Anytime I watch Mr. Reeve, whether in an interview or in a role, I feel like I am seeing one of God’s most wonderful creations. What a talented actor, dedicated humanitarian, and brave man. My generation was blessed to grow up watching his work. Thank you Christopher for your humanitarian and artistic legacy, RIP 🙏♥️.

handsome talented unique the whole package ..he was really truly superman to the end he fought..rest in peace you would always be remember a true legend.
My favorite actor ever and the BEST Superman. I cried the day he passed away because he was a part of my childhood. R.I.P. Christopher, I always wished you were Family.
@@vaccumsealed I know that this was 3 years ago and the original comment was 6 years ago but I don't get why you felt a need to insult her like that. I'm assuming that it's just because she's unbelievably gorgeous in the profile picture.
@@JosephHowes2003 unbelievably gorgeous, ya say? Well theres a matter of opinion if nothing more. Lemme ask ya somethin. Do you think a girl that looks like that wouldnt be as shallow and superficial as say some super model fresh off the page or stage of a Victoria's secret fashion show? Think ya gotta chance? By all means...there she is. Knock yourself out, man.
@@vaccumsealed the odds of me getting with her are next to none. That's not the point. The fact that she's beautiful (if that's actually her) doesn't automatically make her shallow and it definitely doesn't give you licence to be a dick. So we have no reason to know whether or not she's shallow but we do know that you're an asshole.
Is it just me, or does he slightly resemble Tom Welling in Smallville a little bit here? Maybe it’s just because of the hair and his youthful look that reminds me of Tom. Absolutely loved that episode in Smallville where they got to share the screen together.
Yeah you're not kidding, that old kind of special effect was so much more scary than these days. I even have a version of Superman III with that part cut out lol.
He is a complete package, tall, good actor, very handsome ...hes face jaw line is like a model...I love you my one and only Super..how i wish you never ride your horse yr 95.. you should still be alive 😘
@@toastedjoe1013 I first got a crush on him after seeing Superman II. The romance with Lois-- even giving up his powers for her-- was wonderfully romantic. I went to see the first Star Wars three times in the theatre, but I saw Superman II four times on the big screen. I would have lived in that theatre if I could. And when he was in Somewhere in Time... Good Lord, it was amazing. Jane Seymour, his female costar, later said that of all the men she had ever kissed on film (and having been a leading lady in several romantic roles, she had kissed quite a few), Reeve was the most romantic kisser of them all.
The scene in the junkyard with evil Superman was quite possibly the best Superman scene ever put to film. It alone was worth the price of admission and more than makes up for the flaws that this film has. Compared to Quest for Peace-----it's on par with the first one. That's *the only* use the 4th one has-----to make the 3rd one look good.

I agree, the first two are the best. But three is good just those are better. Even 4 was ok to me. If Chris is Superman I love it. Superman 1 and 2 are fantastic. Superman 3 is good and 4 is alright.
@@randallreiter9679 if Superman 4 kept the budget that was intended for it, plus all the deleted scenes included in the film to make it longer than 90 minutes, then it would have been a better film than Superman 3
Here is what I have found on Wiki: In 1983, following the mixed-to-negative reaction to Superman III, Reeve and the producers, Alexander Salkind and his son Ilya, assumed that the Superman films had run their course. Reeve was slated to make a cameo in 1984's Supergirl but was unavailable; that film was a box-office failure. Two years later, Ilya Salkind sold the Superman franchise to Golan and Globus of Cannon Films. According to Jon Cryer, who played Luthor's nephew Lenny, Reeve had taken him aside just before the release and told him it was going to be "terrible". Although Cryer enjoyed working with Reeve and Hackman, Cryer claimed that Cannon ran out of money during the production and ultimately released an unfinished film.
Your right, his death isn't funny at all, and I don't see how my comment said anything that would imply otherwise, but before we get into something that will have a bad taste, let's just agree that his death was a sad event, and his part as Superman will always be a joy for me, and hopefully many others still to come.
This is when I really loved the Superman movies and TV shows. Now? The newest ones, not so much. I really loved Lois and Clark, too, and totally agree with what he said about the newest Superman movie. I would love to see Lois and Clark brought back as long as they keep it for family viewing.
He said they said "Let's make superman sick" and then when he got off of the jet he said his head was wierd and his back was broken! :o is this all a coincidence??
I actually like Superman IV a bit more than III. :P Although, I love both films. Better than the trash superhero films we get nowadays. People need to lighten up and open their imaginations. I can see through the budget and behind-the-scenes flaws of these later Reeve Superman films.

