He was born to play superman/Clark/Kent. No one has played the goofy Clark and switch to badass superman mode like Christopher Reeve.
CJ S 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I agree even though I have to say Henry cavill was born to play superman as well.
Yeah, he out did his Father George Reeve 👍👍
Without a doubt, Best Superman ever
he knew how to play both sides of the character ,clark kent was a role kal el played to blend in with the humans reeves embodied that polarity .MOS clark n kal are one and the same they blurred the line that kal el himself and alot of super heroes create which is alter ego and hero persona
I love how Lois instantly softens once she realises Clark sends half his paycheck home 😊
She can hear the $$!
@@manoman0 She makes more than him.... She just thinks its very sweet that he is supporting his mother
There was quite a bit of accidental groin contact between Clark Kent and Lois Lane in this scene.
When his pants got drenched, she tried to wipe it off his pants with her bare hands and stroked his johnson.
And when he walked to his desk she backed up and instigated a spooning.
Lucky (super) man.
@@mr.objective6936 You are missing Jim Olsen’s hand shake that’s far too low.
Ha. I didn’t try to think of that because I don’t go that way.
Excellent observation.
Christopher Reece is the only actor that could convince me that no one would notice that Clark looks exactly like Superman and vice versa … his Clark was so clumsy, so wholesome, so agreeable and even kinda physically awkward to the extent that you can almost believe no one would notice that it’s the same guy
Reece? lol
@@kellymulderino7156 Who's Reece? lol
@@enriquealvarado1812 read your post :)
The actor playing Clark here is named Christopher Reeve. However, it was spelled as "Reece" in the original comment. Either way you spell it, Chris is hands down the best Clark Kent and Kal-El!
Enrique, if you press the 3 vertically stacked dots on your post in the top right corner, you will see edit and delete. Hit edit, then correct “Reece” to Reeve and and voila, no more flack. Cheers.
“...but he is, in my 40 years in this business, the fastest TYPIST I’ve ever seen!” One of the best lines in the whole film LOL
It's so, so cool that in the middle of this flawless newsroom scene that could be from any realistic 20th-century film, Perry casually references an alien having solar-powered super-cells from another galaxy without realizing it. This film is everything.
I like how the Chief describes Clark Kent as "mild-mannered".
Second best line. The best line he had was: "Olsen! Why am I paying you $25 to be a photographer when I should have you arrested for loitering!"
Meant $40. Been a while since I saw this movie 😂
jennifersman “I’m here to fight for Truth and Justice and the American Way. “
The way Reeve delivers that "Uh Not really, No" line is so perfect. There is so much in that one line.
Agreed. Everyone in the theater chuckled at the layers of meaning in that line. And at the emotional wistfulness Clark Kent probably felt.
**"There is so much punch in that line"**
My art teacher, who also taught acting in school, always raved about Reeves, calling him the best actor of all time. After having watched Superman 1 and 2 this weekend, I know why,
Saw this at the perfect age of 10 when it came out. Loved this line then and love it now. Tell me you are an alien from a dead race without actually telling me you are an alien.
"Of course not Lois.... I mean w, why would anyone wanna make a... total stranger look like a fool". Amazing performance, so many subtle nuances in his voice, expressions & body language. I also love the way that he looks at Lois once they're sat down. It's like he is trying to process her, deciding whether he likes her or whether he thinks she's an arrogant so & so.
He's using xray vision to see them titties
Big Sexy LOL
I guess jor el didn't teach him sarcasm.
I look at this scene now and see the #metoo moment where Clark Kent "puts Lois in her place" by "accidentally" rubbing her up. ButI still love it. Then he's just staring at her. Kind of creepy, but it works to sell Kent as an obviously very handsome man who is REALLY weird, nerdy, and someone a woman wouldn't like upon first meeting. This is my favorite movie, and I still catch nuances that I wouldn't have caught as a child. This staring moment is brilliant. He lets her know that he's interested by staring at her (a little creepy) right after feeling her up. It automatically makes him less desirable. And, of course, Superman is a total gentleman (even after looking at her pink panties.). I say they're brilliant choices, all around. I even saw the guy in a red shirt try to give Jimmy his tea. I LOVE THIS MOVIE SO MUCH!!!
