Lois & Clark Forums Forums General Discussion Off Topic Superman Movie

It hasnt seem to come up on this board like so many of the others that i read! But maybe some of you dont know about the superman movie they are planning to shoot! I guess most of you are just LnC fans and not Superman fans but im not sure i was just wondering your thoughts and opinions of the movie and casting!

There are many Superman fans here, I've been one for more years than you can imagine but what brings this message board together is mostly the fiction inspired by the television show version of Superman, Lois and Clark.

I was a fan of the first couple of Superman movies for a while, until I saw the interpretation that Lois and Clark gave the story, with a smart, attractive Clark Kent, a smart, savy Lois Lane and a partnership between them. Now any other version would be a let down for me.

I too was a superman fan long before Lois and Clark, and though this is my favorite interpretation of the characters, I loved the movies, especially the first one. We've talked a lot about the possibility of the new movie, but I'm personally starting to get bored of the whole thing. I'm beginning to think they're never going to make it, and I'm also beginning to think that might not be the worst thing in the world. I'm sure that if they ever do make it, I'll get excited again. But I've just decided not to worry about it until it's actually in production and close to being released. I'm sick of getting my hopes up and then hearing that it's been put on hold again. As for who I hope to be in it... I haven't really been impressed with any of the options yet. I was APPALLED by the Nicholas Cage idea. I'm not sure who I want, but I know it's not him. <G>

I, too, have always been a Superman fan.. In fact, I can't even remember not knowing about him...

I remember when I was six years old, when I lived in Syria and Israel, I used to be alone with my mom during the daytime. My brother, who's four years older than me, went to school and my dad was working. One day, I was left alone in the apartment for half an hour while my mom went shopping. Of course, things got pretty boring since I didn't care for the "toy of the month" anymore, and I couldn't leave the apartment without locking the door, which I didn't have the key to.

But after looking into the fridge and caught sight of the ketchup and the mustard, a brilliant idea formed itself in the mind of a six-year-old.

So, when my mom got home, there was a *HUGE* 'S' on the kitchen floor, made out of ketchup and mustard.

Heck, I even used to dress up as Superman, just walking around the neighbourhood and showing off at the playground...god, it was so pathetic. <g>

But I know that Lois & Clark is the real reason that I'm still fanatic about the hero. Dean and Teri put so much life into their characters, and the show is something that'll always be special to me.

Pelican (who wonders what she'd do today to express her fascination for Superman/Lois & Clark if fanfic didn't exist...yup, that would turn ugly! )

I had heard for a movie with Keanu Reeves. But neither he nor Nicholas Cage would be my choice. (I hate them both)

If it should be someone other than DC ( ) I'd go with Johnny Depp. Have you seen him with glasses in 'Nick Of Time'? I think he looks cute... someone post a picture, please! (please note that Johnny Depp is not one of my favourite actors)

As Trenna said, though, if it's not L&C...

See ya.

I'm sticking with the opinion that, if they ever make the movie, they should cast unknowns in it. I can't think of any major star who would fit the role well.

I wonder if they'd use John Williams' original theme...
