I watched the Superman trailer recently, and was very disappointed. It looks like they’re basically writing (yet another) sequel to the ‘70s & ‘80s movies instead of finding their own vision. That was over 20 years ago, guys. There’s been a lot of character development in the Superman genre. Frankly, if they were going to do something derivative, they should be looking at the Superman animated series. It had a much more “modern” view of Superman, Lois Lane, and Metropolis as a whole. While, I’m sure the movie will do well (they’re already planning the sequel!), I was hoping for more of a “Batman Begins” approach, where they would show off a new facet of the Superman character.

Oh well. That’s Hollywood for you.
