Man Of Steel

^exactly.
i don't think of her as the ultimate beauty queen but as "man i'd love to F the shit out of this woman!!!" type babe. her class and sophistication overrides all of that and her talent as an actress can not be denied. (although i question her role in HANNAH and other recent ventures).
one of her best films is based on a true story and is worth watching when you have time: VERONICA GUERIN. which is an A+ in my book.
yeah there's something about a woman who is not 'perfect' looking. first they don't come off as being dumb. second who knows, you might get a shot at it? have you seen the hags that are runway models nowadays (except of course victoria's secrect.....but i betcha between them they couldn't pass a fifth grade math or science quiz)?i know cate is australian but some of the prettiest but not perfect woman are coming out of eastern europe now. the russina, the czechs.
yummy. (sorry you commie hating right wingers, but it's true). -

It was meh for Me and the fact they based his family Kansas was a huge "no-no" for Me...Superman is and will always be an Ohioan to Me...The producers really dropped the ball I think and turned superman into some fucked up EMO dude.

Kansas wasn't generally accepted until the late 80s.

Really? I didn't know that. I thought Smallville was always considered to be in Kansas. I will defer to your knowledge, obviously.
If it wasn't known to be in Kansas from the 30s to the 80s where was it? Or was it just a generic Midwest US small town?
If so, it could have been Ohio.
Here is Wikipedia discussion of the location of Smallville. And yes, Kansas wasn't a definitive Smallville location until 50 years on into the comic series.
-
Also Smallville isn't that far from Metropolis. So what word Metropolis be? Kansas city? I don't think so.

the ultimate question...ginger or mary ann?
one was like the good girl next door who would be cautious and afraid (tosome people is appealing...hmmm)
OR you could go with the actress who slept her way up to a starring role (so she knwos what she's doing).
HMMMM let me think.
the scared virgin obviously.

Mary Ann in a Bukakke scene with the Gilligan, the Skipper and the Professor. Hell, add in Thurston Howl.

Wichita?
How close to the Gale farm would the Kent Farm have been?
And since the creators were from Cleveland, and if Cleveland was the basis for Metropolis, then where would Smallville be?
Maybe Norton?
Or, how about this candidate: small rural town, similar name: Smithville?
-
Was Norton around in the 19 thirties or was it only called Loyal Oak?
I do think that Seagal & Schuster may have patterned some of the skyline buildings on the Cleveland skyline but it's hard to tell since many call buildings of that era look similar.
Of course as the legend has changed and evolved over the years it's hard to be an absolute purist.

Around since 1818

The creators to My knowledge based superman in a small rural farm town in Ohio ...atleast thats what I saw on a documentary about the creation of superman that detailed pretty much how Shuster and Siegel came up with him....I mean Metropolis is basically Cleveland. The Daily Planet was inspired by the Plain Dealer....Afterall..Shuster and Siegal were from Shaker Hts.

Actually they were from the Glenville area of Cleveland. Both of their homes are being preserved:

Plus, I recommend that you read Brad Meltzer's Book of Lies. A mystery involving the gun that killed Jerry Seigel's father, and how that death led to the creation of Superman.
A very entertaining read.
