"I've discovered his weakness. he cares."
this film is known for a number of issues during the production, infact even the introduction explains that. infighting, lawsuits, director changes, please watch the richard donner cut. losing john williams yet still using his iconic music is baffiling. how do you mess up the superman theme song? that's not very super, man.
the fact that lois figures out that clark kent is superman by scribbling on a newspaper over supermans face, the outfit clark is wearing, I love her so much, women in stem! and then she's so confident she jumps out of a window? I aspire to be like you lois lane. and then, when she tricks him with the blank? I love her.
"they've killed superman :("while this film had its flaws its still a superman film starring christopher reeve, who plays an amazing superman as well as clark kent, and margot kidder as lois lane. lois and clark are actually my parents. I love them so much, the way they bicker and fight while clark literally just takes it.
"but you are victim to another fatal weakness. your compassion. the death of others means more to you than your own."I am super because I'm kind 😭😭😭
the cgi is still bad as ever, but I, too, believe that man can fly! If anything, the really bad greenscreen and cgi makes it ever so more endearing.
"you know you're really super."when superman lost his powers and like immediately got absolutely beat up, I've never been more upset in my life. he is genuinely such a sweetheart, and he deserves nothing bad to ever happen to him; his weakness may be kryptonite, but in reality its humanity and people. his kindness gets in the way. the fact that he freed himself of being superman so that he could be with lois, live how he wanted, love, yet in the end, he had to give that up, so that he could save the world. he just wants to be normal.
"I've been uh... working out?"
