See Rachel laughing is the best part in the drugs branch. The face distorted by laughing with the wrinkle on cheek make her more beautiful than any make-up. That and Zatch meditations about society we're the only parts I really enjoyed. I hate drugs but that branch wasn't unpleasant as I expected. Proof of the Hat writing skills.
I will love to see an epilogue where Rachel, Zatch, Kylie and Chloe talk friendly in a bar about themselves. Their hopes, their lives, their sexual fantasies... See them having fun, living carefree for a bit.
About Superman, when we're children his stories made us live other worlds. We may now realize the plots were stupid, but all the enjoyment and experiences they gave us was real. We need to treasure it and be grateful to the authors. And I don't know about the others actors but Christopher Reeve made us believe that Clark Kent was different from Superman just by shrugging his shoulders wearing glasses and showing a cowardly attitude.
And actual videogames are derp? You're making a good videogame!! It's a matter of knowing how to look beyond the mainstream products.
