One of my favorite movies of all time is the original Superman movie from 1978. If you can find a better soundtrack, then I wanna hear it! It's a goofy flick, sure, but it understands that it's supposed to be a little over-the-top, a little satirical. The sequels, of course, were crap. But now, Superman Returns. The new movie is due out on June 30, but if you can't wait that long, check out the trailer. Wow. If the movie lives up to the trailer, it'll be a worthy sequel.

Added bonus: my friend Richard Saunders is an extra in the flick (they filmed a lot of it in Sydney, Australia). I'll have to keep my eyes open for him.'
