Supes is definitely a product of a different era, but he’s also pretty iconic. It’s hard to not want to try a Superman project.

Some properties are so iconic it’s almost impossible to touch them, but they just did a Mickey Mouse graphic novel that was stunning, when was the last time anyone could say that about Mickey Mouse?
I heavily disagree, I love almost all of the Superman comics I’ve read. But I don’t trust DC to make a good movie, especially at this point in the genre’s lifespan.
I don’t know, it’s hard to be optimistic with high budget movies these days.
Oh I was implying it would be terrible. Superman is the most boring character ever put to paper in my opinion. But I don’t even like superheroes much.
