Superman Sequel Seeks New Villain... FINALLY!

Posted 01.06.09 by reelz

Tired of seeing Lex Luthor as the baddie in all but one of the previous 5 Superman movies? Yeah, so are we. And it seems, according to The Latino Review, so is Warner Bros. Reports say that they're on the lookout for a new nemesis in the sequel.

Since 1978, when Christopher Reeve first slipped on the blue tights, baldy bad-guy Lex Luthor has been his antagonist in all the major motion pictures. Now we agree that Lex is probably Supe's ultimate opponent, but come on Warner Bros, this is The Man of Steel we're talking about. He's had a history of fighting for truth, justice and the American way since the 1940s. He's trounced thousands of villains in his time. Even Batman in his 6 movies has only had to fight the Joker twice.

It is indeed time. But who will it be? Braniac? Doomsday? Metallo? And what actor will play the part of adversary to this iconic character? Check out Latino Review for their picks. What about yours?

It is sad that the Smallville TV show kicks you know what over Superman Returns. Yes, Lex was a main cast member of Smallville for the first seven seasons, but Clark Kent has taken on Mr. Mxyptlk, Brainiiac, Bizzaro, General Zod and even Doomsday as well as an endless parade of Meteor Freaks. All without the suit. Not only that, but he has met up with other superheroes such as the Green Arrow, Aquaman, Impulse, Martian Manhunter, Cyborg, his cousin Kara a.k.a. Supergirl and even the Legion of Superheroes (who almost revealed the name of the superhero he is to become). And the list of guest stars from the Christopher Reeve Superman films and other superhero shows is impressive: Christopher Reeve (the Man of Steel himself), Margot Kidder (Lois Lane), Annette O'Toole (she played Lana Lang in Superman III and Martha Kent in Smallville), Marc McClure (Jimmy Olsen), Helen Slater (Supergirl), Dean Cain (Clark Kent / Superman from Lois and Clark) and even Linda Carter (Wonder Woman). Some ideas I have for future guest stars are Lou Ferrigno (The Incredible Hulk), Adam West (Batman), Burt Ward (Robin), Gene Hackman (Lex Luthor from the Christopher Reeve series of films), Lee Majors (6 Million Dollar Man), Lindsay Wagner (Bionic Woman), Jack Nicholson (Joker from the first Batman movie) and Michael Keaton (Batman from the 1989 Batman movie and Batman Returns).

tsk... tsk... tsk...

Why do people forget that there have been 7 (non-animated) Batman movies? In the often-ignored 1966 high-camp version (yes, the one with Adam West), Batman has to battle the Joker, along with the other usual suspects, which makes it 3 movies where the Joker is the bad guy.
