in his Serenity commentary, if you start your hero low engouh for him to go somewhere, you end up with Harrison Ford's Air Force One: a smart and tough president who when the chips are down he's smart and tough. That's not much of a character arc, now is it? Superman's always suffered from this, and the fact that they used kryptonite. Again. It's just boring. Supes' other lesser-known weakness, magic, only works if the production team makes the magic convincing to a modern audience, which is difficult to do, but variety is the spice of life, and there's other enemies in Supes' rogues gallery aside from Luthor and Brainiac. Ultimately, this latest attempt, twenty years in the making, is an old trick pony being trained to do the same old tricks by a committee of suited monkey lemmings. I'm sure it looks great, but I'd like to see something more than that. Crazy as that may sound.
