Listening to: Maneater - Nelly Furtado

I went to see Superman a few weeks ago… I never really engaged with the movie (which was actually quite good). The first reason is that I like my super heros flawed - Supes is too perfect for my taste. The second reason is that I saw very strong parallels between this incarnation of Superman and Jesus. I found the allusions distracting, not in a good way or a bad way, but in the same way you find movement in your peripheral vision distracting. BBC World has a good article discussing the issue.
