I think it makes no difference anyone who act the role of Superman, as long as he really loves the character.

they should sign singer and roth to another contract.there was nothing wrong with superman returns.it captured the heart of superman.no mater how dark the world gets superman should not change to reflect changes.

commenting on the comment criticising the flying a rock in space as bad thing.he flew up a rock of kryptinite with a protective covering that he knew would melt away.he knew it could very well kill him and he did it anyway.how much more can you get to the heart of superman.

one more aside:luther is better then a known criminal then a evil industrialist with secret plans.

I remember the stories that circulated about a Superman movie a few years back that sounded absolutely nothing like Superman, except for the name. What McTeigue says scares the pants off of me. I’m one of the few “I thought Singer’s Superman was great” people, but I can at least see the points of people that didn’t like it. That said, and as someone before me posted, something along the lines of the Iron Man/Spiderman movies – that sticks to the heart of Superman while making it fun – would be perfect.

I read McTiegue’s interview and I see visions of some no name actor in a totally unrecognizable suit doing things that have absolutely no relationship to the comic – like the “Catwoman” movie only with better writing and production quality. It may be a romp, but it won’t be Superman.

gunsmith,
if they don`t want bale too get too old they better film the rest of the batman films simoutaneously, i really don`t see why they`re waiting till next year to film Batman 3 like Spidey 4, Batman doesn`t to go to deep into off-the-edge plans, they should start filming now. And i liked routh but if they do a reboot he might get too old too i hate saying that they`re too old when they look right for their roles it stinks how every superhero must come to a problem where there`s no right player to stok their franchise, i guess the Reeve super franchise is the only franchise were he hasn`t got too old

BALE IS PROBABLLY THE MOST CORRECTLY MUSCLE PREPORTIONED BATMAN IN THE FRANCHISE..KEATON HAD THING IN HIM, ATTITUDE..BUT HIS BODY DOESN’T SAY”IM STRONG ENUFF TO LIFT A GUY OVER THE EDGE OF A ROOFTOP..VAL KILMER WAS A BIT MORE BUILT, BUT I THINK HE’S MORE BUILT FOR RUNWAY MODELING RATHER GIVING CRIMINALS A BEAT DOWN.GEORGE CLOONEY..UMM YEAH…BUT BALE LOOKS FIT, IF YOU SEE HIM YOU CAN SAY YEAH HE COULD POSSIBLY GIVE PEOPLE A SERIOUS BEAT DOWN, THIS GUY PACKED ON THE MUSCLE AFTER THE MACHINIST..HE WAS ANOREXIC IN THAT ONE, SO THAT IN ITSELF IS COMMENDABLE AND SHOWS THE GUY IS DEDICATED..HE’S NOT TOO OLD..ITS A PACKAGE, ITS WORKING..AND DARKNIGHT WAS RIGHT BEHIND THE HEELS OF TITANIC..SO MOST PEOPLE ARE AGREEING NOLAN HAS PICKED THE RIGHT GUY.

if there`s someone who looks very much like Superman then i guess we still se the same Superman in front of us. And i`d hate to sound this part, but isn`t bale getting a little old in his role as Batman?

HONESTLLY IF THEY REALLY WANT A SUPERMAN IN FILM THAT WORKS….STAY TRUER TO THE COMICS…THATS SOMETHING MARVEL HAS BEEN DOING MORE THAN DC FOR LONGER….AND SOME WONDER WHY MARVEL HAS MORE SUCCESSFUL MOVIES THAN DC.. I WONDER SOMETIMES WHEN THESE STUDIOS WITH ALL THIS MONEY ARE WONDERING HOW TO IMPRESS AND REALLY ALL THEY GOTTA DO IS LISTEN TO WHAT PEOPLE WANT

I’d like to see McTeigue on Superman. But I want it to be the Post Crisis, almost TAS style Supes. I want the businessman Lex (as a subcharacter, not the main villain of course, but he has to be there, IMO), with hints of All Star Superman in there. And Brainiac as the BIG bad. And good ol’ Lois and Clark, NO Jason, NO Richard. Please. And lotsa action. there ya go, that’s the movie.

good discussion on this topic – singer paid too much homage to the originals which was fine to a certain extent, but the whole luthor/land grab bs has been overdone and it really dumbed down the character. also the kid was a stupid idea. and to whoever thought this – it was a really BORING movie. with all the effects that could have been done – we have to watch the story line of supes lifting half a mountain into space? seems like there would be more evil shiiiit going on knowing that supes was gone for 5 years. i bought and watched supes/batman public enemies and thought that was really excellent. now if they could only do a live action version with similar exciting elements. but who am i – just a lowly comic sci fi geek whose written words will fall on deaf ears and blind eyes.

I WANT ZACK SNYDER TO DIRECT IT..AT LEAST THAT GUY FOLLOWS THE COMIC MORE CLOSLEY..SUPERMAM CHISTOPHER REEVE, WAS COOL, DONT GET ME WRONG..AND SINGER TRIED TO BE NOSTALGIC AND HONOR HIM IN THAT RESPECT, GETTING A NEAR LOOK ALIKE IN ROUTH…BUT FOR ME..THEY NEED TO TAKE A FRESH STEP..ZACK SNYDER DELVES DEEP INTO WHAT PEOPLE LOVED IN THE LITERATURE AND LOOK AND BRING OUT WHAT WE IMAGINED THE BOOK TO BE.THE SUPERMAN MOVIES HAD THEIR THING, ITS 2009..MAYBE ITS TIME TO LOOK AT IT CLOSER TO THE COMIC, BECAUSE IF YOU LOOKED AT IT FROM A GEEK STAND POINT, THEY FOLLOWED IT, THEY CHANGED THINGS, BUT ULTIMATELY, WE HAVENT SEEN A SUPERMAN DEEP AND LOYAL TO THE COMIC

I read that story. It wasn’t good but it wasn’t horrible. They could work something out for the script I’m sure if they spent enough time and resources on it.

They just need to do a Superman and Batman Bromance Buddy Comedy.

Going to be contreversial. Superman cannot be allowed to fizzle out.

Clark Kent/Superman- David Boreanaz.

Lois Lane- Kate Beckinsale.

Brainiac- Michael C Hall.

Lex Luthor- Kevin Spacey.

Perry White- Sam Neill.

Jimmy Olsen- Justin Long.
