Mark Pillow (Nuclear Man) is very active when it comes to talking at fan events. He also did a recent one with Superman 2 Villain Sarah Douglas. The movie let them down, but he is a great person and is proud to be part of the superman fandom.

Please watch the DVD one more time, but with the audio commentary by one of the writers Mark Rosenthal. He gives some very interesting inside info about what went down with this film.

Okay in the Superman 2 the Richard Donner cut Superman spin the Earth back then he also goes back to the diner and humiliates the guy that beat him up if Superman had done that how would the guy even remember him or was it a way for Superman slash Clark to teach a jerk a lesson humiliate him rather than beating him up

You're not Superman 4 the quest for Peace should have been called should have been called Superman 4 the quest to kill the franchise

I found your discussion around Bizarro to be very interesting. I tend to agree that the Nuclear Man we got, versus what he was meant to be like, means Bizarro might have been the better character to see in Superman 4. I was wondering, have guys looked into the “Superman and Lois” TV series? I cannot see that you have. It was an impressive show, with some great acting, special effects and they did a good take on Bizarro. Would be interested to get your take on that show.

As a proud representative of the society of advocates of sound effects in space, I think the shutting of the shuttle door took nothing away from an otherwise excellent film!

Only now is that the new Cold War has even less checks and balances and no actual treaties to limit arms so we’re actually much further down a crazy worse than Cuban missile crisis rabbit hole then we were even in the 80s. The best part: the citizens are totally clueless to this

The Subway scenes were shot on the London underground and the exterior scenes of the Daily planet and the United nations,were filmed in Milton Keyns in the UK.

4:00 And then you get food poisoning and start bleeding from your eyes.

I have been waiting for this episode guys and it was worth it. 😂 I wish there were more crazy Super sequels now. Had forgotten Mariel Hemingway was in this.😊

Funny I just watched day at the races and now I'm watching the night at Casablanca

Hooray for Captain Spaulding. Hooray, hooray, hooray.

I had never seen this in the theater back in 87. My younger brother went to see it at he kinda told me about it. I bought the 5 movie DVD set featuring the 4 Reeve movies and Superman Returns. I watched it after watching your breakdown video today. I tried watching it on DVD a couple of years ago. But, the low budget effects were so bad, I turned it off eventurally. It is pretty funny to wince at the cheesy effects and the lack of everything here(plot, writing, budget, effects). Thanks for this comical look back at this crazy thing.

What happened to bald Lex and all those wonderful toupees?

I used AI stuff and remade Superman 4. Nuclear Man is replaced with Bizarro refaced with Christopher Reeve. Here's the link to the full movie. drive.google.com/file/d/1L9CwbqpNFT1jgZrjYAEDqpRnEIslmEpt/view?usp=sharing

All of the Christopher Reeve films were made in England-that's why the kid in the town Zod attacks has an English accent, despite supposedly being the Deep South. And a mistake British people notice in the UN scene is that, instead of "United Kingdom", "England" is written on the name plate(England being one of the four countries that make up the UK).

Someone restored footage of the wall scene with the red and blue streaks reconstructing the wall then using heat vision to fuse or cure it instead of wall vision. It looked a billion times better.

41:58 I always thought that Lois’s memory must have come back to her little by little over time. Why else would she hand a letter to Clark that was addressed to Superman?

Brendan: you'll probably get this comment a lot, but do continue with the Superman and Lois series! Tyler is definitely my 2nd favorite Superman after Chris, because he exhibits so well the HUMANITY of Superman, which is heightened by the family dynamic that we haven't seen before in live-action.

