I really hope that Brandon Roth, continues playing the roll of Superman. The loss of Chrostopher Reeve was tragic, as though we had lost the real Superman…Christopher Reeve was Superman in my eyes. Brandon Roth was an AWSOME reincarnation of Christopher Reeve AND Superman…he looks so much like Chris…he’s just right for the roll. Its as if a sample of DNA was taken from Chris and Hmmmm…Maybe even Marlin Brando, to create the perfect Superman of our time. I suspect that these hollywood executives surely know this and are just giving a tease to forcast any signs of doubt in there original BRILLIANT choice in making Brandon Roth the new Superman…HOLLYWOOD EXECS. “DONT SCREW THIS UP” BRANDON ROTH IS SUPERMAN!!! Not to mention the HAUNTING resemblence he has to Chris…makes that a fitting and meaningful memorial to Chris’s life and the special place he had in our lives as Superman…THE PLANETS SAVIOR…AKA, JESUS CHRIST….YES thats right. “THE SON BECOMES THE FATHER AND THE FATHER BECOMES THE SON”…..DO GOOD, BE WELL…BryanSweazy@yahoo.com

Christopher Reeve was Superman of the 80's and 90's, Brandon Routh is our Superman of the 00's and 10's ! Routh was the best thing about Superman Returns, using him in the reboot is sensational news !!! Thank You Warner Bros for using some good sense.

i still think that Tom Whelling would have been great for the new superman movies.

Man, Brandon is the newest Superman and He does Christopher Reeves Justice!Mr Routh is taking the reins for the Late Christopher Reeve and I for one think that he should be the face of Superman until otherwise! Anyone else is unacceptable!!

^ I don’t think you canceled yourself out, as Reeve and Routh obviously aren’t competing for the role.
I also don’t think you are in the minority to say Reeve’s Superman is better, but Routh’s Clark Kent was better. And since Reeve can no longer do the role, I believe Routh is the best man for the job.
Plus, if you haven’t noticed, Routh has been bulking up. He looks even more like Superman than he did in 2006.
Here he is from three months ago:

I liked Routh as Clark, a little less cheesily bumbbly as Christopher Reeves, but Reeves strength in the way he carried himself as Superman was far Superior to Routh’s. I think I just cancelled out my own vote. I think they shouldn’t revamp it a la The Dark Night…the world of divorced/seperated parents is dark enough, I’m sure someone will come up with a good screenplay.

I still hope that this is what is going to happen. I definitely want to see Routh take on the role again.

Um yeah Chris do us a favor and calculate at what speed material failure should occur, counter balanced against an increasing force produced by Superman opposing the planes fall, keeping in mind the finite distance from point “A” where Superman intercepted the plane and the ground. Don’t forget to factor in all of the planes weight focused on a single wing over the actual surface area used by Superman to attempt to stop it.

I like Brandon Routh as Superman. I did not think his performance was flawed at all. The disappointment that Superman Returns was not as big as it could have been was the writing. This will be of subject a bit, but I wish I could participate in the writing process save for spelling. Superman has abilities in the physical world. Superman Returns failed to observe his abilities. Case in point the whole plane catching physics vs. the new Kryptonite planet. That plane weighed much less with no Kryptonite. Second, there must be a reason for Why The World Needs Superman. Superman vs Lex Luthor is like me vs. a slug. Amp up the threat level. Make it alien. Superman is. There that is my rant and in part my rave for Brandon.

The story of Superman is needed these days. He was before any Bat, Spider, or Iron man! Brandon Routh is just as good as an actor as Christopher Reeve to portray this legendary hero. He deserves as many opportunities at it as Reeve had. I think both of these great actors have and do, bring the Man of Steel life and show that Superman is still one of the best comic book heroes ever! It is Routh’s turn to carry this torch.

I am a fan of Christopher Reeve’s portrayal of the character, but more important than that is that I am a fan of the character that he was portraying. The one thing I like about Brandon Routh is the fact that he is a Superman fan coming into the role.

Yeah he has had a tough time with the role, given that he was following in the footsteps of an actor whose portrayal is considered to be the quintessential Man of Steel, the last movie didn’t give him much to do. But to be honest he did good enough with what he had to deal with. Besides I would like to see Routh have another shot at the role and let him shine in it like Reeve did.

Well good Blueyes you can have Routh. But in my eyes he will never ever replace Christopher Reeve he was that absolute best Superman!

Routh really disapointed me when I seen Superman Returns he didn’t do anywhere near as good as Reeve did! That’s why I don’t really care to see anymore Superman movies.

YES!! Brandon Routh Is MY Superman. HE HAS TO COME BACK to reprise the role in the next Supes movie. HE IS AWESOME! But it makes me sad that they aren’t making the sequel, since I really liked Superman Returns.

I’ll be glad if Routh is still Superman in the Reboot.
