Fun fact: the actress who played his gf in this movie went on to be Clark Kent’s mom for all 10 seasons of Smallville
Interesting
Loved Smallville….
Annette was too polished to pass up
Quite a few characters from Superman had cameos in Smallville. Christopher Reeve played Dr Swann, Margot Kidder played Brigitte Crosby and Marc McClure a kryptonian called Dax Ur.
@@kyokusanagi616Terrance Stamp (Zod!!!) as the voice of Jor-El
“I hope you don’t expect me to save you lady cos I don’t do that no more” is probably the most gangsta line in a super hero movie ever.
Or when he confronts her at the computer- "I don't know you, lady!" all stone cold 😎
Richard Pryor as Mr. Mxyzptlk would actually have been a good idea. He is bit of an agent of chaos, so it works well with the beginning of act one.
Actually, I was thinking more of The Prankster
He would have made a great Mr. Mxyzptlk!
Christopher Reeve looked pissed off this entire movie as Superman!
😅😅😅
I would be too if I was in SUPERMAN III.
But it worked playing Evil Superman
Fans: "Man, Superman 3 was a big downgrade from the first two." Superman 4: "Hold my kryptonite beer"
Superman 4 was better than this
Superman 4 at least had a germ of an idea that was just really badly executed this is just all around bad.
Facts. Anyone saying 4 is better is straight cappin unless you can find a scene better than Superman getting drunk and then fighting himself.............................................................that's what I thought
😅😅😅😂
disagree 4 is better. it may be cheaper and also really bad don't get me wrong but its better. Lois is in it more Lex returns, Superman actually gets to fight a super villain again. to its credit it actually tried to be a superman movie this one is just a complete farce
I have a special place in my heart for Superman III. Seeing Superman drunk in a bar flicking peanuts at bottles of booze is just solid gold trash!
One good thing about that scene
At least they referenced it again in Supergirl tv show
You’re breaking my childhood by adding logic into this movie🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nobody:
The director: This movie needs a little flavor. Get me Richard Pryor!
Also make opening where Metropolis is turned into slapstick city.
@@bearerofbadnews1375 Metropolis Was Supposed To be Fictional City Based Of The DC/Marvel Universe
You can blame The Salkinds for these films going off the rails.
Has nothing to do with Richard Lester. It was the Salkinds and Warner that wanted Richard Pryor because he was such a huge star at the time they though he would somehow make the movie amazing just being in.
From the way Richard Pryor talked about it he thought that he was actually going to come in and do something serious and they just wanted him to be Richard Pryor
Fun Fact: Clark fighting Superman was supposed to be Bizzaro, but they canned the idea.
Yup I remember they did that I wish they didn't.
@@ZavaXavier I don't think we ever got Live Bizzaro either.
@@eXistenZ1864 Only in the Superboy TV series and Smallville.
@@ZavaXavier I think I vaguely remember something on Smallville, it's been so long, lol.
@@ZavaXavierSuperman & Lois too
I’ve come to love Korey's impression of Richard Pryor as much as Billy's laugh. And seeing Robert Vaughn's sister turning into a robot in this flick scared the shit out of me as a kid!
Yeah that scene scared the crap out of me as a kid too lol
I used to cover my eyes when I saw her become a robot.
SAME, brother. Jesus that was traumatic.
Korey does some great impressions especially the Richard Pryor one! 😂
Yes! Oh GOD that was traumatic for me! Still is!
I'm not ashamed to admit that this was the first Superman movie I remember watching as a kid. The the scene where evil Superman fights Clark kids is still great.
Richard Pryor in this movie as far as being scared is a true representation of me when I don’t take my anxiety meds 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🏽♀️ and then drink coffee
The whole slapstick thing didn't start with this movie, it started with Superman 2 when the studio replaced Richard Donner with Richard Lester. You can even see the point in the film where Lester takes over.
True
Annette O'Toole got her role on Smallville based on her knowledge of Superman from Superman III.
The people auditioning her didn't even realize she had previously played Lana until she told them.
@@popeye697indeed
Annette is one of few women who read comic books as a kid. She was a Superman fan long before she was cast as Lana Lang in Superman III. Obviously getting that role was a dream come true. In a podcast she talked about the first time she saw Christopher Reeve on the set in his Superman costume.
