    Zack Snyder enjoys the taste of shoe leather

    This guy just can't quit:

    I'll say one thing. I'll say, thank God for Smallville. Smallville by itself, quietly has kept Superman in consciousness in a way that with out it my kids really would be like, 'Who the hell is Superman? I don't even know who the guy is!' I think that in that way Smallville has done an amazing job of just keeping that icon alive and breathing. He is on life support, but he is there. And I thank them for that.
    I'm sure the folks at Warners/DC are really happy to hear him say that. Pretty insulting to the folks who have worked on Superman in recent times. I doubt very seriously that kids know Superman from Smallville only (especially since they have yet to truly use that name on the show). Superman has a had a continuous media pressence since, well really, forever! Even since the Reeve movies ended, you had the Ruby Spears Superman series, Superboy, Lois & Clark, STAS, JL/JLU, Smallville, Superman Returns, Young Justice...?!?

    I'm not sure I can take this guy running his mouth for a year and a half before this movie comes out.

    The casting sounds great, but just by his comments alone I'm leary of what this guy is going to do to "save" Superman and get him off life support!

    Well, knowing that Nolan is producing and co-wrote the script...makes me feel better about it. I'm sure Nolan can reign him in, if he starts to go too far off the Tracks.

      Really? In that case, he should also be thanking rap culture, because that and the one basketball player is another reason so many people are walking around with Superman shirts and tattoos.

        Yeah, I do not get a good vibe from him, but I liked Superman Returns, so what do I know?
        It's all good!

            Personally I think Zack Snyder is wrong man for the Job!. I am glad Nolan helped write the script .I just dont like Snyders style of Directing.WB and Nolan should keep looking for a Director ? I like Bryan Singer but the Script for Superman Returns was garbage.I think The first 2 X Men films are better then anything Snyder has done to Date!

                Er - well as Kurosawa once said "A great script and a bad director can make a good movie, but even a great director can't make a good movie with a bad script"

                (Something like that anyway)

                At the end of the day I still think Snyder's the wrong guy. Superman is a classy character and I don't think he can make a classy movie.

                  All I can say is, thank God for Zack Snyder. Thank God he's using his wonderful talent to keep an icon who's on life support from going the way of the dodo. I mean, this is the guy who reminded me that Watchmen exists. Until he'd made his movie, I completely forgot there was any such thing as "Watchmen". Bless you, Zack Snyder.

                    Me too! I also forgot the number "300" existed before he made that one.
