I thought the actress did ok but the script sucked

@cameron83:

How about they make a good movie first? Then we see it,Then the sequel will happen. But we the fans will not support a terrible franchise because it has the Superman name on it.

And the reason DC doesn't have a lot of movies out is because DC is terrible at marketing, and the people that direct these projects don't understand the characters. (see Wonder Woman pilot, Green Lantern, and Johna Hex)

Agreed.

I'm not expecting much with this movie, cautiously pessimistic about the whole JL franchise, if this movie doesn't get incredible reviews and make tons of cash for WB I think they might scrap the JL movie, because if you can't get people excited for Superman then your not going to be able to for the Flash

I'm not going to say any crap about this movie yet, sure DC is horrible at making live-action movies but the Man of Steel does looks promising to me. I'm actually excited for it.

She's definitely a talented actress. I'm sure she'll deliver a good performance.

@Mr_Athrilla: But already fans are assuming it's crap because he doesn't have panties and a yellow belt on him.

And while dc IS bad at movies.......well,yea dc is bad at movies,you got me there

Why she's Lois Lane I'll never know.

@Dernman: I wasn't born when Kilmer became Batman. That was before my time lol.

Stop making me feel old goddamnit!

I'm not saying she's a bad actor but Amy Adams is no Lois Lane:P My favoritt Lois has always been Teri Hatcher, she has the looks and attitude as Lois, in fact she is Lois to me :)

Oh no wait I was. But I was 2. So you're still kind of old :P

@Onemoreposter: This image looks kind of red to me. Either that or aubern. Or maybe I've misinterpreted it as red. In any case, the black hair isn't that big a deal IMO.

And as Dernman said, there was some outrage to Kilmer being Batman but I don't know anything about that. And according to Gambit, Adams has performed well in the films she's been in. That's a good enough reassurance for me to overlook something as trivial as hair colour.

@Dernman: I wasn't born when Kilmer became Batman. That was before my time lol.

@Gambit1024: Fair points. It's just not as big a deal to me that's all.

It's not a dark Superman film. I still don't know why people think this. It's a more mature serious Superman which is a good thing. But it's no means dark at all. He's not gonna start screaming at people and threaten them like Batman does. It's just gonna be more serious. That's all.

@cameron83 said:

I think this movie will get a sequel...it better,fans....if you want to complain about DC's lack of movies,first you must see this movie.If you want a sequel,you have to hold up your end of the deal!

Supposedly, if the movie is crap, I'm not going to go see it just to get a sequel. This is Superman we're talking about. He'll get new movies no matter what. Especially if he gets a "He's The One" movies like Donner did or Snyder (so far) seems to be making.

im hyped and hoping this somehow creates a perfect setting justice league in the future!

I'm pumped for this movie. Amy Adams as Lois.....not so much.

@cameron83:

The film has to be good, first.

@LaserLambert: Judi Dench is a great actress, an amazing one, doubt she'd pull off a good Lois though, and she'd have white hair!....lol

@Gambler:

Yep, Superman Returns had some good performances lost in a mess of a movie, really was underwhelming. This one is almost incomprehensible based on what has been shown, I'm not asking for a spoiler but at least give us a solid glimpse of what is to be expected.

Amy Adams as Lois Lane? Meh, not a fan.

This is the very least of my fears for the movie

I haven't been keeping track of any of the reports or tracking the movie's plot etc. I saw the preview during the DKR and originally thought it was an Aquaman movie. Still, I'm willing to bet anything, it will be better then the last Superman movie attempt. Which isnt saying much I guess.

for crying out loud, whether it's a screenshot from a video game, or something from a movie, the comments section populates itself solely with the superficial morons and idiots, Amy Adams is a great actress, wait for the fucking movie.

I'm definitely looking forward tot his but Amy's gonna have to convince me she plays a good Lois. Right now she is the only misgiving I have about the film. She better surprise the hell outta me is all I'm saying.

I know it's irrational but I too am opposed to the haircolor even though I love Amy Adams.

Here's my objection: I happen to really enjoy that DC has so many raven-haired women. Black hair is bold, it's severe, it's dramatic, you don't see it nearly enough. So many girls go for this sort of mousey, neutral, faded out look which is exactly what Amy Adams has. You call that Ginger? Ginger sounds to sassy for what that is. It's an indecisive brown/blonde shade of hair that happens to be sorta red too. It's dull.

I just don't think it's right.

I still don't know how to feel about a dark Superman. It may end up working, but it may end up bombing

@gjary said:

@Icon: Yeah, but changing something that has been set into fans minds is just stupid when it doesn't need to be changed. If they gave Superman blond hair you may be more inclined to agree, (possibly, I don't know you so maybe you wouldn't mind that either! I mean no disrespect, just stating my point...lol) but in my mind without good reason it's just the same, you are taking something from an existing world and altering it due to some silly reason (like the actress doesn't suit that colour but does suit the part etc).

I get that, but I was simply pointing out that this isn't the first time Lois has had red or red-ish hair (both in live action and in the comics), so it's not that big of a change for fans (and certainly not like randomly making Superman blonde).

@Gambit1024: lol. All good man.

@Onemoreposter: Man, I'm sorry. I was about to be all like "No, she's American." Forgive my stupidity, lol.

@Gambit1024 said:

@Onemoreposter: Smoking hot.... Also, Lana Lang was Scottish?