@@robynpayne3323 wtf are you on about you weirdo 😂 clark is clumsy! He did not mean to rub off lois ......
Christopher Reeve's perfectly calibrated physical acting in every scene as Clark Kent cannot be overstated. Look at how he struggles to open the bottle. Look at how the door hits him at 1:41; it moves him naturally, like it would anyone else. He plays it so perfectly, from the way he hunches to the way he speaks... nobody ever really captured how difficult pretending to be Clark must have been for Supes better than Reeve, and it's why he'll never be matched.
I agree. I think it's a lot harder for an actor to play Clark Kent than Superman.
It’s like how a lot of actors can’t play Both Bruce Wayne and Batman. Like most actors can do a good Bruce Wayne but a bad Batman or a good Batman but not a good Bruce Wayne.
" it moves him naturally, like it would anyone else"
Yes, but he's not superman in real life.
A question: Shouldn't that door had broken after hitting clark?
@@raulbetancourt5795 -- If you watch the sequence closely he moves his body away as soon as the door touches his back. If he didn't move an inch that door is likely shattered.
Everyone is so perfectly casted in this movie
Yeah they were
@Zesanactor Over-5 so out of curiosity I went through the comments and I went through the replies... I started seeing a pattern of you popping up to say man of steel is the best and this is shit, do you either say it to troll or do you actually mean what you say
GodZpeed X7 name one actor who was miscast in this movie.
@White Krispy She's not ugly at all.
I have never seen this movie, only bits in youtube, i guess i will give it a try
Edit - graphics are old so i am kinda confused, should i watch it or not
You got to love Christopher Reeves performance as Clark Kent. He really pulled off the clumsy mild manner reporter side of him from the comics and he was a awsome Superman. I kinda wish Henry Cavill could make his Clark Kent more clumsy so people won't suspect him as Superman, but he makes another great Superman in my opinion.. R.I.P. Christopher Reeves he was a great iconic man.
Clark hasn't been clumsy in a LONG time. People forget that the Reeve movies were based on Silver Age Superman, where "Clark Kent" was just a disguise. The modern interpretation is that Clark Kent is the real man and Superman is just his public superhero persona.
I absolutely loved Christopher Reeve! Not just as Superman but as an Actor and human being! He was a huge loss!! On a side note.... His last name is without the "S".... It's George Reeves who played Superman in the TV series.
Reeve! Reeve! No 's'!!! Thank you. That is all, lol
Yeah but Lois smart-ass always figured it out that he was Superman.
@@williestriggs3989 In the comics she finds out only after Kent tells her.
Rest in peace to Margot Kidder and Christopher Reeve. The definitive Lois Lane and Clark Kent/Superman.
@Zesanactor Over-5 yes we are
They're flying together in heaven.
@GodZpeed X7 in your brainless skull, they aren't. I bet you're a trumptard.
@@gargouenzene yea no and no
@Essig What are the high points? smh
That struggle with the bottle! amazing. Reeve's great acting totally made "glasses" a believable disguise.
1:37 "... but he is in my 40-years in this business, the fastest typist I have ever seen."
There's something about that line that's just so perfect. I don't know why, but it kinda makes sense that Clark Kent would pretend to be so weak that he can't open a bottle but he can type faster than anyone.
Why does that work? Don't know.
I think it's because Clark would want to come out as awkward and insecure, not incompetent. Some people got to see the awesome person under the awkwardness, but most got stuck with the awkwardness and that threw them off. It made him invisible and paid the bills.
he's probably so proficient at it that he didn't realize he was way ahead of everyone else. That and it reminds the audience of who he truly is.
Great insight!
it would only work with Christopher Reeve, that's how good he was as SUPERMAN!
Because he was still learning how to use his superpowers and sometimes he slipped up a little, in this case with the typing
0:35
The sheer amount of physical control needed to not only not break the bottle, but actually make it look like he's struggling to open it.
I mean, considering the RNG you get on some bottles, he may really be struggling with it. ;P
@@UltimaKeyMaster Nah hes superman, that was all an act.
