First pics of Brandon Routh as Clark Kent
 

Looky!
Although I don't really like Superman I think this movie could be really interesting. And Brandon Routh really looks a bit like Christopher Reeve's Clark on those pics.

He looks alright. Somethin' about the kid's eyes have always bothered me. He always looked stoned.

The thing with his eyes......he looks more like Reeves than he normally does......


Almost spookular.....

:o That guy doesn't look like a good Clark Kent, but that is just my opinion...

I don't know if it's the hair or what, but he really does have a Reeves-ness to him.

I was a little disappointed that this would be a sequel to Superman II, but chances are they'll make it work. Still, he's kinda small for Superman.

Really? I thought he looked rather tall on those pics. The only thing I really don't get is why they casted such a young actor since this movie is supposed to take place 6 years after Superman II.

They definitely need to beef him up quite a bit more.

Well, it was the same problem with Reeves. Sure, he was tall, but he wasn't buff-looking. And in the comics Superman is huge.

I don't want them to cast a pro wrestler or anything like that, but beef up the actor a bit more.

I think I read somewhere that the Superman suit would include padding, so as Superman, he would look more muscular.

Padding? Why doesn't he just work out and bulk up? But man he does look like Reeve's Clark. :o

I think they're trying to achieve a 'Clark = skinny, Supes = bulky' effect.

Or maybe he's just lazy. I dunno.

What the **** is wrong with his upper lip? It looks like he has a mustache made of skin.

I'm not sure why so many are making a fuss about his size...
Doesn't his super-strength come from the power of the sun and not from his own physical form?

I honestly see nothing wrong with him. He looks to be in perfect, heathy shape to me.


I never understood why a super-hero needs to be hulking to be heroic....

Superman needs to be big because that's a part of the character. Superman is tall, muscular, caucasian with slick black hair, wears a blue spandex jumpsuit with a yellow belt, red briefs, boots and cape, and most importantly, he wears his signature "S-Shield" insignia on his chest and on the back of his cape. It's just the way Superman has always looked, simple as that. And when it comes to Superman, unlike say... Batman or the X-Men who have both had countless different looks, fans have never been as forgiving when it comes to changing the way he looks. I've heard stories of people being pissed off about his boots having laces in Lois and Clark, and even being angry that his belt buckle was square instead of cirular.

I was wondering just that....is he keeping a mustashe and so it's a prostrtic to let him keep it.... :-? oh well....he does look very clark-esque...

Dad gum nitpicky fan-boys...probably gripped about spidey's organic webbing in the movies....oh crap...so did i...AHHHHH!!!

Oh yeah, concerning that S-Symbol... here it is. Story and ...

The S-Shield!

I think they'll change the colours... I hope they change the colours to something like this:

Yea, that shield is beautiful. I'm positive the S-Shield on his costume will be red and yellow.

What's he trying to do??? Immitate Goofy or Moose Mason???? "Duh...Hi....Im Clark Kent.... duh..." :-?

Clark is muscular as well. It's just that when he's Clark he needs to be different. Different posture, stance. Makes him to be less imposing than he really is. Even if in the comics he still looks like some bodybuilder.

And I must say that "S" shield is beautiful.

That guy looks really really goofy.
