It was good, it wasn't as awesome as it should have been. But it was good.
I would have preferred a stand alone Superman film written by an actual comic writer. Not some poor continuation of a very old film series that not everyone in the world has seen.
If I was rich and made movies, I would want
Movie 1
- Origin scenes
- Lex Luthor as rich industrialist with power in Metropolis (I'm talking 1985 Luthor here)
- Lex using Kryptonian Tech to fuck over Superman. Oh I'm talking Birthright by Mark Waid baby
Movie 2
- Braniac
- Not the fleshy one but the evil robotic looking one. He could start out fleshy and mentalist and then turn into evil robot form.
Movie 3
- Metallo
- 60 foot tall Metallo oh baby yes
Movie 4
- Doomsday
--------------
I would like to put Bizarro in there somewhere... but he would prolly have to be a Lex created clone. Which would make it too much like Superman IV The Quest For Peace.
Maybe the introduction of Cadmus and STAR Labs would help... hmmm...
Also, I wanna see characters like Bibbo involved. STAR, Cadmus, the SCU. Maggie Sawyer... I want to see stuff from 1985 onwards.
man if only I was rich... I would so make the greatest Superman movie ever... I would get my brother to EP.

I think it's because Donner's Superman was the PERFECT Superman origin movie. Frankly I respect the fuck out of Singer for having the balls not to do a re-make like everybody else. He didn't try to re-do what was already perfectly fine like a bunch of other money-mongering, unoriginal shitheads out there.
But yes I can't wait for the sequel, hopefully we'll get a villain to match Supes in a more physical sense.

I think it was a good decision to make it a sequel rather than start again like they did with Batman Begins. Unlike Batman (Michael Keaton was pretty good, Val Kilmer was meh and George Clooney was a disaster) there is already a definitive Superman: Christopher Reeve, and the new guy played the role Reeve perfected brilliantly.
I love all the little hints to the first two movies as well.
Oh, and this scene:
"Wasn't there two of them?"