Love this. Shows off just how much of a Boy Scout Clark is. "Actually she's silver haired."
Then Lois fell in love. It was only for a second, but it happened.
Yes, it was such a perfect line.
Can you explain this to me.. Why does that make him a boyscout?
Connor Limes He’s still a dutiful son and Kansas Farm boy inside.
@@bookwoman53 Doesnt make him a boy scout. Hes loyal and responsible for his mother, and he takes pride and joy in being so. Hate that term Boy Scout. Overused label
2:15 "Any more at home like you?", and Clark's reply, is way more poignant if you figure that he's interpreting "home" as "Krypton". There's literally no one left.
EXACTLY. Loved that.
Or Smallville, for that matter, since he's the only (known) Kryptonian existent at the time.
Nope, he's definitely one of a kind
Well in the second movie we get to meet a trio of kryptonians... sadly they "aren't" like him.
Well don't forget Supergirl the movie with Helen Slater, which is in the same universe and continuity and the City of Argo who are all kryptonians basically
I love the contrast between Lois meeting Clark and Lois meeting Superman
Yes, that says a lot about female nature.
Christopher Reeve should have gotten an Oscar nomination for this role he made it look so effortless 👍
He sends half of his salary to his mother
Sweetest thing ever
don't see that anymore, do ya?
That's because only half of him has any use for money. ;)
All men should do that honestly our mother's did so so much for us when we was young(most of them anyways)
iooi Superman does eat...when he's hungry. That's what he tells Lois at her apartment. But he doesn't need medical insurance or a car and he doesn't take any vacations...so I guess that saves a lot of money.
Lois: Don't tell me. He sends a check to his sweet grey haired old mother.
Clark: Actually she's silver haired.
😂😂😂😂
Emperor of the universe
All these years I thought he said, "She sold all her hair".
I ADORE Lois ! Especially Margot's ❤️
@@robertherrick6703 You must've been as dumb as your profile picture to think that's what Reeve said that whole time.
@@mikefit3343 How dare you mock the picture of the mighty Cornelius.
'swell' is making a comeback. you heard it here first
A 20 year old friend of mine used it in an online conversation today....and it totally reminded me of this scene!
@@MovieMouseFarmgirl how swell
Endgame used it too
Also heard in Superman returns
I use it all the time. Was never aware how out of sync it was and I'm 21 lmao.
It feels like real busy newspaper offices, with real characters interacting and living actual lives - with just the right amount of comic book zing. It's doesn't just seem like a bunch of posers just trying to look cool and slick all the time...
Yeah like most movies today. The obsessive desire to look as cool and as perfect as possible has destroyed any believability in films these days.
Donner's catchphrase that served him so well with this movie: VERISIMILITUDE
Brandon did a good job w/ 3 out of 4 Superman 👍👍🍷
Can you stop being a Jack-ass to people who have a different opinion to you. I like Reeves version of Clark/Superman because it's before comicbook movies went really serious. I like Caviles version because...because...give me a reason besides him pulling off the superman look.
@Zesanactor Over-5 This was made soon after All the President's Men very accurately recreated The Washington Post newsroom and the influence is obvious. Depicting Clark Kent and Lois Lane in a similar environment as Woodward and Bernstein was an efficient way to meld the comics' heroic reporters created in the 1930s with the post-Watergate mythology of the Fourth Estate.
Could Christopher Reeve look any more handsome? Could Margot KIdder be any more beautiful? What chemistry
@GodZpeed X7 Amy Adams?
Christopher and Margot, my favorite duo as Clois ❤️
Margot def could've been prettier, look at the lineup they had for all the Lois's before her, they were WAYYYY prettier
Find out next time on dragon ball z !
@@homeb0ys7515 find out never on Dragon ball z
Rest In Peace Margot Kidder and Christopher Reeve.
My favorite duo as Clois ❤️
As incredible as Christopher Reeve's performance is in this movie, Margot Kidder has to be the best Lois Lane ever. She's acting her heart out, too, without stepping on the main character's performance.
chris reeves was a great clark kent...you could nearly believe he was a different guy to superman.....reeve made kent a bumbling `ole` boy, who loves his little old silver haired mama and says `swell`.
