Exactly, jim!^^ I don't understand. You acknowledge that, in many circles SR is not as revered as BB. You also show proof of that. But your conclusion is that a lot of people like SR? But of course people are more 'open-minded' here...it's a site dedicated to Superman! And look at your site you quote...it gives SR 4 stars but Batman Begins 5 stars! Comicbook fans make a minority. They don't make or brake the BO. "And look at your site you quote...it gives SR 4 stars but Batman Begins 5 stars!"Still, SR got a very good score, though, and their review is very positive overall. Besides, other top critics gave SR a very high score, like Empire. Both SR and BB got 5 stars. And the reviewer's verdict of SR was this, which I happen to agree with, Verdict- "It’s all about heart — not that the spectacle falters; this is the finest popular entertainment since the Rings trilogy closed. Superman doesn’t fly — he soars."Also, for the Empire Reader's Awards 2007, voted by the thousands of readers, Superman Returns was a runner up in some of the categories such as Best director, Best film, Best sci-fi/fantasy, and Brandon won Best Newcomer. Not bad, I think, especially when some people say that it's such a terrible film that people didn't care about, www.empireonline.com/awards/malenewcomer.asp So, if there is no sequel, it's because WB are morons, IMO. .

That is something we can definitely agree upon.

SR. It's the only 1 of these 2 films I own on DVD. I also like how it was the true "Superman III" we've been waiting for since 1981.

All one has to do is acknowledge SR as the new SIII ;D I gladly do. Even though I'm still fond of Annette O'Toole's Lana Lang from SIII. Superman III, Superman Returns.... I can love BOTH.....AT THE SAME TIME!Like some folks can love both SII:TDC and SII:TLC at the same time. Can one think of any other movie series where it's fans can pick which 2nd or 3rd series entry they prefer?
