If jet-powered gorillas are for lames then I never want to be un-lame.

The absolute lack of joy is what made Man of Steel so disappointing. Superman Returns might be a mess, but it had at least one scene that made me want to stand up and cheer.

Oh good, another analysis of Superman. I just hope this one is by someone who actually knows something about the character. As a fan, I am tired of facile, obvious articles about superheroes. Now to read it and have all my biases confirmed.
