Oh no...
Bryan Singer, the film's gay director and responsible for The Usual Suspects and the first two X-Men movies, compounded the anxiety last week by describing Superman Returns as a "chick flick about a superhero seen from a woman's perspective, with qualities you'd want in a husband". The woman is Lois Lane, played by Kate Bosworth.
I've avoided commercials and previews for Superman Returns because I want to go in fresh. But this article about how metrosexual Superman is certainly has me nervous. They better not have messed with my Man of Steel.
And look at all the money wasted! Man. Nicolas Cage got $27 million for nothing? Ugh.

It was kind of hard for me to judge, though. I've never really gotten into Superman; I always thought that Marvel comics kicked the butt of anything by D.C.
