Superman Returns Rate Kate Bosworth's performance as Lois Lane

Bosworth as Lois is a no-no. If they make a sequel get another actress for Lois
 
No, Bosworth was good. And for continuity sake who the hell would change in mid stream.
 
i liked what she did with the material...i didn't like the lois lane of the movie though.
 
she was okay, but she defninitly wasn't Teri Hatcher...

I felt Bosworth gave a very mature performance. I didn't think of her age at all. The problem was this Lois lacked spunk. She came off more spunky in the novel, but it looks like most of that either wasn't filmed or was cut. I did LOVE her interaction with Supes, and KB and BR have some really good chemistry...really good.

My problem was she was just...I don't missing something. I loved the direction of her character, but she seemed...joyless.
I have to agree. Lois Lane was always a fun characer, I always thought that Kal El fell in love with her because of that.
 
Kate didn't do much for me, despite being cuter than Margot Kidder (who also never did much for me).
 
Kate is a good Lois Lane, better than Margot Kidder at any rate. Lois is in emotional trouble and Kate shows that very good.
 
A little bit off topic but i couldn't help but bring this up. Its a little shocking to see the before-and-afters.

Extreme Measures
COVER STORY: Drastic thinness has become the beauty ideal – and it's having an alarming effect on girls everywhere
THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 28, 2006 06:00AM EST

In 2002, fresh off her Blue Crush breakthrough, the actress – a champion equestrian as a teen – appeared slender but fit. As a leading lady at a premiere in June, her face, bust, arms and waist were notably thinner in 2006.

At a party for designer Zac Posen in New York City on Sept. 14, the scene was fashion meets young Hollywood. There was Kate Bosworth looking whisper-thin in a black dress, dancing to Justin Timberlake's "SexyBack" and smoking cigarettes. There was the always minuscule Mary-Kate Olsen, who stopped by just long enough to puff a cigarette and pose for a few photos. At the center was Posen, 25, a current red-carpet favorite who has dressed a range of young actresses, from the plus-size Marissa Jaret Winokur to the sub-zero Bosworth. "I like women's bodies – I emphasize them in my clothing," Posen told PEOPLE on Sept. 21. "Healthy women are much sexier."

And yet the questions of who is healthy and what is sexy cut to the heart of a renewed debate that is currently raging everywhere from message boards to movie sets to modeling agencies. What makes this controversy new is that for the first time both designers and stars have been put on the defensive: In Hollywood, stylemakers like Bosworth, 23, and Nicole Richie, 25, are setting troubling new standards for thinness, while in the fashion world, frail-looking runway models drew gasps at New York City's Fashion Week.

"In the past, some young models have had issues with eating disorders – but they were rapidly singled out and left with very little options other than to address their problem," says David Bonnouvrier, head of DNA Model Management. "The latest trend of skinny models, however, has allowed many of these young women to continue working, living in total denial." Adds Dr. Ira Sacker, a Manhattan-based eating disorder specialist and the coauthor of Dying to Be Thin: "I have a lot of A-list celebrities as clients, both actresses and models, and what they are telling me is that the pressure to be thin has never been greater. Why? Because whoever is thinner gets the job, and the competition is enormous."

KATE BOSWORTH

THEN: Bosworth (left, in 2003), who has always maintained she's "naturally small," once worked out five hours a day to pack on close to 20 lbs. of muscle for her surfer girl role in Blue Crush.

NOW: She recently turned heads at New York's Fashion Week – not for her style, but for her startling frail look. An insider who saw the 23-year-old actress told PEOPLE, "She's so small, it's frightening."

Hideous. No other words come to mind.

And that article, proclaiming that look as the "beauty ideal" is laughable. To whom is this "ideal"? The females who do it to themselves? Just because these "actresses" choose to turn themselves into sickly-looking individuals, does not mean people find it attractive. The media shows picture after picture, and right away it is "assumed" that people like it. Sorry, it makes me sick to my stomach to see women who look like that.
 
oh god... what is she doing to herself?

Couldn't agree more.

This just goes to show how far off-base Hollywood, and the media, is when it comes to what people find "attractive".
 
Wow they went from semi-cute and even beautiful to aliens and corpses.
 
Yup. Look at Nicole Richie.:(

The sad thing is that a lot of these ladies are so desperate to stay in the public eye that they'll go continue to extreme lengths (unhealthy) to look this way.

It's an infatuation, a discease, kind of like my fixation on Cape Cod Reduced Fat Chips. :wow:
 
the problem is.. many women and especially kids wanna look like Kate did at that time. [irony]Haha, great, if Kate is going to be thinner and thinner, THEN they will talk about her, yea [/irony]

She can't get any thinner than she is now. Can she? When i see that it makes me want to order take out or something.
 
That post is misleading. I don't like the super skinny chicks, but come on. The first pic is where she purposefully put on weight for a role. Believe it or not SOME PEOPLE ARE NATURALLY SKINNY OMG. The media just wants to find skinny people to call anorexic.

Compare Renee Zellwegger(mispelled?) in Diary Jones movie to how she naturally looks and you can say she has lost too much weight.

Kate may have an eating disorder, but stop trying to force a story. Find me a non- Blue Crush picture where she isn't that skinny and I'll shut up.
