My tribute to the 45 years of one, if not, the most celebrated superhero adaptation. For a whole generation, he made people believe a man could fly, and even 45 years later, his influence is still felt on Superman.
The LAST TRUE SUPERMAN & CLARK KENT. JUST PERFECT. THAT GUY- CHRISTOPHER , INTELLIGENT AWESOME ACTOR, LOOKEDAND FELT THE PART THE SCRIPTLOVE HUMOUR EXCITEMENT !!!!!! AND THE MUSIC ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@Alucard12456 10 actors, and soon 11 have played Superman in live action. Reeve is great, but let's not pretend the others, be it before or after him don't exist
@@GiovanniAlckmimRusso and? 200 could have played superman I don’t care, I only judge what I see. And Reeves is the only one who can separate superman from Clark. They others are superman with glasses. End of the debate.
FUCK, someone CLONE this guy and bring him back ! No matter how many actors play the role, CHrishopher Reeve WAS Superman.Everything in him screams it.
@@GiovanniAlckmimRusso I loved it, then I hated it. lol 2 reasons : 1- HORRIBLE Cgi, terrible, trash. It was cool to see him , but... it was very strange at the same time. 2- They gave NICHOLAS CAGE an action scene (very short, yes, but still...), while Christopher was there, just standing..... come on ! I wanted to see HIM kicking some ass.lol If the CGI was PERFECT (HE deserves it, and "we" can do it) and he was DOING something, I would have cried even more, lolololol. Maybe in the future. :)
@@RoChede not the whole CGI was poorly done. I mean yeah, when he comes closer to the camera it's clear it's a CGI model with a deep fake of Reeve's face, but when the camera turns around to show their world falling apart and when we get a closeup of his, then it's great. But I agree it needed to be finished, still it was amazing to see both him and Helen Slater. 2 - come on, Christopher Reeve had four movies while Nicolas Cage wasn't able to have his own movie. And that scene was fantastic
“And over the last few years we have heard a lot about something called ‘family values’. And like many of you, I have struggled to figure out what that means. And since my accident, I've found a definition that seems to make sense. I think it means that we're all family. And that we all have value.” - Christopher Reeve, speaking at the Democratic National Convention in 1996. What a Super Man.
There will never be another.. Christopher was and will always be Superman. Others may try, but there will never be anyone as big as him to fill his shoes and wear the cape. Long live and love and miss Christopher. Our true and iconic “Man Of Steel”. 🙌🏻
He certainly is one of the best to have played Superman, but from the other 9 actors who played Superman in live action there are those who did just great as Reeve did. Like George Reeves, for example, who came before Reeve.
Brings tears to my eyes...... Our superman..... the most beautiful and stylish Superman..... He was, he is, and he will be the only true Superman..... Irreplaceable.... MISS YOU ALWAYS REEVE..... RIP
A great tribute to Christopher Reeve, the one who made us believe that a man could fly. Christopher Reeve truly was Superman, and still is even after his passing. Rest in peace Christopher Reeve, for your legacy as Superman will never die. Christopher Reeve is arguably the best Superman of all time.
He was Superman onscreen as well as in real life. His courage as he faced everything that life threw at him should inspire us just as much as his superheroics onscreen did.
@@ramonewilliams1115 George Reeves did an astounding job playing Superman, so does Tyler Hoechlin. Acting wise, Brandon Routh and Henry Cavill almost come closer. They have the acting chops, but were screwed by the script and their respective directors. Gerard Christopher and Dean Cain also did a good job, although their acting wasn't that great sometimes, but still they played Superman pretty well in their respective shows.
@@GiovanniAlckmimRusso Yeah, but Christopher Reeve had "IT". Dean Cain was good in Louis &Clark and Henry Cavill was probably the closest thing to playing Superman. I still love Christopher Reeve, to me he was the best in my personal opinion.
With all due respect to all the actors who played Superman, Christopher Reeve is undoubtedly the most charismatic, he knew how to represent the hero and characterize Clark Kent, a simple, clumsy man with a huge heart.
Well, one of the most? Yes. The most? No. George Reeves, Gerard Christopher, Dean Cain and Tyler Hoechlin were all as charismatic as Reeve. When it comes in playing Clark Kent, George Reeves portrayed Clark as great and kind guy who would get tough with his enemies if the situation required, and that was very influential to the mythology of Superman. John Byrne used Reeves' Clark to make his Clark Kent, even though during the Bronze Age comics Clark was already being written as more serious than clumsy. Reeves portrayal of Clark would also be used by Gerard Christopher as he told a lot of times how he was a fanboy of Reeves' Superman. While Dean Cain's Clark was based in Byrne's Clark which in turn was also bases on Reeves' Clark, Cain played Clark as a very likable and relatable dude, as someone you could meet in the street that just happens to be a super powered alien. With Hoechlin, he maintains that clumsy aspect of the character and his Clark is a natural dork, but he also acts more serious when the situation calls for it, like when he faced the father of Jon's girlfriend who had threatened both him and Lois.
sin duda alguna el mejor superman ke la historia pueda haber conocido por siempre inmortalzado para siempre como el homre de acero exelente tributo a christopher reeves en todo sentido viviras por siempre
This character invokes the best in us, that's why Superman endures. Thank you Christopher Reeves for caring enough to bring him to life and helping us believe that.
