Good? Bad? Indifferent?

[Tripe]

Well, I read that as "Russell Brand" at first so that's a significant improvement

Actually it's potentially a good casting, he can be a bit hit and miss I find, but when things come together he can be great. I suppose it'll depend on the other elements really.

Well, I guess that means there will be more action in this movie. He'll be fightin' 'round the world. So is Jimmy Olsen going to be played by Tugga?

[Doctor Who?]

My only problem with this is that it means I am going to have to sit through Superman's origin story again.  Between movies,radio shows,tv shows,and cartoons i have seen Superman's origin so many times i want to scream.  i will be going to this movie because I hope it will be really good and I think Crowe is good casting,but really the origin yet again

Wait, Superman is from ANOTHER planet?

Gasp, that is news to me.
