Humorous Breakdown of J.J. Abrams' Cancelled SUPERMAN: FLYBY Movie

Mr. Sunday Movies released a great video that amusingly breaks down everything you need to know about J.J. Abrams' cancelled Superman: Flyby film. As you'll learn in the video below, it seems like Abrams and his team had one big Superman brain fart after another. McG was originally attached to direct the film, but dropped out, and Warner Bros. didn't want Abrams to direct it even though he wanted to. This was before J.J. Abrams earned his clout in Hollywood. Instead the studio went to Brett Ratner! Why? Because apparently the studio hated talented directors. Anyway, there's a lot fun stuff here about the background and story for the movie and it's definitely worth checking out. I would have liked to see how Abrams' vision of Superman turned out even though I don't think I would have liked it.
