Brandon Routh or Christopher Reeve?

I'd have to agree that it's more than just the hair... Routh (at least in my opinion) looks very much like Reeve.

Anyway, as to the actual topic. It's hard to say this early, but Christopeher Reeve has and always will be Superman to me. Even if Routh ends up doing a fantastic job.

Here here, how true 🙂

chirtopher reeve IS superman. it's hard to undo that after 4 movies. it's not like batman... 5 movies, 4 actors. when you mention batman to me now, i picture bale. after superman returns, if routh does a good job -- rephrase that... an exemplary job, i might see him as superman.

Talk about not knowing which way to go.
I always figured the internet to be a fairly reliable source of information, if you know where to look...but apparently, even this stumps the net.

Depending on which website you go to, it's either George Reeve or Reeves (some have both!). The preponderance seems to be Reeve, however, plus I checked with an independent source.

It is Reeve, singlular, just like Chris' last name. In fact, when "Superman" came out in '78, there was some dispelled speculation that they were related because of having the same last name.

Well, blow me down...

I just watched an episode from the ol' TV show, "The Adventures of Superman." And, by george, it is George Reeves (plural).

Kudos to you, roughrider. BTW, I am having my "independent source" shot before midnight.

well... after seeing for the first time the trailer of "superman returns" mi idea of routh a bad attempt of superman just grew bigger, and he looks nothing like CR, he's got wider nose, bigger mouth, and his face looks nothing noble, plus his body should be stronger if he ever thought playing supes, CR didn't need those new costumes with extra latex(whatever they put inside), his body just look good naturally

CHRISTIAN BALE!

......is Batman

lol

Routh to me looks like a morbid attempt to cash in on reeve's legacy...

reeve was a nigh on perfect superman for the time...

Well I have to wait and see before deciding.

CHRISTIAN BALE!

😆

batman

CHRISTIAN BALE!

Christopher Reeve will always be Superman

Superman

Reeve is Christopher, Reeves is George.

And Reeve is still Superman. An imitation is never better than the real thing.

Routh is S not Reeve (2006)
