@@Karlebow571 Yeah....I don't think Homelander was a fraction as strong as Superman or he likely would've saved them all and the plane. Homelander was driven by PR and having people love him above all else. He was being pragmatic when he said he could only save Maven. Sure he was a dick and was only good when it suited his ratings; but big PR wins were the only thing he really cared about in the end. Saving nobody vs saving an entire plane with hundreds of people? I believe that he would've saved them all if he could. That would've been huge for his image.
Some people have described the feats Superman can accomplish as "tactile telekinesis" 🤓 As in, when he grips something like the plane in this clip, he also subconsciously applies some kind of TK power that holds the thing he's gripping together. Because as Homelander said on his plane, strength alone just means you punch through the plane, not that you can grip it
keep in mind, this film was made in the 70's. Airplanes back then were crashing a lot back then. Fast forward to the 2000, there have improvements to airplane safety. Unless you live in Africa or Russia, you really don't hear about airplanes crashing due to mechanical failure or weather conditions.
Statistically speaking, trains were the safest way to travel. They still are. It's just that planes are less likely to hit someone along the way. But when they hit the ground it's too late to pray.
I can’t believe I never noticed before. But then again, this is one of the first times that I watch this on a tablet that’s about a foot from my face. 🤷🏻♀️
That's not the only time a Superman actor cameoed as a voice role in his own film. Henry Cavill (in his native, English accent) was the voice of the Kryptonian pilot attempting to arrest Jor-El in the opening of Man of Steel. I wonder if they'll keep the tradition going with David Corenswet.
i love how at the end they looked out and reeves looked over as if to say . . yup im still here guys its ok . . brings tears to my eyes . . im such a dork
Clearly Donner Gave us a Timeless Classic with Superman. He Could have just Made this into B-Movie Flop, But Donner went All out. He Made this a Serious, at Times Humorous, Emotional & High Octane EPIC Film that set the Tone for Other Superhero Movies to Come After.
Just realised Superman saved Air Force One. He wanted to introduce himself to The President to show him (and the rest of the world) he was here to help and not be a menace. Oh, and to save lives as well :-)
@@heavenlyderpfowl1180Superman will help anyone in need-anyone. It just so happens that the person in need at that moment was the President of the United States.
Fun fact: This scene was an homage to the original episode that segment from the TZ movie was a remake of, because Richard Donner was the original director of that episode.
How many things are wrong with this amazing scene 1) The airspace around AF1 is always closed. They are the only plane in the sky. The entire airspace is at their beck and call including runways. 2) the crew resource management in this plane sucks. One of the officers in the back would be navigating. Aviate, Navigate, Communicate. 3) No one pulled out a checklist. One of the pilots would be flying and the other running checklists. 4) 747s can land on 2 engines. Losing one would barely slow the plane down. 5) No need to tell ATC that the president is on board. If the plane has the call sign of Air Force one, the president is on board. Remember when Harrison Ford landed on the ramp and the Air force officer announced a change of call signs. 6) Air Force One isn't flying through a convective sigmet. They are going above or around. I still love this scene and Fly, don't look, just fly. I also love the first officer looking at a paper sectional.
But you have to give them credit that was a pretty accurate format for an ATIS reading! Also that's a 707 not a 747 (or whatever the military variants are called) but point about the engine still applies.
I think there was a mistake with which side of the plane was hit by lightning, so they had to reverse the footage of Superman grabbing the wing(you can see his hair and the S symbol are backwards) so that it would match up with the rest of the footage, and that might account for the hand holding the plane switching from right to left.
@@danielesteve8359 statistically speaking thor existed even thousand years before as a Greek god. Before superman was even a thing. Infact many superheroes including superman have taken inspiration from those stories.
Superman's first night: Saves Lois from falling from a crashed helicopter on the side of a building Saves the public below from that same crashed helicopter that fell Caught a whole bunch of criminals and put their escape boat on to main street Saved the President of the United States. Greatest superhero first night in history.
Yeah, I saw some behind the scenes footage years ago and it turns out that they accidentally made a prop for the left wing but blew up the right wing of the airplane prop. So to correct this the just mirrored the shot of superman.
I think its the altitude alert warning, it'll sound 900 ft nearing or leaving assigned altitude set in the Mode Control Panel >> ruclips.net/video/mTSh4a-HG5c/видео.htmlsi=M-VOT4WU6bDMazKq
Wasn’t fair they didn’t show the president it should’ve not just been the captain to see Superman save them it should’ve been both him and the president
Hey! We Have A Mandala Effect! CALLING ALL Boomers and Gen-Xers! Look at the plane's engines. In the old movie passenger jet engines used to be nicely tucked under the wing. But now the plane's engines here in this scene are OUT and FORWARD just like the majority of airplane engines are in the 21st century. Does anyone else keenly remember Superman being squarely under the plane's wing when he was flying to keep AF1 up in the sky?
I've always remembered Superman grabbing the frame of the engine's shell as shown. Most airliners back then had engines mounted on pylons as shown on this 707. The 747, DC-10, L1011, etc were similar. The 737 of that time had unique looking engines. The modern 737s engines do have the "out and forward" engine design.
Since you are being a smarty pants...its a 707 :)... I also remember thinking about the redundancy but they also said they lost part of the wing...the tip.

