You realize that there is much much more to a great film than special effects right? Because of people who think special effects are the single most important element in a film and that alone will carry it we end up with films like Chronicles of Riddick, Van Helsing, Sky Captain, Son of the Mask, etc., etc.

You are absolutely right. However, a comic book movie should have great special effects. If we want to see a cheesy drama we'll watch million dollar baby, but we don't. We want to see a comic book movie and if the special effects aren't special it will suck.
I agree, the special effects in a comic based film should and need to be nothing short of amazing of course this varies from time to time depending on the film and story. Such as in a Punisher film where the film(s) isn't very heavy on CGI. I never said we need alot more drama in our comic book films, I was merely getting my point across that effects aren't the entire film.
even when the sfx of the first two superman movies are not as good as today's, most people think those movies are great, two of the best that can compite and even better movies like spiderman, blade, x-men, the hulk, batman, oh and sincerely, a person whose arguments are based on insults..... has a poor judgement of good and bad.
This movie will suck. Routh is so dumb looking it's not even funny. It's filmed in Australia. ?? And it's by the Director from X-Men, a marginal superhero movie with bad special effects.
When I first watched Smallville, I thought it was dumb. But Tom grew on me. Now I watch it every week. The one where he played a guy from the 1950's sold me on him as Superman. With his hair slicked back, he was a shoe in. I'm really dissapointed that they chose Routh and the hack director of X-Men.
teh same thing happened to me, although when christopher reeve died i didn't like welling for a while, but now i think he is the best choice a good director had.
i only hope this guy won't use the original theme from jhon williams, so the movie will be a complete s#it and we can all forget about it. then in 3 years we see the real one, the one most of us is waiting for.
It realy seems like they rushed into making this.
I would have at least waited to see how batman begins will do in the theaters before i would have even thought of another superman movie.
