    Default Man...or Super-Man?

    This movie rocked my face off. Kevin Spacey rocked my face off. Words like "ALIENATION" appearing on a game of Scrabble rocked my face off. The dude who usually plays Cyclops kinda rocked my face off. I wish I was a girl so I could say he's hot. :\

    I thought it was a great action movie with some pretty hilarious moments in it. It was also special because the first Superman movie was the first full-length movie I ever saw with my parents when I was 3 - it was taped from a TV airing. And the kid killing a man with a piano? Holy crap man that was sick! Discuss.

    I'll see it this weekend. Superman's kind of a dweeb compared to other superheroes, but Kevin Spacey is more than enough to draw me in.

    It's okay, you can be more than hopeful.

    I went to see the midnight premeire tonight and... holy crap, dude. AWESOME. Brandon Routh and Kevin Spacey were definitely the best roles in the whole movie. It had everything, too: A little romance, campy humor, sadness, action... what more could you ask for? Are you going to be disappointed?

    I was lucky enough to get to see a sneak preview of the movie yesterday at 7:00 in IMAX 3D at the Great Clip's IMAX theatre at the Minnesota Zoo. That rocked. There was 20 minutes worth of 3d that just blew your mind.

    Anyways, the movie was great. It was actually had a lot of sincerety that most other comic adaptations miss out on. IT was truley amazing.

    Kevin as lex completly stole the show - just amazing. Plot twists were very apparent, and one nice suprising development really makes this movie rate high on my list.

    It was very long, but there did not seem to be that much filler. A little bit, but whatever - a very good movie.

    One of my friends is going to see it tonight, and I couldn't make it due to work, but he and I are going this Saturday to see it on IMAX. I haven't seen a movie on IMAX before, other than a documentary, and I don't think I could pick much better; maybe Return of the King, but...well, I'm prepared to have my face utterly rocked.

    The Finnish release date is July 28th, so exactly one month after the US release. It will take a while to arrive here. Superman Returns will probably turn out to be a good movie and a great hit, though I'm not sure yet if I'll go and watch it in the movies.

    Fun story.

    It is 8;01am and I am at work. I woke up about 30 minutes ago.

    How? I slept in my office parking lot.

    That's how hard core a Superman fan I am -- I skipped going home just to watch the late show.

    Conclusion: amazing movie. I am very glad this isn't a campy teen movie. I've secretly hated PG13 movies (or didn't really find them memorable) but this one is super.

    Oh God it's so amazing. I'm watching it again and again.

    Yep, just got back from watching it. One of the best movies I've seen in a really long time. Just about perfect, really. Kevin Spacey is a master of his art. Brandon Routh did a superb job. Bryan Singer gave the movie a perfect flow. Just really, a phenomenal film.

    You are kidding right? Have you seen the size of Routh's thighs? They're about twice the size of his head.
