[QUOTE]Originally posted by Aban Rune: [QB] Once I got comfortable with this being a sequel to the Reeves movies, I enjoyed it alot more. I was looking for more of a reboot ala Batman Begins. I wanted a fresh, maybe slightly darker Superman continuity where Luthor was a little more e-vil and less snobby, toupee wearing jag-off. I wanted an Alex Ross style Superman. Older, tired, but still galantly fighting the good fight. A leather cape... on Superman? Did. Not. Work. I also couldn't stand the small "S" on his chest. It really needed to be bigger. And the neck line on his uniform looked really dumb. They did it better in "Lois and Clark". Some little plot holes: 1) "Thousands of years" passed during Kal-El's original trip to Earth, presumably due to relativistic effects of near-lightspeed travel, yet Supes manages to make a round trip this time in 5 years. I thought him being all weak and barely able to stand after he landed from going so long without exposure to the Earh's yellow sun was cool though. 2) Didn't Luthor use the Addis Ababba meteorite in the first movie? I suppose more than one chunk could've been a part of that meteor strike. 3) Would a dying woman's barely legible signature on a recently updated will really hold up in court? And surely the family would've tied up the inheritance in court for years. But hey... the special effects rocked hard, especially the shuttle rescue sequence. I was super-stunned. [/QB][/QUOTE]