The surname Lang can be found in both Germanic and Chinese cultures. The Germanic version of the name is most prevalent among the English, the Scottish, and the Germans though I think the Germans usually spell the name Lange. Going off that and her red hair, I always assumed that Lana was ethnically Scottish.

@Onemoreposter: Smoking hot.... Also, Lana Lang was Scottish?

@Lvenger said:

@Gambit1024: @Dernman: @Onemoreposter: @gjary: @hyperman: You're all forgetting one thing. Remember when Lois looked like this?

At one point it was brown and then it was red. So Amy Adams is a ginger. Big whoop. It's whether she can perform the part of Lois Lane well that is the key crucial thing. It's not as if she's always had black hair so this is hardly a big change. As long as Amy acts the part, I'll be happy. You can't have everything you know.

And Bruce Wayne had brown instead of black hair yet there's not all this outrage about how he didn't go the extra mile with his character. Though he was a terrible Batman IMO.

Uhhh yeah I remember. Those were awesome times. Her hair was never red in the comics though. Also, your acting like changing between dark brown and black is the same thing as changing from black to red. It's not...at all. PLUS there's a long standing precedence of Lois being portrayed with brown hair outside of comics. Teri Hatcher, Erica Durance, and Kate Bosworth all had brown hair. You know who else had brown hair? Probably the most iconic Lois of all time.

Also, which Batman are you talking about, because like Lane, Batman in film usually has brown hair. You remember Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, and Christian Bale? They all had brown hair while playing Wayne.

Yeah dude. Changing between Brown and Black isn't a biggy. Suddenly going blonde or redheaded from black/dark brown or vice versa is.

@Gambit1024 said:

@Omega-Man : Smallville had much bigger problems than that, lmao. But yeah, that was a dumb casting choice.

Yeah, Smallville was all over the place. Gotta admit though, Kruek was smoking hot, even if she was black haired and Chinese instead of redheaded and Scottish.

@queenfrost_ said:

Every time I see photos of Amy on set of MOS I get that twitch of rage.

I think I have to agree with you.

Amy was on Smallville

@Gambit1024: Oh I know that, I hated the show and I'm a MASSIVE Superman fan. But giving what people are saying I thought I'd say that lol.

@Omega-Man : Smallville had much bigger problems than that, lmao. But yeah, that was a dumb casting choice.

And boys and girls this is why Smallville sucked, well lana anyway they changed her race completely in that series but hey can't compare TV to a Movie.

   So Amy Adams is a ginger. Big whoop

 It's whether she can perform the part of Lois Lane well that is the key crucial thing. 

Being able to look the part is a crucial to being able to perform the role. If you don't look like the character then you're failing at being the character. 

 It's not as if she's always had black hair so this is hardly a big change. As long as Amy acts the part, I'll be happy. You can't have everything you know. 

And Bruce Wayne had brown instead of black hair yet there's not all this outrage about how he didn't go the extra mile with his character. Though he was a terrible Batman IMO.

@Lvenger: I'm not asking for everything. I'm just saying that it's odd to me that she didn't do it. Besides, Lois's hair is dark, and has always been dark. Adam's hair is bright. It's not about the color, it's the shade (which is why I don't care about Bale).

She'll make a good LL. Sexy, but in a girl next door kinda way.

Wow, I expected more in this article. Either way, I'm super excited about the film and have the utmost faith in Ms. Adams.

She reminds me of Wonder Woman. Not Lois Lane...

@Gambit1024 said:

So.. she kept the red hair?

Does it matter she has red hair? I'm more interested in the performance Amy gives personally than the hair colour she has in the film.

OF COURSE IT MATTERS! GRWAAAA!!!!!!FANBOYRAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AMY WHY YOU HAVE RED HAIR?!?!?!?!?

@Gambit1024 said:

@geoff2005: Have you seen The Fighter? Her performance in that was very well done. That's the only reason I'm not really concerned about her acting chops.

she was in that movie? is her role to play a stern and stubborn girl

She a good actress but i havent seen her play any lois lane type of character. I dont know if she can but i guess well see soon

I love Amy Adams and I'm on the edge of my seat in anticipation of this film!

@geoff2005: Have you seen The Fighter? Her performance in that was very well done. That's the only reason I'm not really concerned about her acting chops.

@Lvenger: Well, I understand that actors have to make some sacrifices for the characters that play in order to inject more realism to it. One of these sacrifices, for instance, is dyeing your hair. Chris Reeve is an excellent actor and he played Supeman brilliantly, but he didn't have natural dark hair. It's hard to imagine a fair-haired Superman in such an important movie.

well with the hair color i can understand its like changing superman cape to black or blue. Lois was defined with black hair while lana lang has red.

Since many are expecting WB to get their shit together.... you know the rest

@Gotham's Dark Knight said:

People whine about Lois's Red hair, but not Bruce's Brown hair in the Nolan's Movies? SEXIST!

brown and black are closet enough while red vs black is a big difference hahah

@Mrfuzzynutz: I agree I dont know if she can act stern as most of her movies her character seems sweet then again knowing WB they prob changed the universe and made Lois Red head and a sweet girl

I LOVE Amy Adams, especially as the way she fills out a pair of pilot pants in "A Night at the Museum..." However, she is not a good choice to portray Lois.
