Superman Returns Who's Your Daddy? The Ultimate Jason Poll [Place your bets]

[Kane]

With only a few weeks into the film, how about a poll for the biggest question about 'Superman Returns'?

[Ah-nuld] "Who is your daddy and what does he do?"

Who's Jason's biological father? You can either vote for:

1) Richard White

2) Superman/Clark Kent/Kal-El

3) Neither (Incase you believe it's Lex, Jimmy, Perry, The force, etc...or Jason was created in a lab )


We can check back to this thread in a few weeks.

 

[Nivek]

As I posted in the "Who's your Daddy" spoiler thread, Singer flat out said it was Richard. Misdirection or whatever, Im leaning that way myself.

 

[Kane]

Mike D (SR writer) said the same thing. "Jason Christopher White is Richard's son'

 

[M.E.H.Z.E.B]

As much as I hate to say it, and believe it for that matter, it's Richard's and Lois'.

 

[LuvSupes]

Mike D (SR writer) said the same thing. "Jason Christopher White is Richard's son'

I think this is incorrect. The name "Jason Christopher White" came from "The Gospel: According to the Worlds Greatest Superhero" which is a horribly written, based on internet rumors type book. And Mike was responding to an individual spouting off "spoilers" from that trash book.

One part of the rumor in the book was that the name of the child was "Jason Christopher White", ie. JC. White , ie Jesus Christ White. And Mike debunked that.

In fact Mike specifically picked out the quotes "blood transfusions" and "Jason Christopher White" to debunk. What was interesting to me was that he didn't comment on the part of the quote that said that the child was Superman's. He could have debunked it, but that part he didn't.

 

[Kane]

I duno. The 'Christopher' part I could see as being sarcasm...I agree.

But he told alot of people I talked to that the child IS confirmed to be Richard's.

My money is still on Richard, I trust alot of this sources.

 

[afan]

I don't think SR will answer the question.

 

[MoreCowbell]

I think Clark is the biological father and I think Richard is the father in the same Jonathon is Clark's.

Perfect loop hole to get out of the "hey you lied, Clark is the father."

 

[Lightning54SC]

i still think when hes laying on his death bed and lois whispers into his ear...

Spoiler

"i just think she tells him she loves him and that NO one can or replace that and shes sorry for everythingand proceeds to call him Kal-el and also telling him she remembers everything"

 

[xwolverine2]

neither... this lois lane looks like a ****

 

[The Caped Knight]

The novel doesn't say right out Sups is the father, but the hint @ it a lot . So I say Sups is the father, and he doesn't know it .

 

[tallsy_1]

I would be completely shocked in Jason turned out to be Richard's. It runs against just about every dramatic rule in the book. I feel divided about who I want to be the father, if it's Supes, it's cliche. If it's Richard's, it somewhat undermines the Supes/Lois love. I voted for Supes. There's no point in having a question in the child's paternity, if he's not the father.

One thing I do know. They have to kill off Richard White in the sequel. There is no graceful way to have Lois leave a guy who took care of her and a child who isn't his. This is very different from JJ/MJ.

 

[Cinemaman]

He is Superman's and thats all.

 

[Nautica7mk]

I'd be disappointed if Superman isn't biologically Jason's father. So from everything I've read, I believe Jason is Superman's. If not... I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

 

[NotFadeAway]

Honestly if you ask me, and Im not trying to rag on the film, but this kid storyline was a bad move. It doesn't bother me personally, but I just don't think it will go over well. They still could have told a character driven love story about Lois moving on without the kid, ecspecially if the film is successful, then they have to include the kid in other films.

 

[M.O.Steel]

i think it's neither clark's or lois's, but richard from previous relationship, although, as we approach the date, seems more and more likely that the kid has more of role than that.

 

[true316]

edit

 

[MoreCowbell]

Close Vote (19-1%). That surprises me. The sad thing is we'll be probably debating this for another few years. Hopefully the movie is clearer then the book about Jason, but it's doubtful.

 

[Visionary]

Superman's.

So, this means every Superman sequel (from here on out) will have this bastard child wandering around with Lois, and somehow being apart of Clark's life, what an awful truth.

 

[Immortalfire]

He is not Kal-El Jr. Who his daddy is, remains to be seen.

 

[DvilDog]

Said this one weeks ago before i read the book. But its supes. Guys think for a sec about the timeline of things. Jason is 5. Supes has been gone 5 years. If Lois really loved him she wouldnt hop into the sack with some dude right after he left. I dont think there is any way its richards and lois's. The only other option is the one above, which i truly doubt, cause if it was Richards from a previous marriage it wouldnt be nearly such a big obstacle for supes. OF course thats just me i could be wrong.

 

[The Kid]

The child not biologically being lois' would nullify the idea of him being an obstacle for supes and I think that's not what singer wants. He wants this to be something that can't be undone relatively easily, I think. With a kid in the mix, supes faces his greatest challenge yet. To give up the woman he loves and wou ld stop time for, or break up a happy family for his own personal satisfaction.

I hope it's his and Richard is killed doing something heroic and maybe tells supes to take care of lois and the kid for him. No lois and superman relationship smells unthinkable... I can hardly imagine a supes without his lois lane to save, but hey it's a new millenium. stuff's going to change.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Superman/Clark Kent/Kal-El

 

[Steelsheen]

i thought it was already confirmed form a vareity of sources that Richard is the father of Jason?

so far the only source i've heard from that doesnt quite support this-- mostly because it says nothing about it-- is the novel, which many here knows that its based on an early version of the draft.

 

[Superfreak]

as stated in one of the so called earlier script reviews: I think it will be left up in the air. There will be no concrete answer either way. Things will be implied, but never defined.