@@1977TA Now that's an Actress who knows the Source material also her and Stacy Haddock are two of my favorite live action Lana Lang.
@@ZavaXavierno love for Kristin?
This never feels like a Superman movie. It feels more like a Richard Pryor movie guest starring Superman.
No kidding and especially because of the way Warner Executives screwed the country over with this instead of Brainiac.
God Damn and Because This is Like The Toy 2
Pretty much.
The first two films had their fair share of comedy and light heated moments. But this film took it WAY too far.
Also the evil computer is the closest we’ve ever gotten to see Brainiac in a live action film so far.
"Bad Movie"???? You don't think having a guy ski down a skyscraper was a major cinematic innovation???
As a kid I knew this was the moment I could do anything
That sounds like some Fast X shit lol
The cinematic equivalent of jumping the shark. Lmao
That scene I was wondering if superman would swoop in and save Richard Pryor. But nope he falls off a building and somehow survives.
That sounds like something from a Sonic game.
The original script had Superman going against Brainiac, Bizarro, Myxzylpltk, & Metallo, which is why we got the Gus Gorman, Dark Superman, & the supercomputer in the movie
Shame they changed it so much.
Wow! 4 of Superman foes would had been in Superman 3? Damn I wished Alexander and Illyad Salkind did not fire Richard Donner 🤦♂️
the bad movie roast we deserve, AND the one we need right now
The best part of the movie is when Drunk Superman fights Clark Kent.
It's freaking Annette O'Toole. I met her and her fine self on the subway.
That's cool
They didn't use lore.
Richard Pryor could have been Toy Man or something.
They could have used Brainiac.
Lex finance it all. He goes to jail again.
Pryor could have been Mr. Myz since he turned the movie into slapstick.
@anaknangfilipina5846 I was just using plot they used but hell yeah.
@@juan-josegarza7039 The unknown factor is if Pryor can do sociopathic since the Mr I know can be one.
The transformation at the end truly f*cked up me when I saw it as a kid!
Me too I was 9 went to see it that scene freaked me out so creepy and scary.
Yes, I thought I was the only one.
They gave Pryor NOTHING to work with. Just casted the man and told him “Do something funny”. 😂
The poster alone shows you how huge Pryor was in the 80's. Then they turn him into a buffoon.
By the huge success of Beverly Hills Cop in 1983/1984 Eddie Murphy surpassed Richard Pryor’s popularity
"Christopher Reeve and Richard Pryor in Superman 3!" Great stuff! I know the movie's silly in a lot of ways. But I still love it a lot! :)
Christopher REEVE. Christopher Lee played Count Duku in the Star Wars prequels.
@@orlandoruizjr3834 :) Christopher Reeve indeed :)
Trivia, the lady who brings in the "Big Prize Bingo" Perry White is playing is the actress who did the voice for "Mother" in Alien :)
Back when movies could afford to use a Beatles song just in the background of one scene.
That would’ve cost them $250,000+ now
I think with the junkyard fight the director wanted to show it as an internal fight in his mind as Clark was battling for control. Maybe they should have had some crew workers appear at the end and show that nothing in the real world happened to confirm my theory.
It was supposed to be Bizzaro that's why.
@@LordLOC Yup
Bad as this movie is, it still The Dark knight compared to Superman 4
"Maybe he couldn't open the door or something....I don't know...."
Billy, you're so nice.
Weird trivia: 1983 was a busy year for Superman III’s director of photography, Robert Paytner, as he had two other projects that same year, Trading Places and the Thriller music video.
Yes, both this and Thriller had the same cinematographer.
Weird, right?
The way Richard Donner departed Superman is one of the reasons why I will never use my Bachelor’s Degree in Film to become a movie director.
Wow thats funny
You mean the way they fired him because he didn't want the movie to look stupid
@@popeye697 Exactly.
This is one of my guilty pleasure movies....I mean it bad, but Reeves was still Super and Richard Pryor is my favorite comedian..The scam he pull off, I know someone is doin that now!
Its like one of those golden age Hollywood comedy film gimmicks where they had famous comedians crossed over with a famous monster
Flash Fact: Christopher Reeve attended a party at Richard Pryor's house with Robin Williams and proceeded to sniff up all the cocaine present to the point Richard Pryor had to send one of his drug mules out for more.
What???!!! That's crazy!!! Is that true?