Great reaction the things you do for your channel am I right? Well I hate three and four except for Christopher Reeve. I don’t think of real movies. I try to forget them. I think you should’ve done Supergirl. You’re supposed to be in a part of it and he didn’t do it. I think Supergirl is a much better movie than three and four. I don’t know whether you like it or not but it’s better than three and four not better than one and two but definitely better than three and four thanks for the fun until next time have the new man will be like in the history of universe of the super friends cartoon and not the Justice league movie or battle Superman glad I didn’t like. Hopefully they have a classic member of the Justice league this time if they do it going forward may be much better universe much better DC way to come if they do all right they do all right I’ll bring super friends the cartoon not the cheesy first season but like challenge is super friends and dark side friends until live action version and make those justice league movies now that’ll be worse justice league two the challenge of the super friends versus the Legion doom I would watch that I want to see well there is one exception to the first super friends season they’re gonna bring them back Marvin and the wonder dog let him with crypto play with him. That would be funny for us seeing her too, and then have cyborg and fire storm say sorry Marvin and Wendy this is for real superheroes the winner twins could be used eventually that’s all for now

Darkseid of the moon does NOT mean that it never sees the sun. It just means it is always facing away from earth because the moon is tidally locked to earth. It can definitely see some sun. Having said that, there is no way of defending lV.

A line is cut from the DVD for some reason. When Nuclear Man appears Lenny says to Lex ' but hes a... a boy!'. Too gay? I dunno

Lots of people Don't Remember...BIGGS WAS IN THE BEGINNING OF THE ORIGINAL MOVIE ...IN THE FIRST REELS ... As the theater reels were ReplaceD each week or month (??) he was edited out. (So Anybody who saw it the First Week might remember biggs talking to luke on a hilltop on tatooine)

I'm 41 and ss a kid, I watched Superman 2 and 4 the most, and I feel it was cause there was more fighting, I suspect. Superman 4 special effects didn't even really dawn on me at the time as being bad funny enough. I remember at one point in one of my many re-watches as a kid when Nuclear man takes Lacy to space... It just hit me like a ton of bricks lol...wait shes dead! The movie was never the same after that, and I started to notice more and more that was dumb and wrong with it as I got older. I would watch this movie 10 times before I would watch Superman 3 even once. I absolutely hated the 3rd one outside of him fighting himself as a kid. The 4th one holds a special place in my heart even though it's got a lot of problems, but the story just felt more Superman like, and there were some good intentions with it and even with it being a bad movie Christopher Reeve still made me believe in Superman even if the effects that made him fly looked like hot garbage.

Space 1999 was CoOL but I didn't sEE it AIR in America till AFTER 1977. Lucas and others Hadn't Seen It Either...but heard that the eagle was similar so they changed the millenium falcon very quickly towards the end.

I have vague memories of that John Cryer, “oh nooo” being imitated in school for a few minutes.

Finally!!! I've been waiting weeks for this. Can't wait to listen to this at work next week, the thumbnail was a nice touch, made me chuckle.

I call StarWars The BIG BANG OF CREATIVITY The 80's were AMAZING Because of the SHOCK the world got in 77!!! ... Movies went from 5 sets, maybe 5 spaceships, mayyybe 3 robots, to 50 sets, 200 spaceships, 150 robots! etc.etc.etc.etc.etc.!!! ... Godzilla stomping on trainsets, captain kirk going to planets with styrofoam rocks, silent running with 4 spaceships and 3 robots and baD b movies on teevee...to AMAZEMENT AT A MOVIE 50X BIGGER THAN THE BIGGEST MOVIE ANYBODY HAD EVER SEEN!!!

Brendan, you ate Chipotle right before jumping on the call, didn't you? I'd recognize that description of a disgusting burrito anywhere.

Groucho grew up on vaudeville where mistakes had to be turned into gold. I always thought this was scripted though because Chandler and Spalding are both grifters under assumed names. So it's a mask off moment.

So turrrble. Even the concept is stupid, especially in retrospect.

I've never seen it confirmed anywhere, but I think Cannon's deal was that they had the rights to the characters who appeared in the Superman films, but not any other characters who appeared in the comics. It would have made sense to have Superman battle Bizarro instead of Nuclear Man, because it is canon in the comics that Luthor was connected to Bizarro's creation. It still would not made the movie any better, but I would have enjoyed it a little more.

