This is my 702nd entry! So belated happy 700th entry to me! \o/

I saw Superman Returns. I didn't much care for it. No spoilers in my thoughts (because it was a case of plot? what plot?) so I'm not going to cut them. Basically, Kate Bosworth can't act AND isn't pretty, so why she's getting work is beyond me. Brandon Routh - he DEFINITELY brings the pretty, and I mean like whoa (he's so adorable when confused! *pets*) but again, not so much with the talent. Has he heard of this thing called emotion? *sigh* You know what occurred to me? The kid reminded me of Lucas, from SPN ep 3, though it might have just been the floppy hair, and what i thought was "Oooh, what if Amy Acker played Lois Lane!" Cause honestly? She's got buckets more talent than Kate, and is loads prettier to boot. Why can't they cast WELL for these big budget things? It's not *that* hard. But yeah, that would have made the movie much more enjoyable, and also if the kid who played Lucas could have played the kid in the movie I would have been a happy camper.

In news of the very very sad, Sarah (um, the [livejournal.com profile] candlesandcloth one, from Arkansas - aka my sekrit lesbian lover with whom I'm going to elope at some point in the future and whom I love to tiny tiny bits) can't come to WinchesterCon :(:(:( I was SO looking forward to molesting meeting her. Like, a lot. Of course WinCon will still be mindblowingly awesome (MonaErinSarahCassiJackiLauraJaidaNanFaithJennifer I can't wait to meet you ALL! And MORE!) but I am very sad that she won't be there to bring it up to previously unheard of levels of AWESOME. I will just have to stalk her down some other way. Le sigh.

Sorry for the rambly entries. I'm at work waiting for an artery to equilibrate! *hands* Now, back to some jsquared porn! \o/

(Look, pretty Katie!)

Well, I thought Brandon Routh did a great job, personally. *shrugs*

But I pretty much agree with you on Kate Bosworth. Total mis-cast. Just wrong wrong wrong. And the reason I HAD to reply to your post was that after the second time I saw the movie, we were discussing who would have been a better Lois Lane and the first person I said was, AMY ACKER. Heh. Because she's just that awesome.

Well the problem may be that I've never seen anything Superman related before. My cousin Meg told me that Brandon had Superman down pat, imitated the style perfectly, but... he didn't make me feel anything. So maybe it's just that I don't know the character.

Hee! Amy Acker wins \o/

Never seen anything Superman related before? As in never ever? Like NEVER? o_O

That astounds me for some reason! I mean, I can see some people not being fans of the whole Superman thing, but you'd think you would have caught one of the Christopher Reeve movies on TV by accident or something. LOL. It's like when we were at my uncle's house a few weeks ago and he confessed he had never seen a Star Wars movie, and the entire family stared at him like he was insane.

I am like... your opposite. Because I saw the Reeve movies about a million times when I was growing up, watched Superboy, Lois and Clark and now Smallville. I love me some Clark Kent.

Nope, I can't ever recall seeing even a few minutes of one of the Superman movies! It is weird, isn't it? And as for Smallville, all I've seen is a few slashy moments between Lex and Clark, lol. I have seen all the Star Wars though, so I'm not a TOTAL loser ;)

So we're agreed then re: Superman Returns, hee. ;D I think people are liking Routh because he was good at copying Reeves for the most part. Whether that was directing or his own choice, he isn't going to *be* Reeves, so I would have liked to see maybe a nod to that and then some take of his own on the character.

But whatever. Bosworth still would have been there to annoy me, so it wouldn't have fixed much, lol. ;P
