I still can't believe Russell Crowe is going to be in a Superman movie.
I really hope the script is decent. Otherwise, we'll have another Prometheus on our hands.
Although every Zack Snyder movie so far has had amazing visuals with a weak script.
What the hell? Prometheus is a great film. It's not becoming a thing to act like this has a terrible script. GAF can be such bullshit.
It's kind of mediocre. Great visuals though.

0_o I forgot all about that show, good memories!
Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only Superman fan that can't stand the Lois and Clark tv show and never liked Cain in the role :\
People hate Superman Returns for the shit plot and the terrible costume, but I think the most offensive aspect was how they ruined Lois. Not only giving her a kid (which that whole thing was dumb in itself) but just the way they tempered and toned down her character. Terrible.
Oh by far the worst Lois Lane ever put on film/tv etc I have no f-ing clue what Singer was thinking with that. She was a f-ing bitch to Clark. Felt like she basically had a stick up her ass the whole film.
To be fair Clark kinda skipped town for what 12 years. Would make sense for her to be pissed.
The number one failing of Returns was Lex luthor as the villian and a recycling of the first movies plot .
He was gone for five years. Which then reminds me of another ridiculous plot hole that I remember hurting my brain trying to comprehend. Clark disappears for some family sabbatical at the same time Superman is gone. Clark shows back up at the Daily Planet after five years and no one questions why he was gone for so long. How would he even coast right into his old job again after that amount of time? And then no one even bothers to question why Clark shows up and suddenly Superman returns the same day? These are ace reporters for fucks sake. The Daily Planet is the most prestigious media institution in the DC Universe and these idiots can't put two and two together.
As for Lex, stupid to bring him back as the major villain. But I didn't have a problem with Spacey's portrayal as a lot of people did. It was second in live action only behind Michael Rosenbaum on Smallville.

How can he be gone for 5 years when its clearly a 10 or 12 year old son ?
At the same time even 5 years is a long time. Tell you what , skip out on your gf for 5 years and see how happy she is with you when you come back.... oh and knock her up before you leave.
I certianly liked Spacy as Luthor and wouldn't have minded Luthor in the movie but he shouldn't have been the focus. He should have just be in the bakcround trying to put together the superman / clark kent deal and saved him for another movie as the big main villian. Mabye having him pull the strings of another villian.
Like what if mogul came to earth and was rulling the world when superman came back
I still can't believe Singer did the real estate scheme again. I can understand loving Donner's movies, but damn.
Superman Returns was a waste of time and money for everyone involved.
Yea WB's owes Dm and I money. We whored ourselves out for that movie on GAF. What a waste.

I hated it. Ha-ted.
Perhaps I haven't been vocal enough here about my livid, fireborn hatred for Cain?
Biggest pussy ever. I could have beat his ass.

Wait, why was he at Cavill's premiere? What is he plotting?

What blasphemy is this? People are hating on lois and clark? Wah!!
Dean Cain... Dean Cain.
LOL when i was growing up it was the best show EVER. Admittedly, it hasn't aged well but what super hero series from that age did?

I'd rather watch the short lived Flash seriesI don't recall anything else on at the time... it was your only choice for a Superman fix. I chose to just watch my Superman dvds over and over hah
How old were you? Maybe it didn't bother you as much cause you were younger. That shit wouldn't even last a full season today.
Still it was Cain and will always be Cain that turned me off the show.
EXCLUSIVE: Hans Zimmer, who worked on all three films in Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy, is set to reteam with the filmmaker once again, as Warner Bros. and director Zack Snyder have tapped him to score their Superman pic MAN OF STEEL. In addition to BATMAN BEGINS, THE DARK KNIGHT and this summer’s THE DARK KNIGHT RISES, Zimmer worked with Nolan on INCEPTION for which he received an Oscar nomination. He has been nominated for nine Oscars and previously won for Disney’s THE LION KING. John Williams was nominated for an Oscar for creating the iconic theme to Richard Donner’s original SUPERMAN in 1978. MAN OF STEEL will mark the first Snyder-directed pic on which the helmer hasn’t worked with composer Tyler Bates, who scored DAWN OF THE DEAD, 300, WATCHMEN and SUCKER PUNCH.
Shit could be epic. I just hope it's not tonally similar to his Batman themes.
