"Look, Up In the Sky!"

That's right, folks. Finally, the Superman Returns trailer is here. Check it out, it's fucking awesome.

Things to look for:

  1. Kevin Spacey, awesome as Lex Luthor. I have to admit that I had my doubts, especially when I heard that Kevin was modeling his Luthor after Gene Hackman from the Christopher Reeve movies. Hackman, while generally awesome, sucked balls as Luthor. He was too campy. Spacey, though, seems to have taken Hackman's Luthor and turned it up a few notches, making him crazy and diabolic. Sweet.
  2. Kate Bosworth as Lois Lane. I have to say that this is leaving me a little bit iffy right now. I think she'll still be better than Margot Kidder, though.
  3. The flying. I think that this trailer, on a computer screen, probably doesn't do the flying justice. I will say, though, that some of the scenes (like the one where Superman is going after the plane) look awesome, but others (like where Superman lands in front of Luthor) look not so great. Hopefully, it'll be better on the big screen.
  4. Brandon Routh as Clark Kent. Seems fine. Not as meek (so far) as the Christopher Reeve Clark, which I regard as a good thing. Clark Kent is Superman's secret identity, but that doesn't mean he has to be a giant pussy.
  5. Brandon Rought as SUPERMAN. Excellent. Just fucking excellent. I think (gasp) he might be better that Christopher Reeve. I mean, check this out:
  6. My favorite part so far, the part that actually gave me goosebumps: the classic John Williams Superman Theme. A Superman movie would not have been complete without it, I'm glad it's there.

Perhaps she already has had sex with him...and maybe it was in the back of your car.
