I'm not sure if anyone here watches this show or not. I've been a Superman fan for a while now and I've always enjoyed this show, flaws and all. Even though I thought Superman Returns was good I still think they should have gone another route and used the cast from this show. Anyway......some fan of the show made a new opening for it. If they continued the show and moved locations after Clark becomes Superman this is how this person envisions they would do it. Just from a technical / editing standpoint I'm really impressed. The guy even uses SR footage and fits seamlessly in with the rest of the footage. Just thought I would share it with you guys. Here's the link.  www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYJCoL0FaZk&mode=related&search= |

I haven't been watching but I'm sure James Marsters is doing a wonderful job as Brainiac. He was magnificent as Spike in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.  |

I was also thinking they should have gone with Tom Welling for the movie but I liked how Brandon Routh played Superman as well.

Lot's of fun and destruction in that first episode.
I wish he would learn to fly though.

I don't know if Marsters will be back this season or not. At the end of last season they supposedly destroyed all of the copies of him running around.....
However the black ship wasn't destroyed and I believe that's what holds the main Brianiac "program" so I'm sure they may use him again at some point.
I liked Routh and I thought he did a good job playing Christopher Reeve's "Superman" but I would have rather had them use Tom Welling and Smallville's continuity to some extent.
Reeve guest starred on the show twice before his death and he basically passed the torch to Welling.
Reeve's / Routh's Superman were fine for the era those movies started in but it shouldn't have been "continued". I prefer the more modern approach Smallville has taken with the characters and Smallville's Lex is a heck of a lot more interesting to watch along with his father Lionel Luthor.
I just hope if we ever get to see Welling in the suit they give him a better one than the suit Routh wore in Superman Returns.

Agreed. Was so not a fan of that... "suit."  |

I actually really liked the new suit and Routh's version of Superman! Ken My problem with it mainly is the smaller \S/ and the color. The material and the new cut of the boots were fine. I'd just prefer to see Welling in something "new" if they ever show him in the suit and I want to see the bright red back with maybe a darker blue. I just got done watching tonights episode and he learned how to use his "super breathe" on this one. It was pretty cool......Oh and Green Arrow (out of costume) made his first appearance. |
