jainaJust home from seeing Superman Returns.
I'll tell you up front-- when it comes to superheroes, I'm a Batman girl all the way. Superman was always too goody-two-shoes for me. But oh man, I loved this movie. I just adored it. I want to see it again immediately RIGHT NOW. The new Superman guy was great. KEVIN SPACEY HOLY CRAP. Just amazing. The kid was absolutely perfect, adorable and funny where needed and almost never annoying. And poor Cyclops, just once I'd like to see him be first choice for his girl, you know? Really dug all the father-son stuff. That'll pull me in every time for sure. Daddy!Supes = awwww.
Okay, now where is all the Batman Begins-Superman Returns crossover fic? Because there has to be some. Really, really has to be some. Cause in the movie they were like "Superman spotted in Gotham..." and you know Christian Bale was all "Get the fuck out of my city, I'm the goddamn Batman." Actually you know what would be even awesomer? A Batman Begins-verse Batclan, with a Robin and Batgirl and all, and the new Superman, and also the new Wonder Woman (who hasn't even been cast, COME ON JOSS), all in the same movie. That would be MADE OF AWESOME.
I totally loved the costuming in the movie. I think my favorite part was Lex in those great suits (brown corduroy!)-- but with the pants tucked into boots. Gave him much more of an adventuring-villain feel, less of a corporate-villain feel. Kitty's retro dresses and hats were just fantastic. Jimmy in checked shirts and bow ties! And I wish to own the shoes Lois kicked off when she went flying with Superman.

Yeah. I think we women are going to have a hard time deciding which film to watch over and over this summer: Superman or Pirates.....
