I understand your reservations. I think I'll still go see it myself. From what I've read and seen in the trailers I think I'll still enjoy it, especially the cinematography and soundtrack. I also suspect I'll really like Brandon Routh's portrayal of Superman, although I'd have loved to have seen Jim Caviezel in the part just for the sake of enraging the critics and the left. /grin
What gripes me is the insistence and determination of the Hollywood crowd to ram their agendas down our throats. It really detracts from the enjoyment of their product, and it's so unnecessary. I wish they'd just play it straight and stick to entertainment instead of preaching. They'd make more money that way, but they're too stupid and arrogant to see it.
With regard to Superman Returns, the flaws we've all pointed out and discussed on these threads are serious, but not fatal. It's still worth seeing.

I'll prolly see it, but not until it comes out on DVD. Redbox at McDonalds has DVD rentals for a $1.00.

Apparently, it doesn't gripe you enough. When you vote with your wallet, you either support or object to the direction they are going. For this one, I'm also voting with MY wallet - I'm keeping it in my pocket. Hollyweird can go pound sand.
