I am a die-hard Superman fan, and my reverence of him stems not only my sheer envy of his physical skills (flight, invulnerability and superhuman strength: the only powers I'd ever want), but because he was raised with a strong sense of morals and ethics and refuses to violate that code.<BR/><BR/>Needless to say, I saw <I>Superman Returns</I> the first day it was out -- in IMAX and 3-D, to boot. The hours leading up to showtime were the closest experience to Christmas Eve I've felt since I was a kid.<BR/><BR/>Having said that -- yes, I share your disappointment in the movie. I'd seen most of this before, recycled from the first movie, down to Luthor's plan to corner the market on real estate. I could've done without the "S.O.S." (Son of Superman) element as well.<BR/><BR/>I hope that Mr. Singer and his screenwriters are paying attention to the feedback from you, me and other fans, and will populate the next movie with plenty of action and a foe worthy to go knuckle-to-knuckle with the Man of Steel.<BR/><BR/>Doomsday, anyone?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958258311103006006.post-3100696354008516872007-01-09T00:28:00.000-06:002007-01-09T00:28:00.000-06:00Hey, it's not just the kick, but the deliverance. ...Hey, it's not just the kick, but the deliverance. I mean, the whole Liu Kang fight with Sub-Zero, just incredible....Anyway, About Superman Returns, I completely agree with you. Not only did he not tell her, but you don't think he knew? This guy can hear a pin drop at a Metallica concert, see thru walls AND has microscopic vision, WTF can't he see/hear? And the Kryptonite continent? WTF? I mean in Kingdom Come, they mention that he is no longer effected by Kryptonite, but that's after he's been on the planet for like 60 years! And, don't you think Routh was still too skinny for Superman? Did Supes start dieting? Also, I'm tired of Lex being portrayed as kind of a campy funny villain. I want to see the guy who is cold, greedy, uncaring, serious, and bald. Eh, maybe I'm asking for too much....Fuck it, just gimme a good kick...lol!Ahzteckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12911509204261900034noreply@blogger.com
