Right here

Kevin Spacey is Lex, so that's promising.

God I hope they won't mess it up. Not that the Christopher Reeve ones were a grand success though...

The teaser trailer is pretty good though. It goes hand in hand with what I would've imagined a new movie about Superman would be like. And Marlon's script (what you hear during the trailer) pretty much immortalizes the whole idea Superman's about.

As a sidenote, Smallville has been progressing quite godly these past few episodes, especially the one yesterday. I wonder if perchance the movie will continue off from where the series ends in 2006?

Maybe not, since they can milk the series for at least 3 more seasons, but still, there seems to be collaboration between the new movie and the series, seeing how they both will follow the same pattern.

The trailer looks decent.

It's going to suck so bad it may very well cause the entire DC universe to implode.

Eeeeeeehhhhhhhhh I kinda doubt that.

I mean it very well might, but it seems to have all the ingredients to be a solid movie.

It'll be crap, like every other comic adaptation has been.

Batman Begins was pretty good.

And I liked Fantastic Four.

True, but so is the modern age Superman. At least the Golden Age Superman wasn't basically invulnerable (as opposed to being stunned by nuclear explosives, he was injured by artillery shells).

Legacy/Legend/Whatever productions are footing half of the bill for this one, just as they did for Batman Begins.

I doubt they'd be wasting their money if the movie was ****.

Are you TRYING to get people to just ignore everything you say?

Didn't particularly like those first two, haven't seen Batman Begins yet.

And just for Zylonbane's benefit, I'll rephrase. In my opinion, the likelihood of it being crap is quite high, as the overwhelming majority of comic adaptations have been less than impressive, to say the least.

X2 was far better than X-Men, in my opinion, and I thought Batman Begins was quite good. Most others I have not enjoyed though.

Yes. He was less of a retard, though only by a bit. For example, he married Lois, rather than doing stuff like this:

This was originally going to be directed by Tim Burton, with Nicholas Cage as Superman. That would have kicked ass.
