Superman 2 - Superman comes back to kick ass 

The Erikin84 I see what you did there..

I missed what he did there until you mentioned there was something he did there. Then I also saw what he did there. 💪

"Garbage eating garbage" That technically counts as Cannibalism!

He is unintentionally calling there food garbage...

Is garbage eating garbage some sort of recycling?

That spin, or shive, could have easily killed the guy.

@@deborahthompson849 Technically the hits given to Clark by Rocky should not have made him bleed so much. And smashing Rockys head like this could have caused brain damage. The two battles are measured with two scales. First it appears to be horrific as clark suffers damage. Lois shouts at rocky. All are shocked like a greys anatomy scene. Yet in the seconsd scene where Rocky gets hits who could cause damage, it is played in a goofy or funny way. Like Bud spencer movies. And do not forget Clark started the confrontation because of a sitting issue. Maybe Rocky is a macho and had taken his seat but Clark was no idol model in that scene either. THey could have gone simply to another table. So it appears bully vs Bully. Rocky could not know if CLark was a dangerous, violent person the first time, wanting to start a battle outside because of a chair. So he had some reason to defend himself.

@@danielschoch4881 You've missed the point entirely. The reason why there was a battle over a chair to begin with was because when Clark was at the diner with Lois the first time around Rocky came and sat himself down beside Lois when Clark went into the rest room, even though he jolly well knew that Clark was with her. He asks Lois if he can buy her something to eat, simply to get under Clark's skin. When Clark came out of the rest room and saw Rocky with Lois he says to him that the seat next to Lois is already taken. Rocky responds by saying that your seat's in there, four-eyes (in reference to the rest room). When Clark responds by saying that someone ought to teach Rocky some manners, that's when the ensuing battle begins. Clark was simply standing up for his woman. Rocky was the antagonist. Clark came back to the diner in this scene to give Rocky a taste of his own medicine, not necessarily to extract revenge. He achieves that by giving Rocky a very bruised ego. And maybe a sore head and hand to boot.

@@darrenmiles-morland8038 Whatever. Would you defend Clark if it would be another person in another movie doing this? Or are you simply defending him because he is superman. Do not miss a thing. rocky is a bully sure. But going to another table would have solved the problem, so starting the battle or trying to beat rocky on his own field was not really standing for his woman in a good way.

True very true I have always loved Christopher Reeve

I felt emotional when he appeared in Smallville. It must have meant such a lot to Tom Welling, as it was seen as a passing of the torch.

YOU DAMN RIGHT

Amen!

FOREVER AND ALWAYS, 🐐

Aaron Fenton 😂

Unless it Hulk sitting there. Then it's sm saying I got a to go order.

Unless it’s Godzilla from 2019 then they both will piss thier panties lol joking 🤣👍😎

Ain't that the truth...

I love this scene too since as I was a kid. I always wonder where is this burger joint? It look like the restaurant in the middle nowhere and it also shape like a bus.

And Adam West will be the real Batman.

He was an actor.

@@williamhaynes4800 that show was super cheesy, and I loved every single cheesy episode...lol.

@@bubbaho-tep3468 Definitely. I watched the entire series on DVD with my 12 year old girl. The 1st thing she said was "That's not the real Batman!". She changed her mind after the Zsa Zsa Gabor《Minerva》episode. Thank the Lord it was released before AW passed. R.I.P. Adam West, Long live Batman.

@@williamhaynes4800 Liberace was Adam West's fave guest star.

Yep, it was definitely the golden age of cinema for Gen X. None of the remakes/reboots/sequels could ever come close to those films. They had soul.

Gimme another plate of this garbage. Told my mom that once. Still can't see color out of my left eye.

In the theater for this scene, the audience shouted out, "Oh shit," clapping 😅

Henry Cavil is the only one that comes close, they both look like they were made in a lab with the sole purpose to play the role of Superman

@GNMbg I like Henry too his Clark Kent isn't clumsy. He has more of a serious approach to the role. I don't think he and Reeve look alike. As a child, I loved Reeve as Superman. He had a certain charm with his character. The music helps too

*Reeve

unfortunately he wasn't a good person and he was sent to the phantom zone.

