I agree with you about Superman Returns.

But this has to be one of the most painful romantic scenes in any movie.
Can you read my mind?

Come on, that was a classic scene. The move was from the 70's, so it might feel a bit cheesy, but I think it is pretty darn memorable. In context, it is a time in the movie where no one knew who or what superman was. It makes more sense why she was thinking dumb questions like "Can you read my mind"

I see your point and it is a classic scene -- the visuals anyway.  But I hated that scene back then.  Maybe not when I saw it in the theater but certainly when it replayed on HBO when I was a kid.  Just utterly painful dialog from Margo.

I know what you mean, it is really odd dialog for Margo's Lois. I'm kinda more of a fan of how she plays off of superman in the second movie better anyway. I really liked the whole Niagara Falls bit when she figured out superman's Identity. Spoiler:Superman is Clark Kent. Shhhh!

Agreed. I liked Superman Returns, but I didnt like the somber tone of the movie. People complain about the action scenes, but for me it was the overall tone that detracted from the movie. That and the costume. I hated the boots, and the cape. Batman has a leathery cape, Supermans cape should be designed to be like a flag, vibrant, and flowy. I also didnt like how they took away the truth, justice, and the american way thing, trying to appeal to a broader audience, people forget, Superman is an American hero, designed by Americans. Why try to hide that? Its stupid. Im sketch about Zakk Snyders Superman... Im not really looking forward to it.

--- End quote ---

I have to disagree with you there, X2, then Xmen, then First class. I dont like how they ripped off other mutants, and made the originals RETARDED. Beast was the biggest disappointment, the dragonfly chick was stupid, Havoks hoola hoop ass was the most bizarre thing ever. Havok is Cyclop's brother, why not put him in it? The best part in the movie IMO was when Magneto was in the bar. Magneto was the best part in the whole movie, but that was expected, because this was supposed to be an origin tale of Magneto, a la Wolverine, but they scrapped it and did First Class... ::)
