Please indulge my inner geek...

Please help me settle a dispute on another male dominated board.
Please vote on how you think the new Superman looks.
Do you think he is hot? Do you think the costume is nice? Do you think he looks like Christopher Reeve? Do you think his costume is as nice or nicer than Reeve's?
I know you guys aren't hard core comic book fans so thanks in advance.

Man, I need to find a smaller picture. Is there any way to shrink the size of an existing picture?
As a general rule, when you put anyone in head to toe spandex=not a good look.
I think he looks "affected." I don't like him at all.
Yes... I am bitter!!!
The new director is going to suck!!
Sorry for the guano... venting over!!! :P

Your hair, it's everywhere. Screaming infidelities, taking its wear.
Reeves looked better in his.
But, that may be because I was 10 when I watched the movies. I'll have to pull out the video and look at the cover again.
Yes, the guy is hot.
Do you think the costume is nice?
I think it looks like a classic Superman costume, which is dorky and effeminant (sp?)
Do you think he looks like Christopher Reeve?
Yes, only the guy in the picture is much cuter/hotter.
Do you think his costume is as nice or nicer than Reeve's?
A little better than Reeve's
I think they definitely, definitely could have done something better with the hair. It is very out of date. Personally I also would have liked a major costume update (a la Batman), but I know comic book people would probably be against that. I mean, I think old Superman and Batman fit in just fine back then, and new Batman fit in good with Gotham City in the new movies. I just don't picture "old Superman", which is what I consider those pictures to be, fitting into a movie with a modern-day setting.
I think the suit looks horrific, but the fan boys swear that laymen and women :roll: don't know what they are looking at anyway and they will like anything you put in front of them.
I definitely think the colors are off. The read is purple and the blue is too dark. Plus I think this guy is too little and skinny to play Superman. But I guess we shall see once the movie comes out.
It's hard to tell because it's a strange angle. I think he looks effeminate because of the head to toe spandex, and also because he looks like my effeminate (and gay) friend Mike.
Edit: Wait....this is the guy who played Jess on Gilmore Girls? No.... the pics don't look like him at all!

This cracked me up! We could say this for anyone - like FlavaFlav
He looks a little like Chris Noth's younger brother/cousin.... And I think that Chris Noth is really great looking.
(for those who don't remember, Noth played "Mr. Big" in SATC......)

Now you're taking me back to junior high! I used to LOVE PE.... And you're right, you could say that about anyone. But what I meant was, I don't like that pretty look like Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, this guy... and personally would NEVER date or marry someone with that look, but I can objectively see that they are attractive... know what I mean?
I knew what you meant - it just cracked me up when I saw it because I was like, "that could be the best PC answer I've ever seen about looks."
I'm going to add it to my sig line, and I'll just say "refer to my sig line" when questions about different guys' looks come up! Thanks!!!!!
heehee! I am in your sig line AND zmanzzzz's!
I agree. The colors are the first thing I noticed...ugly.
The guy is attractive. Not hot, though. He reminds me of Reeve a little.
not at all.
Do you think he looks like Christopher Reeve?
umm...no
Do you think his costume is as nice or nicer than Reeve's?
looks pretty close to Reeve's. but what's up w/ the black and red S?
i don't like that.
Some people are like Slinkies...
They're not really good for anything,
but they still bring a smile to your face when
you push them down a flight of stairs
The suit looks like classic Superman to me. He looks, padded, however. Wrong choice IMO.
Absolutely NOT. He has that whole Tom Cruise girly-look going on.
Do you think the costume is nice?
Not at all. It just looks really odd.
Do you think he looks like Christopher Reeve?
Yes, only the guy in the picture is skinnier and looks a lot less "natural" in that outfit, if anyone can look natural dressed like that.
Do you think his costume is as nice or nicer than Reeve's?
It looks the same, his body is just worse. He needs to much artificial looking padding.