@GodZpeed X7 Sorry Man of Steel sucked and put me to sleep. Also horrible dialogue and they made Superman a freaking madman!
@GodZpeed X7 I am a HUGE Man of Steel fan...
Love Henry Cavill as Superman!
... I only saw these Christopher Reeves' Superman clip on youtube within the last week.
I've changed my stance since then. Christopher Reeve is SUPERIOR compare to Henry. The movie looks more fun whereas modern one looks BLUE-ish and boring.
@@tonytran07 The problem with Man of steel is mainly Zack Snyder. He even mentions in an interview that after directing watchmen he had “deconstructed” the superhero genre and coming off of that he attempted to do the same with Superman as a character but missed the entire point of Superman as a character. These movies got him down perfectly and aside from some special effects it holds up today imo
2.32. He grabbed her private part.
@Pedro Ivan Sanchez Agree. Christopher Reeve was and always will be the real Superman!
"Why would anyone want to make a total stranger look like a fool"?
Right after behaving like he can't open a twist off cap.
One of Superman's greatest lines out of these films. He so clearly knows what he's doing, but it's reserved for the audience.
Always loved good ole Jackie Cooper as Perry White. “..and don’t call me sugar!”
''Man of Steel'' simply lacks the charm and warmth that this film had, Christopher Reeve, by far the very best Superman ,....ever !!
@Zesanactor Over-5 No. Fuck you. This superman movie has the chemistry. Man of Steel is a good movie but absolutely can not reach this one's atmosphere. Clark Kent and Lois, Superman and Lois, both are amazing here. 😊
You are right. 👏🏻 👍🏻🤗
@Zesanactor Over-5 Comparing the "78" Superman to the Henry Cavils version is like comparing Ice cream to horse manure.
@Zesanactor Over-5 It's spelled "Cavill," and you'd think a fanboy would know that
*stop, my invincible son*
whilst I loved "Man of Steel" there is truth to your comment. Unfortunately films today are just simply not made in the same way anymore
I can imagine back in 1978 all the women aweeeing in the audience with love in their eyes when he asked for half his salary to be sent to his mother.
@Stellvia Hoenheim Ehhhhh no not all woman. sir. 🤔😑.
Between this movie and the recent Man of Steel, this movie is swell!
JENDALL714
Nobody can duplicate Christopher Reeve's performance. And I suppose they shouldn't even try.
JENDALL714, this movie is 40 years old this year, and is much better that Man of Steel.
You know what there's only a few people left in this world who is actually comfortable using that word: swell.
JENDALL714 It sure is swell! The best!!!
I can't bring myself to watch anyone else in the roles of Superman/Clark and Lois. These two were the perfect incarnations.
Well I do like Lois & Clark, but I certainly could not bear to watch Man of Steel. It looks horrible.
@@aaronrosby7748 patience.
The chemistry between this Clark and Lois will never be matched
Any more at home like you? Understatement since he is kast son of Krypton.
"aah, not really. No!" He delivers that line brilliantly with a hint of sarcasm & sadness.
I love that even before she’s introduced to Superman and his otherworldly powers, “humble, earnest, doofy country boy” Clark Kent is the one Lois gawks at like he’s from another planet.
the only one Superman forever
Leana Jo indeed he was. Many. People say Henry is better looking. I disagree, Christopher was a beautiful man.
Christoper didn't need a padded suit, like Henry. In fact, Christoper was supposed to wear a padded suit, but he rejected it because he thought it wouldn't look right. He went on fitness regime so he could feel out the suit.
I would not discount George Reeves, who brought an aura of gravitas to the Superman portrayal and was in his own way as good a Clark Kent as Christopher Reeve was -- just two different spins on Clark, but both takes are among the best screen portrayals of Clark.
@GodZpeed X7 He did wear a padded suit. Do you think the dude has silver skin? Because the silver accents you see in muscle of the DCEU suits are Muscle Suit. It doesn't matter how thicc you are, spandex would not be form your muscles unless it's padded. Oh and by the way, to this day many people still say Christopher Reeve is still the best Superman, don't use the fuck off slang here because believe me, I'm used to it.
