    If we have Superman, I hope we can have more action this time, maybe with a little Darkseid to the mix...

    Now that Hobbit has lost it's director, I think Warners will probably move Superman to December 2012.

    He said Superman. Not whatever Smallville is.

    I think Superman around Christmas time would do good. StarTrek was going to be realesed on Christmas. Avatar is a perfect example. If it does well, they will release the sequel in the summer. Wasent one of the Toy Story's released in winter?

    No reports of Darkseid which I why I believe Broccoli referenced "Smallville Season Ten" which seems like the villain for the finale season will be Darkseid...and that article I referred to before did not indicate Darkseid. Only Luthor and Brainiac. We'll have to wait of course for further news about the plot and casting.

    I heard somewhere that before Jaws came out...Summer was considered a dead time for movies as everyone was outside.
    Unless you live somewhere very cold, then yeah, the date shouldn't matter about seeing a movie.

    As silly as it sounds I just hope the "Superman" music and opening sequence are used...at least.

    Beyond Antares was the one who was hoping for Darkseid.

    Hopefully Nolan doesn't try to impart the same sense of 'realism' on the Superman franchise as he did Batman.

    Maybe he will zig when we think he's going to zag.

    I really don't care for Darkseid as a villain. I like the idea of Lex & Brainiac...maybe a lesser know villain thrown in just for fans.

    JMHO.

    I think once casting is out the way...this will put us all at ease.

    As long as it comes out before the 21st. I think the whole world has plans that day.

    Ah, so we'll have our own post-crisis.

    I can get behind that.

    Having Brainiac in the film will satisfy the over-the-top CGI requirement that seems to be prevalent in today's movies. But I think it would be a good idea to have more than one villain. Despite the massive camp in Superman 2, having the Kryptonians and Luthor together really jazzed it up.

    Still, 2012 seems like a long time to wait. I'd rather they bring back the old serials. Have 45 minute mini-adventures that come out every 6 months or so attached to other movies.

    Nowadays those are called "webisodes" . . . or television.