Yes. It was in one of either Richard or Robin's (Maybe Paul Mooney's) biographies because for a while they all ran with the same crowd.
Christopher Reeve threatened to quit Superman III unless the producers and director Richard Lester allowed him to rewrite a few scenes.
Really? Where did u read that from?
@@mew10521 IMDB. Christopher Reeve hated how the Salkinds fired Richard Donner. Richard Lester agreed to Christopher's request for the sake of his reputation as a movie director.
@@Hectorferjr2 could you tell me which scenes?
@@mew10521 I don't particularly know which scenes Christopher requested to be rewritten.
@@Hectorferjr2 I'm late to this post? Did this also have to do with Margot Kidders limited aka reduced role in this sequel? As she also wanted Richard Donner to direct Superman III?🦸🦹🎥🎬
There are moments in Superman 3 like the Evil Superman fight and Christopher Reeves is still great but it’s too focused on comedy and especially Richard Pryor who is miscasted. BTW Richard Pryor is a huge Superman fan so that’s why he is in the movie and also the director Richard Lester also did the 70s Musketeers movies, Robin and Marian, The Film Adaptation of A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Form and most importantly Beatles A Hard Day’s Night and Help
i didn't know that
@@lenindominguez1986 Richard Pryor also scored with Lois Lane during production! And had previously made another movie together in 1982 titled Some Kind Of Hero. 🦸🦹🎥🎬
The boy Superman gave the picture to at the beginning played toddler Superman in Superman the Movie.
I like all the Clark and Lana in Smallville stuff, but it feels like they took half a Superman III script and half a Richard Pryor comedy script and Frankenstein’ed them together
Is this the one where Lois comes in at the start of the movie, tells everyone she'll be on holiday and then does so until the last minutes of the film?
Yes I believe so ...She may have been contractually obligated to appear in it
The irony Annette O Toole would go from playing as Lana Lang to Superman's mom in Smallville.
Edit: If there was ever a live action Courage The Cowardly Dog film, Richard Pryor would fit the role perfectly 😅.
Edit: Do you know Richard Pryor passed away a long time ago in 2005 SMH.
@@ZavaXavier 👍🏾
Whoaoaoaoaah!
Richard prior is still the 🐐 ❤
The fight between Evil Superman and Clark is the best part of the movie. A great Superman moment.
I like “drunk off his ass” Superman. He blew out the Olympic Torch. He straightened out the Leaning Tower. He let a truck fall off a bridge, because he was trying to score with 1983 era Annette O’Toole. Dude even had a miscellaneous hookup atop the Statue of Liberty. The rest of the movie is tripe. That second act is comic gold. Have seen tons of evil Superman variants and riffs. This is the only time I’ve seen the character being a straight up “eff’ your couch” troll. Love it!!!
Don't forget he smashed the blonde chick too....
The first movie from my childhood that made me think "wow, this kinda sucks"
As a little kid I have questioned the logic of the traffic light men fighting too! I remember that visual so well, more than anything else in the movie
For me this is worse than Quest for Peace, at least it was shorter and So bad it’s good. That said, I think it could be fixed by Taking Superman out completely and making it a comedy about a computer wiz trying to con a sleazy CEO. A better script would help.
Man I love Annette O'Toole! I'm gonna have to watch Superman 3 now
I couldve SWORE they reviewed this movie already lol...
They sometimes review a movie then double back and do a roast video incorporating movie clips of the same one
Korey Richard Pryor's impression is pretty on point.Despite the cynical move of putting a comedian in the centre i kinda love it and it definitely something that wouldn't happen today i feel denied Eddie Murphy was never shoved in batman 89.
People need to watch the extended cut of Superman 3 and 4, which makes both these movies superb and makes it up for the plot holes, lack of charachter development and more space to reveal the story inside the story itself.
I am not ashamed to admit i love superman 3. Physically Reeve looked great in it. Also the comedy in it is not far off from what the comics were like in the late 70s
Right and does Korey not see any of the mcu films they have comedy in those as well
This is the movie that taught me that weather satellites can contol the weather not just monitor it
I just realized this dumbass movie is where this weather controlling conspiracy theory started.
Clark Kent vs. Superman is a great scene, the chemical plant meltdown scene was awesome. Superman 3 is criminally underrated. The Superman video game at the end. Stop this insanity 😂😂😂
The opening of Superman 3 I quickly knew it was gonna be something bad.
its crazy how quickly superman movies got awful after superman 2. at least when the batman films did that same thing it was gradual this would be like if they released Batman and Robin after Batman returns. at least Forever was easing us into what was to come.
