[BareKnucklez]

Thus proving gayness is genetic.

lol :::runs back in the closet:::

 

[The Kid]

No more gay jokes.

Even if superman and Jimmy kiss each other passionately in this movie, I'll still like it. He has to find someone now that Lois is with that Richard guy.

If Jimmy & Clark kiss in this movie Singer, Routh better leave america because they will be lynched! lol

 

[Milkman95]

lol the WB are trying to build his Star status up so people won't be so scared of how bad his acting might be when the movie hits.
Still they can do that all they want the facts are the facts, and dude got fired for poor acting from a bad soap... That's just the facts, and that alone is scary enough.
Don't care how much Singer liked him, and stuff... Also doesnt help any that everything he's done before has been on MTV or short cameos on real bad tv shows like Will & Grace & Gilmore Girls... Yes I said REAL BAD tv shows.
Sorry I don't like either show... Seen both don't like either.
Seen both his cameos on those shows, and his acting was pretty bad in both... While he only had 1 line in Will & Grace he looked real bad in Gilmore Girls.
Looked NOTHING like Superman also lol...

A few things:

-It's okay to have a constructive, negative opinion about Routh but this is trolling. You could even joke about it and that's obviously okay as well. I do enough of that on the SV boards, so I know.

-He's an unknown, of course WB will try to boost his status. They did the same thing and had the same problem with Reeve.

-Other talented actors out there today have also been fired early in their careers.

-Don't care how much Singer liked him? Well, he's the professional, and a very talented one at that. Out of all the tapes and auditions Singer watched from the other failed productions, he picked Routh. I think I'll take his word like I did with Nolan about some of the questionable casting choices he made in BB.

-Finally, I'm glad you can tell by one line Routh has said here and there on different comedy shows, that's some great ability..........

So having an opinion is against the law round these parts?

I never said anything which I said "was fact" no those were my opinions, and that's not trolling... But if you do enough trolling to know what is, and what's not then I won't argue with you because then I will be trolling.

I also understand that he's an unknown, and thats why they are doing all these cameos at award shows, and mags, and stuff... That's all I was pointing out they were trying to get him known so they could sell him to the public as the new Superman.
Especially since there was negative buzz surrounding this movie from the casting of Routh... They don't want this ship to sink so they will sell him as hard as they can, and that's really the only way your going to build hype with fans so this is nothing new.. Every big movie does this when they have unknown actors in leading roles.

As for BATMAN BEGINS, weird because I never questioned any of Nolans casting choices for Batman Begins... Well Katie Holmes maybe heh but other then that I was 100% behind him with his choices.

I like some of the cast for SR, and I didn't say that im boycotting the movie lol I will be there opening night in the same line as you guys. So whatever call it trollin I was just givin my opinion just like others were on here...
I guess it's trollin when it's a sort of negative post but if its kissing Routh's buttocks then it's not... lol Funny.

I guess it wasn't trolling, that's more like saying a few words or just a sentence without explaining anything.

As for BATMAN BEGINS, weird because I never questioned any of Nolans casting choices for Batman Begins... Well Katie Holmes maybe heh but other then that I was 100% behind him with his choices.

Cillian Murphy, Ken Watanabe, and Katie Holmes - just my opinion of course. It all turned out great in the end.

Nah, see above. Trolling can be kissing his butt as well, it's all in the way it's worded of course.

 

[AgentPat]

TW? Is that this Tom Welling fellow everyone keeps going on about? You mean the actor who is playing Clark Kent and not Superman right? Seems like a charming fellow.

Hey! Watch out. I know where you live!

 

[BareKnucklez]

Of course you can.

lol

Cillian Murphy, Ken Watanabe, and Katie Holmes - just my opinion of course. It all turned out great in the end.

yea Holmes im sure was on everyones negative list when she was cast... Cillian Murphy I was ok with but wasnt thrilled or mad or anything... He's a good actor so I was fine with his casting.
As for Ken Watanabe that was AWSOME casting!
I had a feeling that he wasn't Ras when he died early in the film so it didnt throw me off or anything... But I liked him being cast in the movie alot.

