Yes... Just,yes.
The character is big and barrel chested, from the first time he's ever drawn it's been this way. Reeves was neither of those things.
Either way, it was lame, and didn't work, and not a power Superman has.

...?
the guy was 6' 4" and was 220-something pounds of muscle. When people think of Superman they still think of Chris.

Christopher Reeve doesn't look like Superman, Superman looks like Christopher Reeve

Too Skinny, and his shoulders aren't broad enough.
You're officially trolling now.

Hype for the trailer.

Look at how wide his neck was, dude was swole.
And that lycra suit hides nothing. Unlike the padded, vein-laced suit Cavill's wearing (I know he's jacked)

Yeah, I mean Cavill looks like the toughest Superman to date, but let's be real here: Chris was a friggin' machine in terms of fitness and size. Any bigger and he would've started looking like a wrestler or something.

No I'm not.
Are you trying to say Reeves isn't skinny and that he has broad shoulders?
At least I can state why he doesn't look the part for me as opposed to just posting a photo and a question mark.
Superman should have an imposing physique, something closer to what Chris Hemsworth had going on in Thor. Don't even try to say Reeves had a similar body to him. It's not even close.
I think for most of you, they could throw anyone who was skinny and had a spit curl into the suit and it'd look the part for you.
That's about normal now for a big summer film.

Yes. I posted about his size in my posts on this very page.
This, is skinny.
This is what the world thinks Superman looks like.
Chris Reeve was, again, 6 foot four inches of muscle. Someone like Hemsworth would've looked like a pro wrestler in that suit and stupid in the Clark Kent getup. This is coming from a ugy who's really excited to see a tougher looking Superman in Man of Steel, too, but c'mon. Reeve WAS Superman.

Why does this picture matter at all? It's from a screentest.
It's to demonstrate what Chris Reeve looked like when he was actually skinny and small.
Ha, sorry, I thought you were the one saying that Reeve was too skinny in the movie.

Christoper Reeves was the perfect Superman it's just a shame that the films were all terrible (Well I guess Superman 2 is ok) and worse yet they somehow influenced the comics to make them terrible. It wasn't until very recently that Grant Morrison started giving a fresh take on Superman.
I don't understand why Lex Luthor is constantly wearing wigs and is some sleezy real estate swindler or why they had to make up charecters like SunMan and whatever the fuck was going on in Superman 3 rather than actually base it off the comics.

The first two movies were great, it's the third and fourth that are absolutely wretched. And the reason they didn't stick closer to the comics is because the producers, and owners of the property rights at the time, didn't know shit about comics. The Salkinds just saw it as a great money maker.

Reeves has such a charmismatic presence, and the music just makes it magic. Routh, however, had the charisma of wet flannel

If you smell burning, it's probably the generators acting up. Report it anyway.
Where will the trailer be posted? Anyone know? And is it exactly 12pm EST?

The 90s cartoon Timm & Dini did was pretty spectacular. A bit shy of the perfection Batman was at the time, but it actually accomplished one thing the Batman show never did: continuity.
The entire show built into a really strong finale- the best for any super hero show imo.
I dug Routh and what he did with the role. He was a bit younger than he should have been, but otherwise I think he made some scenes pretty excellent, particularly his Clark Kent. He nailed this.

Should we wait before posting a thread until he has it on his site? You know, supporting a fellow gaffer and all that?
