A long time fan of Smallville and having grown up with the whole series of Superman movies, I'd been excited to hear of this movie. Over recent years we've seen many comic figures reappear on the silver screen, reinterpreted in such a way as to provide character dimension often absent inmovies produced throughout the 70's and 80's (even the early 90's). Take movies the likes of Van Helsing, The Hulk, and Batman Begins. These portray characters who are multi-faceted, often flawed - and most of all, believable. These are movies which successfully stripped away the 'plastic' glam of old and gave as movies of true depth.
Compare this with Superman Returns - a movie which essentially took all the cliches of old and wrapped them up in all new special effects. It even managed to throw both logic and simple physics out the window - since when did Clark wear glasses as a kid?
Should real fans have to suffer another dose of this, or at least demand a different director (Stephen Sommers)??

Quote - "dude u suck". Yup, here we have it ladies and gentlemen - an example of the inellectual capacity to which this movie aspires ...the masses of the average dimwit! I'm guessing the Hulk annoyed you because you found it difficult to comprehend??