Anymore at home like you?
"Uhh not really, no."
Hahahaha!! Brilliant!!
I still love that!
You know, a lot of people interpreted the "Anymore like you at home?" line as referring to Krypton, but I interpreted it as referring to Smallville, which would also work since there's no one like him there either. So it's got a double meaning, which is pretty cool.
Also, he's an only child either way.
She certainly meant Smallville, but he might have meant both.
@@jdotoz She could only mean Smallville. She did not know about Krypton at this point.
@@gregorymoore2877 That's what "certainly" implies, yes.
@@jdotoz Agreed. I was expanding on your point.
He was geeky yet charming and handsome. There was something about him I found so damn attractive and those glasses. I'm a sucker for a man in those glasses. He and tom welling were so beautiful when they wore those glasses. But Christopher as superman was something else. He was born to play him. Best Superman of all time.
The guy that played jimmy Olsen is also Marty’s brother in Back to the Future
Marc McClure
He also played a Kryptonian named Dax-Ur in Smallville.
The "why would anyone want to make a total stranger look like a fool" line is so subtle but so powerful:
It illustrates the evolution of the character of Clark, that he has absorbed his father's teachings and is able to cite them. The transformation scene was pushed by dialouge, but a movie excells when it can illustrate a character's thought process quickly and efficiently.
Still the best version of Clark Kent : the real character of a Superman.
He was a beautiful man
Clark To Lois :
Remember When You Saw A Guy Running Faster Than The Train when you were a little girl?
I'm that guy.
😂... Though the reference is lost on those who have only seen the theatrical version
@@yasseryasser1842 yeah 😂
"Any more at home like you?" What a great dual punchy line that is...
I can't believe it took me this long to see the innuendo in this scene. I mean, Lois literally beats his... bottle... and causes it to go off and spray his pants. And the way he's holding it. Jeez! :D
Then look how she jumped back like she suddenly realized he feels unlike a normal human being after rubbing him down for a few seconds.
RIP Margot Kidder 17-10-1948 - 13-05-2018 :'(
Margot Kidder remains the best Lois Lane. A real, well-developed portrayal with great empathy. She always spoke of her fondness of the character and said she enjoyed playing her.
we need people like jimmy oslen, who try to help newbies.
Omg Christopher Reeve was so dorky cute as Clark Kent! ❤
"Any more at home like you?"
"Uh,... Not really. No."
This movie and the performances therein is a damned work of art.
Somewhere out there, Superman and Lois Lane are flying together again.
R.I.P. Margot Kidder
If said it before and imma say it again. Christopher Reeve did not play Superman. He was Superman.
R.I.P. both of them.
This is amazing. I mean, i would love spending time with this Clark Kent. Even if he wasn't Superman. He is just an awesome person.
Such a great performance there. But Christophers life story is just so damn sad(
The directing… the script… the performances… the cinematography. All perfect! Add John Williams' iconic music and you've got a classic :)
They could not have cast this film any better. ❤❤❤
RIP Margot Kidder.The Greatest Lois ever!
the polarity of the two is whats great and i love the most u get clark kent the character and superman the real person great acting by reeves
It's the other way around, Superman is the mask.

I didn't know until I saw your post. So sad.
I hope you realize that you're using the crying laughing emoji...
Christopher Reeves is gone, and so is she-------OLD TIMES I SURE AS ALL CRAP WISH I COULD GO BACK!!!
This movie kind of campy style is hard to pull off. But with great acting perfect timing and just a so charming Cristopher Reeve this became one of the best super hero movies of all time.
2:33 I’ve had this happen to me before, way more awkward than it is in this scene lol.
what i truly loved about that was the comedic timing..could have come right from a sitcom but was done so well!!!
This movie was a HUGE part of my childhood back in the 70s & I am so glad my folks took me to see this when I was 5yo. It crushes me how Christopher Reeve & Margot Kidder past away.
I love how Christopher plays Clark just as much as Superman. He is Superman the whole time. If his size doesn't give it away, his strength and indestructible body will. So he plays Clark like a big, awkward nerd and yet, all he's trying to do is be careful. This was truly the best performance in comic book movies... until Hugh Jackman's Wolverine and Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man.
