The Man of Steel

Warning: Nerd!Alert

Holmes, my metabuddy, told me she watched the Christopher Reeves video in Driver's Ed today.  
Well, that got me thinking about Superman and those awesome movies.

I love the original supermans.

The cheesy special effects, the hair and clothes, Christopher Reeves...... it's all great. The new movie just doesn't cut it for me.

I mean, yeah, it's all great and all and it has that Corny Collins guy from Hairspray in it, but it's just not as cool.

And he's sort of a creepy Clark Kent.


But I love watching the Superman movies. I'm not sure which one is my favorite. I think it might be the third one.  Where the evil superman is drunk and looking all dingy in the bar and then goes and beats up Clark Kent at the dump.
.....I'm really not sure why I like this one.

And, despite what Holmes may say, I like Lana Lang better than Lois. (Do you like pink?)  And what about the "Love den"?  *shudder*

But anyway, this random, long post is dedicated to Reeves. The original man of steel.

Because of him, kids grew up flying around with towels pinned to their shoulders and arms outstretched.


Thanks, Reeves. We miss you.

    If it helps, I think it's hilarious when he is all drunk and stuff. But I still don't like Lana.

    Oh, it is hilarious. I love the way he staggers outside and all the kids scream and run away. Haha!
    It's the nerdy sweater Clark wears when he's around her, isn't it?
    ADMIT IT!!

    It's not the sweater. I'm fine if he wears one. If other people do though....well we'll talk about that later.
    It's actually her voice. And her perfect little small town life. It drives me insane. Plus she's a wimp in the true sense. At least Lois fakes it until she actually is in real danger. Than she's wimpier than the rest. I find her dual personality very intriguing.

    If who wears sweaters, hm?
    You know, I can't remember the sound of her voice...
    Hahaha!
    You've got to love multiple personalities.
