Because THAT'S a good idea.

So, we're all pretty much agreed that Superman Returns didn't quite hit the mark.

But does it really need to be re-booted as a dark version of Superman? Really?

That's not what Superman is about. It should be about wonder and heroics. The best Superman story in the last ten years is Grant Morrison's All Star Superman and that doesn't have to rely on the tired grim and gritty approach to Superheroes. All it does rely on are the core Superman concepts and good writing.

So none of this gritty nonsense please. That's what we have Frank Miller for.
