My wife and I watched the Superman Returns DVD last night (I'm specifying so no one confuses it with the game). The movie was well done, but for some reason I still don't love it. Last night I discovered that reason: I hate Lois Lane. In the old movies she was clueless to Clark, but still likable. Not so in this one. I understand that she felt rejected and wrote a nasty article about Supes. But what I don't like is that she's been lying to her beau for 5 years! She knew the baby was Supes'. What does that say about her character? She's a liar. Next, and this is something my wife pointed out, for her to convince said beau that the baby is his, she would have had to jump in bed with him immediately. Superman departed without saying goodbye, so she didn't even know he was gone (I mean, he's Superman and could be out saving the planet or something). It had to be within weeks of his departure before she was knocking boots with someone new. If Superman were her true love, she would have worried and waited or even search for him with all the resources available. That makes her a lying slut. She didn't deserve either guy. How do you have sympathy for her then?
And you can't hate Richard (the gullible guy who believes her when she says the baby is his). He loves his woman and his "son". He's a boyscout just like Clark and Supes. In fact, he's a standup guy, isn't a weenie, is actually bold, and has a plane (so he can fly . . .) He's a Superman without powers! Lois found her a Superman substitute! Lying slut who is using her man. She makes a sorry attempt at hiding her feelings towards the caped crusader too and Richard gets it thrown in his face. He has to endure the humiliation of finding that her password isn't his name or their son's, but Superman. And after realizing that Superman may indeed be competition for Lois' heart, he STILL goes back to save him! I would have been tempted to toss Lois out of the plane and let her and Supes go feed the fishies. Yet, she has refused to marry him (after accepting and engagement ring).
Does anyone else have a problem with the new Ms. Lois Lane?
