I thought Superman Returns was okay, but I wasn't overly excited about it. They clung TOO hard to the successful movies with Christopher Reeve. This wasn't a new movie so much as an attempted remake, and a poor one at that. *** If they're serious about Superman, they need to start, ON KRYPTON, and rebuild the movie series from there. Hence the title of a more successful WB franchise, Batman BEGINS. There are some story elements that can be easily updated - see John Byrne's very successful reboot of the comics in the mid 1980s. *** Finally, WB needs to let whichever actor is in the suit make the role his own. I felt SO sorry for Brandon Routh, because nothing of HIM was Superman, aside from the warm body in the suit, little more than a Christopher Reeve impersonation. WB needs to remember that when Christopher took the role, many people thought NO ONE could top George Reeves. Yet Christopher took the role and made it HIS OWN. Brandon Routh, or whomever is cast as Superman deserves a chance to make his own unique mark on the character.

Superman Returns was... ok. Nothing to shout about though. Rebooting now, would probably be the best idea. BUT here, would be the best time to put the DC movie world in sync. Make the third Batman, while Superman 1 is on the go. Make superman 2 while Flash and Wonder Woman are on the go. After an array of sequals and another origin film, hit em with Justice Leauge. DO IT.
