That scene caught me _completely_ off guard when I was a little kid. I had nightmares about it for about a year afterward, and it scared me away from superhero movies for a long time. Everyone else says Ursa is hot, but I still get chills looking at her to this day
All 3 actors for the Kryptonians are perfect for their roles. Non is the quiet, stupid brute that is a physical power house. Ursa is deceptively beautiful and soft spoken, cold and calculating, until she comes in contact with man and then she is a force of nature. And Zod is the commanding, confident, eloquent leader who’s always planning 3 steps ahead. Love the cast of these films.
No matter how many times I see it, it pisses me off.....those guys didn't deserve that.....Superman should have brought them home.....at least Zod got his
Richard Donner provided the scariest scenes in this film. He wanted us to despise these unempathetic, super villains. Richard Lester added some good bridgework in the Lois and Clark story, but the fear came from Donner's work. Overall, it's a great film, regardless of the cut.
stan broniszewski Same as Superman and every other comic book character. They don’t need to breathe. Therefore, get rid of their noses and lungs. They don’t really need to eat. Get rid of their digestive systems. Comic book logic obviously makes no sense.
Donner shot the actual lunar sequences before 78' while he was still on both films...pretty sure the NASA control stuff is probably under Lester during his shoot.
This is from the Donner cut where Superman turns back time to put the villains back in the phantom zone. Therefore, the 2 astronauts and 1 cosmonaut become alive again and this incident never happens.
Damn, first she rips his uniform and he starts to suffercate then she kicks him in the nuts into space....death by lack of air while in awful pain. She's cruel.
Also on the last guy, when the lander is about to take off, one of the Kryptonians grabbed one of the landing gears as it ascended while keeping his weight on the surface causing the lander's hull to breach and its engines conk out.
The Wraith I disagree. Ken Thornes orchestrations of John Williams original score worked well for this movie, and he wrote some cool original themes for the third movie, too.
You need to go to a John Williams concert, he, himself conducting his movie scores, at the Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles, during Labor Day weekend. It is sublime. 😍
@@Hello-no7gm The X-ray part is actually a good point. Even though x-rays are a part of the light spectrum they only enable us to see through objects when we shoot x-rays at things. So just being able to see x-rays doesn't account for that ability. A Kryptonian would need to be generating x-rays from their eyes, and how that would work hypothetically is anyones guess. It COULD be possible to see around objects, like a box for example, in a similar way that a cloaking device would work by bending light waves around the object allowing us to se behind it. But when it is a wall where you cannot go around it, well then it wouldn't work. You made this comment 1 year ago. Did you come up with any suggestions yourself?
Hoax moon landing, so they put a big picture of fake moon landing sites between the Earth and the Moon so all people who use TELESCOPE can only see the "FAKE" Moon Landing. Oh, to combat against Flat Earth, use TELESCOPE again, every planets, even the Moon all ROUND, except EARTH which "FLAT".
Poor astronauts. When Ursa rips open his suit, you can literally hear him caving in and gurgling! Imagine his lungs literally exploded in that instant. Very painful, but fun to watch 😂 And the way Zod nonchalantly looks down on the other guy like a piece of trash about to be disposed - and dispose of space trash he does with one almighty yankrip of his air supply! Imagine he also gurgled off into the vacuum..... And Non - the big docile but deadly brute who doesn’t know his own strength..... Final astronaut crushed to death unapologetically. This has to be one of the best and terrifying scenes in Superman history.
Yes, they absolutely mercilessly destroyed the astronauts and with such ease. Do you think though that ursa would have been strong enough to have stopped the lunar module from taking off by holding it back down
@@GA-ys6ud but you have to admit that's pretty brutal as they done it just to be condescending and no good reason at all. Which of course that's what make the villains, villains.
In the original screenplay Non smashes the police car down "like a pancake" with the sheriff still inside. I guess Donner and Co. decided to go bigger with that being the fate of the lunar module/astronaut, but somehow a police car on a desert road seems a lot crueler.
