In the two days since the new Pirates film opened, I have seen at least five comments about it on my F-list. In the elven days since Superman Returns opened, I have seen two.

I wonder if this confirms my sense that no matter how iconic Superman is, he just doesn't resonate that much anymore. People are just not as interested in him as in a charming rogue. Is it because Supes is outdated? Because there have been too many Sueprman films and TV shows? Is it that Jack Sparrow is still something new and that Johnny Depp is a bigger draw than an unknwon actor channeling Chris Reeve? Or it is that the new movie just isn't that exciting and leaves people with little to say?

Any thoughts?

Gotta wonder...was there anyone on the planet (aside from the French) watching the World Cup Final who didn't start rooting for Italy after Zidane's headbutt?

I wonder what the Frnech nenwspapers will do wtih him tomorrow.

Congrats to Italy. See you in four years.
