...Ray Soufflé. Frying those pork chops may cost upwards of $33 million -without apple sauce. The budget is already well over the target of $25 million. Before the movie is finished. Superman will have 1) soldered together the Golden Gate Bridge, which has been cut in half by an earthquake, 2) rescued the President's airplane from a thunderstorm, 3) tamed the waters from a collapsing dam, 4) plucked a speedboat full of criminals from the East River and set it down, still dripping, on Wall Street, 5) caught a crashing helicopter in midair, 6) flown round...
