I'm sure it's not a done deal, but it seems they really are planning to do it.

I'm sure he's turning over in his grave.

why? its footage that was shot with him in it for a superman movie in the part they would use it for. If its in good shape, fits the storyline, and there's enough to cover the scenes they would end up shooting for it (without reusing parts and possibly putting a shitty voice dub over it) then i really fail to see why you have a problem with it.

only objection i could see is if they are planning on drastically altering the footage by inserting new actors and changing scenery, but that does not seem like it would be the case. so why wouldnt it work for flashbacks or as a holograph to talk to clark kent in his fortress of solitude since the article stated that supposedly Singer plans on use the same Krypton and Fortress of Solitude design as the first to movies.

being that its being done as a sequal to superman 1 & 2 i think it could work and might actually be good. the whole change of the actor playing superman is going to be a big enough change as it is that Singer keeping it in the 'same world' as the first two will help lessen that.

and they arent doing it with cgi like they did in sky captain, they are using stock footage from the filming of the first two films
