The real quick shot of the stunt-man "taking off" in the diary has to be seen....if they can get the rest of the flying aspects just as dead on...I will believe a man can fly.

i'll bet ya that will be done CG.

What i want to know is ... Is John Williams doing the music, and will it be an extention of the chassic Superman themes?

looks familiar.

very Donner-ific, can't wait!

That is true about Reeve and I have faith in Bryan Singer (and I don't agree with those that claim that Routh is too young for obvious reasons) but not so much as to still dread wether or not lightning will strike twice regarding the big screen casting of Supes.

It was too quick for me to tell. What *did* interest me in that video diary is the amount of screen caps they had of the first movie which they seem to be using as references.

Agreed! It looked perfect.

Double !

OK, I guess I've been out of the loop on this one.

I knew they were starting with it (finally), but I thought it was a 'reimagining' of the story, not a continuation of Superman I & II. Am I wrong? And if it is a continuation, why would they bother refilming something like the ship crash... couldn't they just use existing footage (for flashbacks, whatever)?

Is there a web site somewhere that'll explain to me just what the plan is for this? Those pictures now have me officially intrigued.

i still think the best lex luthor would have been the guy from face/off

Harve Presnell?

They didn't.

no idea if thats his name.... but yeah...


i mean i know kevin spacey has the persona and psychoticness to be the villian but still.... the guy from face/off had the look

the guy who played dietrich hassler....

here he is

I liked the way Neo flew in the Matrix sequels. Hopefully they do it like that.

I was making an unfunny joke. I'll think before I do it again.

oh, they've already gone the animation route... in Superman IV.

oh um.....

Well, after the latest news, can't say I'm excited about this film. First came the awful casting of Routh and Barton. Now Singer, after saying he wants to pick the story up after Superman 2, is throwing the story all out of whack.

This comes from latinoreview.com:

"While Superman has been gone on a 6 year round trip to Krypton to see if he is indeed the last son of that doomed planet, Lois Lane has moved on with her life. Lois Lane now has a five-year-old son and the father is no other than Richard White, played by James Marsden. When Superman returns Lois and Richard are engaged to be married."

God Almighty, one can only hope this isn't true. Singer says he wants to pick the movie up right after Superman 2. Well, so much for that, or a story that makes any sense.

Oh boy!!! Hopefully this is just an incorrect spoiler report.

This was actually the spoilerized news on page 2.
And it's not Mischa Barton as Lois. It's Kate Bosworth.

Unless you watch Australian soap operas, I don't think anyone has a right to judge Mr. Routh yet.

i could easily reiterate some things you've said to me in response to the speculative nature of my criticisms of Episode III. but I won't. or maybe I just did.
