I for one am sick & tired of all the Pretty-boys Hollywood keeps giving us
for the big, tall, powerful, manly-man that Clark Kent from a farm in
Kansas (by way of a planet called KRYPTON) is!
Ever since the big manly 6'4” Chris Reeves nailed the part Hollywood has
only sent us skinny little pretty-boy underwear models to play the bigger-
than-life iconic Superman. I hate to say it but Ben Affleck is the only actor
they picked to play Superman that has looked half-way manly since Chris
and he wasn't really playing Superman. He was playing a man who played
Superman on TV in the 50's, GEORGE REEVES.
I want to see a tall manly-looking guy as Superman! I want my manly
Superman back, darn it! LOL
So I started looking for someone who was around 6'2-6'3” in TV and
the movies who had a beefy-build, a square jaw, and a somewhat less than
totally fashion-model girlie-boy look! But I didn't want an ancient
geezer like JON HAMM, who actually said he was too old for the part!
That man was none other than TAHMOH PENIKETT who has starred
in two TV shows so far, BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, as the rugged
heroic, HELO, who had enough of a spirit of “being his own man” that
he defied everybody and actually still loved his woman and mother of his
baby even after he found out she was a dreaded CYLON!
His character, HELO, was only supposed to be in the first BDG movie
but people said they liked him so much as HELO that they wrote him
into the series!
He then starred in Joss Whedon's DOLL HOUSE as a tough FBI agent
trying to track down ELIZA DUSHKU'S special agent/assassin.
Tahmoh has shown me every aspect of the real Superman/Clark Kent,
toughness, fairness, loyalty and willingness to defy everyone to see
justice done and freedom upheld! He's 6'2½” tall, 35 and actually looks
like a manly-man! LOL
I think he is perfect for SUPERMAN!
Now in my superman-1 movie I wanted a villain who was not just the
same ol' same ol'! You know, like LEX LUTHOR, DOOMSDAY,
BRAINIAC & DARKSEID! And I wanted a guy who could literally
kill Clark Kent DEAD! I want a final battle of epic proportions,
like THE HULK & ABOMINATION battle royale in THE
INCREDIBLE HULK!
I want to see a Superman battle that no one will be able to forget that
lasts a good 15-20 minutes at the end of the movie! Even more brutal,
savage and monumental than the HULK/ABOMINATION throw-down!
No more human-weakling LEX LUTHOR please!!!!!
So I chose the reddish-skinned nasty alien, DESPERO! He can attack
both physcially brutal and telepathically savage! He can attack
SUPERMAN'S mind as well his body! And he can actually KILL Clark!
My movie idea has DESPERO screaming across the sky to earth with
another spaceship following as it roars behind. Coming out of the
DAILY PLANET building Clark, Lois & Jimmy all see them in the sky
above METROPOLIS. Clark says he forgot his cellphone and runs back
in as Jimmy wisecracks about how Clark seems to always run for cover
when things get really scary! Lois tells Jimmy to follow her with his
camera, leaving Clark to fend for himself.
Clark is already high above METROPOLIS watching where the 2
flying craft rush to the ground! Clark flies as SUPERMAN over to
the landing site. He's leaning over checking out the embedded front
craft when a huge whitish-blue humanoid alien hand reaches out from
behind grabbing Clark and tossing him violently into the trees of
this woodland outside of METROPOLIS.
CLARK is flung far away into the woods as he loudly tears a path of
destruction through the brush and trees! He gathers himself, brushes
himself off and flies back, angrily, to the landing site.
The big alien is none other than alien bounty hunter, LOBO. Clark
angrily knocks him into the next county, literally! LOL
Then DESPERO comes from his craft and attacks SUPERMAN and the
rest of the movie and all the ferocious fun begins!
DESPERO is the villain of the piece and LOBO only has a short cameo,
setting him up for his own movie!
DESPERO eventually uses BIZARRO SUPERMAN, under his telepathic
control, to distract CLARK, LEX LUTHOR is just the corrupt megalomaniac
billionaire in the background trying to rid earth of all the aliens,
especially CLARK!
LOIS' dad, GENERAL SAM LANE, disagrees with LEX on how to
deal with the alien threat of DESPERO while LEX builds his powersuit
so he can get rid of DESPERO along with CLARK, himself.
Epic battles and alien destruction is what I want for a SUPERMAN
movie! A villain who can actually kill Clark. And a manly-man as...
THE MAN OF STEEL:
MY Superman fancast entitled,
SUPERMAN: THE MAN OF STEEL:
Finally a manly guy for CLARK/SUPERMAN!
SUPERMAN (CLARK KENT): TAYMOH PENIKETT
Deanna is a well-trained and excellent actress who shined in the not-so-
great KNIGHT RIDER! And “Great Cesar's Ghost she's BOMBASTICALLY
BEAUTIFUL! She looks a lot like Olivia Wilde except she has bigger
breastessezz! (That's very important to me!) LOL
LOIS LANE: DEANNA RUSSO
DEANNA definitely has the body and she has the brains too!
Extremely well-seasoned actor for a young man. From the HARRY POTTER
movies. He's all grown up now (he's 22) and would be fantastic for
Jimmy!
JIMMY OLSON: RUPERT GRINT
I can just see this big powerful-voiced man chomping on cigars and bossing
the newsroom around! He's too old to play LEX now but he's perfect for
Perry!
PERRY WHITE: CLANCY BROWN
This is my foremost pick for LEX and I'm sticking with him!
LEX LUTHOR: PAUL BETTANY
Michael Ironside was LOIS' dad on Smallville and is just perfect for the
big screen version too!
GENERAL SAMUEL LANE: MICHAEL IRONSIDE
These two were in THE VALLEY OF ELAH together and just seem right
to play Ma & Pa Kent.
JONATHAN & MARTHA KENT: TOMMY LEE JONES & SUSAN SARANDON
Jeremy is perfect for this role!
JOR-EL: JEREMY IRONS
And this huge man is perfect for the big alien bounty hunter!
LOBO: KEVIN DURAND
THE VILLAINS:
HAWK@ picked this man to voice DESPERO, so how can I go wrong!
DESPERO: CGI + KEITH DAVID (VOICE)
BIZARRO SUPERMAN: TAHMOH PENIKETT
A little added bonus at the end here...
