The efforts of SaveSuperman.com have recently been mentioned in Variety.com's comic/film blog "Bags and Boards".
Here's what they had to say... SUPERMAN FANS PROTEST: With the huge success of "Iron Man" and the subsequent announcement of release dates for a bunch of Marvel movies through 2011 has a lot of fans wondering how DC Comics and its parent company Warner Bros. have fallen so far behind in the comics movie derby. If Marvel can do "Iron Man," why can't DC/WB do something similar with say, The Flash or Green Lantern? Even with "The Dark Knight," for which everyone seems to have sky-high expectations, fans are down on DC movies. One site, www.savesuperman.com has started a petition and campaign aimed at convincing WB to completely reboot the Superman film franchise rather than proceed with another outing from director Bryan Singer and star Brandon Routh. A separate petition also is pushing "Smallville" star Tom Welling to play the Man of Steel. Taking a cue from the WGA's pencil tactic, fans also are contributing money to a campaign called "Stop the Monkey Business," which will send 6-inch stuffed monkeys to WB execs Alan Horn and Jeff Robinov. Monkeys go out with a sign that includes the sender's choice of a Superman logo or "Welling for Superman." To check us out, head on over to www.SaveSuperman.com and join the fight!! |

Wow! Motivated fans can make a difference. I bet DC is excited just to know they have such a fan base to work with. Coming up with a film that makes everybody happy probably worries them though.
Personally, I think all they need is a good story and push the limits of cinema in the special effects department. Superman should be like Star Wars. The effects of a Superman movie should push the envelope. Superman should have big big big booms and a lot of action all the way through. __________________ |
