Making Of...Superman The Movie (1978) 

I still get chills from these sequences. When Chris looks left and right and then smiles .. all is right in the world. Magic. Donner did it.

RIP Christopher Reeves you will always be Superman

One of the greatest movies of all time

The scene where Lane dies in the car and he screams flying to the sky. That was epic.

All honesty even to this day you will not remember that Marlon Brando was in this Movie Reeves stole the show and MADE THIS MOVIE WHAT IT IS TILL THIS DAY

I want to go back and relive the moment I first saw Superman. Seeing this man as Superman was what my childhood brain always thought it would be. Christopher Reeve as Superman, will always be sketched into my childhood memories. He played Superman so well, not once did my brain consider him or his simple disguise to not be Superman. Even to this day. Rip Christopher Reeve. Thank you for being the Superman we will always remember.

The score is legendary!

The signature smile sign-off in low earth orbit as Supes by Reeve is unbeatable.

The special effects were better in this masterpiece 45 years ago than most of the crap out nowadays. Remarkable.

Everything worked and came together so well, the acting, the effects, the sets, the music and of course Christopher Reeve

The Reeve take-offs and landings are unmatched.

Timeless classic ❤

This will always be a real life story of Superman in my mind! Not a movie. When I watch Christopher Reeve play this character it’s such a childhood memory. It can’t be beat! He is Superman!

its sad that both christopher and margo are now no longer w/ us

Awesome….without Christopher Reeve, Superman wouldn’t have been Superman, he made the whole movie a success….and yes, I believed he/Superman could fly..😘🥰… and the special effects were amazing, beautiful within the art work. For me this version and film of Superman will always be my favorite, especially with Chris Reeve as Superman, Chris portrayed the character outstandingly and with the emotional caring only Superman could have done. Chris was Superman in the film and a great Superman in real life, especially after his accident. He never gave up hope and never lost his love for life. His courage, determination and caring about others was his greatest strength. RIP Chris, may your courage and strength inspire others. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

An amazing group of talented people solving problems on the fly (no pun) Creating ingenuous effects and techniques that are still used today that made us all believe that Superman was real. Legendary skills. Most of the crew thought the movie would be a massive flop when it was released. How wrong they were. Legendary movie 👌

Finely worked out with a deep dedication, showed like a realistic. Wonderfully handled with care. My favourite film. Christopher Reeves was such a lovely looking hero. Missing him much

One of my all time faves. This was released a year after I was born. How the World was back then compared to now.

awesome cut. Very Well done

Superman!!!!!!

Bravo! It's terriffic

I was born in ‘78 and I remember with the sequel, I would tie my “blankee” around my neck and pretend to fly. Christopher Reeve really gave me butterflies.

I dont know how 'superman legacy' can even come close to this masterpiece.. my favourite film as a child and im now 45 and still my favourite film .. as a little english boy i thought superman lived in new york (to me the city is metropolis lol) .. i still remember shreddies having a superman badge offer and became my fave cereal .. until i spotted a box of cheerios on the table when clark left home 😂

it was like star wars 👍👍👍

R.I.P Christopher...Unforget ❤

Very impressiv how they manage to make this movie. Some scenes u can easy see its fake, but some scenes its looks like superman flies. My favorite sequense is when he have interwiev with lane and take her for a ride. It looks so real and fantastic...

I saw this when I was a little boy and when I saw this with my own kids sent a shiver down my spine when the music starts

Tenho 46 Anos Esss Filme Mudou A Minha Infância. É Para Aplaudir De Pé !! Nota 11 !! Elenco !! Equipe !! Efeitos Visuais ! Tudo Nota 11 !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Eterno Cristopher Reeve !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 O SUPERMAN ✨ Superman Meu Super Herói Favorito !!

The best Superman movie and the best Superman. They keep trying but don’t come close. The Brandon Routh film came close.

With the equipment and technology in the year it was made, the Superman film has succeeded in tricking us into believing that Superman exists in the real world. Thank you geniuses and Mr Christopher Reeve

He really can fly now he’s a bauitfull angel 🕊️

It's sad to think that both Margo Kidder and Christopher Reeve are long gone. Imagine if they were still alive, you could possibly make some sort of follow up.

. I love the whole "...my only son." Superman as Jesus metaphor. I also think the first Lois Lane helicopter rescue is one of the best, if not the best "introductions" to Superman ever. I had the pleasure of seeing this movie in 70 mm at the Manns (as it was called in the 70's) Chinese Theater in Hollwood

Christopher Reeve appears at 28:15 once his interview comes I got emotional real quick cause he was that good of Superman Actor

BRAVO - Good Job. Excellent Edit.

Superb documentary and I also think what they said is correct Christopher Reeve is Superman. It’s not that his Superman is outstanding, it’s good, what really sells it for me is that his Clark Kent is absolutely on point. There are both obvious differences such as confidence, assertiveness etc but the little differences such as body language and social awkwardness of Clark Kent are easy to miss or interpret as “goofy”. The scene in the first movie where he’s all set to tell Lois that he is Superman portray this exactly, the one moment where we get the two characters together with the transformations from Clark to Superman and back again.

There Will never be a better Superman then christoper reeve never

Never seen the big deal in Marlon Brando

No!! It was March 28th 1977 Was the first day of filming

If its been restored to its original but addition scenes were added than its not original

I heard Brando got 11 percent of the sales. ridiculous

The grandad of them all

We need a hero again in America in 2024... Can it get much worse😢

Gene Hackman spot on Lex Luther

One of the biggest crimes in Hollywood has to be the sacking of Richard Donner during Superman 2

22:01-22:26 phantom zone is meant to take general zod and his companions to the prison dimension.

His name is “ledendary?”

Superman is clearly the message that God sent he’s only son Jesus Christ to save the world!!

en eso años era un super tegnologia en el año 1977 pero la pelicula que iso henry cavil con los efectos de cristofer nolan quedo muy origuinal casi a la par de la realidad ... puro efecto de computador ....

Like a Cov supporter being brought up as a Vile fan. SOTV

I despised Brando for his absolute arrogance and over inflated opinion of himself. The lump was too lazy to bother learning lines. Instead, reading from cards held by on set flunkies. Today, I find his performance in the Godfather cringing and laughable. In my opinion, Pacino outshines Brando in that movie, just as Reeve and Hackman, outshine him in this movie. The moment Brando turns up, in the otherwise brilliant Apocalypse Now, I switch it off. Before his boring drawl puts me to sleep. I'll probably get flack for this statement, but I don’t give a 💩

I was 9 when it came out and as much as I loved the movie, as a little black boy the only black character in the movie was a slick talking pimp offended me. Imagine if Asian, Indian or Jewish was represented as a stereotype.
