Was never a huge comic book guy, was never a cartoon guy, but for some reason, I get super pumped for super hero movies. For those wondering if there were was anyone who liked Superman Returns, I am that person. Well, I wouldn't say I loved it, but I definitely didn't hate it like the rest of the world seemed to. I thought Routh was fine and reminded me of Reeve. He looked like him, he sounded like him. Bosworth and the kid were weak, but I got over that pretty fast.
The airplane scene was sweet, the rooftop robbery scene was cool and I liked the final sequence as well. I didn't hate the story either. Like I said, I wasn't a huge comic guy so I never opened a single Superman comic book, so I have no idea of the inner details of his character. All I know about Clark Kent and Superman is from the Reeve movies.
Keep in mind, Nolan is just producing this, he's not directing it, so it won't have the same feel as the latest Batman flicks, so don't get your hopes up for that.
