Blue tights and red underpants are in once again!

After the local release of the new Superman movie Superman Returns, I wondered if poeple would actually start a Superman-inspired fashion statement. Thankfully they stayed with the cute white shirts embelishing the iconic-"S" symbol and not the spandex blue tights with red hipsters sewn on top... I shiver at the thought. I hope instead to see more of the Lex Luthor-inspired clothing. Snazzy and sinister work well together.

Speaking of, I am trully pleased with how Kevin Spacey portrayed Lex Luthor. He's a sinister, diabolically funny, and bald works for him. But personally the title still falls on Gene Hackman's lap, Kevin just dresses better. I vaguely remember the 1978 and 1980 Superman movies but this movie does tie in as the "prefferred" part 3.

Strangely enough, after watching the movie last Saturday, i was plagued by last song sydrome of Bonnie Tyler's Holding Out for a Hero. I blame this on the latest Jack Black movie Nacho Libre. I'll reserve my comments for that movie when it comes out.

Btw, here's my friend's more length review of the film: Superman Returns
