Superman Returns

Updated June 30th: To celebrate the release of Superman Returns, Google and Warner Bros. are teaming up to give users the inside scoop on the summer blockbuster. Go to Google Video for trailers and exclusive behind the scenes clips. You can also track the hero as he travels the globe - the Google map contains shield icons that mark the various Superman sightings throughout the world.

I'm back from the showing and had a blast with everyone there. For those of you wondering, Brandon did not make an appearance, but his younger movie self did: Stephan Bender. He was kind enough to stop by unannounced to sign autographs and take pictures with people from the line as well as regular bystanders. Needless to say (because many reviewers have already said it), Superman's back. An incredibly touching and emotional film that's chock full of Superman goodness never seen before, Superman Returns is a film that redefines superhero filmmaking.

Enjoy the film!

Also, the film's score is in stores now and can be purchased at www.rhino.com. The score album also includes liner notes penned by John Ottman, who writes about his admiration for the 1978 original and its Williams score.
