superman to take on umpteenth director

Just let the project die already, people. Obviously it's having some problems. The project being the new Superman movie that seems to have been in production longer than I've been alive. Recently having ousted their latest director, McG of Charlie's Angels fame (and thank god), TPTB decided to attach a real director to the project once more: X-Men helmsman Brian Singer.

Now, the guy may be full of himself, yet he's got good reason to be, i.e. a very lucrative franchise that can say it's films are not only pretty, but smart. (Take that, you stupid Spidey-fans.) But do we really want a luke-warm Superman movie instead of a top-notch X3 to round out the X-Men series?

Keeping my fingers crossed that resolving the Phoenix saga comes before the Man of Steel.
