If one of my friends called me up in order to tell me that the Superman movie is "awesome," I'd beat him over the head with the phone.

Oh.... it's a "her".....

Mah leet reading skillz strike again.

In that case: "Honey - I can't get a true picture of it over the phone. But let me tell you, I'm very excited about the new Superman movie. So how's about you come over?"

"I'll put on the Batman costume, and you can squish into your Wonder Woman outfit, and we'll have a sort of Marvel Comics theme night...

... in my bed!"

Ugh... That's horrible. I'm ashamed of myself.

I'm saving my money for Dead Man's Chest.  Which is cool because I have Dead Man's Walk on DVD.  I didn't care that much for Dead Man Walking, too preachy.

My favorite bit of trivia:
http://inhome.rediff.com/movies/2006/jun/28trivia.htm

Singer wanted to cast Jude Law to do General Zod. Why you couldn't just go get Terrance Stamp to do it again I don't know - the old man is holding up well.

Jude Law as General Zod. That woulda been a hoot. I think they shoulda had a cameo for Margot Kidder, as an old bag lady. That way she wouldn't have to act.

Saw Superman last night....overall pretty great movie, great cinematography, the guy that played Jimmy was great comic relief, and Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor was an excellent choice....cold hearted yet comical at the right moments.  

My favorite scene hands down was the Earthquake sequence..you'll know it when you see it.  The airplane scene seen in trailers was simply amazing down to the final sequence.  


And yes the original theme song was utilized many times, and it sounded amazing every time.  I give this movie a 4.75 out of 5 only because of a few predictable plot twists.


Also, the movie and power to the theater cut out halfway through the movie....right after the blackout scene...lets just say most of us in the audience were freaked out :huh but we scored a free movie pass out of it for maybe 2 mins of nuisance, so I'm not complaining!

Any suggestions on what to see next?

sufficiently cheesy. slept through half of it.

superman is irrelevent nowadays though, not flawed enough compared to spiderman, batman, and the X-men.

watching some guy in blue spandex, a red towel around his neck, and matching red underwear he wears on the OUTSIDE....

I think I'll pass...

For those of you who are just too "mature" or "sophisticated" to be caught dead watching a comic book movie let me say you'll miss a great story, with great acting, and some of the best special effects ever produced in a movie.

Great entertainment all around.

Superman, Batman, and Wonderwoman are from the DC comics line up.