Here we go guys, been looking forward to this 😁😁👍

Great video! If you're down on Sidney J. Furie, I highly recommend one of his earliest films, The Ipcress File with Michael Caine. It's incredibly tense and visual, and his direction will blow you away. It's sad how poor Superman IV is, but what I find interesting is it does have its heart in the right place which is more than you can say for Superman III, and it flirts with superhero revisionism. The idea of Superman policing the world and learning the error of his ways is a good idea to explore, but the film wastes that potential.

THE WORST THING EVER MADE AGAINST SUPERMAN, NO, NOt THING.., CRIME IS THE RIGHT WORD! THIS WAS A CRIME.

I really enjoyed this video. The analogy of having a burrito made of cardboard and hard beans is perfect and had me howling, thanks boys

Superman 4 is atrocious. Everyone from cast to crew to even the former Cannon owners call it an abomination. Just because today's movies may be worse in some ways doesn't change that. I felt this was the one film where both Hackman and Reeve were going through the motions. ( like what's up with Luthor's hair line? He went from bald to balding ). The Lois and Clark scenes felt forced, no magic between Lois and Supes. Jimmy Olsen was ok in 78, but the " young kid" aspect is long gone now. Jackie Cooper aged 25 yrs over a decade, Kidder's lifestyle started to show on her as she looks mid 40s here. Even the makeup work on Reeve left much to be desired. This was 1987 less than 10 yrs since the 1st movie . The set oiece for the Planet was literally out of a fan film. All the major role players look aged 20-25 yrs. Reeve certainly never stopped being Superman. But it's clear here he didnt want to be doing this. And the story, while topical of the day, and well meaning , was a mistake. Even comic book writers during WW2 knew enough to keep Supes from action in the war. Never mix hard to solve real world issues with characters who could solve those issues overnight. Or at least be creative about it. Even watching this as a 15 yr old it was off. The editing is just horrible, the missing 45 minutes may not of been top notch stuff. But its clear in many areas that chunks had been removed. It had none of the magic of One and Two, ....hell even 3 had good moments. And zero verisimilitude. Yes, I'd rather watch it over Snyder disasters every day. But thats not saying much. I'd rather have no anesthetic root canal than watch a Snyder movie.

Does anyone notice in the Hair hanging from the Weight scene right after Luthor breaks the glass the base of the case under the ball is strategically removed so it drops in to make it seem as if its heavy! Never seen it pointed out in all the breakdowns but once you see it you cant unsee it!!

Even Groucho got a bit confused...lol

Mac McDonald plays one of the prison guards and is actually a very accomplished actor.

I wish they knowing this was the last Superman with Christopher Reeve that it had continue with Lois and Superman relationship from 2 and not have him erase her memory

Superman IV was one of the top 10 grossing films of 1987 in Britain. Presumably only 10 films were released in Britain in 1987.

Still better than Man of Steel, Batman V Superman, and The Justice League...🤦‍♂️😆 Christopher Reeve will forever be the only on screen Superman ❤️💙

What a wit! That is what is attractive.

Fun conversation, the kind I love to have and listen to. I was like 2 years old when this movie came out, and I watched Superman II like a million times before I saw this. I was about 5 or so at the time I did see this, so while I could maybe tell that it was different in some way, I couldn't really tell why. I could probably say to myself, 'this looks different' (poor cinematography/budget) or 'this feels different' (poor writing). Anyway, thanks for the fun!

I watched Superman 4 on VHS went I rented it from the video store. The first time I watched this movie, I thought Nuclear Man was a part of Superman's rogue Gallery. I thought the costume and his music was cool, I even thought there was an action figure out there for that character, just didn't know where to find one. I still watch it as I got older and then started to question things like y'all said about the crystal and am just like, so that means Fortress of Solitude is done or something. And they still do the kissing whip memory thing. I like the action between Superman and Nuclear man, even though some of it wasn't good due to VFX.

It's not that she remembered everything always, it's that when he revealed himself as both Clark and Superman her memory of when happened was restored...and then by him kissing her again her memory of it was clouded once again

Everyone gets confused by it because it's badly written. Rationalizing it doesn't help.

Superman III is a horrible idea executed excellently. Superman 4 is an excellent idea executed horribly.
