Drew Taylor,

I take umbrage with your characterization of "All-Star Superman" The Animated Movie as being "half-ass".

Btw Ratner wanted Matt Bomer as Superman, Ralph Fiennes as Jor-El, Christopher Walken as Perry White and Anthony Hopkins as Lex Luthor.

A bunch of my posts doubled up for some reason. Weird.

I would have loved to see Burton's take. No doubt it would be a cult favorite today. Anyone who's read Smith's screenplay there was far more wrong with it than Peter's input. The dialogue is annoying and often way too "cutesy". Frankly after the investment into the characters and re-establishment of the mythos in Returns I desperately wanted to see what Singer and company would have done next. It was a bit too long and could have used one more action sequence (not to mention keeping the excellent Krypton sequence) but I liked the old fashioned and respectful take on the character Superman Returns provided. It sounds like as exciting as Man of Steel is, it could use a bit of the heart and humor it's immediate predecessor had. I'll find out at tomorrow's sneak peak I guess.

I would love to see Burton's Batman!

That McG/Abrams is basically what we have now with Man of Steel. I know McG was more interested in romance / comedy aspects and MoS is more 'serious' but visuals, some scene etc. are very, very similar.

To be honest I like Josh Hartnett a lot and it's a pity what happened to him.

Superman Lives, this chap had his kickstarter to fund a documentary about it's development, he also wanted to shoot pre viz for some of the action sequences.

Can't link to it here though.

I think the Aronofsky version would have been quite intriguing and most likely a very different take on the Superman genre both in storyline and visually.
