Well we need to get rid of the suit for starters. Looks too ***gy.
And we don't want to see him fly.
We will need to have a battle at his castle. Where his guards fight some people who try to bust in.
Then we are going to need to see superman wrasstle a polar bear.
And fight a giant spider.
That's what we need from a new superman movie.
Ah, yes. Those whimsical days of the Great Depression and rise of fascism. *bittersweet sigh* Why does the world nowadays have to be so "gritty and realistic" compared to the good old days?
I guess I just have an easier time believing a man can fly than believing he'd choose to wear a pair of knee-high red boots and red underwear over his skin-tight blue suit, finished with a canary yellow belt. At least they've addressed some of those issues in Man of Steel.
I love Superman. But the costume is whimsical 1930's, somewhat jarring and unbelievable today. Unless you're watching a cartoon.
Imagine a Batman movie where the character is dressed like in (most of) the comics. It would look kind of ridiculous. Times change and these characters change too.
In this case, the suit doesn't make the man.
BTW, I didn't mean to imply that life in the 30's was whimsical, but that the depiction of the character in the comics was. The traditional character depiction is very much a product of that time.

Still one of my favourite figures! Can't wait to see what the 1/6th scale Man of Steel figure will look like standing next to Reeve
