Superman's bulge worries movie bosses

[spazntwitch]

The new Superman is giving movie bosses a headache - because of the size of his bulge.

They fear Brandon Routh's profile in the superhero's skintight costume could be distracting, reports the Sun.

Hollywood executives have ordered the makers of Superman Returns to cover it up with digital effects.

The Sun's source said: "It's a major issue for the studio. Brandon is extremely well endowed and they don't want it up on the big screen.

"We may be forced to erase his package with digital effects."

Brandon, 26, has taken over the superhero's cape from the late Christopher Reeve.

Wardrobe artists have had to fit him with a special codpiece for the new film out next year.

BTW: They *really* should have had him wear blue contacts. Superman is just not Superman without those incredible ice-blue eyes like Christopher Reeve's!

Oh well!!

If you go to the link I posted before, you can go forward and backward to see other pictures. There is one of him climbing the stairs that I "wonder" about... Maybe that one hasn't been edited?

Here's the link to the "stairs" picture...

lol we girls are so bad! searching high and low for a before pic... not that guys aren't worse than us!!!! personally, i'm not that interested in his package, no matter how big it is. i mean, superman is a superhero- they're sort of asexual... even if they have kids, ya know?

Come on you guys. We all know Clark Kent works in journalism, he's the one that planted this story at The Sun and is simply trying to make himself look more manly.

DEFINITELY choice "b".


And that other link makes me want to go rent "The Turning Point", but I think my husband might leave me if I did. That one, and "Terms of Endearment" make him gag...
