Following a mysterious absence of several years, the Man of Steel comes back to Earth in the epic action-adventure Superman Returns, a soaring new chapter in the saga of one of the world’s most beloved superheroes. While an old enemy plots to render him powerless once and for all, Superman faces the heartbreaking realization that the woman he loves, Lois Lane, has moved on with her life. Or has she? Superman’s bittersweet return challenges him to bridge the distance between them while finding a place in a society that has learned to survive without him. In an attempt to protect the world he loves from cataclysmic destruction, Superman embarks on an epic journey of redemption that takes him from the depths of the ocean to the far reaches of outer space.

Ok, Superman Returns.

#3

There’s lots I like about this Superman film, and some things I don’t.

#4

I love the opening music. It is definitely Superman music.

There’s the destruction of Kypton.

#5

Cool graphics

#6

Creepy scene. Lex Luthor and the dying old lady.

#7

Nice touch, he drops his wedding ring in the glass with her dentures.

#8

Ah, the Kent farmhouse in Kansas.
And the gentle Martha Kent.

#9

The explosion in the back 40?
A repeat of one 30 years earlier?

#10

Clark has returned.

#11

That ship all alien crystal shaped is so strange.

#12

This Lex Luthor is pretty faithful to the traditional Lex.

A sociopath, a genius and insane.

#13

How did they find Superman’s Fortress of Solitude?

#14

Could never relate to the crystal motif.
So cold, so inorganic.

#15

Jor-El speaks from the past.
But this is not for Lex’s ears.
He’s a thief.

#16

Clark/Kal-El/Superman waits up.

#17

I think the best image of the Kent farmhouse is in Smallville.
I loved the vibrant primary colors that have always been part of Superman.

#18

Brandon Routh to me looks the most like the comic book Superman.
That cleft chin - wow.

#19

Clark went to look for any survivors of Krypton. He found only destruction.

#20

Clark returning to the Daily Planet. Jimmy Olsen.
Fun scene.
