I saw Superman Returns on Wednesday night. Overall, I considered the movie entertaining and a creditable effort, but nothing I'd go out of my way to see more than once. The critics gave it an average rating of "B-", and I'd say that's about right. Anyway, what I thought I'd share with the list was something that kept popping into my head every time the subject of the romantic involvement between Superman and Lois Lane came up during the movie (i.e. fairly frequently). Has anyone ever read or heard of Larry Niven's short story "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex"? Niven speculates as to what the consequences of an intimate relationship between a human woman and a Kryptonian male.
