Will they choose an annoying sounding British man, completely contradicting the concept of Superman growing up in America, or some city-raised basketball-American that will litter the script with slang and ebonics that only the most astute of mumble rappers would be able to decipher? I'm not sure which I would hate more. Probably the Brit.
You yanks sound way more annoying with your sloppy replication of our language ;)
I don't mean that English accents are annoying (except cockney), just that Superman should never sound anything other than average middle-American, like Bond should never be anything other than a proud Briton. I would happily watch a small skit of Superman with a Yorkshire accent, though. I'd have a good laugh at that.
