Getting Bryan Singer to direct Superman predisposed me to see it, but the decision to cast Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor was the real dealmaker. I'm really looking forward to that.

Yeah, it's interesting, isn't it? For example, no idea why, but I'm just fascinated by Alec Baldwin as the bullying sales manager in Glengarry Glen Ross:
"We're adding a little something to this month's sales contest. As you all know, first prize is a Cadillac Eldorado. Anybody want to see second prize? [Holds up prize] Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is you're fired."
Must appeal to everyone's inner sadist, or something ...
