Superman (casting, rumors, pix till release)

[Captaindemotion]

Shame Linday Lohan's life and career are in such disarray. I actually think with a hair-dye job, she might have been capable of giving a decent enough performance as Lois. Plus she's even got a comic character type name.

Hmm... interesting thought. She was great in Mean Girls and I think if she didn't self implode after that, she may have grown into a very capable actress. She seems to have a take charge quality and a lot of spunk that I relate with Lois, but like you say, she's in disarray and I don't think she's a capable actress anymore.

[Captaindemotion]

^ She's probably capable but no studio or insurance company would take the risk, particularly with such a huge tentpole event movie.

Superman: You got the sniffles, Lois?

Lois: <sniff> No.

Superman: Seem a little high strung.

Lois: Hey fuck you, Clark! What the hell is that supposed to <sniff> mean?

Superman: Oh nothing.

Lois: Don't you have some nuns or kids that need saving?

Superman: Nope. Not at the mo....<hears somebody calling for help> Oh wait! I'll be right back, Lois!

Lois: Thought he'd never leave...<as she takes a bump>

Superman: I HEARD THAT!!! <as he flies away>

Fuck this crap. I guess I'll not be enjoying it as much. I was rooting for Brandon Routh ever since Supes Returns. He certainly got the short end.

Same here- I LOVED Brandon Routh as Superman/Clark, and thought that he managed to act amazingly as both people-kind when he needed to be, and hard WHEN he has to be-not like the way most guys are in movies today. But everybody called him 'gay' due to the way he was in the movie and also due to the design of the costume-misplaced homophobia strikes again.

MY fear is that we will be getting a 'Wolverine' Superman, or an 'Arnold' Superman that is overly macho and tough, with a mindless plot consisting of Superman fighting a giant alien bug, just like Kevin Smith wanted.

Lindsay Lohan is a complete frack-up, and needs to get an education, as well as a lot of other things, first before she acts again.

My choices for Lois Lane

*Mia Kirchner

*Ashley Tisdale

*Lacey Chabert

*Scarlett Johansson

*Jewel Staite

*Summer Glau

*Eliza Dushku

*Sarah Michelle Gellar (if she wasn't so old)

*Kristen Stewart (will give her a chance to make up for being Bella Swan)

*Thora Birch ('cause she needs the fame just as much as Scarlett got!)

Definitely looks the part.

Well, she's younger than Mia Kirshner and Elizabeth Banks.

SMG for Lois.

This image shows you why.

[Professor Zoom]

Summer Glau? Seriously?

She has the voice of a 12 year old.

And she's not that good of an actor.

Thankfully, it's not going to be her. She won't even get close to being cast.

[Obiwanshinobi]

I think Summer Glau would be better suited for Lana Lang in the smallville portion of the movie.

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

Rebecca Hall would be a good Lois. She's the right age, has the right look, is a good actress, and can play a sparky, determined character.

She still doesn't seem 'like' Lois to me.

Summer Glau would is better left on TV. As a robot.
