​@BodyOpt I always wonder if these people try typing would've and should've and just go with the autofill. My devices autocorrect to it without typing the apostrophe. I don't believe these people were never corrected that it's short for "have" and not "of," they know what they're doing, they just insist on doing things their way and shouldn't be trusted.

Great scenes, belonged in a better movie. The supercomputer set and Ross Webster's Bond-villan office were truly Ken Adam standard, and that's really saying something. Fun fact: Lorelei, Webster's assistant is Pamela Stephenson, from Not The Nine O'Clock News, and married to Billy Connolly. Wouldn't it have been great to see The Big Yin do a cameo?

He saved the movie from being a total disappointment. Reeve's scene with Annette Otoole are the best moments of the film. If they focused on their relationship and axed the computer thing, it would have been a much better movie in my opinion because they're chemistry was so great together.

I dunno, there’s a lot to like about this movie. Reeve is still amazing, the chemical plant sequence, Lana Lang, Webster, the Superman vs. Superman fight, the giant supercomputer set is awesome, RoboVera, the Atari made video game sequence, and even Richard Pryor has a lot of funny moments. The only truly TERRIBLE Superman movie is Part 4.

As a kid, I didn’t question anything about this movie. But as an adult, one starts noticing things, like Margot Kidder barely being in the movie, Richard Pryor practically being the star of the movie, Robert Vaughn just being another Lex Luthor, that whole comedic opening etc. But one also notices other things, like Clark Kent being himself when he’s back in Smallville. Christopher Reeve is such a good actor.

I like that movie now. Didn't for most of my life. But that era of movies isn't coming back and if you liked the first 3, it's nice to get just one more that looks like it's from that era. Ninja Turtles 3 is the first movie that changed my mind about it in this way. What I mean is, these aren't good movies, but they're not boring, and if I had the choice to wipe them from existence I would not. My rating is "I'm glad Superman 4 exists."

7:40 Considering how successful and well-received the Deadpool movies are, I wonder how a stand-alone Rated R Superman film would have been received back in the early 1980's. (I was just a little boy back at that time, so I don't remember how well R rated movies did back then.) While definately being a gamble for it's time, it would have allowed Richard Pryor to go full force in his preformance. Obviously, many parents at the time would have been outspoken about the idea: "This is supposed to be a family movie." To address this, the marketing group would need to be up front with the matter: "The previous two films are designed to be enjoyed by children, families, as well as adults. This isn't a sequel to those films. This new film is a stand-alone adventure that is meant for the grown-up audiances who want to see Superman handle complex matters that would not be possible to portray in a PG-rated movie."

I mean, OK, I can see how much there is to dislike about Superman III but I always loved it. Vera becoming a cyborg haunted me as a kid, and Robert Vaughan does a good job despite what he is presented with. Even Lorelei Ambrosia has some potential, since her ditzy blonde persona is shown to be a cover, albeit only very briefly shown in one scene. But OK, also in the scene were Vera tries to confuse her in the supercomputer and Lorelei simply says "In other words: push this red button." And it has Annette O'Toole as Lana Lang, I mean, c'mon! So, yes, I do like the movie but hearing about the original Salkind plans for Superman 3 and 4 also sounded interesting. I think the El family are Kryptonian nobility so them being a bit distant cousins wouldn't be too weird, all things considered. But yeah, thanks, JoBlo!

Known as one of the first movies to have too much studio interference , during the 70s Directors and the rest of the creative team were left alone to make a film.

I can tell you exactly what happened with Superman 3. The producers didn't treat Superman with any kind of respect. They saw it as silly kids stuff, so once they had gotten rid of Richard Donner (RIP), they saw themselves as able to make the Superman film THEY, not the audience, wanted. And so we got the garbage that they had the gull to call Superman 3, but I and many others just call crap.

The same thing happened with, Lethal Weapon, Joel Silver thought Shane Black hadn't, "paid his dues," and, when everybody was talking about his perfect script, his jealousy reached unhealthy levels, he butchered his script for, Lethal Weapon 2, because it would have, meant, no more sequels, as a result, a perfect duology became, a modern classic, an obscenely overrated sequel, (yeah, I said it, and, I'm standing by it), and, two atrocities, Shane Black had a similar experience with, TLBS, he finally took a break, before a resurgence, while, Joel Silver quickly drifted into irrelevance, he's been exposed as a total hack that lucked into, Lethal Weapon, and, Die Hard, and, truly, that's that.

​@Barbarian646 See above, The, Salkinds, wanted a, yes-man, and, Richard Donner, unquestionably, didn't fit the bill, it's also why James Cameron destroyed the careers of, Michael Biehn, and, Ed Harris, and, why Bill Paxton replaced them, unfortunately, that relationship was, ultimately, cut short.

This was the first “grown up” movie I went to the cinema to see, like, that wasn’t made for little kids. I loved it. Got the VHS tape and even some board game based on it.

You had to have grown up with this movie to really appreciate it. As a kid who saw Richard Pryor in his early movie roles, I loved this movie. This holds a nostalgic place in my heart as far as movies go. If you were watching it for the first time as an adult I get what you’re saying. But growing up with Atari games, comedy movies and the like, this is much more of a kids movie than the originals.

"Superman III" was the first movie I can actually remember watching. And the cyborg scene gave me my very first nightmare. Even today, I still can't watch that part; I have to close my eyes and cover my ears just before it begins. And if you think I'm a...sensitive individual, I can sit through a triple feature of "Salo", "A Serbian Film", and "Cannibal Holocaust" without puking.

Like many who commented about this video, I love this movie when I was a kid. This was the movie that got me started to watch more movies with Richard and his standup comedy shows. Clark vs. Evil Superman junkyard fight scene is still the best!! Superman 3 will always have a place to my heart...no matter what people say negative about this movie
