i didn't really like it that much. I guess the era of blockbuster summer movies is over.

Wow... to say kate hudson was a miscast is very very nice. I was thinking maybe hollywood is required to put a reeruned person in a major role by some law california had put in place.

Kate Bosworth, not Hudson.

Just saw it again, this time the IMAX 3D version.

Liked it even more the second time. The pacing didn't seem as slow, and I noticed things I didn't the first time through. It just seemed more coherent on the repeat viewing, and I don't know why.

The 3D scenes were fucking amazing. I don't know how they did it, but that's the wave of the future.

Saw it last night. I was unimpressed. Spacey played Lex very very well, but overall the story never really got rolling. Not what I was expecting from Singer. It was a good show.... but my expectations were higher. I thought for $350 zillion and the length of time in production it would be damn near knock-your-socks-off good....

[Sorta spoiler]The whole kryptonite island storyline was really weak too..... And they really pushed the Superman Jr. idea too much without any clear direction... They tried to make it so painfully obvious without anybody talking about it or even considering it.... [/Sorta spoiler]

And I had negative feelings for Lois. I'm not sure why, but I didn't like her. And I would have loved to see a Richard Pryor side comedy character too.....

Kate Bosworth didn't have that sassy attitude like Margot Kidder did, and it was like the girl next door trying to be tough and jaded

Maybe Superman Returns was a less committed attempt to capitalize off the success of Batman Begins. I thought that was the best of all the Batman movies.

I liked Spiderman II, too.

hahah....i hope that was a joke?? Although, Superman 3 did have its moments...I actually liked the Good Superman Vs. Bad Superman stuff in that flick.

Great cinematic storytelling. Very enjoyable. Even the beautiful and witty Mrs. FAX liked it!

Spacy is a great Lex Luther. Was the guy who played Lois' new boyfriend the same guy who played Cyclops?

Yes. James Marsden.

I thought it was great, too. The shuttle/airplane scene was awe-inspiring.

Bowser 07-02-2006 11:17 AM

Took my ten year old to see it, and we both enjoyed it. We are going to check it out in IMAX next.

I went and saw it on the IMAX. I like Routh, an Iowan, as Superman.
