Ya know sheyne, I was *ahem* watching for any 'package' money shots in 'Superman', but they did a really good job of smooooooooooothing things out, dammitall.
Yep, that underwear shot is a lot more graphic than Ka-el in his blue and red threads.

Absolutely! :o
However, is it just my imagination, or is the waistline of that red brief a little lower than it used to be?
I dug out an old, old still photo of Chris Reeve that I had stuck in a drawer somewhere, and I swear the waistline is higher on his costume than on Brandon's. To be fair, though, it also looks as though the brief on Chris Reeve's costume is also cut higher on the thigh than it is on Brandon's.

:'( I was looking for some money shots, too, but sadly enough I couldn't find any. How dare them smooth things out!! :'(

Indeed! Was rather indignant myself at the digital castration... I mean for the love of all that is bulging, there was one shot where he looked positively... flat... down there.. That scene where he flies up to get a bit of strength from the sun.. the camera moved up his body and there was a shot of him from above and looking down.. NO damn bulge at all!! I'm like, what are they wanting to turn him into a woman??
But thanks to my net trawling, we have a package shot, in AAAAALL its glory...
What the hang, I'll post it again.. ;D ;D
and this one for good measure, although its not as good an angle.. I just look at his thumbs in this shot and keep thinking "that's right, pull them DOWN" :P

No, its not your imagination at all, Jeff. Here's a comparison of the two boys in their blue threads:
Chris Reeve's pants are clearly higher on the waist and higher cut on the thigh. But look at underwear back then, compared with now... With everything being "hipster" and "boy leg" these days, Brandon's were always going to reflect current fashion...
Brandon also has a far smaller "S" on his chest and its made of rubber... *oooh boy...think unsexy thoughts...think unsexy thoughts* ;D
