It's A Bird, It's a Plane, It's the New Superman
 

Well, it's official, we have a new Superman for the 21st Century. Ok another Superman for the 21st Centruy, but whatever.

A relative unknown, Brandon Routh has been cast as the part of the Man of Steel, in Bryan Singer's Superman. The movie will pick up after the second Superman movie, discounting the last two movies.

How does Bryan Singer get to direct both both Marvel AND D.C. superhero movies?

Re: It's A Bird, It's a Plane, It's the New Superman
 

He doesn't ;)

Re: It's A Bird, It's a Plane, It's the New Superman
 

Does the new director not agree with the direction that the 3rd and 4th movie went?

Re: It's A Bird, It's a Plane, It's the New Superman
 

Im hoping this will be a good movie. Considering you know....its Superman...and how long has it been since theer was a Superman movie?


(Also, is it just me that thinks that "The Adventures of Jerry Seinfeld and Superman" would make a hilarious movie/and or TV show?)

Re: It's A Bird, It's a Plane, It's the New Superman
 

They did kind of...you know...suck.

Although I don't think he should just throw the last two movies away, either. If he's going to follow the continuity of past Superman movies, he needs to count all of them.

Although I would rather have the new movie part a whole new continuity. If they can do it with a fraanchise less than 10 years old, they do it for one over 20.

Yeah that's the one thing I don't get, but I'm sure it's directors choice.

But by the time Batman Begins comes out, there will have been 8 years between Batman and Robin in this movie, and yet they are restarting the franchise.

Between Superman IV and this one, is closer to 20 years (don't know exact number), and it's even more between Superman II and this one, but it's continuing.

saw his piccie today...must say...hes goodlookin :p

Re: It's A Bird, It's a Plane, It's the New Superman
 

Uh...he directed both X-Men movies.

And now he's directing this.

Re: It's A Bird, It's a Plane, It's the New Superman
 

Well, there is nothing wrong with directing for both companies.

What I was getting at is, he no longer works with Marvel, atleast not on the X-Men franchise.

Re: It's A Bird, It's a Plane, It's the New Superman
 

Ah. I just think it's impressive that he was able to do movies for both.

Re: It's A Bird, It's a Plane, It's the New Superman
 

why the hell not?!?!?!


man...the third movie is gonne suck..
