I liked Routh as well, but one thing Cavill has going for him is bulk. Superman has been interpreted differently over the years, but he has usually been a WWE-looking, 'roided up freak. From that POV, Cavill wins.

What is amusing is Routh bulked up after playing Superman.
Haven't watched the trailer yet, waiting to see it on the big screen first.
But it is very very tempting.

Cavill is pretty lanky. He's in good shape, but not hulked out. Routh on the other hand, was showing ribs through the suit.

I'm sure I'll be pre-ordering the Superman and Zod as 1:6. Will have to see what other characters are revealed. If HT does a 1:4 or Sideshow does a PF I'll likely pick up as well.
He's not Triple H, but you think this is lanky?
He probably gives Hemsworth's Thor a run for his money in bulk.

Yup. Same as Bale's Batman. Thor wasn't all that big either.
You so crazy.

He is not a big guy but well built.
Then again, Superman doesn't need to be big meathead.

Exactly.
It's my cold Martian blood. 17 degrees here this morning. Makes me loopy.

Cavill is a big guy in great shape, but super ripped.

I think he put on an additional 10-15 pounds of muscle after filming that.

Everytime on trailer #2 I get chills when you see his cape and red boots stepping outside on the icy ground. Lots of pressure on DC to make this iconic character come back to life. I get tired of hearing Christopher this...Christopher that...no one can replace him...almost like then lets not make anymore superman movie.
Oh and one more thing! I don't think Hot Toys will show the full thing until at least the same week the movie releases.

And Cavill doesn't? I think he fits the role well, in terms of looks and body size.
