However, i do enjoy our little cyber-comment-conversation

l upset me all the more.  I won’t find out until October…

Then the new-me goes off quietly and screams so loud that his throat bleeds.

Then goes and sees it for the third time 11pm monday night to feel better.

Then cries without knowing why. 

Tears mixing with the blood in the sink.  Tasting it.  Tasting the pent up rage.  Mmmmmm.  It tastes so goddamned fantastic.  So god damned fucking fantastic. 

But it needs more tears.

It was great that Singer went to the trouble to tie it in visually and musically with the originals, right down to the style of the opening credits. Unfortunately, this hampers the film, because Routh is no Reeve, and Spacey is no Hackman. They’re just robotic copies of them.

Originally I felt the comic geeks were overreacting, but after seeing the film I agree: Superman would never abandon Earth, especially for such a selfish reason. The tragic events of this movie are all his fault. Even worse, he x-ray stalks Lois and climbs into childrens’ bedrooms late at night. (I’m not serious about the latter, but I am about the former. Isn’t a right to privacy part of “the American way?”)

There were just some downright dumb things in there, too. That ridiculous gatling gun, and the bit with the fax machine. And note to Bryan Singer: yes, we get it already, HE’S JESUS. No need to brain us over the head with it in such a ham-handed Wachowskian manner.

It did answer the question of what James Marsden was doing last year instead of X-Men 3. And unlike Cyclops, his character in this film was actually likeable.

Still, I want my eight bucks back.

This is now my Fave of the year.

BTW, do you know some reports have this movie listed as a $260 budget!  I had heard just north of 200.  But wow!  Doesn’t that make this the most expensive film ever made, at least until the 300 million Spidey 3 comes out next May?
