Taking flight: the visual effects of Lois and Clark

[@m.taylor]

Dean and Teri were perfect together...and Dean is so handsome.

[@RuanAntunes7]

I’m currently rewatching the show & I must say I love every second of it.

[@Rache28]

You can just about make out the wires when Dean and Terri come in through the window. Must’ve been really uncomfortable in that harness, but they owned it. 👌🏻👌🏻

I'm enjoying re-watching this show! So much fun! I watched all four seasons and started over again, and will probably start over again and again.

[@tomliang]

Thanks for sharing, I was just re-watching the show and wondering how they did the walking on the wall scene in the house. Now I have my answer. Thank you.

[@Scripture-Man]

Thanks for uploading this. I love this show! :-) I like to think I know a lot about special effects, but that little collision at 1:55 took me completely by surprise!

The Flying Harness and The Green Screen, Very Tough Stunt Work

[@danielcorona9696]

I remember good take off and landing from Superboy TV series. Why didn’t they bring that team to Lois and Clark series?

[@reidmason2551]

WB wanted a clean break from the Salkinds. It's one of the reasons they had SUPERBOY canned to make way for LOIS & CLARK, and it's definitely one of the reasons the Salkinds were replaced on what became SUPERMAN RETURNS with Jon Peters and his parade of freak show partners for 13 years of development hell. And if WB wasn't going to work with the Salkinds again, they certainly weren't going to use their FX team, either. Since you brought up SUPERBOY having better takeoffs and landings, that show also had much better Superman costumes as well. Dean Cain's Supersuits were a huge downgrade in quality, which wasn't fair to him at all.

@@reidmason2551 He did justice to em - clothes don't make the man...

[@NDBit]

Dean Cain must've been so fit to do this - like you'd hafto be less than 2% body fat...

[@markcrew3696]

If you notice most of those special effects were done in the first season or two, but as the show started to get older. They said that the special effects were costing a lot of money and they went away from that. I didn't particularly care for that. I really felt like it was a good show at the start. But there were some episodes where Superman didn't even show up in the episode or when he did. It was just a close up of his cape flapping in the wind to give the illusion he was taken off. Shame on the directors producers and people in charge you totally ruined a good show.

[@reidmason2551]

The cape flap-takeoff scenes were the pits. George Reeves' springboard-propelled leaps over the camera in the '50s looked infinitely better, simply because Superman was actually leaving the ground. Why WB didn't just go back to the springboard method -- which had been used in classic films like Errol Flynn's ROBIN HOOD -- to do Superman's takeoffs again still baffles me. LOIS & CLARK made a lot of bizarre creative and technical choices that didn't make sense at the time, much less in retrospect.

[@sansao3640]

a capa do superman e longa e bonita no vento!

[@patriciasanders2942]

Fantasy is a wonderful world reality is not, we the public have no comprehension of what is done In that world that eventually brings us so much entertainment, thank you to the amazing industry responsible for this pleasure.

[@Pinkranger87]

This is so cool

[@zacharyspinks6207]

Amazing!

[@Laila-cr1on]

God

[@vestel777]

Sad part is that Dean’s career was almost destroyed by Him playing Clark Kent/Kal-El/Superman. I think He was typecast after that.

[@marklupo3441]

I agree. Besides the reboot to him hosting ripleys believe it or not. Don’t remember him being in much. Even now I’m like hey Superman

[@vestel777]

I remember Terri Hatcher as Penny Parker on the 80’s TV Series MacGyver. Then as Catherine on the 1989 Movie Tango & Cash.

[@brianb1684]

She was really stunning in these (both MacGyver and Tango and Cash). Still quite a cover gal but boy was she exceedingly hot at her peak..

The Daily Planet

[@alexandreguimaraes1116]

Lois And Clark has bad visual effects, the lead actor is bad and the soundtrack is bad. It's very lacking in self-criticism to make a promotional video about the show. But anyway, Superman on television never had a good adaptation. Smallville was unbearable. It's not about the money, it's about the talent of the producers/directors. For example, is it that difficult to find a good music composer among millions of people to make a decent soundtrack? It's inexplicable, nobody can beat a movie made in the 70's (Donner). People are supposed to learn from experience. I just can't understand.
