Offical, here's the actor playing the Man of Steel.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>I've always thought Russell Crowe would be good.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Dean Cain should have taken it home, he whipped the roll in the TV series, but I guess he got sick of it. David Boranaz also could have done it, he's certainly got the hair for it. lol.</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I don't think I would have liked Crowe as Superman. To me, he just doesn't look cool without scruff.</div>

My reason is I think he has a resemblence to Alex Ross' Superman from Kingdom Come. (Well, that and he's a good actor.)</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Yeah, he does kind of resemble him except the Alex Ross Superman's face is a lot more chiseled.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>looks a little young IMO... oh, and your sig pics are still X's, Eric :P</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Yeah I don't know what the deal is.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Maybe, but if you wanted a chance of it being good, they had to make sure there was no big named actor attached to it, otherwise you'll be guaranteed an abundance of formulaic garbage (see Daredevil)</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Whether or not it's going to be formulaic garbage has much more to do with the people behind the scenes than in the scenes.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>An article off of slashdot said Singer wanted a young Clark Kent.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>I was referring to my sig actually.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Ummm...I can see 'em all fine. Btw, what's the one with the sword fighting from? It's not Naruto.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Ok, some people can see it, some can't I'm confused. lol. It's from FullMetalAlchemist.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It's all in how the movie is labelled. If it a blockbuster movie, it's already way behind the 8-ball. Superman is a blockbuster, the only thing that'll save it from being complete drudge is the fact it's a classic story (ie. already formulaic). Put a big star into the mix, and it just gets worse. That's when they try and fit to the star's "image" and try to reach an even bigger audience, which basically means a more bland, "good for everyone" type story. Yes, this is Superman and it's not like there's a completely original storyline, but if they try to appease both the fans of the comics AND the mass audience, you get a watered-down movie. There's hope since Singer did a pretty decent job with the first X-Men and a great one with the second and the fact they're not going with big-named actors here. And big-named actors have a HUGE effect on the "behind the scenes" crap. The Punisher would easily have gotten another $20 million dollar budget if Vin Diesel was in it. More money = more expectations = more pressure from the studio. That's never a good thing if you want a "good" movie</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Isn't this one supposed to only take the first two into consideration for it's storyline? Kind of an origin-to-now type after the second?</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It</div>

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It's supposed to come in after the 1st two movies with Reeve's as if Superman has been away for a while and is just returning.</div>

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>A/S/L?!!?!!? OMG LOL</div>
