Not everyone gets the chance to go to the cinema to watch everything they would like to. I don't get to see most films until the DVD comes out, or I download them.

just been to see it this morning 00:05 then 12:30 lol what can i say its been well worth following this project over last year.

Superman is back, not once did i look at screen and think thats brandon routh or thats kevin spacey all i saw was Superman and LL. The highest point of tension for me even though friends picked the boeing scene. ADMIN EDIT - (Russ) please do not post spoilers without warnings, thanks

Great movie, & a welcome return to the big screen for the Man of Steel :tu:


Good cast, especially the always excellent Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor.

Story's good, great action & effects, some cool scenes for Superman to use his powers.


One thing I didn't really like though (spoiler):

Spoiler: 
The whole "Clark/Superman is actually the father of Lois' little boy" plot twist. Didn't work for me. Felt very unneccessary, not needed at all. Also, I don't see how he could've got Lois pregnant. [ go Google "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex" ]. OK, maybe he got her pregnant when he was without his powers during Superman 2, but there was never any implication then that they ever did anything IIRC, and when else could they have done so.

Just got back from seeing it - absolutely fantastic! Brandon Routh really channeled Christopher Reeve imo, and even the kid with the stereotypical American childs haircut didn't annoy me like they usually do :)

Oh, and I have to disagree with you Mick - I thought it was very clever and didn't see it coming at all :)

Spoiler: 
Must have been when he was powerless during Superman 2. Only time it could've happened. If he slept with Lois at any other time, she'd have died.

What do you base that on? Superman is clearly able to be gentle enough to deal with humans without hurting them. Who's to say that he can't be gentle enough in love making?

Spoiler: 
Superman being unable to have sex is a fairly common theory.

Sexual intercourse would involve certain involuntary things he would presumably have no control over.

Although it's a bit old (Pre-Crisis), & no longer completely fits the current continuity re his powers etc., "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex" explains more on the idea of Superman & sex: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_of_...man_of_Kleenex, http://www.rawbw.com/~svw/superman.html
