Superman Returns

[Afrobean]

Yea, since when does someone who is basically indestructible need a space suit?

Seriously, Superman is the most over powered super hero ever. Sure it makes for awesomeness in some ways, but then other times you're just sitting there waiting for that fucking Doomsday monster to come kill him. You know what I mean?

In conclusion, Superman must die for being too awesome.

Everyone should read Brian Clevinger's essay on Superman some time.

I always assumed he needed to breathe air...

esupin... as per some Superman episode (Lois & Clark or the cartoon, I don't recall)... he could hold his breath for about 30 minutes. So, he needs air, but not that often.

I did. It's here (http://www.nuklearpower.com/daily.php?date=050203) if anyone else wants to read it. It's amusing, but doesn't strike me as all that likely. The Council dudes refused to believe that the planet was going to explode when Jor-El told them so...I think if they really were going to try and take over the world (PINKY!)--er, universe, they would pay more attention to their own planet while they were STILL ON IT.

Personally, I think everyone should read Larry Niven's "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex" essay. (http://www.rawbw.com/~svw/superman.html) It's a hilarious treatise on why Superman can't have kids with Lois Lane.

Pinky, are you pondering what im pondering?

I think so Brain, but if Jimmy cracked corn and no one cares, why do they keep singing it?
