      he certainly looks like he can do the part but I thought they wanted a more mature looking Superman for this reboot.

          Henry Cavill is not only physically imposing...but I dig his acting...and the dude has a great screen presence...

          Like I previously said...I had absolutely NO idea whatsoever that he been cast as Superman...I watched him all the time in The Tudors...and he was by far my favorite character in that show.

          The more I think about it...the more I'm liking him as the new Supes.

          Bat...my hats off to you...

              Mmm, I have been drooling over these photos for the last few days as the time for painting my O'Hearn head has finally arrived.

                      He'll be a year or two older when the movie finally wraps up production...

                        I've said it before and I still mean it.... If the new Superman flick isn't a Sandy Collora film I want nothing to do with it. Seriously.

                          Reeve was teeny when he was cast. It took a David Prowse to whip him into shape and put a few muscles on his scrawny frame.

                          In short, a small guy who can act is easier to beef up than to teach a beefy guy how to act in the same period of time.

                          But there are a few times you truly do discover the holy grail. Look at a guy like the Rock. No one though this musclehead "'rassler" could act in a small part, much less STAR in any major movie. Whether you like his movies or not, he makes them and makes good money doing so.

                          Could there be a Superman in the wrestling ring waiting to be discovered? Maybe.

                          I know Triple H auditioned for Conan and Thor, and was actually a front runner ON Conan for a while... but the stigma of wrestling.

                          If you're a huge muscle guy that can act, chances are, you're in the ring.

                          Anyhow, I digress...

                          I'm waiting to see.

                          If this give makes me crush when I see the film, it's all good.

                            Same thing happened to John Cena...physically...he was Captain America...but Hollywood gave it to an obnoxious dude who already played a superhero...the Human Torch...
