about criminals and rejects and Deadpool… not Superman
It ruined cinema forever tbh. Every film now wants to be guardians and add random ass 80s music in action scenes where it doesn't fit
@@Dhampire1976ruined cinema forever😂😂. Holy over exaggerating.

Or what
@@adrianvillafana9245 DC is forever dead.
@@adrianvillafana9245Or it will suffer at the box office.
It would be cool if they had that song. Starman. Gives All-Star Superman vibes
Nah there's a character called Starman already in DC.
@@blackwulf8793 I know that but those are 2 separate things. Plus I think JSA is alternate to the main universe

Ive been seeing Superman clips with star man used in the background for YEARS lol
The only song I will accept being played in this movie is Save Me by Remy Zero
Now if you want a 2000’s song for a Superman movie, you got to go with “Kryptonite” by 3 Doors Down
I'd love that
I actually thought Heroes by David Bowie would be best for the trailer. Especially for the “Gods shot above our heads” and “We can be heroes” lyrics.
Honestly I wouldn’t be mad if these songs were in the movie lol
I saw the rumor on Reddit from a DC X/Twitter fan account with a variant of the DC logo as its profile picture. I didn't think it was from Snyder fanboys, but I didn't believe it because the post claimed, "it was heard on set, so it might be in the movie!"-which sounded pretty dubious to me.
I always envisioned Starman playing on the beginning of the movie with the Kents with a montage as time passes and Clark grows up and seeing the Kents reaction to everytime Clark awakens a new power like those family footage movies
I think it would be better in a montage of him building his career as a hero doing heroic acts around metropolis, or him defeating some villain maybe
Mr. Sunday Movies was so early to the Tubthumping meme. They made one for Titanic and now it's everywhere like years later
Tubthumping was recently used in the teaser for Y2K, and I'm familiar with that song thanks to the marketing of Home Alone 3.

Can't say the same about the second song tho. 😂
those snyder fans are jokes😂

Yes , they are
Not Snyder-fans, Snyder-cultists. There's a difference.
Not really, they got the Snydercut, held onto their wallets and refused to fund the Hamadaverse which included Gunns Tss. Now WBD is in MASSIVE debt. They should've listened to their fans.

Superframe had a fanmade greenlantern trailer using that song. It works for him as well.
I think the Starman thing originated from this TikTok of a Superman cosplayer doing small kind acts, which somehow spawned into memes
i can see the Chumbawamba song being used in the big battle in the third act. " I get knocked down, I get up again and nothing's gonna keep me down". *as Superman flys at the villain and punches him in the face* " I AM A MAN"! XD
Kryptonite from 3 Doors Down? Now THAT would be on the nose lol

3:45 i knew u were about to say get laid 😂😂😂😂
Bro the pronunciation of Tubthumping killed me 😂
I GET KNOCKED DOWN NOW I GET UP AGAIN
I come back to this video every time I feel down. This never fails to make me laugh. I have no idea why I find this video so ridiculously funny!! 😂❤
That song would’ve been perfect for Guardians 3. It could’ve been in the credits and the Star Lord Stuff
Guys, it's obviously gonna be Many Men (Wish Death) by 50 Cent
Starman is Literally Superman IN MUSIC FORM
That song is something Gunn would use honestly. A Superman movie? It's not a Superman movie it's a James Gunn Superman movie.
I like John Williams, Superman theme
“Bad news for Chumbawumba.” I doubt anyone will get that reference lol.
James Gunn Superman looks like the Dollar General version of Henry Cavill
Maybe it’s because both actors look like Superman you bozo
I wouldn’t mind the the movies end montage leading to the credits playing starman up to the title screen😁
Section 107 of the Copyright Act gives examples of purposes that are favored by fair use: *“criticism, comment,* news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, [and] research.”
So this video shouldn't get copyrighted, if it does Chris show them the text above (which is the literal law).
It's from those Superman memes
You got Superman (it’s not easy) right there
That would be the perfect teaser trailer
i would love if starman started playing in the end credits
The hate James is getting for this movie is just unreal 😂💔
I'm just scared the whole time when watching Superman that I'm gonna be going "that's the way it is because it's James Gunn" instead of actually being immersed and watching the film.

Correction in the title: It's Snyder fans not DC fans
That song is in the Superman memes. It’d be great to see
Chumbawamba walked so Smash Mouth could fly.
Now I hope this is the song he puts just to troll the haters.
I think we all know that Waiting for Superman by Daughtry should be the song used for this movie. I think that song was supposed to be in Man of Steel initially.
I will say one weird thing about this troll rumor, it somehow got me interested into listening to Chumbawamba
James Gunn is just trying to throw us off, yall! Chumbawumba confirmed!
I wish James Gunn used the John Williams Superman theme
i can see the starman song being in the trailer
I actually love to see starman in the movie
Meanwhile Eminem talking about Christopher:
it should play when superman is at his lowest point and gets up and saves the day.
My guess eater Starman or We Are the Champions😊
they should uses the classic superman theme from the 1978 movie
No
why does Chumbawamba have Baby Thanos on their cover
Its not the Snyderbros that are bullying Gunn! Its the Superman fans who want it! Starman perfectly incapsulates the hopeful and optimistic nature of Superman. "There's a starman waiting in the sky.

Gives me Shrek vibes 😂
Superman is my most anticipated movie of 2025
The post credit scene should be this song as a joke
Pretty sure Snyder has had endless despicable and mean things said about him for absolutely no reason.
I think it’s just a meme
I wanted Kryptonite by 3 doors down
Starman plus an image of Superman has been memed for awhile now especially on Instagram. It’s a funny meme and it would be nice to see it in the movie/trailer
The fact that Gunn will likely use am actual soundtrack and not a traditional score shows this guy is just a one trick pony
They have to have Starman in the new Superman!
starman needs to be in the movie its literally the superman song now after all the tiktoks
Chumbawamba- Tubthumping is literally uses lyrics and music from All Star by Smash Mouth.
Dude they want the Superman to become a goofy stupid movie smh 🤦🏻 that's what's gonna happen
Well it was just used in the Y2K trailer. Maybe they got their info mixed up lol
They have to use Starman! It’s just like the meme
The cross play suits look amazing..imagine on the big screen ...can not wait!
Smash Mouth - All Star is another gold
