I tried to download the trailer last night but ran into problems. Will try again later today. I never thought it was a good idea to go with a "vague sequel" approach. Forgetting all that came before when they made Batman Begins was a stroke of genius that benefitted that film greatly. Cutting loose from the Superman films made circa 1978-1987 would be even better for a new Superman film. Of course, so would casting an actor who isn't uber-metrosexual looking - and it pains me to say it, but it's getting harder and harder to find American actors who AREN'T uber-metrosexual in appearance. This Routh guy looks like he escaped from the set of a Power Rangers spin off.

I always thought Superman had better chemistry with Wonder Woman.
