Before Superman Returns.

This is a repost from another message board I post on. I am not the aurthor of the origional post. I had a good laugh watching the link to this video.

I'm guessing some (if not most) of you have seen "An Evening with Kevin Smith"...but even if you have (and most importantly, if you haven't) here is a link to a segment from the movie where Kevin Smith is asked about what came before Superman Returns.

For those who don't know, Kevin Smith was hired to write a new Superman movie back in 97, with Nicolas Cage attached as the Man of Steel, and Tim Burton slated to direct...The link above gives you the full account on Superman Lives from Kevin Smith's point of view...which goes pretty deep into the typical $hit and stupidity that tends to surround making a big summer action superhero movie.

Your usual suspects are there, with dumbass producers, and beyond silly ideas for what was meant to be Superman's return to the silver screen. (And thank God we're apparently getting something much better.)

Again, here is the link...WATCH IT.
