Who is the best fallowing for Superman?

WHO IS the best fallowing for Christopher Reeves...
Who is the better Superman for the day? Is Brandon Routh realy the best Boy in Blue? Should the WB given Smallville been given more time, and eventually insted of a Season 8 finished off the coming season 7 with a New Superman Movie or should the CW still take that course and have their own line of Block Buster Hits.
If your a Die Hard, Christopher Reeves fan then I think you already know, what his answer was, with the support and porticipation of the Smallville Series. The action in Superman Returns was great but the rest left me bored and wanting.

I agree absolutely Tom Welling. Smallville is the best Superman TV series to date. Lois and Clark focused on the female audiance. Smallville has something for everybody.

Brandon Routh qualifications He won a Reeves look alike contest in a bar.
