Personally I thought "Superman Returns" was a great movie. Brandon Routh and Kevin Spacey were excellent. So when I learned about half a year ago that they're rebooting it,I was disappointed to say the least. THEN about three months ago when they announced Henry Cavill would play the "Man of Steel" I was extremely disappointed. Amy Adams may be good as Lois Lane but I just feel they could have picked a better Superman/Clark Kent. Your thoughts and opinions?

You may be the only Superman fan that was disappointed with Henry Cavill. I enjoyed SR, but it certainly had its flaws.

Yes I won't deny it had it's flaws, but I think it was good enough to earn another movie in the Christopher reeve/Brandon routh series. And while no one can top Reeve, there were some traits that routh possessed that reminded me of Christopher Reeve. I guess I'm stuck on Routh and that's why I'm disappointed with Cavill. I suppose I'm a minority ha.

as a person whos not a fan of superman, i'm excited for the reboot. I dont like Adams casting as she doesn't fit the comic image of Lois. and any one who says Superman Returns was good is not thinking, only cool part was when the kid pushed the piano

If you want to be reminded of Chris Reeve:

There isn't a single comic image of Lois. However, there are plenty comic images of Lois that are very similar to Adams, including many of the first comic images of Lois. I was so glad they didn't pick someone like Olivia Wilde to be Lois. Adams is an incredible actress. If you haven't seen The Fighter yet, watch it. She can be a bad***. And yet remain incredibly charming while doing so.

I'm agreeing with you too much lately, something is amiss in the universe I think.

Now where did the movie thread go? And the other I started last night?

I dunno -- what's up with that? That ain't cool.
