articles.news.aol.com/movies/article.adp?id=20060316070509990002That was nice of Mrs. Reeve. You know, I'm not a huge Superman fan. I mean, I like him and all, but he's not the first hero I'll turn to. Batman's more interesting. But I'm looking forward to this film, and I hope it's worth the title character. The only thing that concerns me is the ressurecting of Jor-El. After Oliver's post-mortem performance in Sky Captain I'm sure it can be done....but I hope it's done well.

That was a touching story.
Superman is my favorite hero not because he is almost indestructible, but because he cares. He's not fueled by rage, guilt, or thrills, he does what he does because he wants to help people. That really appeals to me for some reason. And I think Reeves played that perfectly IMO. I am excited about this film and hope that they can pull it off without it being cheesy or boring. My only concern is that they're going to use slapstick (like in the originals) I never liked that.
And if they make a sequel, I think It's about time Superman fought some of his "Super Villains" Maybe if people saw Superman struggle like other heroes they wouldn't bash him so much. Plus those fight scenes would be awesome.

I mean, he's the exception to the "nice guys finish last" rule, and as such he's got a demeanor around him that I really enjoy. I don't buy his comic books often...but you know, I honestly don't know why I don't buy them more. Maybe this 1 Year Later thing'll be a decent time to jump on board. Amen.

Looking forward to seeing it. But will always have Christopher Reeves in mind. Hope the movie does the others justice. Smallville's pretty good, if anyone's into that on TV.

Just remember i always though of George Reeves from the TV show to be Superman that was before the movie with Christopher. Like the title states the Torch is being passed and if is a good movie then people will think of him as Superman.

It would have been really bizarre if the new actor playing Superman had a last name of Reeves.

Smallville's pretty good, if anyone's into that on TV. I've only seen a handful of episodes, and frankly I hate it. That guy is not Superman, he's a freaking wimp. All he seems to do is cry and look constantly confused. He just doesn't seem to have the qualifications as Earth's protector. Another thing about the show I hate is chloe, she has no reason to be on the show.

But as a man, Superman is a really good, nice guy. Sometimes people see that as wimpy. I don't know. I know he would do something with guts....such as post a picture on a web site of himself! Badabing!