The Reeves Superman was more believable than today’s cgi crap which focuses too much on high budget money making compared to heart and story.
@Zesanactor Over-5 You're obviously watching the wrong films my friend, Hollywood today is more about the CGI and visual effects, over the heart and story sadly... On rare occasions like Avengers Infinity and Endgame... audiences today are focused more on the action than the story and heart. Sad times we live in but that's the reality of Hollywood and that's what makes money.
Henry Cavill's whilst his Superman has the potential to be a good Superman, Zack Synder's Man of Steel lacked in Superman what the film was originally meant to be about... HOPE. Kevin Costner's Jonathan Kent was the type of father that would put his son down on every turn.... Lacked inspiration....
Believability doesn't come into it when you're making a comic book movie, e.g like Superman or Avengers... it's about Suspension of disbelief.. of course you can make elements real, but the comic book factor is always there.
The reason Christopher Reeve Superman was and is still greatly loved by fans, isn't just because he had the look to play the character. He played it with heart, HOPE and humanity. Storytelling and the relationship between the characters was as vastly as important as the visuals.
Audiences today have far shorter attention spans with big budget effects films, where Hollywood has become more focused on fast pacing action scenes,. Many actors are even replaced on screen nearly completely with CGI.. There is great CGI, but because of the fast pacing industry, there is sadly a lot of poor CGI as well e.g Justice League....
However you're wrong, e.g films like Avatar made it's money because of it's great leaps in new 3D technology at the time, story wise it was ok, but it made it's money based on it's visuals.
Smaller Hollywood films have and do make profits, but they don't make the money that big budget Superhero films which rely heavily on visual effects which is what sells over story in most cases.
@GodZpeed X7 hell to the no, reeve is the literal film definition of superman so far, cavil doesnt even come close
That's basically all reboots in a nutshell
@GodZpeed X7 Wrong.
@GodZpeed X7 Wrong again.
15 people called him sugar
Perry: Make mine black and no sugar
Jimmy: Sure Chief
Perry: And don't call me "Sugar" 😒
😂 That part cracks me up all the time
Do we yet fully understand why Clark Kent asks "Why would anyone want to make a total stranger look like a fool?"
When I was a kid, I didn't understand either but what I soon realized is that Clark is using an innuendo to masterfully suggest "Why WOULD anyone want to make a total stranger look like a fool?" It's an indirect character judgement hidden behind an innocuous comment. A perfect way for Superman to make people judge THEMSELVES 😉
He's making Lois think he's giving her the benefit of the doubt, but he's really putting her in her place.
@@vivianpowell1732 really a genius way to go about it, if you ask me.
Aww cut it RIGHT before he gets sandwiched in the door lol
3:03 god i love this man.
Love the dymanic between the two. One of the parts where DCEU fell flat.
As great as Christopher Reeve was as Superman and he was amazing, i have to say he was even better as Clark Kent, the awkward posture and shyness with the whole goofy behaviour and nerdy voice is top notch, he really makes you believe that the two of them are not the same guy and that they're two separate people. Very few guys in my opinion have been able to master that except maybe Brandon Routh as he is quite possibly the closest to nailing both personas but Christopher Reeve is and always will be the undisputed man.
Love that beat at 2:50, where Clark just becomes another face in the crowd. It almost feels like this is what he wants most out of life, is to be one among many
I love this movie. Is Great and perfect. The only one Superman Christophe Reeve forever.
2:33 looks like Mr. Clark Kent copped a feel on Lois.
Really loved the naïveté from old Superman. He was human, but still felt like an alien no matter where he went. It makes the character more interesting and likable.
When Clark Kent along with Lois Lane, Clark became awkward. When Lois Lane along with Superman, Lois became awkward.
Actual good Superman-specific jokes in this scene, throughout.
The writers knew enough to be able to have fun with this.
Christopher Reeve was damn good.
if only Christopher Reeve could play Superman in these years I think it would be awesome.
Regarding the Superman "franchise" (a Hollywood term meaning "We will keep making crappy reboots of this film until the end of time because Ferraris are expensive"), it *never* got any better than Christopher Reeve.
