jesus was the old black also, which is why the "war on christmas" and the american christian martyr stuff is so laughable

There can be no other superman than Superman, an Christopher Reeves is Superman.

I was unaware that Mario Puzo did most of the drafts for the 1977 Superman. They must have gotten a Marlon Brando soundalike, because the closing line in the trailer doesn't appear in the '77 script.

they need the light! my only son! Wow, they're not even trying to be subtle. Jesus should have been an alien, that would have made the Bible more of an interesting read. Also, Mary Magdelene would have made a bitching Lane. Oh yeah, I can see it all in my head now. Jesus beating the people in the temple not with a whip but with tentacles.

Is Superman now fighting on the side of Jesus in The War on Christmas?

Nope, that's Marlon Brando. The line is in the Christopher Reeve movie. The reason for using it isn't to make the Jesus connection but to make the connection to the Christopher Reeve Superman series so that no one mistakes it for a big screen adaptation of the TV series Smallville.
