Not Comics: Superman on Film
Three different people have sent me this link to some sort of lecture report on Bryan Singer at Princeton. I love reading this stuff as much as the next guy, but I'm afraid I don't have any opinion about superhero movies worth repeating; I don't think films relate to comics except in the obvious sense of their being the kind of licensing coup for which these businesses struggle in the wider, corporate sense -- and you pretty much lose that link once you get into specifics of any film.

One thing that did hit me on reading this -- in terms of comics -- is that I note DC will actually have some Superman and line-wide stuff going on when the movie hits, enough material of the type that could actually result in a bit of PR synergy, which almost never happens.
