I'm going to see a screening of Superman Returns on IMAX at the Franklin Institute in Philly tonight. So is one of my old roommates. The only difference is that while I'm driving to Philly from Allentown, he's flying to Philly from Boca Raton, FL.
Yeah, that's a little extreme. He sent me a text message this morning on the way to the airport to say some people are lining up outside theaters down there already with capes and such. I didn't have the heart to mention that's almost on the same level as hopping a jet to see a movie screening.
I'm looking forward to it, of course (mostly because it's the IMAX version and IMAX is sweet) but I'm not the biggest Superman fan to begin with. He's too much of a clean-cut pretty boy - I like my superheroes dark and gritty. I'm sure the movie will be good, but will it be fly-up-from-the-south good?
Oh well, here's to everyone camping out waiting for this one to open. Look for my review of the Superman Returns IMAX experience tomorrow.
