MJD, I don't see any Krpytonite in that comic strip If all he had to do was use "Super Will power" (LOL) to over come it then why couldn't he manage to just slip off the necklace in the pool in STM? Beacuse there was no sun there to give him a constant feed of energy?  |

So you're saying he can overcome the effects of Kryptonite using Super will power as long as he's in direct contact with Sun light? And people think Nuclearman was dumb...  |

I know all the Kryptonite movie stuff is inconsistent. It must be his new suit in SR that blocks out Kryptonite radiation. ;D

To further Scissor's inquiry (which I have yet to be satisfied with any explanation/spin)....the hospital scene....what the fuck were the doctor's doing!?! This guy is a superheroic ALIEN and they act as if they know exactly what to do with his physiology. And how did a NEEDLE penetrate his skin? He was strong enough to lift an island but weak enough that a simple needle penetrated his skin? I hated the whole hospital scene.

The scene I hated was the bar scene. Clark's excuse for being gone for five years that he was with donkey's. ;D

Why was his drinking the Budweiser? I love how George Reeves always asked for a glass of milk or ginger ale; adds to the charm. Hospital scene was another in-your-face Christ analogy. No, it didn't make a lick of sense, but get the imagery in there - that'll please the fans  SR hardly ended on a feel-good feeling did it? He got out of hospital, Lex on the loose still and that was licence to smile at the audience? Bollocks. |

....but the needle DIDN'T penetrate his skin. They even said it, because he wasn't human. In fact, the doctors couldn't do enough for him, they all thought he was not going to make it. At least that's what I got from that scene. Maybe you need to watch that scene again.. But it's ok for him to drink champagne and to shack up with Lois?  |

Turning the conversation back to Nolan....
Wonder if- as rumored- Nolan's brother will actually be directing.
It's a bit scary, if that's so... not to mention more than a little risky.
Does anyone know if Jonathan Nolan has directed anything else?
If not.... (presuming that he is directing) .... hard to see Chris Nolan pushing (or taking over) Jonathan Nolan if things go astray in moviemaking.
Timingwise, too--- would Chris Nolan be too busy finishing the third Batman film to really supervise the Superman movie that's supposed to be released a year later?
Hmn.... I guess we'll find out soon enough who's set to direct. Maybe by Comicon?

Like I said, I could accept Superman lifting the island because 1.) the island isn't pure kryptonite and 2.) the effort does near kill him. What I can't accept are the shots in the hospital that reveal Lois hadn't completely removed the shard of pure kryptonite from Superman's side. |

back to nolan's "back to basics " approach....
- if we are getting a superman closer to the original siegal schuster idea-
and we don't assume it's a period piece, can we infer a less-powerful and less boy-scout-speech-after-every-rescue ?
cause frankly i could get behind it.

Shame on Nolan based on your wild assumption before you've seen the outcome?

I think it'd be pretty sweet if they did a beginnings of Superman, not his origin but him deciding to become Supes and showing his first couple of rescues and fuckups. Specifically, Id love it if they had the citizens of Metropolis kind of be afraid of him, not trust him. Then by the end he gains their trust and their love after saving the day in a very massive and public way. Have Luthor be the rich man-about-town loved by all Luthor and the only person who doesn't approve of Superman in the end.

In a way, I don't mind him a bit weaker. For example, if he can't fly as fast, that COULD mean less CGing. And as we all know, the original movie didn't have that and look how good it made the scenes look. And by the end of Superman IV, he was pushing the moon around folks....making him weaker but still keeping his powers isn't a bad thing necessarily

I'd like to see more of Planet Krypton. I don't wonna see an origins type story again with him growing up etc - that's been done to death. But seeing more insight to Superman's homeworld throughout some of the movie would be very interesting and would certainly move in a new direction away from the Donnerverse we are all so used to.

Make him as vulnerable as he is in the animated series. That'd be good. Not so God like.

Personally I want to see about as much beginning as James Bond in Casino Royale.
I'm so bored of Superman's origins story. Let's just dive straight into the action from the off.

We certainly do not need another Reeve clone in a "Donnerverse" ripping off what we've seen before.

Problem is, we'll never get a proper sci fi Superman epic. Donner's were set in reality. Nolan's will DEFINITELY be set in reality.
I just wanna see Superman fly through an alien spaceship and tear others apart with his heat vision and fists. I wanna see all out Superman action that we as the people of earth have NEVER seen outside of comics and cartoons.