Ricky Bond when You drive to your gf’s house to take her to the movies.

He ain't dead yet..

Javed Khan Yeah.. same here ❤️

He's still the most goofiest Clark Kent, and that makes his transition into Superman more impressive than any other Supie actors managed to display, who appear more like "Superman in a leisure outfit changing into his duty suit" when they switch.

Paul Whitaker, true sir

You Preach the truth. I wholeheartedly agree

The most superman face ever.

0:55 ahahaha :D I don’t care this always brightens my day - go Reeve!!

@clarkkent8286 how does clark have soo much,money?his job barely pays anything

He doesn't pay rent (Fortress of Solitude) and probably not taxes, either (he lives somewhere North of Canada and probably does not have an address). He can fly so he does not need to pay for gasoline or automobile insurance. He doesn't feel heat or cold so he has no need for heating or air conditioning. Think about how many years he had to stick money away.@@paulsmith9192

​@@paulsmith9192Did you forget that Clark can make Daimonds out of his power.

When I was a small child I had difficulty visualizing them as the same person and I asked my father if it was 2 different actors and he assured me that it was the same actor. No other actor has ever done the clumsy bumbling socially awkward NERD Clark Kent like Chris Reeve. Clark Kent should be a NERD and he is NOT a nerd with the other actors.

Yeah John Williams is pretty much the Godfather of movie music

Yup. Spot on

This music reminds me of my childhood, a simpler time

Take away the arbitrary and perceived need for “dark and gritty” and the fixation on over-the-top action and fight scenes... and that feeling you’re describing is, at his core, what Superman is all about. That what Superman is SUPPOSED to be about. People always complain “Oh Superman is too perfect! He’s too powerful! He’s too good!” The point isn’t that he’s powerful or perfect. The point is that good always has a chance. That things can turn out right. That’s what “Hope” means. That just maybe everything will be alright.

@@masonpines6349 yes, this type of feeling is missing in today's movie

To me it's a short but legendary moment in cinema history.

Did you believe in Santa Claus too?

@@darylfoster7944oh dear someone has to ruin things for no reason

Agreed and he saved more lifes out screen than in it

Nah, he's teaching angels how to earn their capes.

Yup, mister, reeves just got his wings and became an angel.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

It's true. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-niiNPH64Xv4.html

He had to learn to fly AND hold his breath for minutes on end. A true legend.

@@Alaska-Jack this is no laughing matter.

Dang what a trip lmao

effects were shit though

Cavill is doing a really good job representing the character but nobody will ever be Reeves.

@@bewmdogg - actually they were very good.

@@thegame346 yea man absolutely

Ngl, I will always absolutely love Reeves, his version of Superman is absolutely incredible, but for me personally, my favourite so far probably has to be Tyler's version, I just love his version, it takes the best parts from Reeves, and Cavil, and seems to mix them into one person, and I just love that. But Reeves will always hold a special place in my heart

Jaws theme: "Hold my beer".

No one like Mr. CHRISTOPHER REEVE....NO ONE

My favorite part

Yup 😂

He just beat Zod and his thugs, superbeings...... so did anyone think Superman was going to lose to the bully down at the diner? lol

The only actor who nailed both Superman and Clark

@@josephinetracy1485 I'm guessing you didn't actually watch the movie. Sorry about that Miss, but you might want to delete your comment, because previously in the movie he chose to lose his powers, and be a normal person, and hence he had his ass kicked. So boom goes the dynamite.

Then he looks at the camera.

Im right here

Haha me too lol 😂

Nor I

Yes. As a kid in the 80s I believed he was too soft to the guy. Henry in MOS handled it how I would do it.

Moral of the story: Don't tug on Superman's cape.

And humanity

I was onley 7 year old when I watch superman 2 on big screen god bless Christopher reeves

Remember that John Williams is the composer of the music of Superman. God bless you Christopher Reeve.

You're so right! He owned it!

Hey, adjusted for inflation it's ~$38 lolz

🤣🤣🤣

And even then, it gets abruptly taken by her.

that's about what the shit costed back then

Haha right!! Even if he payed for it. The time and effort to replace it would be a pain. How are the workers so happy. He couldve easily taught him a lesson without damage.