After seeing homelander saying it’s impossible to save a plane, I watched this to see a real hero do the job.
I still hate homelander after what he did

Nah homie is just lazy to do it because Vought can back him up from his crimes.
Well of course. Homelander is not a hero. He's a coward and a terrorist. Homelander only cares about himself.

1:22 Hands down, one of my very favorite lines in any movie I've seen.
This is right after Superman told Lois
“Statistically speaking, flying is still the safest way to travel”
Lol

Actually this is right after he saved frisky
technically speaking, a Boeing 707 will fly with three engines just fine
Statistically speaking, trains were the safest way to travel. They still are.
It's just that planes are less likely to hit someone along the way. But when they hit the ground it's too late to pray.
Supermans salute is better then most officer's in the military

This isn't Reeves. This is Chrisopher Reeve.
Same m wilson.
The Homelander: "I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that."
Yo, that airplane in the boys had a death pilot
Na he would have been like good only three to destroy less work for me!
Why didn't this comment get more likes🤣
Superman is more hero than homelander ever be
The pilot catching himself waving back like it's someone else's hand.

Just watched this on HBO Max yesterday. This was one of my favorite scenes in the movie
Best response is from the senior officer onboard
Modern SUperman movies nee to recapture the feeling of these movies.
We’re not in 1978 anymore, so stop it and let it go.
what im hoping James Gunn Superman Legacy does with a easy action to follow
@arcticangel1628 What's wrong with a comic book film showing a superhero inspiring the good side in all of humanity?
Or any film for that matter.

Best scene ever..
The best supermann ever...
Hands down!
Better than Henry Cavill
@@jacobpalmer2572 FACT!!!
That cockpit is so cramped.
thats what he said!
No CGI bullshit..just great effects and of course some John Williams magic
Dude, there's way more 'CGI' out there than you're even noticing, trust me.
1978
I know, right? Excellent practical effects without CGI bullshittery.
Actually, there was cgi in the movie. The opening titles (and maybe the end credits) were made that way.
"Don't look. Just fly. We got..... something. I ain't saying what it is. Just trust me."
Best Superman movie. Far better than all the recent Marvel rubbish.
Pity he didn't turn up to deal with the gremlin vandalising the engine in The Twillight Zone movie.

Just fly is how most would react
I like how the pilot does not want to reveal Superman
My opinion. One of the best movie scenes ever. Definitely top10.
The pilot waving at him and realising what the fuck am i doing 😂 why am i waving
Lmao when he waves at him
The salute says it all and makes the whole scene.
1:21 🤣🤣
The best Superman, the only Superman (although Dean Cain is next for me)
Therrrrrrrrrrrres someman on the wing. SomeMAAAAAAN!
Just fly I’m dead
0:08 that voice sounds a bit like Christopher Reeve
It is him
Every time I see this scene, I can't help but laugh as the pilot waves back at superman.
Grabs plane with right hand then is flying holding it with left hand a second later. :)

Thor accidentally destroy the engine of the airplane.

It's literally all pilots looking outside...
Superman: 😎
Homelander:☠️
I love this scene,although a plane already airborne at altitude only needs half of its thrust so 2 engines would be fine
"There's someone on the wing. Something." The Twilight Zone

How many pilots and fight engineers does AF1 need? I didn't think there was room for all those people in the cockpit!
Vous êtes parti de quel aéroport jusqu'à quel endroit
The planes holding up superman
Better to see Superman out there than the Gremlin from The Twilight Zone Movie.
Quel modèle d'avion que vous avez pris
Planes don't drop like this
Not sure if anyone is replying or not but what was that weird noise the plane made after loosing it’s engine?

Est-ce que la marque de l'avion existe encore dans la vraie vie
Oui
Maybe Superman Can save Boeing 737😂! Signed team Lafayette 🇨🇵
the didn't loose just the engine but part of the wing.
A lightning cannot harm a plane
Losing an engine doesn't have that effects
But it's Hollywood, so it's ok
Maybe superman could save mh370 ✈️
Special effects are not bad😅
Je veux savoir c'est quoi l'aéroport vous m'avez toujours pas écrit
The plane can easely fly on 3 engines
Xander Guldie A piece of the wing was missing.
It was front heavy in the cockpit with 5 pilots. Did you notice its nose immediately started to dip.
Oh my god it's Buzz Killington!
But part of the wing was gone as well; according to pilot, so maybe that is why they were plummeting... as we saw.
And now it can easily fly with Superman 😊
