brandon routh on chuck showed he could act so i do blame the script and the directing they also made the bad decision to keep going with the bumbler clark kent without looking at the original, in the comics clark was a little clumsy but was a top reporter for a major metroplitan newspaper and strangely enough only the animated clark and dean cain have successfully portrayed this. christopher reeve portrayed superman as the real persona with clark as a disguise
Superman Returns had the potentional to be a good Superman movie the problem was it focused too much on romance instead of action that's why I believe it didn't do the business they hoped it would
They really should use Brandon Routh in the new one, I've seen recent pictures of him, he's the only actor today that really looks like Superman, he's older now ie. he''s lost the boyish look from Super Man Returns which is better for the Superman look, it's Superman, not Superboy...
i honestly dont get how he can wear tht suit under his clothes. tht huge heavy cape and those bulky boots. atleast the old suit was a little bit plossible. and the dude must burn through sclothes and glasses like hell.
@LDKBBAB What are you talking about. Superman has no secret ID. He's an alien from planet Krypton with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Having him try to live as a human undercover is ridiculous. You're fired.
I'm not looking forward to Zack Schneider's Superman. Brandon Routh may have been the best thing about Superman returns but I don't think the man who have us 300 is te right man to direct a Superman film.
Warner Bros should have gone after Sam Raimi!!!! He'd be the best proven director to be in charge of the reboot!
i've got shivers, maybe its the theme or maybe the scene, but this film is way underrated, i think it was a great beginning for an amazing future sequel. some people just didnt see it.
theyd better bring routh back! hes soooo superman its not even funny. i personally will not be able to see ANY other person as superman. i dont think a lot of other people will either.
Well it's the times... I don't really blame the producers. But to be honest if they wanted a good Superman they should've gone after Sam Raimi instead of Chris Nolan. Raimi's Spiderman is closer in spirit to Supes than Batman's ever been.
Superman is supposed to pack and supercompress his suit(kent) into a pouch in the back of his cape according to the original superboy/Man saga. Thats where he puts his suit. if he droped it everytime,that would be awkward everytime he wanted to be kent again,hed have to go home and get afresh one. plus , i could see him getting into a elevator shaft...but an elevator and then go up thru what..?? the ceiling?,the roof? they did'nt treat this film with enough respect ,tho Brandon was great in it!
@montelee coz ppl wanna see superman action and not the trivial things like how he keeps his Clark Kent costume. putting that in the movie just makes superman a REAL GEEK.
remember, movies are all about the viewers and not the satisfaction of geeks and their knack for whining about the trivial things missed in hollywood blockbuster movies.
@sandalpony69 i dont think its a geek thing to be true to the story. I understand ppl want action but when you forgot about the true fans and go for the big bucks,you lose your core fan group. big mistake. and i still dont understand how he can fly thru the ceiling of the elevator and the roof of the building , there are better ways to film that scene that would have made sense. and what do you mean putting that in the movie makes Superman a geek? Its what he does. he aint no geek!
Regardless of the perceived holes in its logic, I thought that scene was pretty badass. I mean, who wouldn't want to be able to just point a hand to the sky and just take off, breaking the sound barrier? I thought that was a quick, but awesome scene.
I used to think that there were camera's inside elevators, so then everyone he's Superman. My grandma reminded me, that he's super-fast! Touche old lady!
He takes off his clothes and leaves them in the elevator shaft and leaves a big hole in the top of the building!? Such illogical script and direction. Sorry, Bryan and crew.
Idk, maybe they were just trying to avoid the Powerpuff Girl Exit, for some reason (where a hero/heroine crashes through the ceiling rather than going outside first).
As for the clothes...well, I'm sure the next person in the elevator will be gullible enough that they'll just think the Rapture occured. ;-)
Leaving his clothes behind in an elevator shaft makes a hell of a lot more sense than his regular clothes simply disappearing to reveal the Superman uniform like in the old movies. That was just lazy.
What, as opposed to his clothes magically changing while he's running or jumping out of a window? Or like in 3 when he changed by going into a car through one door and exiting from the other in his costume?
He always seem to superspeed away without anyone noticing on Smallville. But, wouldn't you hear a huge sonic boom if he just zooms out of the room behind your back??
Superman Returns , far too few hits and way to many misses.Should have been one of the biggest blockbuster movies ever but ended up being miscast ,boring,too nostalgic and when you compare it to THE DARK KNIGHT it falls way short of what could have been.
There is no comparison to be made between this movie and the dark knight...they are totally different. I do agree with most of what you said though, but brandon routh is a great Superman, I don't care what anyone says.
For me Christopher Reeve is Superman, Superman is Christopher Reeve. Anyone else an imposter! Wow if they could do another Superman film with him in it. The world would go crazy! Can you imagine the scenes at the pictures?? "General would you care to step outside?" yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa lol
