"I wish that DC would just flat out be like, 'We're just going to steal Marvel's plan since it seems to be working for them,' and then just do the same thing," the filmmaker and geek guru tells QMI Agency.
"They've got characters and they can do a Justice League movie as well." From what he has seen, the Clerks filmmaker - who wrote Superman Lives back in the 1990s which never got made - thinks director Zack Snyder and star Henry Cavill are on the right track with Man of Steel.
"I liked Bryan Singer's Superman Returns, I thought it honoured the Dick Donner versions, but what I've seen from Man of Steel has pulled me right in," says Smith.
"There is one moment where Superman is speeding Lois Lane away from danger and we get a glimpse of her face and to me it looks like she's saying, 'If this dude slows down we are dead.' If you can show me something that beautiful that brings me as close to the comic book experience as humanly possible, you've got my money."

You don't know who I am? Well sit back because my story is a beautiful tale of power and integrity, a captivating experience and ingenious story.
When I was sent to prison for a crime I didn't commit, I signed up for the weapon X program where I got some acid stuff in my eye which caused me to go blind except for whenever I shout the word, "SHAZAM." I was part of Project: Rebirth and given an indestructible shield, however I had gotten bitten by a radioactive spider which caused my father Odin to banish me from my home, only for both my parents to get shot in an alley. And to top it all off, I was exposed to gamma radiation when my mother died and I was abducted from Earth by a strange blue-skinned alien, which gave me the ability to teleport, shapeshift, read minds, and squirt milk from my nose.
