by Kevin Smith
Smith has been pretty vocal about the horrors of development. For all the hype, I’m not too keen on this script. It has some interesting elements: the death and rebirth of Superman, the presence of both Lex Luthor and Braniac. I liked the way the story just starts without explaining who Superman is — like a comic, or an episode of the animated show. But there is some humor that doesn’t work, and three separate robot characters. That’s at least one too many robots for me.
