I'm also glad to read that the film will not attempt to cling itself to the previous versions of the Superman franchise nor will it attach itself to a known series within the comic universe of Superman. David S. Goyer has stated that it will be somehwta of an origins story. While I worried that Chris Nolan's hand in all of this would mena that Superman would essentially be another version of Batman Begins, which from earlier word that's how it sounded, but a young Superman looking for his place in a new world seems like a much better concept then the usual. I'd like to see a younger Superman making mistakes, one with a temper, learning about his powers and vulnerabilities without being forced to meet yet another version of the cocky superhero whose completely full of himself and standing as some moral beacon. The idea that he may be young and unsure of himself means he's got room to grow. I'm just hoping that whatever villain they put in the film will prove to be one that can offer him a challange and not just some balled headed super genius who can trick the man of steel into putting on a krytonite necklace. Here's hoping.
