so can we talk about the film without spoiler tags now? I'll assume so. If you haven't seen the movie yet, don't read this post.
Spoiler:
So yea, the kid. It's Superman's. I had absolutely no idea that was going to be the case; it floored me. Did anyone else here even suspect it at all? And was the kid just pretending to be sickly to cover up his abilities? If not, why is he sickly? I really hope the kid (Jason, right?) is a central part of the next movie, because I was left wanting to know more about him.
Was anyone else really affected by the scene where Lex's henchmen are beating up the weakened Supes, followed by Lex stabbing him? It really got to me... gave me a sinking feeling like I was a kid watching Santa get run over by a truck.
Lastly, the movie did a great job of making me wonder whether they were going to have Superman die. I would have bought it. Actually, I think it would have been great if they made that happen... just to be ballsy.
