I don't want to spoil <i>Superman Returns</i> for you, but Branson's cameo made me curious. Thanks for your post -- that Singer is one of a hundred Virgin Galactic founders is an interesting detail. I imagine it was a good deal for both: Singer has secured his spot in space and Branson has VG's first [albeit subliminal] commercial.
