totally agree with you mate, christopher reeves is and always will be the best superman there ever was!

I completely agree with you. He will always be Superman to me, and that's part of why I liked Routh as Superman, he exuded the same qualities that Reeve did.

Although I will say that I am glad for more movies. While Reeve will always be iconic, I do want more Superman stories to be told.

but sadly, reeves isn't available any more.

i have to say i prefer what they're doing with this new superman movie.
they're not tied to reeves portrayal, they're bringing a new superman.
routh was great in the role, but he was still playing a version of reeves superman.

it's not like there's any one definitive superman in the comics.
there have been loads of different takes on superman over his 70 year history.

and who knows, just like reeves superman, elements from the new movie could make their way into the comics, in fact that kind of thing has happened pretty often with superman.

i mean the flying came from a radio play and was then used in the comics.

I don't have any problem with the title, and you're a little late to that party. They announced that as the working title a long time ago.

I'm glad they aren't just going with plain old "Superman". There's nothing wrong with man of Steel as that's what he is and is always called by.

why would you want them to be original with the title... who cares. They are bringing these franchises back and doing them right. "fingers crossed again" also hoping batman doesn't take with the 3rd movie like most 3rd movies do. Back to the title I really don't see a big deal with this how do you make superman original with a titles " superman guy with really strong skin, laser eyes jumps/fly's high...... he is the man of steel there is nothing wrong with that.

He is. Michael Shannon is playing Zod.
