To drool or not to drool?

[valkyrieza]

Well, "Superman returns" officially opens on the 28th of June. The newcomer to the role, Brandon Routh is hailed as the next big hunk to hit Hollywood and every woman's appreciative gaze (and desktop). I do not know if Mr Routh is a good actor or not but in terms of droolworthiness I've downloaded a few pictures. What do you think? My mind is still undecided I'm afraid.

Or this headshot.

One one side, he does have the Superman comic looks (Mid-Western cornboy with a clefted chin) still, I am not yet convinced he should rank next to another perfectly recreated comic hunk, Christian Bale.
