Superman Returns The Official Brandon Routh IS Superman thread.

[IT is Batgirl]

What kind of boots give you three inches in height? Frankestein monster's ones?

Routh's close to 6'3. So with those boots, he looks about 6'5.

Why the name change? ^

It was far too long.

You know they can also put lifts inside the boots that would add about 2-3 inches without making the boots platforms....you can buy them at most convenient stores.

 

[King Krypton]

You seem to know a lot about this, maybe you can help me out. I know Reeve, Christopher Reeve wore lifts that boosted him up, but I'm not sure what they boosted him to. Was Reeve naturally 6'3 and he went up to 6'4 or '5, or was he already 6'4?

Reeve was reportedly 6'4" in real life. Any lifts he may have worn would have put him over that.

Good luck, LOL.

So Reeve was most likely 6'5 with the lifts.

So Reeve was most likely 6'5 with the lifts.

I don't think Reeve's boots had lifts. Go watch STM. The boots are more like socks at the sole which is how it was drawn in most of the comics in the 50's 60's 70's. Brandon is only an inch or so shorter. They really don't need to add lifts unless they want to for a particular look. They can make him look taller with camera angles and stuff.

After having posted some info on the suit, I'm going to spill some stuff about BJ.

He stands around 6'5" as Superman due to the boots.

He looks like a, and I quote, a "gorilla." He has HUGE biceps. He is, and I quote again, "ginormous."

His abs are similar to Pitt's abs in "Fight Club" in that when he flexes, the ab muscles pop out. Even without the muscle suit underneat the actual suit, you can see his ab muscles through the suit when he flexes.

His hair as Superman won't look like Reeve's. Instead of one shellacked curl forced into an S, he will have one or two strands or pieces just placed on his forehead. It will look...natural. His hair won't be as short as Reeve's. As they haven't done Clark Kent tests yet, I have no idea how his hair/attire will look.

He will wear blue contacts. The blue is pretty hard to explain. It's a blue that doesn't contrast with the blue of the suit. Kinda hard to explain. Either way, it will be blue. It won't be some completely alien blue.

Many many people are impressed and excited with how big BJ is right now. He looks intimidating, even moreso when he puffs out his chest.

Two months before Routh was officially cast, Singer knew he was the guy. Remember that convo they had at Coffee Bean in LA? That was pretty much the deal-maker. Singer showed the WB Routh's test as CK with a certain Lois candidate (not Bosworth) and told them how important it was to have Routh cast as Supes/CK. We know who the studio choices were...

So much for him being smaller than Reeve...

Ok when did batgirl see the suit?

 

[Dark Knight]

I'm counting on a third version!

yeah...so am i...

 

[Stephen K. Hone]

Ok when did batgirl see the suit?

I don't think she did. It was described to her. Enigma is describing it to us also. Sometimes stuff gets lost in the translation. Look at the kerfuffle over the Collar. If people knew the difference between a neckline, and a collar a lot of confusion could have been avoided!

?? So if the contacts don't contrast with the suit, then they are the same as the suit, No?? Or they compliment the suit? Yours sincerely Confused. Stephen BTW. If your contacts have seen him all done up as Supes, Surely they can give us a clue as to when WB will issue a picture?

 

[Pickle-El]

IIB, thanks for that.

He sounds like a friggin bodybuilder by this description.

That's a cool quote from Spacey! BTW I was thinking if Routh stands 6' 5" in the boots, that means (He is in real life 6' 2" or 6' 2.5") he has 2.5 to 3" heels. Those are pretty big heels. If Reeve was 6' 4" wouldn't an inch or so heel be sufficient? He is already pretty tall so this smacks of overkill imo.

How could the contacts know when WB will issue a picture when it's not even clear whether the description is for the final suit?

i like the way you design the buckle. i'm fine with it.

 

[Uncle Bingo]

Great Manips...I love them. Except for the Superman symbol on the belt.

The one constant in all the descriptions of the suit has been the symbol on the belt.....as much as some dont like the concept it's probably a good idea to start getting used to it, just for your own peace of mind .

 

[gdw]

Nothing really new hear but I hadn't seen this before. I found it in an oldish Mclains magazine.

I haven't seen this exact pic either.

Dammit, I'm having trouble uploading the pic.
I'll get it up in a bit.

could it be SUIT IN A BELT?





i'll get my coat

 

[bweurk]

I'll add to that list any spanish President...

Spain has no president, Spain has a king......

The man who rules Spain is their prime minister... if you meant you can't trust him because Spain retired their soldier from Irak, then you ay learn that a new prime minister has been elected, and that spanish people elected him because he said he would bring back spanish soldier....
