I hope there is a Special Edition blu ray of Superman Returns.

She did not manipulated anybody because she told Richard that her baby wasn't his from the start. He knew and he accepted her with her baggage.

I think there was a Singer interview blurb that mentioned she didn't know for sure & that Richard was thought to believe he truly WAS the father, but I'll have to dig that one up to confirm- or re-read the Dougherty script & see if there is evidence to that, which does give some great insights here and there about what the filmmakers intented in the side character blurbs.

(In one bit, Richard was always designed to be "Superman without the powers" as designed)

You could be right, but I never interpreted it that way from the get go. I assumed that he figured it out by the end- and that Lois didn't know for sure herself until the very moment that the piano was hurled across the room (if she did, then when the kids' life was in danger growing up, always being sick in hospitals--- wouldn't she be willing to tell the doctors that Superman was the father to help them with their diagnoises- unless she wasn't sure that the child was Kryptonian?).

I guess, sadly, a moot point.....*sigh*

Well, who knows what Singer really meant. It doesn't really matter anymore. Some enjoy it, some don't.

I always assumed Richard thought jason was his but Lois always had doubts. Thats why Lex's lien about 'are you sure?" had sort of a doubt meaning. She wasn't trying to intentionally mislead Richard but she had her doubts.

I find it really sad and pathetic that Ghost Ryder is getting a sequel but this film didn't. It's just.. hard to believe.

Cheap crap makes cheap sequels. Just the way it goes, I'm afraid.
