I went on another site and read the whole history behind Superman V or Superman Lives. Man, it was horrible! Tim Burton and all those other hacks would have ruined Superman if their movie was ever filmed. They didn't want him to fly, a black suit, an organic suit that gave him powers, pseudo-Matrix story, Lexiac (Braniac fused with Luthor as a giant slug), giant spider robots (Wild Wild West), Superman being killed by liquid kryptonite, Doomsday being played by Hulk Hogan, Doomsday looking like an elite from Halo, etc. Just Horrible!
I don't favor the new suit or Routh (Jim Caviezel would be better), but at least he knows what he is doing and isn't changing Superman like Tim Burton would have. Singer's changes aren't really that bad if you look into the development hell of Superman V.
That being said, I still don't know how good Superman Returns will be, but at least I know it's in good hands.
