I have to admit, I am a sucker for Superman. I can remember reading Superman comics as a child. I am looking forward to seeing the new movie. Daniel Pulliam at GetReligion.org has an interesting post on the religious themes in the new movie.UPDATE: David has another more recent post with some additional thoughts on the movie. He quotes Manohla Dargis of The New York Times:
Every era gets the superhero it deserves, or at least the one filmmakers think we want. For Mr. Singer that means a Superman who fights his foes in a scene that visually echoes the garden betrayal in “The Passion of the Christ” and even hangs in the air much as Jesus did on the cross.
