I think the story of "separating the powers from personal life" is Spidermans story. Being a teen thats more easily told through Spiderman, and always has been.

Superman's actual story is that no matter what he will put others before himself, will always do the right thing, and deep down even when he wants to put himself first he won't. Thats what the overall scope of Superman is, and hopefully Zach is deep enough to get this done correctly.

I've been saying it since the short-list came to light. Snyder was absolutely the man for the job from those mentioned. I really didn't see it as an option. He's the only one that truly had experience with this realm of films. He delivers such beautiful movies. He's definitely talented as we've seen. And couple that with the fact that his shortcomings would be covered up because Nolan/Goyer wrote the script, thus we don't have to be subjected to Snyder's sometimes questionable writing choices and overindulgence...it was just a no-brainer. I have no doubt he'll do a very fine job. With his ability to bring us beautiful movies that give us nice action, but also do a good job at presenting character...I definitely am looking forward to it.
