Ancestry-wise, Reeve looks to have a bit of German blood in him, while Routh looks to have more of Italian blood in him (mixed with some some English/white to even him out).

Does anyone really doubt that this movie is going to be one of the greatest comic book adaptations ever?
BTW, Kevin Spacey and Lex Luthor is the greatest casting job since Patrick Stewart as Professor X.

I keep seeing people make this point, and I fail to see any resemblence. He looks and sounds nothing like Reeve except for the fact that he has dark hair and is dressed up like Superman.

"Look, Up in the Sky! The Amazing Story of Superman" on A&E (6/12, 8-10pm)
This looks to be an awesome special and retro on the Superman lore. I will try to watch it, but def. taping it.

Just got done watching "Look, Up in the Sky, Story of Superman" on A&E, and it was pretty good. I got chills in the Smallville/Reeve segment. Also enjoyed the sneak peak at some of the SR footage, and test shots. It was humorous to see Jon Peters says that for 12 years he had wrong about the next Superman film, and that Singer/Daugherty/Harris's approach was the right one.

Just saw the documentary, pretty good. It definitely solidified that to me, Christopher Reeve will always be Superman. But I absolutey cannot wait for Superman Returns.