Nah, see above. Trolling can be kissing his butt as well, it's all in the way it's worded of course.

lol I have never seen anyone call someone a troll here for kissing Routh butt... But W/E your the expert not me lol...

 

[Nightwing1977]

It's like how Harrison Ford looked better as Indy in Temple of Doom than Raiders.

Funny you should mention Harrison Ford there, 'cause the first time I seen this pic of Routh before I saw your comments, I was saying Routh look like Ford there. How ironic!

And I hope no TW fans come over here & go ballistic that Routh is on the magazine & Tommy boy isn't.

*try to hide from Agent Pat*

 

[Pickle-El]

ding ding ding

yup, and if this is all the hype machine has then thats pretty sad...
They keep trying to sell him to the public by having him come out in such things as celebrity basketball games, and award shows where he's given awards which were paid for by the WB...This is no diffrent, and it's why he's on the list. Im not gay but I can tell when another guy is a handsome guy, and Routh is one weird looking guy... He isn't handsome at all, and FAR from Beautiful.

But Because the WB want to make sure that people like this guy by the time the movie comes out they pay for buzz like this... Also since there has been so much negative buzz around this project that they will try to earn fan support anyway they can to try, and save this ship before it sinks on june 30.

Ahhhhh, want a hug?

I can feel you slipping....*maniacal laugh*

 

[Captain Kirk]

I like the fact that Routh appears to genuinely be honored to play Superman.I mean even in that interview he wasn't moaning and belittleing the character or the source material. He even liked wearing the suit. Josh Hartnet,Welling ,and all these other bozos think that its beneath them to play Superman? So they persue 'better' roles like drug dealers, or 'brokeback cowboys'...feh...sad So I am glad to have Routh.

This would be nice I been having sort of a bad day...

Yeah this is true...

Have a beer!

Yeah this is true...

It's one of the reasons I like Routh so far...he isn't oblivious to the Superman mythology in anyway.

 

[Steelsheen]

i want to believe! i SO want to believe

 

[AgentPat]

And I hope no TW fans come over here & go ballistic that Routh is on the magazine & Tommy boy isn't.

*try to hide from Agent Pat*

I *think* Mr. W. was already on that list, probably back around the second season.

Of course, I don't need a magazine to tell me whose beautiful.

That said, it IS fascinating to see how much the Brothers are pushing Mr. R. right now. Must be getting down to the wire.

 

[Asgard]

I predict Brandon will soon join the Church of Scientology and will become Tom Cruise's new body after they transfer his consciousness.

It's all according to the prophecies...

 

[Nightwing1977]

I wonder where you got that face with the hands on it head btw. It should be part of the Smiles here.

Of course, I don't need a magazine to tell me whose beautiful.

Of course not! After all, beauty is in the eye of the beyonder. I'm sure that work for Routh too. And this coming from a straight guy here who don't find men handsome.

That said, it IS fascinating to see how much the Brothers are pushing Mr. R. right now. Must be getting down to the wire.

Uh....who are the brothers you're refering to?

 

[Hunter Rider]

Great........I guess

 

[Mary]

Cool, and great pic.

Good point. Not that it was necessary but I also appreciate that Routh seemed to have a love for the character previous to getting the role. He already had plenty of Superman knowledge

Yes, becasue playing a Superman is a great way to further your career, I don't remember Reeve or Cain being in ANYTHING else that was worth watching

 

[The Kid]

well reeve got messed up by an accident so who knows what he'd have done if that crap never happened. He's a high quality actor with loads of class. There's no way his career would sink because he played superman.

Citizen Caine still gets work from time to time. I don't think he's as serious an actor as reeve was though. I don't know much about him, but reeve went to super acting school and did some great movies with some big stars in them. Caine's been on las vegas, a life time movie, a sci fi movie, and superman show. That's all I know about him.

Routh knows the recognition will get him better auditions and maybe make those guys who sit there while you try to read a script for them, maybe take a second look at him if he's actually good in superman at least.
