    Superman would have had an entirely solid film series if Richard Donner stayed on and had his way, without the Salkinds clashing with him. He planned to make 4 movies
  • @loslakers530
    Imagine a Worlds Finest movie with Christopher Reeve and Michael Keaton
  • @MinesAGuinness
    In the best sense, in his character, words and deeds, Christopher Reeve never really stopped playing Superman.
  • @bensneb360
    Anything with Christopher Reeves as Superman, and I’ll watch it, dude was immaculate in the part
  • @rykerblade_snb
    That shot of Reeves’ Superman smiling to the camera always warms my heart
  • @Desertfox201
    Superman 4 not only hurt Christopher Reeve's career it hurt my feelings because of how terrible it was.
  • @Kremmen2001
    Nobody came anywhere close to Reeve's portrayal of Superman. He embodied the part in every way, even offscreen. He was perfect.
  • @ezinger6191
    The comic Superman 78 did this story for the most part and I had no idea that was supposed to be a movie! That’s awesome.
  • @WildBikeCamper
    In an alternate universe, Chris Reeve, Henry Cavill and Brandon Routh starred in Superman: No Way Home
  • @MateusHonrado
    I still lament the fact that we haven't yet gotten a live-action Superman film with Brainiac as the main antagonist.
  • @panthertrain1984
    It’s funny how your tastes change as you mature. I’m 39 but I remember 11 year old me always renting Superman 3 and Superman 4 on VHS the most and always thinking Superman 1 was “the boring one.” Obviously I now realize the original is a masterpiece but 3 and 4 still have that special place in my heart.
  • @Omar-wq9dz
    The script for Superman 4 is online, and it’s actually pretty decent. If it had a bigger budget and better effects, it would have made a decent movie. Not as good as the Richard Donner films, but right under it
  • @RevDrCCoonansr
    I agree that last shot of Reeve as he flies off is the parting shot. RIP.
  • @iansands8607
    After his terrible accident Christopher proved he was a real Superman, R.I.P. Christopher, you were the best.
  • @Kaden10
    Reborn sounds awesome and it would have been a great send off to Christopher Reeve's Superman.
  • @JordanWHuff
    I just have to say. This has become my favorite channel on YouTube. The content the quality and details, I instantly watch anytime I get a notification and it makes me relive these glory days of movie, shining a light on details I never knew. Keep it up!
  • @Baximus23
    I wasn't born in the same time as Reeve's Superman, but I grew up with his movies. He was the one to make me love the hopeful character that he is. And after him, I named my daughter, Kalel; which means Light of Hope, in Kryptonian. So, thank you for my childhood, Christopher Reeve. May you rest in peace. Thank you, Superman.

    The biggest surprise out of this was... the storyline actually sounded pretty good
