Yes! and because he is my Superman as well, I will NOT be watching the new upstart imposter. I think that the new one is a disservice to the courage and memory to Chris Reeves.

I hear ya Lilith.
But damn... Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor. Nothing against Gene Hackman... I just love Mr. Spacey.

LOVE the pics! Christopher Reeves was wonderful as Superman and I have very fond memories of seeing the movies. I will see the new one however, because I'm curious about how the new guy will be and look. Also, I think the effects in the new one look incredible.

Mr Alwyn and Mr Reeve may argue a little bit.
The actor is not the character, and I revel in any competent portrayal.

I hope that it doesn't end up like the myriad of Batmans. I grew up on Adam West re-runs, but was accepting of Michael Keaton as the Movie Batman....then it went on to worse and worse portrayals with the epitome of bad as George Cloony in "Batman & Robin"
eh, I still wont be going, nor renting the new stuff.

I like that it's not a 'remake' or a 'revision' or a 're-anything'. It's a new Superman movie and while I really dislike replacing actors, it's simply not possible to use the same actors we remember. And as OF eluded to... Christopher Reeves was not the first Man of Steel. But he will always, to me, be Superman.

And George Reeve won't?
While my first thought of Christopher is "Superman", in almost the same mental breath I think of "Richard Collier", his part in "Somewhere in Time".

The only other movie I recall seeing C. Reeves in was "Noises Off"... and that was awhile after he was cemented into my brain as Superman.
I never had the opportunity to see G. Reeves as the Man of Steel, so there's no connection for me.

Gearge was the man, but the two girls who played Lois Lane were a young boy's
wet dream, sexy, intelligent, self-sufficient, yet unable to pick the difference a pair
of glasses and blue longjohns make.
