I mean Parasite is a villian that can drained energy from anyone he touches even Superman. That sounds like a cool idea for the villian for this movie. Unfornanetly what we ended up getting is one of the worst movies ever made in film history.

      @@kimifw58What I mean different origins, I mean not in a Superman clone kinda way. Also, you are wrong about Doomsday.
      Doomsday was born during prehistoric times on Krypton and was captured by an alien scientist named Bertron. Bertron conducted a series of cruel experiments on a humanoid infant in which it is killed over and over again until it evolved into Doomsday. He isn't a clone of Superman. It is kinda funny how Zack change Doomsday Origin into a ripoff of Superman VI villain and I fail to noticed that.

    True story, none of the actors showed up for the screening of this film. Except for the guy who played Nuclear Man. In full costume. They were meant to have Superman there as well, but as I said, Reeve didn't show up. So the poor guy had to keep explaining to everyone there who he was supposed to be, and why he was there, since the character was invented for this one film.

There's so much distrust that even if the agreement was made, I doubt a single country would actually go through with it.

    You're India, a giant populous economic nation with a variety of ethnic and religious groups (primarily Hindu) but you are surrounded by two rival nations: Pakistan and China. The former is a turbulent, theocratic based, Islamic democracy that has had cold relations with you since the partition of 1947, several wars over territory like Kashmir and interference in the Bangladeshi liberation war, and has financed terrorist groups that have plagued you for decades. The latter is a Communist/Maoist police state that has financed Maoist insurgent groups in Nepal and Northern India, ousted the Tibetan government that you have supported for years from power, suffered several border conflicts throughout your modern history, and is your biggest economic rival all over the world. However, the only thing that keeps all three of you from engaging in a bloody continental war in heavily mountainous terrain (some of which skirts the upper atmosphere) is all three countries' nuclear arsenals. And now Superman shows up and says he's going to take those arsenals away.

    The nuclear disarmament bit really was a slap in the face to the character of Supes. Alongside maybe Captain America, he is the ONE hero who would NEVER consider something like that. Just imagine if you had Superman’s powers. Much like me, you might make it 48 hours before doing something like blowing up the 3 Gorges dam, or glassing the entire Middle East, or simply deleting Africa. The entire point of Superman is that he could solve any problem in an instant. But that would require totalitarian force. And he absolutely will not stand for that. That would be a Doctor Doom approach. And while even divine gods may look at you and say “yeah, that’s the best solution”, Superman is not an aggressive hero. He’s a reactionary hero.

Now who is Teschmacher going to help? The "diseased maniac" who treats her like sh*t, or the charming superhero who treats others equally? And finally 3) becomes outsmarted by Superman in the sequel's climax. You know, Lex, is Superman manages to outsmart *_you_*, I think it's time to retire from crime.

    I don't understand this fascination that shitty movies like this have with how people move in space, especially on the moon. Why is it that they feel like they need to move in slow motion? Seriously, just because the gravity is less does not mean you move slower. Hell, you don't even really fall slower, if anything you'd fall faster cause there's no atmosphere to cause drag which is what causes a feather to fall slower on Earth. When the Apollo astronauts first landed on the moon one of the experiments they did was show that in a vacuum, especially on the moon, that two objects of approximately equal size will fall at the same rate. They dropped a hammer and a feather at the same time and they hit the ground at the same time because there was no drag to cause the feather to move slower. This is why the idea that heavier objects fall faster than light ones is bullshit. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
    Less gravity does not make you move in slow motion, hell, you don't really even fall slower. The only thing that'd really change is that because you're used to fighting gravity to move that were you to try and jump as high as you could, you'd go MUCH further and throwing an object will travel further as well due to the force of gravity pulling it down being reduced (and also because drag from an atmosphere is reduced to the point that it's not there at all). Yes there is gravity but on the moon it's about 1/6 as much as it is on the earth (roughly).
    So movies, fucking stop doing this. I know this movie is old but just fucking stop it.

    The question has to be asked. What's worse: Fant4stic or Superman 4? =P

      Superman 4 is laughably bad, Fant4stic wasn't laughable at all it was just bad. :/

    I don't think crossovers have quite hit their peak yet, still experimental and such. But I feel this is one of the first to really work despite being unrefined. I doubt it's easy to do since someone has to work around BOTH sets of footage, but whoever did this pulled it off well.

    They're probably just pretending to be okay with it because he's THE Superman. You don't fuck with Superman.

    Superman talks in space all the time, especially in the DC animated movies.

      Batman is rich, and he has funneled that money through shell companies, and false identities.

      Marc Baker that doesn’t change the fact that it is very stupid since they had it used for a gag about him bidding over who gets Poison Ivy.