This was the first Superman I saw and Reeves is the reason why Superman is my favorite hero and always will be. No one has been a better Superman. Cavil is very close but Christopher Reeves will always be the best.
After all this time, I am very fortunate to still feel the chills with that Superman tune. Even if others, like Nolan’s Batman tunes have been great, and even the Avengers tune is fantastic, nothing will ever come close to this and the sensation that this was TRULY special.
Remembering first time watching Superman as a kid, it blew my mind when he took first flight in the Fortress of Solitude. I read this was also the reason why Superman was so successful because Richard Donner was able to present to the audience that a man, a Superman, could fly.
I love this version of Superman. I had the biggest crush on Christopher Reeve as a teen. This was a nice tribute. Makes we want to spend the weekend binge watching all the movies again.
The one and only. If you’re smart, you’ll immediately know this in your heart. Also, you’ll know they can’t make a charming and magical movie like this anymore.
Well, 10 actors have played Superman in live action and the number is about to become 11. Christopher Reeve was certainly one of the best actors to have played Superman, but not the greatest, especially when others played the role as well as he did.
I remember seeing this film when I was 10 in 1978. Absolutely in awe of it!! Christopher reeve will always be the man of Steel. He jade us believe a man could fly,lift cars and bounce bullets off him. Keep flying wherever you are!!
Thank you for putting together this great video. In the beginning i found myself smilling because I've been meaning to rewatch these films and haven't in so long. Then I found myself tearing up, It doesn't matter how many people are trying to make a new Superman movie. They just can't capture the magic in the ones that Christopher Reeve did. I mean, the entire cast of each film worked so hard to make these the best superman movies ever. 2-4 flopped but to us kids who didnt care about the box office, Christopher was the personification of superman. He did the job with a smile and charm.
Desde que le puse reproducir a este video, sabía que terminaría con esa escena donde Superman rompía la 4a pared para mostrarnos su sonrisa de confianza, esa sonrisa que me decía que todo iba a estar bien. Genial Christopher Reeves, el legendario Superman de todos los tiempos
I remember watching this at home when I was 2 I loved it so much my mom got me a Superman suit for Halloween. I looked nothing like Superman, extreme long curly blonde hair, but I didn’t care I curled my fists through up my arms like Christopher Reeves in the movie then my parents took a picture. I have no idea where that photo went.
I love that theme song, and when I read the Superman comic during dc comics reign of the supermen, and he came back and fought the imposter cyborg version of himself I heard this theme song in my head🙂, RIP Christopher Reeve too🙍🏻♂️😞🪦⚰️.
Christopher Reeve will forever be Superman to a whole generation of fans. That's why artist Gary Frank used his likeness for the Secret Origin comic in 2010
It was magic when you first witnessed this decades ago...yet can still bring that very same magic which captivated you in his performant even 40 years later.
I still remember, so distinctly, watching the movie at the Loew's East 86th Street theater in Manhattan, and the audience bursting into cheers when Chris flies out of the Fortress. THAT was the moment we were all waiting for -- and it still gives me chills 45-plus years later.
I just watched this movie on the big screen for the first with FULL ORCHESTRA playing the score LIVE ♥️♥️. If you get a chance to see Superman In Concert, don’t miss it!! And bring the kids! It was awesooooooome
I would like to say Cavill, but he was screwed by Snyder. But Tyler Hoechlin ever since he got to play the role in Superman and Lois he has been the best live action Superman so far
When I was a Child, Christopher Reeve was one of my Role Model & Actor. Until now, he's still is. Christopher will always be my favorite "Superman." I remember my Mom, bringing me at the Movie Theater. It was my first time, watching Superman: the Movie (1978) Film. I always wanted and Dreamed of being "Superman" back in those days. Until now, as a Grown Man, I still do sometimes. It brought out my inner Child, wishing I could be Flying through the Skies. 🤩🤩🤩👍👍
Same here. My first exposure to Superman was in the late 1990's when I was very small kid, probably 3 or 4 years old. I remember watching on TV some of Christopher Reeve movies, mainly the first and fourth movie, watching Lois and Clark and the animated TV show. And ever since I've enjoyed the character. At first it was because of the powers and the costume and later it was because of identifying myself with the character.
Our number 1 Superman, my number 2 is Routh who's got the same level of respect for Reeve as you and we all do watching this splendid video and who's the only worthy successor of Reeve on the big screen.
Glad you enjoyed the video. In my personal rank, Reeve would be my fourth favorite, with Tyler Hoechlin, Henry Cavill and George Reeves coming higher. And come on, let's not forget about the other guys. Cavill was a worthy successor, just had the bad luck of being in the hands of Snyder and the mismanagement of Warner regarding the DCEU. And there is David Corenswet, even though yeah we still have to see how he'll do, but considering how he views Superman he is worthy as well.
