the movie plot summary:
Quote:
Following a mysterious absence of several years, the Man of Steel comes back to Earth in the epic action-adventure Superman Returns, a soaring new chapter in the saga of one of the world's most beloved superheroes. While an old enemy plots to render him powerless once and for all, Superman faces the heartbreaking realization that the woman he loves, Lois Lane, has moved on with her life. Or has she? Superman's bittersweet return challenges him to bridge the distance between them while finding a place in a society that has learned to survive without him. In an attempt to protect the world he loves from cataclysmic destruction, Superman embarks on an epic journey of redemption that takes him from the depths of the ocean to the far reaches of outer space.
Sounds kind of gay, why not take a page from Batman begins and start over. But that isn't really why I think the movie is going to suck.

This is...

Cast list:
Quote:
Brandon Routh .... Clark Kent/Superman
rest of cast listed alphabetically:
Stephan Bender .... Young Clark Kent
Kate Bosworth .... Lois Lane
Marlon Brando .... Jor-El (archive footage)
Sam Huntington .... Jimmy Olsen
James Karen .... Ben Hubbard
Frank Langella .... Perry White
James Marsden .... Richard White
Mike Massa .... 777 Pilot
Noel Neill .... Previously Wealthy Woman
Kal Penn .... Stanford
Parker Posey .... Kitty Koslowski
Eva Marie Saint .... Martha Kent
Kevin Spacey .... Lex Luthor
Peta Wilson .... Flight Attendant

Look at that cast list. Sure Kevin Spacey is a pretty good actor but he is going to have to pull another Keyser Soze out of his butt to save this one. Besides Mr. Spacey. I only recognize A few other names on the cast list and I don't think much of most of them. Look at the Spiderman Movies, Look at Batman, Look at Sin City, The selection of a quality cast is one of the most important parts of making the movie right. It looks like they just signed up who ever would say "yes, i'll be in it".
