[@Syryu]

One thing I noticed is that in a lot of these scenes, Superman does something grand or spectacular to demonstrate his powers. (Bend a steel car bumper,Catch a safe, catch a helicopter, catch a falling plane, walk through fire) but all Cavill!Superman has to do is snap off his handcuffs and everyone gets the hint and backs up. I also love that Lois is always the one to give him the name, Superman.

Honestly… I find it quite impressive seeing it for the first time TODAY! How they gave that illusion of flight is quite GENIUS. No need for wires or close ups… All you see is a seamless transition of a man taking flight.

[@Tenshii_Artii]

Even though I could obviously spot the difference between the transition from animation to live action, I agree! In my opinion, That was such a creative way to make something so awesome visually, but make it easier of course for the production team to handle everything.

[@Eyes-of-Horus]

Yes, I was. I do remember the Superman serials in the movies on Saturdays. I never forgot Kirk Alyn as Superman. Unlike George Reeves, Kirk Alyn was a body builder. That was his real physique. George Reeves, the 1st TV Superman, had a padded suit. Brandon Routh was also a body builder.

[@johnsmolenski6285]

It was the way that Superman and Lois met in the Man of Steel miniseries that John Byrne did in 1986, during the reboot of the DC universe. It doesn’t work quite as well as a return, but is still a great opener.

The scene in which Christopher Reeve's Clark Kent runs across the street, pulling his shirt open and exposing the "S" is so perfect. You know that he is going to do something fabulously heroic soon.

You actually see the end of his run in the Flash TV Series, Crisis on Infinite Earths. Mr. Routh reclaims the mantle of Superman briefly for that story and concludes it. Hint: it doesn't end well.

[@whiplashfatigue1430]

Bryan Singer and every Superman movie director since has gotten it wrong. Superman is not dark or angsty, mopey or angry, and he wouldn’t snap a criminal’s neck. He is about hope and optimism, truth and justice. Towards the end of Justice League, he started acting more like what he’s supposed to be.

Many of these actors showed up on the Arrowverse, sometimes as multiple characters. For example, Durance reprises her role as Lois in Crisis but also played Supergirl’s biological mom (and Clark’s aunt) in the same crossover. And Tom Welling is not just Clark on one of the Earths but also a certain immortal brother killer on Earth-666. And Routh reprises his role as Superman but also plays the Atom. Their meeting is interesting (Lex: “Congratulations, you look like a filthy Kryptonian.”). Meanwhile, Supergirl’s adopted parents are the movie Supergirl and the “Lois & Clark” Superman, while her boyfriend’s mom is the “Lois & Clark” Lois

Every time I see Chris Reeve save Lois for the first time -- so strong, so confident, so noble (and there are other scenes of his that have the same effect), I rewrite history in my mind. Chris and Dana are both still alive and happy together in 2021, Chris is 69 years old (very distinguished looking, still well built, discreetly gray), they watched their son William grow up, and they are enjoying their sunset years taking their grandchildren sailing and snorkeling. If only.

@@mokshnemmaniwar8580 Dana is Dana Reeve, Chris' wife, to whom he was married at the time of his death, and who stood by him through the nine years of his paralysis.They had a son, William, together. Tragically, Dana died of lung cancer only a few years after Chris, still in her 40s, even though she had never smoked nor lived with a smoker. Their son William is now in his late 20s, and by all accounts is a fine man.

[@stevecarter9596]

Don't be sad for Chris and Dana. It's not what happens in life, but how we choose to deal with things that matters. Chris turned his accident into a positive by creating a foundation for stem cell research. He was as much a hero in life as on the big screen. Dana was a hero for standing by him til the end. Sometimes quality of character can trump quantity of life measured in years.

No one will ever top Christopher Reeve and Margot Kidder. The chemistry they had was pure magic.

[@tommissouri4871]

His Clark Kent was the worse. He played Clark like an idiot. Clark was a "mild-mannered reporter" not a bumbling, clumsy bumpkin. Remember, he was a genetically advanced being from another world. He wasn't really just a Kansas farm boy who had never been off the farm. At this time, the Superboy storyline still existed in the comics, so there had been the relationship with Lana, friendship with Pete, struggles of hiding who he was, and working the farm. He wasn't a dummy or social misfit. I think George Reeves set the standard for Clark, acting normal and a bit timid at times when needed, by always letting the audience know with a wink it was an act. He also was a take charge guy, telling Lois to do things frequently and clearly on equal footing with Inspector Henderson. With Christopher Reeve, it seem Clark really was a bumbling social misfit. Routh played Clark that way, but not nearly as bad. Cain played Clark well aware of everything who brought the act up when he needed around those that suspected him. I think he matched Reeves more. Cavill was a very different Superman and story. Hoechlin plays a much more mature version, as he is married and has kids. His Clark lead-in story also has Clark and Superman more mature and less excitable. Surprising since he is 35 and playing what should be an early 40s to mid 40s Clark Kent, which was the age of George Reeves when he was playing what should have been a 30 year old Clark. Chris Reeves can be forgiven some as he was only 26. Cain was 27 and had 11 credits under his belt.

I always thought Dean Cain did a good job. Most forget it was a weekly series, so it didn't have feature movie big studio budget or time. Everything happened in a 45 minute window so it could air each week. And some of the hokeyness with simply '80s hokeyness that was in everything. Airwolf has the silly supersonic speed film motion. The earlier A-Team had the "shoot 10,000 rounds and no one gets hit" stories. And somewhere in this time, the comics changed the storyline again.

It was just parody on top of parody on top of parody (essentially what Superman 3 & 4 would be). He famously responded with, "This is not the Superman I grew up with.." He knew the material deserved to be treated with great respect, and that introduction scene is the result. An incredibly slow build leading to an amazing reveal, all accompanied by John Williams' legendary score! I never get tired watching it..

Cavill is great but I absolutely hate Snyder's interpretation of Superman.

That's why Tyler Hoechlin is so great. In costume he's got the same nobility, presence, optimism, even innocence, in a way, that Reeve and Routh had.