I had always thought the way they pronounced "Hooston" was purposefully meant to emphasize somewhat comically that they were aliens. Lately when I kept hearing BBC World Service news presenters pronouncing it the same way I would chuckle to myself and say, "they're as bad as those villains from Krypton in that Superman movie!" Then I watched this clip and realized the actors saying "Hooston" are themselves British. Now I'm thinking maybe they just looked at the script and read it the way they thought it was naturally supposed to be pronounced. Or maybe they read it that way and instead of correcting them the American director said, "Oh that's perfect, it makes them sound like aliens that've never heard of Houston before. Keep doing that!"
Been wondering that since I was in kindergarten. Maybe it's supposed to be telepathy. Maybe they can force the air out of their lungs strongly enough to carry sound.
I was just wondering the same thing . . . no atmosphere=no sound. But then again, Ursa and the astronaut just standing there mouthing at each other with nothing coming out wouldn't really make for a very menacing scene, would it?
True. How sinister would it have been, do you think, if ... in total silence and only portrayed through the look of confusion and fear on the astronauts face ... Ursa simply, and with cold malice, ripped a hole in his spacesuit like it nothing more than a paper bag. In space nobody can hear you scream!!
Oddly enough I didn't find it scary when I was about 7 years old watching it on TV, but now I find it really chilling, the way they just kill the astronauts like that.
They actually did a really good job simulating the 1/6 lunar gravity with the movement of the astronauts. Not just by slowing down the film rate, but no sign of wires. Hokie-ness aside.
The whole lander looked like it was trying to launch. Normally, the control module on top launches, leaving the landing gear section behind. But maybe the "Artemis" mission was different from the Apollo landers. :)
Yeah, it was more realistic than the 'real one.' Note that it had a tripod landing gear configuration. Also, note that the flame from the lander's rocket engine is also more intense and longer lasting than what we saw 'in reality.'
My 8 year old self couldn’t understand what Zod was mumbling to cosmonaut Boris, I honestly thought Zod was speaking fluent Russian (I mean, Kryptonians know English, why not other Earth languages too, right?)... NOPE. Zod is merely saying "What a fragile sort of life form this is."
General Zod the Astro physicist: The closer we get to an atmosphere with 1 Sun. A yellow Sun... the more our molecular density gives us unlimited powers!
2:22 If this was really mission control, th astronauts' EKG would be blaring the flatline alarm, system readout of craft failure would be off the charts & screen, and there be panic pandemonium from all the personnel there. What we're seeing looks like just another day at Microsoft Help Desk.

Steve There being a little gravity is exactly why it would fall down to the moon. Objects fall in the presence of gravity and dont when they exceed its force.
Kryptonians as Kryptonite is a radioactive rock. They would use Kryptonian - English translator not Google translator also Google company did not exist when this movie was made.
Ratzenberger lived in the UK in the late '70s. During that time, he also appeared in the first Superman film as a missile control technician and in The Empire Strikes Back as a Rebel officer on Hoth.
@@darthroden More like the basis for Nappa, Vegeta, and Raditz. No one accused Japan of being original. Even their live actions films are ripoffs, sometimes. Roshomon was based off of an Ambrose Bierce story, ultimately.
That scene was an Esther Shocker because I’ve watched this movie over 40 years ago because my then teen sister had taken me & a cousin to see this movie because I remember watching General Zod & 2 of his soldiers on the Moon plus I remember watching one astronaut being confronted by Ursa who asked him what kind of a creature are you before destroying his suit then kicking him off the moon & all .
I hate watching this scene (but in a good way) those poor astronauts had no idea this was going to happen to them, they couldn't have possibly considered anything like this happening to them because of where they are. It's really tragic!
You know I was actually trying to watch the one with the new general zod I'm going let this generation enjoy themselves. Because we had incredible actors and the special effects were just a bonus attraction.
Guy on the moon: 'Somebody help me!' Who the hell would come and help you? In case you hadn't noticed, you're on the fucking moon. Not exactly a densely populated area.
This is one of those cases where lying might just be the right thing to do, like where it just might save your life. Had he lied and said he was a powerful creature just hanging out instead of telling her that he was just a man, he may have had a chance at surviving that encounter.

@@troppie7823 From "Austin Powers".
i think she´s cute :D
Anyone notice right at the end when they toss the flag it falls to the moon despite there being little gravity?
