    Who would YOU cast as the new Superman?

    Ok, since poor ol' Brandon Routh seems to get zero love here...

    I actually liked him. He was a bit stiff but with the right direction he may do better. Let a little more of himself come through.

    I can't think of anyone off hand that coul dpull off Supes.

      I'd want an unknown

      Somebody I never heard of (like Christopher Reeve was)

      I don't want him too pumped up ..... Supes should not be a muscleman

      But imo, Routh was too skinny .......

      I want somebody in between....

      For personality .........

      He's gotta be a nice guy ... EVEN when dealing with baddies ...
      Like Reeve.

      I also think he needs to be "the ultimate boyscout" like so many people call him.

      If not, he's not Superman

      I have no picks.

      I want an unknown

        I didn't mind Routh actually....what I disliked was Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane...the kid....and the rehash of plot from "Superman:The Movie".

              Yes, I'd go with Welling, too. Are we ever going to see him grow up and put on a cape?

              Can't we just call a Mulligan on Singer's SR like they did with Ang Lee's Hulk and reboot with an interesting actor and a primary colored suit?

                Sorry, I don't want Superman looking like Angelina Jolie, lol.

                  Fair enough.

                  BUT...which known actor you think has that Supes look?

                  I'm not asking you to pick him as your choice...but I'm still kinda interested in what kinda look you're looking for...so I need a known person to work as a working model, Mike.

                    I would like to see Tom Welling in a suit. . .before he ends up moving into a retirement village in Smallville, with Chloe working the retirement villages Newsletter. . .advertising the best early Bird Special locations and obituaries. What are they waiting for. . .yeah it was a great concept. . .but time to move it up to that next step!

                      God no! I loved Kate as Lois. It was nice having a sexy looking Lois Lane.

                      I hated that Margot Kidder. She looked like a transvestite. Never looked right!

                      Out of all the gals who played Lois Lane. I could never figure out why the women looked and sounded like a man dressed as woman.

                        Because Kidder is a life long smoker, that's why.

                            He has the right look...but unfortunately the guy is only 5' 9"...that's Robin territory right there...

                              She looks like a highschool age checkout girl in Burger King.

                              She just doesn't look like Lois Lane.