@@evenhartwick4422 💯💯
Can we have a full series review from Double Toasted on Smallville (the show) since fine ass Anette O’Toole was in that too as Mama Kent.
Superman 3 may have been goofy as hell but it was the last hood superman movie live action wise
Came home and saw this is the roast! Tbh I LOVE this movie! It’s fun, light, goofy, very comic bookey. It’s not good. But it was a HARD, impossible follow up to the first two
4:23 Richard is nervous 😰😨
5:25 always hate it when Hollywood does that 🙄
14:40 they are rude lol 🤣
15:10 got them moves! 💯
19:00 Someone definitely had been injured 💀👀
22:04 let me think no! 🙄😆
24:45 that's horrifying lmao 🔥😭
29:45 Richard is hilarious 😂
31:26 the sound I make getting lost in different countries 😭😂
33:42 wait what is that screaming?!
37:00 hmm suspicious 🧐🤨
41:28 right in front of his lady 😭
49:14 super depressed & alcoholic 🍺😑
50:51 he's angry 😡
52:38 well that's disturbing to hear..
53:02 that face 👀💀😂
Superman 3 is worst movie I had seen, the only good thing about it is Richard Pryor and Christopher Reeve. 🤷🏾♂️
Corey got me rollin wit the Richard Pryor yell😂
His Richard Pryor yell is goat status lmfaoo
You missed the 40th anniversary this past June!
I feel bad Richard Pryor wasn’t given better material
Heck this has more of him than Superman
I wonder how high the executive was that pitched this script and film 😂
Well Richard Lester was the director of the two live action Beatles movies during the 60s. The slapstick silliness seen on those movies and Superman III is very much on brand.
Imagine Spider-Man 3 with Chris Tucker…that would have been the same as this
The only good part was seeing clark fight evil superman.
Holy shit, I just discovered your channel this week and been going through your videos. I watched Superman 4 vid two days ago and was wondering when a Superman III review was coming
If you enjoy Double Toasted, look up their old Spill reviews. That was their show before they started Double Toasted in 2014. I'd highly recommend the Spill review of A Haunted House, that one is hilarious 😂
Superman III was a comedy show. As a kid I was laughing my a** off 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Have not watch this movie is decades.
I saw this YEARS before Superman 1 and 2, since I had nothing to compare it to, I absolutely loved it, took years before I realised it was terrible
Wow
This was like when they tossed Chris Rock into Lethal Weapon 4-- An already beloved franchise where they randomly stuck the "black funny guy of the moment".
At one point in the 90s Chris Rock was gonna be Jimmy Olsen in a Superman reboot.
Damn-they brought up Superman 64. The worst comic book game ever 😂
You said that right.
Korey's Richard Pryor impression is always a surefire laugh
Can easily compare it to the one Damon Wayans had done! HUGE compliment! ❤
The Clark v Superman scene is almost worth the price of admission. It's bizarre (lol), but it's such a fun and imaginative sequence, where these days they'd just CG punch each other for ten minutes. I love how Reeve shows that Superman isn't just pissed off, but clearly in pain. That blood-curdling scream he lets out when he lands in the junkyard is honestly haunting.
Hey I love superman 3, don't crap on my childhood!
Exactly
Yes.
You can love it all you want, that doesn't mean we all have to, lol. I get that comedy is subjective, but man, this is one of the most painful comedies I have ever seen. The scenes in Kansas are good and the junkyard Superman fight is great. That's all I got 😂
@@robertwild9447this movie is infinitely better than superman 4 the quest for peace!
@@robertwild9447
💯
Unironically, this has some of my favorite superman moments......asshole superman needs to come back
From what I've heard, outside of the famous Chinese Theater in Hollywood, there has been a scammer that's been there for years dressed as Jerk Superman that tries to force tourists to pay him for pictures, and he often gets into fights with other scammers dressed as popular superheroes that do the same thing, LOL.
So glad you did Superman 3. Laughed my ass off throughout. I think the next film you should do is either Red Sonia or Sheena.
They're doing "Marked for Death" featuring Steven Seagal next.
When Gus fell from the building in the skis and tablecloth, that's when the movie really started going downhill. That and when the traffic lights began fighting each other.
