Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the film that Kevin Smith wrote a screenplay for years ago right? Anyway, I'm really looking foward to this one.

My worry is that Jon Peters is producing. If anyone has seen An Interview With Kevin Smith, he talks about his experience writing a script for Superman, specifically, his dealings with Jon Peters. If those stories have any ounce of truth in them, then Peters is an absolute idiot. The fact that they had McG set to direct only increased my worries. He only left the project, because he didn't want to film in Australia.
Having Singer attached is a huge plus. He's a comic book fan, and I find, movies like these work best when the people behind it are fans of the material, and understand the specifics of the project. Plus, I really like what Singer did with the X-Men movies, especially X2. I'm hoping that he counteracts any influence Peters has.
