Next month Superman returns with a new movie, Superman Returns, starring Brandon Routh. I don't know who that is either!
The folks at Rhino are so excited they've gotten a bunch of indie bands to record Superman-y songs for a new comp.

Okay Warner Brothers ... I will see your Superman movie only if Kate Bosworth's eyes are two different colors. I find it charmingly distracting.
