EARLY Discussion of Superman Returns

I've seen this movie, and I thought it was pretty good. Kevin Spacey was terrific as Lex Luthor, and Brandon Routh was pretty good as the man of steel. Of course, my biggest concern was Kate Bosworth, I've seen a bunch of films with her as a blonde, but now, she went to brunette in this movie. Well, no matter, I already know she's just received a Worst Supporting Actress Razzie nom, as I expected her to.

I am so mad at this movie! No, don't tell me whose fault it was: Everyone is to blame!   I am a big fan of the man of steel, I grew up reading his comics, watched him on TV in black and white, enjoyed the first movie, and yawned during the sequels.   This sequel just plain sucks!       

  No doubt, they tried to make it into a chick movie, but they must have used male writers, because even as a chick movie it sucks.   In fact, Superman is so non-macho and politicaly correct, he comes off as a wimp!  I thought it was universaly known that women are not attracted to wimps?  

 As an adventure movie, it is slow and dull. You want "Special Effects"? Don't look for it here! I've seen better graphics in "B" movies of the '60's!

  Just one example: Why was the shuttle mounted on a passenger plane?  I seem to have missed the explanation.   I was under the impression that the Shuttle was transported on a specially reinforced and heavily braced Boeing 747 transporter.  Am I wrong to think they normally empty the fuel tanks before they move it?    When a film's physical plot devices are this unbelievable, the movie fails to induce the audience to suspend belief.  Once this happens, "Hollywood Magic" can't save it, and the movie bombs.

  I actually paid money to see this movie!   My girlfriend hated it, (which is proof it is not a chick movie BTW)  and as we left, we told people in line to avoid it!  

 

Originally posted by Sanndman228715 On Rotten Tomatoes it's getting very good reviews, several critics have said that they think Kevin Spacey makes a better Lex Luthor than Gene Hackman ( And I liked Hackman's Lex). Also getting good notices are Frank Langella, Parker Posey, and (For the most part) Brandon Routh. The big question mark seems to be Kate Bosworth. Still, I can't wait to see it.

Don't forget, James Marsden, who's known for playing Cyclops in the three X-Men movies, the first two Bryan Singer directed. Anyway, the Lex Luthor played by Genen Hackman, well, Lex had hair, in the Superman cartoon series, lex was actually bald. They did the right thing having Kevin Spacey go bald for the role as Lex. I still think it will get a Razzie nom, but only one, which will go to Kate Bosworth, either for Worst Actress or Worst Supporting Actress.

Here's it the new poster for it:

Take a look at this pic of Kate Bosworth, who plays Lois Lane. Just looking at this picture reminds me of Katie Holmes!

I'll go see the movie, but I think Kate Bosworth will definitely get a Razzie nod for Worst Supporting Actress for 2006, alright. They should also bring back Worst New Star, cause if they do, they should nominate that guy, Brandon Routh, for that. But I still think Kevin Spacey will be really good playing Superman's nemesis, Lex Luthor. Plus, like I said, Warner Bros. did the right thing choosing Bryan Singer to direct this film and not McG.

Hello??!!! Why the hell is there a new Superman movie??!! Have you seen the guy that will play Superman? He is an ugly MOFO!! Come on nobody can take Reeve's place! And how come that can't get Tom Welling to put on the suit? I am still waiting for that. Gosh he is so hot!
