Re: The Man of Steel
I still like Hatcher best as Lois, with Durance a close second. Sure Durance is the hottest Lois, but I never liked how her character was shaped in the show. For a while I thought they were going to kill off Chloe (whom I loved!) and Clark would have realized how great Chloe was only after she was gone and perhaps had died in a way that he couldn't save her. Then Clark would meet Lois years later who was very much like Chloe and finally get to "make up" for what he lost with Chloe. But then they introduced Lois on the show and kinda wrecked the Supes mythos.
So then I thought, well, maybe Chloe will die () and Lois will take up her cause and become a reporter to honor Chloe. But that didn't happen either. She seemed to just kinda fall into it, which is a little lame since Lois is defined by being a reporter first and foremost. It wasn't just a career she just stumbled across.
As far as Kidder, I never liked her much. I thought she was very unattractive and I didn't see that much in her character either. However, when I saw all the other women audition for Lois in the DVD, many much prettier than Kidder, I saw how Kidder absolutely NAILED the audition. She was the standout and she added a quirkiness and charm to Lois that the others didn't have in the least. It was a landslide win for Kidder. So I have since gained respect for her performance.
