I love that Singer's Superman Returns was so reverential and referential to the Christopher Reeve Superman series, but the Nolan Batman series is its own animal.

Chris Reeve's 1978 Superman started this whole thing. You can hardly make a Superman movie without acknowleding it. So many Batman flicks by so many different artists make that one more of a free reign zone.

And, of course, there were no previous Spiderman or IronMan movies to have to deal with.

I didn't see this summer's The Incredible Hulk - did it pay homage to the Ang Lee original??