God bless that man.
Yes, Christopher Reeves not only looked the part(s), but actually played both with real elan and wit - very much echoing Cary Grant in his "Bringing Up Baby" persona, as Clark. No Superman since has managed that so well, and Henry Cavill? Huh. Just a tall, dark and gruesome clothes horse - very much, as another has said here, simply a swimsuit/underwear model with no charisma or acting chops at all. He can pull a face but that's about it. You don't get a sense of him living a part from within. And he's far too smugly pleased with himself ("Look at me, I'm SO good-looking...").
And Margot Kidder? Just fabulous: an engaging, intelligent wit shining through. As a TV trailer-maker, years ago, my trails for "Superman" were very much built around the Reeves/Kidder scenes, because they were so good.... and, yes, kudos must go to casting, scripting, directing, and, of course, to the performance of these two - who were both so perfect, and unbeatable, in these roles. Christopher Reeves' life-changing accident was a terrible thing... and I'm so sorry we've now lost the wonderful, unforgettable Margot Kidder....
Great post 😊
I agree with everything you said apart from Henry Cavill's quality. He is a fine actor and more than "just" a model. I found him good in Man of Steel (haven't seen the S vs B). I don't like him more than Christopher Reeve, but he is good. Comparing the older Superman movies with the more recent ones is not so much an issue of the main actor, but society as a whole and the way movies are made which have changed over the years.
Now excuse me, I need to order bluray versions of these movies.
@@Trusteft Henry Cavill has been saddled with the fact that every DC movie he's been involved in has been a complete mess. In fact, I liked the casting for Man of Steel. I thought Laurence Fishburne was great as Perry White, I enjoyed Russell Crowe as Jor-El, Amy Adams was okay but inoffensive, and Michael Shannon was entertaining as Zod. It's just a shame that the overall tone and script is completely not suited for Superman. I would love to see a Cavill led Superman movie with competent people at the helm.
They're playing different interpretations of the characters, they aren't meant to be compared. Heck they exist in totally different Earths in the DC Multiverse.
Nailed it 😉
Did Lois think he was a bookie to start with, as in a gambler, and then made the sarcastic remark about sending half his paycheque to his mother because she thought that would be his hidden excuse, but only to find out that it was exactly what he was doing?
Yes
You never know; there may have been guys like that working there long before Clark was hired.
Watch at 2:32 in 0.25x speed and you will see where clark puts his hand.
Faster than a speeding bullet:::wink:::wink:::LOL

"I didn't think so."
First time at age 9 I saw this, i said to myself , wow they all look perfectly cast! The pinnacle of all comic movies!
Idem !
70s kids (and their parents) were treated to pure cinematic gold.
I've watched this scene so many times and it finally hit me why Clark is such a fast typist. Because he's Superman, of course!
Jimmy was great character... in fact all of them great. Only one Superman and one Lois Lane.
Clark allows his real personality to come out for just a moment with the snappy: ''actually she's silver haired''. He plays the nervous, extremely polite, bumbling guy as a necessary cover but he cannot just help himself at giving a little spark and wit back at her and he doesn't even get mad at himself for slipping. He's pleased with himself for a few seconds as she turns back to him as she re-evaluates her initial impression of him before the alter ego of Clark's meekness comes back on as he thanks Perry White. But Lois liked the quick answer back at her. She had turned away from him ready to dismiss him as she played a little joke at his expense over his mother but after his snappy comeback she turns back and shows a little bit of interest in him. I don't think she even realises it but even then at the very start, she is interested in an assertive & quick witted Clark Kent which he allowed to come out for just a moment.
Greatest superhero move of all time. And CR (rip) IS Superman AND Clark Kent. No more needs to be said
"Why am I paying you $40 a week when I should have you arrested for loitering?!?" Ha ha ha ha
Christopher reeves is such a GREAT actor
"... but he is, in my forty years in the business, the fastest typist I have ever seen!" Great dialog in this one.
Perry White: "Why am I paying you $40 a week, when I should have you arrested for loitering?!"
J.Jonah Jameson quietly writes down that joke for future use...
The chemistry between Christopher and Margot Kidder is magical.
