Director Richard Donner, actor Mel Gibson, actor Danny Glover, and actress Rene Russo at A Tribute to Richard Donner on June 7th, 2017 at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater.
@@yuna2381 He did and he didn't. Check out SUPERMAN II: THE RICHARD DONNER CUT. As the title states, he damn sure directed that. Yes, he did. And Brando's in it, no less. Watch it the first chance you get.

Just heard that Richard Donner has died. What a great director and human being. RIP
I heard about Richard Donner’s passing today. He lived a great life. 91 years old sounds way young, he is one of the best directors of all time. 2 Superman Movies, Lethal Weapon’s 1-4, The original Goonies and become a producer of the X-Men film series alongside his wife. He’ll be missed dearly. Thank you, Mr. Donner for all the memories. The grandfather of superhero movies.
You know I feel so glad about Mr. Richard Donner but at the same time sad, because if Christopher Reeve was still alive, I would like to hear the gratitude towards Mr. Richard.
Donner is still the best director to understand how a superhero movie should be made. He accomplished it so well with the first Superman in 1978 and then got screwed over by the studio (AKA the Salkinds and Pierre Spengler) immediately after (even though he had already filmed half of the sequel). Thankfully he went on to make such other classics as The Goonies and the Lethal Weapon franchise, while the Salkinds and Spengler accomplished literally nothing else after they failed with what THEY wanted Superman III to be. Very glad to see that Hollywood still honors the man that brought us so much joy and excitement in cinema.
Sooooo many films of his I grew up with that still resonate with me, Superman being the most that always gets an annual viewing. A great director whose films still have such an impact on pop culture.
Richard Donner was a GREAT director. His films were full of heart and humour. From the Goonies to Lethal Weapons, Superman to Scrooged, his talent is missed. Even his horror the Omen was expertly made. RIP Mr Donner.
I just want to express how thankful I am to Richard Donner, Joel Silver, Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, Joe Pesci, Renee Russo and Chris Rock. You guys have no idea how much joy and happiness you gave me with your 4 Lethal Weapons. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Attentively, Robert Padua
Almost forgot to pay condolences today to the Donner family for the loss of a grest man. Easy to forget that he was the driving force behind TALES FROM THE CRYPT getting greenlit for HBO. GOD SPEED, SIR. GIVE CHRISTOPHER REEVES A HUG FOR US....
What a humble man. Listening to him express his gratitude like that, says a lot about him. I was once lucky enough to be on the same film as his guy. RIP.
His Art will live forever, a hollywood legend for sure. Shame he didn’t direct anything after 16 Blocks back in ‘06. An amazing director who definitely shaped our lives. RIP.
I've always dreamt that I'd be at one of these Q&A's just to first thank him for making the best Superman movie Hollywood ever had. Second, to ask him what would have been his and Tom Mankiewicz's vision for Superman 3 if he had the chance to do that. We already saw his vision for the Part 2 with the director's cut. RIP Richard Donner!! ❤️😢
This director is a real legend . His SUPERMAN movie is STILL the movie that's most respectful and faithful to the comic book . He even made one of the best TWILIGHT ZONE episodes with overactor William Shatner . One of my favorite movies of his was one of his least successful movies called INSIDE MOVES . At the ending of the movie he shared a picture of himself and his film crew at the end with the credits .

Who’s here after his passing
This director is a real legend . His SUPERMAN movie is STILL the movie that's most respectful and faithful to the comic book . He even made one of the best TWILIGHT ZONE episodes with overactor William Shatner . One of my favorite movies of his was one of his least successful movies called INSIDE MOVES . At the ending of the movie he shared a picture of himself and his film crew at the end with the credits .
Donner's vision was the genesis of how the super hero genre would look.
Great Director, all his films are so great.
It's too bad we never got Lethal Weapon 5. I was hoping to see it.
Rest in peace. Thank you for the most important comic book ever made
Tears
RIP, Chief

so for that he has earned my respect and im proud to say that i binge watched all his films more than once and if there is one (or more) you haven't seen yet i strongly recommend them all

His best film was Inside Moves.
Greg Diffenthal The most rare one)
Donner agrees with you. He has said in interviews that it's his favorite movie that he has done.
i thought you should reference Mel Gibson as a director not actor?
I see Mel more as an actor than a director.
