It probably would have been better to cut loose from all previous Superman outings and to go back to the comics for inspiration. The first two Superman movies were brilliant, but it seems the mixed approach to this movie will be its death-knell.
On one hand, they're using music from the original movies; voiceovers from Marlon Brando as Jor-El; and story continuity from the first two films; and on the other they're deciding to ditch Lex Luthor's wig (which is unimportant except for the fact that he wears them in the first two movies); designing Lois' clothes according to 1940s stylings (as opposed to say, 1970s/80s); telling Kate Bosworth not to watch the first two movies so that she doesn't consciously evoke Margot Kidder; and of course, casting different actors for the same roles (including a Superman who looks too young to be returning from anything, and a Lois Lane who looks too young for someone who's being returned to).
It's just going to mess with everyone's heads: same continuity + different actors + different approaches = ?
I predict that my thoughts upon leaving the cinema will be something like this: what exactly were they trying to do?
Exactly! Thank you! Thank God there are people who understand!
