Superman Returns

satyr_mi and I went and saw Superman Returns this afternoon.

Sequel. NOW. Mean it!

This movie was a complete homage to the Richard Donner Superman. There are beats throughout the film that play directly to beats in the first movie, and yet it manages to completely reinvent the character of Superman for the big screen. The humor is on, the drama is on, the action is on. It does have some cheeseball moments (and many of them were in teaser trailers for the movie) and it has some really emotional moments.

No spoilers. First for me. I won't even mention my favorite part, unless someone asks, so the comments may be totally spoiler heavy.
