first look at new Superman
Edited on Fri Apr-22-05 05:44 PM by wyldwolf
...ok, try not to think of Christopher Reeve...

Man, I remember when I was 10 years old and saw the first publicity shot of Reeve as Superman...



Then, being a superman fan, I suffered through this:



...now, perhaps the second best looking Superman...

:shrug:

Unless Bill Clinton or Al Gore is the new Superman. Actually Al Gore could probably pull it off quite well!

18. I like him, too. He was Chris Reeve's first choice
however, rumor is the last ep of Smallville will tie into the new movie.

10. I do like the boots
The boots have a nice leathery look to them.

But it looks to me like he isn't sporting as much of a package as Reeve did. :-)

Not that I notice things like that. :-)

16. Is it me or does it look like they are REALLY padding the new
Superman's suit to make him look like he has muscles?

22. he does have muscles...
Edited on Fri Apr-22-05 05:50 PM by wyldwolf
the suit actually is color-shaded to hi-light the muscles.

24. Never saw a picture of him before
It just looked like they had molded the suit to give him the illusion of being more muscular.
