Poll Question:

Agreed with RyGoR

I find it funny. It's alwaaaays poor Jimmy boy ;P

^LMFAO ;D

Jimmy always gets the short end of the stick

i would actually consider jenny olsen to be a different character diff name sex .... itd be cool if that was like his cousin or something idk

It amazes me how easily people sell out. We can get boobs anywhere and we can add new characters for diversity. But hey, let's just destroy a brand, an icon's mythology and a legacy with stupid things like this and Perry White being black.

It also amazes me how disposable they have made any white male characters in Hollywood and in comics. Lets make everything women and black guys what the hell

Superman has been done a hundred different ways, with some believing the definitive version was the 1978 movie. So, I think Nolan and Snyder have a pass to shake things up bit.

I felt that Nolan's DARK KNIGHT series would have been the definitive Batman, until he went and screwed with a much more important part of the myth -- that of Dick Grayson as Robin.

What happened to all the cries to "STICK TO THE SOURCE MATERIAL!"?
I find it weird that Jimmy Olsen looks like Lois Lane and Lois looks like Jimmy.

@grimfoe - you nailed it. Perry White being black? Eh, a little different but nothing major at all. That's fine. Lois lane a red head? Ok it's starting to change the classic look of a much more famous character but its just her hair. I can live with that. No Jimmy Olsen?? Well that's just...that's just sad! Changing someone from white to black doesn't really change that character. Changing them from make to female? Completely different person. If they felt they needed more females they should just make up a new character instead of ousting a favorite like Jimmy. (Side note: I really liked the Jimmy in Superman Returns. Thought he was great)

And no, getting upset that someone is a different race or gender does not necessarily mean they are racist/sexist. It can, but usually doesnt. it just means they are a devoted fan albeit a little too shortsighted probably.

White males are so disposable that they make up like 90% of the starring roles in Hollywood. The stupid, it hurts.

With Jenny Olsen and Lois Lane, this movie might actually pass the Bechdel test, unlike Avengers, The Dark Knight Returns, and Amazing Spiderman).

Bechdel test: Movie must have 1. At least two (named) female characters 2. Who at some point talk to each other 3. About something other than men.

Jimmy hasn't really been Superman's pal in any adaption (maybe like the first season of Lois & Clark, but not even then)...

i dont think hes athrow away charector but i voted number 3 anyways,cuase im not gonna let a side charector (Prominate and important or not) ruin the film fer me.

AbeVigoda what you said is just stupid and i pandering to portion of he audience that are minorities

@NoAssemblyReqd id like to counter your point in saying that they screwd robin in tdkr that wasnt robin the sidekick hero that was just a cop who hadthe first name robin ive known robins (people named robin not dick, tim, jason or damian)

IM [frick]ING TIRED OF SEXISTS AND RACISTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And im not talking about those that are bothered by the changes but those that are attacking people that are bothered by it, and calling them racist and/or sexsist. Its not racist to want it to stick to the source material. I dont think race really matters as much but for some people i can see that being that it does kinda seem like superhero movies are being really racist. Not by not having enough other ethnic groups but by making a point to change the sex of a charector,and use the black version of another. Just to "add diversity" MAKE NEW CHARECTORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GODDAMN IT!! Im not bothered in the slightest that Perry Whites black but im kinda bothered by Jimmy's sex change. For real. A black guy replacing a white guy is much different then a male getting replaced by a female,not to be sexsist but BOTH GENDERS WORK HELLA DIFERENTLY AND THINK DIFFERENTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also if they were to turn a female charector male or a black charector white,people would call them sexsist and racist if they do the opposite people just role over and go "OH WELL" Im sick of it the whole "Black/WHite" thing doesnt bother me. But when they start changing the SEX of our charectors i start to get pissed. I wont let it kill the film for me tho

Jimmy was always a bitch. It fits.

Its Zack Snyder. Figures he would want more boobs

Yes, frankly it ticks me completely off!

I can understand maybe changing his race, but his sex?

Give me a freakin break!

My only complaint is that Olsen is a Scandinavian last name and this actress playing her looking more arab than causasion. Not to mention they used an actress not as good looking as Amy Adams to make her look better. Honestly Rachel Mcadams should have been Louise Lane