Richard Pryor and Superman were a worse combination than Richard Pryor and cocaine.
What do you think financed this venture?
With Christmas time just around the corner, Black Christmas 2019 is PERFECT for a bad movie roast.
I've watched a few interesting attempts by fans to rewrite this film, including having Gus exposed to some alien goop or whatever that grants him his super-human computer know-how (possibly leading to Brainiac). It also makes sense for the malevolent super-computer he's compelled to design. What's wild is that, in the actual movie, Gus's computer skill is still kind of framed as almost paranormal, but ultimately comes across as the screenwriters thinking that computers are just like magic.
This is one of my guilty pleasures. So bad it’s good.
If you look in the wheat field the kid hits his head on a rock. You can see it lying next to him.
But when I first saw this movie, I lost it when the traffic light signal men fought each other.
Richard Pryor's character didn't find the Kryptonite, he made it, but got the ingredients wrong.
Superman can't get drunk because his body wouldn't be affected by alcohol.
Superman melts the mirror in the bar with his heat vision, but it was established back in Superman 2 that an ordinary mirror can reflect heat vision.
The fake kryptonite really had the effects of red kryptonite. I wish they hadnt made it green in the movie.
@@TheOneManWhoBeatYou I was born in Brooklyn, I wouldn't know a plow from a rake from a thresher. Lol
@@maximusprime3459 OMG! I've been saying that for years. Every time somebody brings up Superman 3. Why didn't they just make it red kryptonite? Gus added tar as an ingredient when the final component turned out to be unknown, so naturally you'd get some weird variant.
@@maximusprime3459
Agreed, should have been red kryptonite from the start.
1:07:48 Blonde Bully: You know, I hate you Clark!
Clark: Why?
Blonde Bully: I hate you Clark, you know why?
Clark: Why?
Blonde Bully: Because, you're nice...
And nice guys finish...
Laa-Aaaaaagh!!!
I could of sworn y'all roasted this already.
They've roasted Superman 4 and Supergirl before doing this one.
Okay thought I was trippin. I definitely remember them roasting this one in the past because he played the Wayans bit in the other one too.
Yall should roast a movie called white mans burden starring Harry Belafonte and John Travolta it's so bad
😅😂I remember that one. My uncle always called it the Lost Village of The Planet of the Apes...
Oh yes!! I was waiting on this one! And its over an hour long too!!😂😂
A hour of saying nothing fr.
The blond lady in this movie was 🔥
Of Course lol
So was Annette O'Toole.
@@maximusprime3459 Don’t remember her honestly. She seemed like a minor character
@@maximusprime3459Wasn’t she in Smallville?
@@chasehedges6775 look Her Up On Wikipedia
There's only one part in this movie that's good the junkyard one.
The version I grew up watching had the opening credits in space with the Superman March and it was perfect. Then over the years I found out the opening credits are over an awkward comedy set-piece.
Growing with movies like this, flash Gordon, the princess bride, Hudson hawk, Ice pirates,big trouble in little china & so on is why I'm able to get so much enjoyment out of stuff like love, and thunder.
Much like love and thunder, there's interesting plot potential here (especially in the romantic area) drowned out by trying too hard at inserting comedy.
It does have the 2nd best line of dialogue in any Superman movie TBF. 🤷🏼♂️
That fight scene between the traffic signals was his first AI, which points to him making the one to defeat Superman.
I'm happy to see Billy here as always, but does anyone know where Martin has been lately?
On a London trip
I also notice korey seems a bit strange these part couple vids .hope everything good, been watching these guys for years now
For what it's worth, I just about died laughing at the bowling alley scene
As a kid kinda loved the opening, now just rember all of the cameos, the rest of the movie a joke it self
This video should have been brought to you by better help
Batman Forever deserves a reappraisal
I think u should do a movie roast of The Naked Gun movies or Airplane.
Oh ICEEs are still around and are delicious!!!!
This ain't a Superman movie no more. It's a Comedy that just so happens to be a third Superman movies.
A new fan. This may be one of the funniest commentaries. Also your love of film shines through the silly and fun comments. You all rock
Stan
I still think there's a GOOD Superman film in this that's been 50-50 Frankensteined onto a Richard Pryor comedy
Your enjoyment of this film is proportional to how much you can stomach that mix