Steve maybe it should have floated down
but since the Moon revolved around the Earth, it gave them more unlimited powers such as defying the Laws of Physics
Steve Yep
Steve Super Strength. Remember Ursa performed that field goal kick with the Astronaut.
Steve There being a little gravity is exactly why it would fall down to the moon. Objects fall in the presence of gravity and dont when they exceed its force.
that cable fall so fast
@ not fast, not slowly. At 1,62m/s²

Yeah even the flags non dropped as they flew
1979
Non's name... non, fits perfectly...😂
The real superpower is talking to them in a vacuum.
It's scary to think that... Zod and his buddies also have the ability to turn back time.
They're too stupid to know that.
They could teach Cher!!!
But could he find a way?
@@davestuddaman8127 😂
I love Ursa and general Zod, they are so charming
Wonderful Kryptonian couple.
I’m assuming they were an item!
I'm changing too
What about NON
This scared the crap out of me as a kid.
These kryptonites must be using Google Translator to converse with humans.
Kryptonians as Kryptonite is a radioactive rock. They would use Kryptonian - English translator not Google translator also Google company did not exist when this movie was made.
Well if Superman can speak English as well as Superman Krypton Father and Mother why can't they
Wait, that's John Ratzenberger at the end.
And the person he was talking to is Shane Rimmer.
Artemis could have called for International Rescue...
Ratzenberger lived in the UK in the late '70s. During that time, he also appeared in the first Superman film as a missile control technician and in The Empire Strikes Back as a Rebel officer on Hoth.
He's been in movies going back 100 years, and will continue for the next 100 years. He's an immortal.
Lol!😄Yes, it's him.
William Shaw he also appears in all the Pixar movies too, and my favourite role he does in them is Hamm from Toy Story
U all know these three also inspiration for the 3 saiyans from dragon ball z series
Calvin Harris In some ways, DBZ is often bordering plagiarism from the Superman comics
@@bigpuma444 LMAO for some reason now I picture Zodd and the others doing the Ginyu Force song.
@@darthroden More like the basis for Nappa, Vegeta, and Raditz. No one accused Japan of being original. Even their live actions films are ripoffs, sometimes. Roshomon was based off of an Ambrose Bierce story, ultimately.
That scene was an Esther Shocker because I’ve watched this movie over 40 years ago because my then teen sister had taken me & a cousin to see this movie because I remember watching General Zod & 2 of his soldiers on the Moon plus I remember watching one astronaut being confronted by Ursa who asked him what kind of a creature are you before destroying his suit then kicking him off the moon & all .
I hate watching this scene (but in a good way) those poor astronauts had no idea this was going to happen to them, they couldn't have possibly considered anything like this happening to them because of where they are.
It's really tragic!
You know I was actually trying to watch the one with the new general zod I'm going let this generation enjoy themselves.
Because we had incredible actors and the special effects were just a bonus attraction.
Guy on the moon: 'Somebody help me!'
Who the hell would come and help you? In case you hadn't noticed, you're on the fucking moon. Not exactly a densely populated area.
The moon in this scene had an uncanny resemblance to the 1969 landing. No stars in sight and multiple light sources...
Why would stars be visible? And multiple light sources?
Neil Armstrong walked on the moon in 1969.
General Zod walked on the moon in 1980.
Neil before Zod.
Jimmy Hendrix walked on the moon in the mid 1960's :)
hueston would be like fuck this shit i am r here
That is there sound of Darth Vader’s lightsaber being activated. 0:49
The scene later on in the film where she and other guy lifted a bus to throw at Superman, she apparently strained her arm during filming.
This is one of those cases where lying might just be the right thing to do, like where it just might save your life. Had he lied and said he was a powerful creature just hanging out instead of telling her that he was just a man, he may have had a chance at surviving that encounter.
I would have told Ursula, “I’m a MAN you dumb bitch!” Put her in her place and then tell her to get out my way.
1979
I love that movie 🎥🍿,,, I love FAORA ALOT!!!
1:35 the cable forgot it was on the moon
I'm stoned and happily watching this .. good memories of my childhood
I just remembered the mental scarring from this scene alone,from childhood.
@@essen00cat hahah yeah my dad covered my eyes
