Superman can be beaten. It depends on the level of his powers in the story. In the Animated Series for example, he had to wear a space suit to breathe outside the atmosphere. He can be made perfectly beatable if it suits the story.
However he has weaknesses besides Kryptonite. He gets his power from the sun. Cut that off and he's in all sorts of trouble.
As awesome as The Dark Knight Returns is, it looks like they might be getting some stuff from that for this movie. So if you don't want any potential spoilers, don't read it/about it at least until after you see this film.
thanks for the heads up. i do recall in one of the original superman movies there was a nuclear superman who beat up superman, and pummelled him into the moon. i think that weakened him, but of course superman won in the end.
then i guess it raises questions, can superman fight in the dark? so many questions, too much time! im guessing forums and threads on this epic movie will be a hotbed of discussion until the movie airs. its gonna rival GoT for conflict between comic book readers (it only takes one) and the uninitiated over spoilers and the like.
