Bryan Singer has reportedly signed on to do another "Superman" movie, due out in 2009 or thereabouts. I'm guessing he's jumping at the chance to cram in all those Christ metaphors he couldn't quite find room for in the first one.

"Critically, "Superman Returns" was disparaged for lacking in action. Singer has said he would address this concern in the follow-up."

No word on whether the great gaping holes in continuity or, you know, logic would be addressed. Maybe those will be in the third movie.

That said, I know I'll still go see it. After all, the entire 154 minutes of "what the heck is he doing" was worth sitting through just for the plane-saving scene. Give me another of those, back off on the oh-so-subtle metaphors, and for Superman's sake let him punch something.
