Oh hell yeah! 😆

what a waste

i just can't believe what this guys from dc have done, cuz they just screwed my dreams of seeing the best superhero movie since chris reeve's superman, i've seen movies like spiderman 2, the matrix reloaded, and i thought man! when they show superman it's gonna be even better and more exciting... but now we now brian whatever his name is" the guy who couldn't make a great x-men movie is gonna end with the expectation of watching a great supèrman return. i think i'll go out and rent superman 2 and pretend that's the new one. 😘

THEY SHOULD GET tOM cRUISE AS THE NEXT sUPERMAN! He gets all these cool chicks to go out with cos he's rich so why not? Mission impossible? dont think so!

Yeah this crap is going to be a Spiderman 2 rip off..
hmm Perry White's son is dating Lois Lane...
VERY Original there Bryan Singer.. I only seen that in Spiderman 2 you ****ing loser!

I really hate everything this idiots done to this movie....

Hope he drops dead, and this movie never gets off the ground!
The character of Superman deserves better then the bullcrap Singer is making... 😎

i just could not agree more than that stinky bottoms... hope they see what people think about this guy and the "movie" he wants to be the "welcomeback" for who i believe is one of the most known superhero characters in the world, for which is important than a better filmmaker than brian singer takes over this sh*tty plan, just like sam raimi did bringing the comic out to real life.

People Please . hoolywood aint crazy enough to ruin a legacy.

here are the actual casting for the movie

Superman/Clark Kent: Brandon Routh
Lois Lane: Kate Bosworth
Lex Luthor: Kevin Spacey
Perry White: Hugh Laurie
Richard White: James Marsden
Jimmy Olsen: Sam Huntington
Martha Kent: Eva Marie Saint
Stephan Bender: 15 year old Clark Kent
Noel Neill: (Character name as yet unknown

rumor says that they might pull out brandon routhe as Super man and use Tom Welling (which would be my personal choice and the logical one but..)because of the people complaining and being disapointed at their new pick. its true everyone wants to see welling continue the legacy but...
they say its 99 percent faulse because they start filming Superman Returns in like two weeks and wellng is still filming the end of Smallvilles fourth season so kinda impossible that he'll be ready in that time.plus smallville is filmed in Canada and S-Man Returns if being filmed in Australlia. but man i sure hope they find a way for Welling to play the part.

once againn I agree

i think so too, your choice must have the biggest percentage of what people think is the best one. and speaking about the time of delivery for this movie... c'mon they have only a year to make this happen? i don't think this is enough for a movie with such expectations in the whole world..... i still don't believe they can do a great film with the clock ticking against them, hopefuly i'm wrong! oh and you say hollywood won't ruin a legacy..... watch hulk or daredevil, catwoman, then... tell me if we're wrong. 🙄

welling should not be superman imo.. he's too boyish...

bosworth is a horrible casting choice imo... why not beckinsale?

laurie is a great actor, but i'm undecided as to whether he can do perry...

mr. negitive.

i am a huge superman fan...

smallville is the story of superman growing up, not superman as an adult, having welling is not a good idea imo... he's not mature enough imo...

and bosworth? seriously? bringing teri hatcher would have been better...

Welling boyish?!?

the guys 29 and do you remeber him in the Season 2 Episode 4 RED and Season 3 Episode 1 Exile when hes on red kryptonite and he starts acting hard and pimping those suits.
+ hes forced to play a younger character if given the opportunity to play an older character im sure hed do a good job at that.

as appossed to brandon routhe, a nobody who they chose for the role just because he went to a hollywood party dressed as Superman/Kent?!?
Please!

and about Hollywood ruining legacys
Daredevil, Elektra & Catwoman arent legacys

daredevil was pretty good
the other two were garbage but far from ever being legacys.

Superman is a name known by all children and adults no matter what age.
you ask a kid whos daredevil or elektra and they might not know
now you ask them if they know Superman ...and trust me they know.

thats not only a legacy...Thats a Legend!!!

age is not a factor, look at james marsden. welling imo is boyish in the sense that he's a bit too perfect, no rough edges, not very... manly...

he's a great young clark don't get me wrong... but as a fully grown superman? i'm not so sure...

?????

my mistake... elektra, daredevil and catwoman are not legacys, and i won't even discuss about daredevil being good, maybe i'll start a new thread, but you can't say hulk wasn't "smashed to s#it, although i agree superman is a legend.
and about clark/superman i don't think they can find someone as perfect as christopher reeve to play that roll, i'm not saying tom welling looks just like alex's superman with the rough edges, welling has a wide big mouth, his nose is too wide, and he doesn't look too strong, but even so, i think; from all the possible choices like brandon, nicolas cage, that guy from punkd, and the rest, welling is still the best choice.
pr1983 says welling is too boyish? have you seen that guy brandon?? i honestly don't believe he looks more mature than welling. 😮‍💨

i never said routh was the right choice either...

the ONLY way i could see it working with welling is to finish smallville and use the last episode to show clark becoming superman, then maybe...

and welling looks nothing like alex ross' superman...

when did i said that?

the real problem besides the director and part of the cast is that they won't get the real superman like they did before

i was dissapointed with the choice of bosworth for lois lane,wtf?,i would have loved to see someone like amy acker or bring in erica durance,i like the choice of superman and the director but kevin spacey as lex come on,i also think it would be cool if the smallville cast got to make cameos

"and welling looks nothing like alex ross' superman..."

Alex Ross' Superman sucks in my opinion. I hate how he draws characters. It's funny b/c they look real, but then again certain features look so fake. At times they look even more fake that the comics, in the sense that their bodies are too square, and their faces look like the age that they should be retiring. Plus, and this is a big plus, Wonder Woman looks like a guy. Point is, if he's going to try and make them life-like, at least make them of someone in the suit that has definition, not a square body.

"the ONLY way i could see it working with welling is to finish smallville and use the last episode to show clark becoming superman, then maybe..."

You are correct, but you are wrong about the 'maybe' part. Welling plays an excellent Clark, whether young or old. You just have to see and realize the times that he suits up and puts on his Kal face and goes to work. Not when he's playing the role of a high school student. Everytime something happens that he needs to use his powers, or save someone, you can see THE Superman in the making. Plus, his age is good in the sense that he'd be able to do many more Superman movies after (since he looks so young, yet old at the same time). They should just wait till this season's over and start the movie with him searching the globe, (prior to him actually putting on the suit), and then half way through he becomes Superman. Probably the thing that pisses me off more than them not using Welling is how they are continuing the story. Taking off after the 1st 2? Come on, its a new face, a new age,they should have a new beginning, not continuing it. I think that will hinder the movie more than the cast. But all in all I can't wait for the movie to come out as I hope it will be better than the previous Comic Book Movies that have been made............My 2 Cents...
BTW this further confirms my statements...Hope you enjoy...

its an opinion, not fact, so imo i am completely correct...

good one scott summers

he he he!!! i like you already scott, i was about to tell the jamaican guy that i respect his opinion, but when most people agree about something being "normal", "ok", the "average", "standard", "correct"; then you mujst think that people who thinks otherwise are not correct and am not saying they wrong, just think different, although sometimes most people are wrong about something, anyway, alex ross is considered by many as the guy who capture superman the best anyone else has ever done it. plus, you're talking about definition.... ok, i was talking about the face, and.... man! of course certain features are gonna look fake. 🙄
