I hate to say it but I was a big Batman fan (the silly 60s TV show) when I was a kid. I remember seeing some of the original Superman TV episodes back then but I didn't like them nearly as much as Batman.

I loved the Christopher Reeves Superman movies when they originally came out. I even saw the first movie multiple times in the theater. I was so excited that Clark got to tell Lois how he felt about her in the second film. When I re-watched these films recently with my daughter, they seemed a bit slow.

I saw Superman Returns in the theater before re-visiting Lois & Clark. I didn't really like it. It seemed flat.

I haven't tried Smallville. I think Lois & Clark is a tough act to follow.

Hopefully the new film will be intersting.
