Love it. Fleischer Supes was a boss and the animation still holds up today. It was so smooth.

Yeah, I never was a fan of him either. Always seemed too perfect and a littl 2 dimensional because of it. Mostly because he's too powerful and the only weaknesses I know of are Kryptonite and Louis being in danger, which gets old quickly...
I like that design too, his suit and look always were (and will be) iconic
Only reason I like him is because he was the start of the super heroes basically
Again, good work

To be honest, I am a fan of the 1st couple of Christopher Reeve Superman movies. Yes they do come across as old fashioned and a bit cheesy these days, but they did set the initial trend for future comic book films.
Strangely enough, Guillermo Del Toro wholeheartedly admits, that Superman 1 & 2 had a big influence on Hellboy

Oh they were good, great to watch as a kid
Nowadays I prefer the grittier comic book films though, like The Dark Knight, Wanted, Punisher: War Zone etc.
Really? Wow, never woulda guessed that!
Speaking of comic book films, I can't wait for Watchmen to come out on DVD!!!

Yeah, the directors cut of Watchmen should be very cool, although it'll be rather long, so I might view the movie in a sections, unless you have a super tough adamantium backside
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it'd be worth it though
Directors cut has the Freighter Of The Black Lagoon bit mixed into it like the book, so that'll be bad ass
I dont have an adamantium backside...but I could sit on my adamantium pencil
