so pretty

Yes, I saw Superman Returns.
Brandon Routh, in some angles, looks so much like Christopher Reeve it's scary. And I think I've established how much I adore Parker Posey and Kevin Spacey, so I won't make more of it here.
It's got Sir Richard Branson (in a teeny part), so how can one possibly complain.
Okay, that's easy: it's... it's not super. In contrast to X-Men 3, Superman Returns is actually good. Whoever wrote the script (apparently the same people who wrote the first two X-Men movies), they wrote credible characters. For the most part.
And Bryan Singer? I like he's still a self-deprecating person, whose success hasn't completely invaded his brain.
I've never really been a Superman fan, but I did enjoy the movie.
If only for the plane sequence. :)

Oh, and I know it isn't just me, but the score and the title sequence? Felt like Star Wars. Which is a good thing.


And having seen the teaser for Spider-Man 3? Oh my. I think I want to see that. And that's something I didn't say about the first two.


England lost their chances at the World Cup. Heh. And David Beckham has stepped down as captain (finally).
Hmm.
Yes, I stayed up late Saturday night to watch what I can of the England-Portugal match. Okay, listen:
Becks and Cristiano in the same pitch. Can you blame me?
Mmmm...
By the way, I don't think it's fair that Becks brings his whole family to Germany on the team jet, given how they can afford their own ride.
And, Becks, I love you, but you're just not team captain material. You can be a good leader, sure, but not a team captain.


DivX avi? It's the best.


Brodie: It's impossible. Lois could never have Superman's baby. Do you think her fallopian tubes could handle his sperm? I guarantee he blows a load like a shotgun right through her back. What about her womb ? You think it's strong enough to carry his child?
TS: Sure. Why not?
Brodie: He's an alien, for christ's sake! His kryptonian biological makeup is enhanced by Earth's yellow sun. If Lois gets a tan, the kid could kick right through her stomach. Only someone like Wonder Woman has a strong-enough uterus to carry his kid. Only way he could bang regular chicks is with a kryptonite condom, but that would kill him.

Heh. Wonder Woman.
