Just kidding. I loved it. It was a thing of beauty.
You know that part when Spacey walks out of the bathroom, brushing his teeth and says, "Lois Lane?" with the toothbrush still in his mouth?--that was awesome! I liked it better than DH.
Don't worry, we're sure to spot Faith first. She's like this cleavagy slut-bomb walking around 'Ooh, check me out, I'm wicked-cool, I'm five-by-five.'

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Cash, that was one of my favorite parts!! And I loved how they had Lois i still asking how to spell words!
Joe like Kate Bosworth BETTER than Margo Kidder. And I STG, there were times when Brandon Roush looked and sounded JUST LIKE Christopher Reeves. It was SPOOKY.
Of course, I got Joe the special edition so we watched the movie and then about 1459 hours of "The Making Of..."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I was unmoved by Superman Returns but then I've always found Supes kind of meh.

My biggest problem with SR (I rewatched this weekend as well) was that Kate Bosworth was too young. Routh probably isn't that much older than her, but for some reason Supes looking young doesn't ping me as much as a woman who was supposed to have completed college, established herself as a key reporter for a major city newspaper, and has a child who is five, in that order.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Totally agree, though it (surprisingly) didn't actively bother me while I was watching it.
I was initially concerned about Routh because I didn't know if he could carry the film, but he really impressed me.

I would agree wholeheartedly with that.

Me, NSM. I thought he looked a good Superman, but he seemed a little wooden to me. Still, I enjoyed the movie and loved Kitty dumping the extra crystals out of the helicopter. Hee.

I think Superman is a bit wooden.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Not in the comics he isn't. Christopher Reeves wasn't wooden, nor was Dean Cain.

I was a bit woden for Dean Cain.