Uhm...did you not just watch this clip? This is the definition of goofy.

“Wow, that guy must be as strong as Superman.”

So true. I like this scene because it's the flip-side of what we're used to seeing. This is Superman under the guise of Clark Kent, out to set things right in the world.

Yet he lived a lot defying the medical science...

Stem cells 😭

@highlyanticipated death, stop being an asshole. Even after the accident, he was very active and he worked hard to raise awareness about quadriplegic people.

He had no end of days. He lives forever.

Even with his accident, he was, and always will be.... Superman.

Meh....yessssss...I'd have to agree...this is the Clark Kent I grew up with...RIP.....

I couldn’t of said it better

He’s a legend 🇬🇧

Yep

tom welling for me .

Amen

Eyes11 called him out!

If you lived in Rochester New York you'd be able to use that line every day. Because most of the restaurants around this area have what's called garbage plates. Two hamburgers or hot dogs, home fries and mac salad with meat sauce on the burgers or hotdogs. Do a Google search on Nick Tahoes garbage plate Rochester New York.

@@lorenzomaximo1818 All you'd need is garbage to eat it. Wonder if Cuomo is available?

@@robertthomas5906 He should be available. The Rotten bastard

are you willing to recieve a beating? unless you are superman.

@MasterOnion North Yup. Same here. I'll probably never have an opportunity to use the phrase because I live in the wrong area. I learned here on RU-vid and then researched it myself, that in the area centered on Rochester, NY, diners often offer something called a "garbage plate". This is a large amount of food for a low price. It's popular with college students. The plate typically includes fried potatoes, macaroni salad, beans, topped with hot dogs, and slathered with meat sauce or ketchup. It originated in Rochester about 110 years ago. It's not fine dining, it's fuel. So now, Superman's comment makes more sense to me. I always thought he was insulting the diner, but he's not. "Gimme another plate of this garbage" doesn't mean what it sounds like it means. You learn something every day. Lol. Maybe someday I'll be in Rochester and can use the phrase.

Every kid on the globe running around with a towel tied around their neck yelling this theme while “flying”... absolutely right - John Williams made this and so many others, the timeless classics they are.

Goosebumps every time I listen👍🏻

I got tears in my eyes watching this . The nostalgia!!!!

The good old days

Oh yes!!! RIP Christopher!

*Reeve

@@souzabox very good you noticed that. everyone says reeves lol

@@LiveINtheGood53, actually I did too, that's why I've corrected it afterwards. 😊

YES, he's irreplaceable; the reason not much sequels...

@@reyreyes6126 Totally agree.

Otis Pulos until I saw your comment I was literally gonna write that every bullied kid/adult wishes they could do this to their abuser

Thats right, all they gotta do is face their bullies after they get their kryptonian superpowers back and they'll be good to go. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

Except Dont lol

Yeah, once you hit that stage in puberty when you become bullet-proof, can fly, can shoot lasers out of your eyes, outrun a bullet, lift a building over your head with ease among other things that should give you just enough confidence to stand up to your Bully.

Haha this guy is trolling

Those days will return.

To be fair, whatever your opinion of the MCU, they did a damn good job of making Endgame a huge summer mega-event.

Ya an the entire movie wasn’t ruined by the interwebs

exactly and wasnt freaking nitpicked by millennials. was relaxing and enjoyed back then

whah? avengers is my movie event. we get huge groups of people and see the films together. we all get so pumped

And today had he lived and walked again he would be 69

What tragic end, he did his best.........isn't it!!!!!!!

Hes still Superman.

Im alive and well!

He is in the sun waiting to return again….He is superman.

best comment ever. i agree. it's more on opinion because we wanted to be like superman when we were kids. the young ones who grew up with henry cavill are that generation's favorite

I am also here...

@@carbuncle1977 I didn’t grow up with cavil but love him as supes non the less… almost almost as much as reeves. However I’m handicapped waste down. So for that alone I have a certain special allegiance to reeves.

