Henry Cavill should NOT be Superman!

[Lexrules]

No, being forced to migrate, and choosing to migrate are completely different. Even more so when it was his parents that made the decision for him, particularly because Kryptonians look like humans. Not because of US of A.

Good thing he just happen to have landed in the Greatest Country in the World.

Obviously since Superman is Kryptonian, he should be played by a Kryptonian.

haha this is awesome!

Well let's see.

Hugh Jackman played Wolverine. Christian Bale played Batman. Mel Gibson played William Wallace. Elija Wood played Frodo. Sean Astin played Samwise. Andrew Lincoln plays Rick Grimes. Clearly an actor is only capable of playing a character of the same nationality. Otherwise the movie or show will be a complete failure and in no way be a suitable representation of the source material. Oh wait...

Superman is 6'3", has black hair, blue eyes, fair skin and generally an athletic build and speaks with an american accent.

Good luck finding someone who can act and fulfils all those without hair dye, coloured contact lenses, lifts and a dialect coach, not that they'll probably bother with most of those after all Christian Bale didn't dye his hair or wear coloured contacts to play Bruce Wayne and he is also 2" too short but he probably did get a dialect coach.

He didn't need one. He usually plays Americans or uses a non-regional dialect. My accent until I was 18 or so was German-sh, it had been worked out of me and now I have a non-regional dialect. My girlfriend is from Russia, moved here when she was 6 and unlike me still speaks Russian but she also has no accent that indicates where is from. LEarning an American accent is easy and doesn't require a dialect coach.

Maybe Michael Clark Duncan shouldn't have been the Kingpin, either....

Famke Janssen shoulda never been Jean Grey.

Still meant to be NYC. Gotham City is meant to be Newark, NJ also.

No, Metropolis was originally based off of Cleveland and Toronto. It was later modeled after New York City. Gotham is modeled off of NYC, since the name Gotham is also used in association with NYC and has been long before Bob Kane and Bill Finger came along. As Denny O'Neil said, Gotham is lower Manhattan at two thirty in the morning. Metropolis is upper Manhattan during the afternoon.

That works too.

You crossed the line there. Clark Kent is a American Citizen. Smallville is in Kansas. Metropolis is New York City. And Yes, Superman is a American Icon created in Cleveland, Ohio.