Christopher Reeve looked like he jumped right out of the comics, Gary Frank even draws him like Christopher Reeve

@@idefinitelytapped7396 Is it a spinal cord injury? Chris's foundation might be able to help you with that if it is. The Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation is one of the giants when it comes to SCI research these days.

That's old school porn music.

And Lois Lane with Margot K is awesome, I fell in love with her when I was a kid. ❤️❤️

these Superman movies with Chris Reeves and the music and the writing combination will never be defeated by other Superman movies.

Dave Mustaine Especially in front of everybody that was there the first time. What came around went around and that’s where the buck stops

Yes watching him beat up a bully with his powers like a coward is very satisfying

I love this scene too since as I was a kid. I always wonder where is this burger joint? It look like the restaurant in the middle nowhere and it also shape like a bus.

@@multiplemike5021 How is it any worse than a bully picking on someone smaller & weaker than themselves..? Dude simply got a taste of his own bitter medicine.

@@condorX2 You're basically correct, it's an old fashioned diner, kind of like a pre-made restaurant. They made them years ago, with kitchen and seating pretty much all in place, sort of a mobile home or trailer. Easy to transport wherever you wanted, just hook up to services like power, water and sewer connections. There's one they use on the show NCIS these days. Look up historic diners online for more info.

Yup---his successors, as good as they are, do not capture the contrast in his Superman and Clark Kent personas, nor the twinkle in his eye. I doubt any actor will ever top his performance.

@@TheWillHadcroft exactly. You rarely find that kind of depth and charisma.

Gives you shivers? Ha ha ha really? 😂

@@samcoon6699 aye, just like your mum does

@@TheWillHadcroft Chris had that twinkle in his eyes in real ife as well. One of the nicest guys in Hollywood at that time, I've heard. And he didn't let his accident take that twinkle from his eyes either.

Yeah me 2. And he is first looking around.. Probably to check if everything is alright

Sup is so stong he can break the 4th wall too.

Bit gay

🚨 ⚠️ SPOILER ALERT⚠️ 🚨

@fourierthejunglist Thats a helluva lot of BS you just typed out. When Clark gave up his powers to be with Lois, he didn't become a 90 pound weakling. He still had the same musculature that he had as Superman...just not super-charged by yellow Solar radiation. Simply put, he had as much muscle as Christopher Reeves put on to play the role (and he was in great shape, with some solid muscle.) So Clark didn't get beat down because he was out-muscled. He was at least around the same strength level as the trucker. Clark was beaten because he had no fighting skill. He was beaten because he had no experience about what NOT to do in a fight. He was beaten because he had never really experienced the pain and shock of being violently assaulted. The crutch of his powers had let him bypass all of that life experience. "Fair" was simple. It was the human-strong trucker with his aggression and fight experience against human-strong Clark (who was no weakling) with his lesser aggression and lack of fight experience. He hadn't learned what most men learn growing up: You don't pick fights with someone when you can't back up your words. As far as powered Clark returning to the diner to "settle things"...get even using his Vastly unfair advantage,I thought it was cowardly and ignoble on his part. I guess that's what Zach Snyder homagrd in a similar scene from Man of Steel. What did it prove for Clark to use his powers to beat and humiliate the bullying trucker? What satisfaction could he have gained from that? The only satisfaction that can be gained from a fight is if there's a chance you could lose but you persevere. It would have been a much better scene if Superman had depowered himself (after he and Lois killed the Phantom Zone criminals because...he killed them) due to reasons. He had the police pick up Luthor, had Lois wait at the fortress and went back to the diner as Clark. Then he would call out the trucker, NOT make the mistake of turning his back on him and we'd see the beginning of a fight. The next scene would show Clark returning to the Fortress bruised and bloodied, his glasses broken...but with a satisfied smile on his face that screamed, "You should see the other guy." I would've applauded that because Clark would have gone back to have an actual fair fight against the trucker at his human-equivalent strength and at the risk of his safety...and WON. Then he could limp past Lois to get his powers back again. And she'd say something like, "Men..." The way they did that scene in the movie had no risk. It was like something a bully would do. And yes, I see the irony that I wrote a lot of my own BS too.

@foodeater42 It's hard to realize just how stupid you really are when you think about it....right?

Martin Rowe the guy was a bozo