Jen Oconnell Hey girlie! I love love love love him too!!! I've been loving him ever since I first saw him in his original first superman movie back in the year of1977...and I was only 6 going on 7 years old at time, and I knew right then and right off I was totally in-love with this gorgeous guy!!! I really truly miss both him and his wife today....its so sad.....
Hey Jen, I also wanted to share with you that dated back when I was in high school I almost dated or I had a BIG crush on this guy that had a resemblance of Christopher Reeve!!!! Yes, he totally looked just like this wonderful and gorgeous actor of all time, and in the whole wide world!!! The only difference was that this guy's hair color and eye color were different from Chris's gorgeous blue-eyes, and dark brown hair. Ok, this gorgeous guy that I went to high school with, and had the BIG crush on his name is Gary Baucum, and Gary's hair color was a light brown near blondish almost, and his eyes are the color of green-blue, and as you know Chris Reeve's eyes were sky-blue...:D but as I can tell ya' Gary was the most gorgeous guy I have ever met or have seen on this earth or planet besides Christopher Reeve!!! And Gary also always wore his hair style in the same form and fashion that Chris Reeve wore his hair with some bangs, and then a part on one side of his head, and then some more bangs on the other side of his head, and in the back it was just worn straight down.....When I was in high school I've always had dreams and hopes of going out with or having a boyfriend with the face of Christopher Reeve's looks or face!!! But never had the chance to.:(....Well, I'm so sorry for such a long message but I just had to share it all with you that's all....Please let me know what you think about all of this??? Looking forward to hearing from you again soon!!!
I would love to know what exactly happened between Christopher Reeve and Richard Pryor. I have seen interviews with both where they talked very highly of one another, and said that they enjoyed working with each other. Then a few interviews after that, they are both saying that they didn't like one another and that the other was very difficult to work with.
bh617 It’s much more appealing on him than the slicked down black hair he had in the Superman films; I guess that they had to stay true to the comic books.
@@bookwoman53 Yep. Unbeknownst to me until fairly recently, he wore wigs as Superman and Clark Kent in each of the four films. There may some instances in the first film in which it's his own hair dyed, but most of what we see on film is a wig.

He was so funny! Hanging out with him and Robin Williams when they were young was probably a blast
RIP Christopher Reeve "Superman" We will miss you, you were and will always be the true Superman to us forever.
👍

By far the best ever Superman
Him and Robin Williams were very close. RIP to both.
Robin Williams helped to pay his medical bills when he was paralyzed. Two wonderful men. How heartbreaking it is to lose them!
Much love to you Mr. Reeve. You turned the world around both on and off the screen. We will never forget you.
the epitome of class and gentleman.. My forever Superman hero
Chris is the best superman no one can replace him
only i can replace him because im the real superman and i can beat your ass, Goku!
handsome talented unique the whole package ..he was really truly superman to the end he fought..rest in peace you would always be remember a true legend.
Chris looks strong as hell here..The world is a darker place without both of these people
And Robin Williams.
My favorite actor ever and the BEST Superman. I cried the day he passed away because he was a part of my childhood. R.I.P. Christopher, I always wished you were Family.

He was still kinda muscular here. From working out for superman 3 the best physique he had as superman

LOVE CHRISTOPHER REEVE HE WAS GOOD ACTOR AND HE IS VERY MUCH MISSED❤
This is Superman. Christopher Reeve was so heroic.
Awwww with his friend Robin Williams :-( Hopefully they are both together again now.
Chris Payne They're not in heaven mate
Erin Sandwell Explain...
John Carter cause there’s no such concept, it’s made up
@Kinosis79 doubt they ever did that
If there is a God and if there is any justice in heaven, then they are.
I bet I know what the scary part is he's talking about. That lady that gets turned into a robot. Still scary for me as an adult.
Yeah you're not kidding, that old kind of special effect was so much more scary than these days. I even have a version of Superman III with that part cut out lol.
It is scary, but imagine you watching your dad get crushed by a scrap metal compacting machine... that could be even more scary!!
I was kinda thinking about Superman drinking and fighting Clark but yeah I think the robot wins
That was 30 years ago and still burnt into my memory
@@Stevenirons I think James is right. From the perspective of Reeve's son, it was probably the compacting machine.
He is a complete package, tall, good actor, very handsome ...hes face jaw line is like a model...I love you my one and only Super..how i wish you never ride your horse yr 95.. you should still be alive 😘
Wow, he was perfect. Tall, handsome, funny, great personality… life is so unfair. Poor guy.
I feel like crying when I see him. :( . It was so tragic what happened to him even his best friend William ends up suicide.
What a beautiful beautiful man... Lived this.
I loved Superman 3. And Richard Pryor was so funny in it. Well put together.
Superman is being interviewed by the one and only Carson. Golden years.
no one can match the original without him there will be no superman at all
Not the original just the most popular
He comes across so well. Great actor and human being.
I had the biggest crush on Christopher back in the day. Thought he was incredible!
My mother thought he was one of the most handsome men in the world at that time.
Did the movie Somewhere in Time have something to do with it?
I loved him as Count Wronsky

That movie is cemented in the anal of movies
THE superman! RIP. Such a funny man :)
6:56 ... And my back was broken & stuff. 🤦♂️ Damn! That became into fruition & pretty accurate in ‘95.
1:43 Here’s the segment that appears in the new trailer for “Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story”
Always will be the best superman ever
Chris is a legend, and the greatest superman! that was my childhood, watching him as superman, he was a great superman !😎🖒🖒
I actually liked Superman III. I thought it was very fun and entertaining. As good as the first two? No, but still good.
I completly agree.
Superman 3 had the best visual effects of all 3 movies by far

Wow I got scared as a kid to Lol thank you Mr reeves God bless you and your family
Τhe best Superman all the time.
I miss him.
Junk yard scene was awesome. The computer, Robot, Virus scene to.
Thanks very much for posting this video :)
Just read his book, Still Me. Heartbreaking x
For that time chris Reeves and Michael Keaton are the definitive superman and batman
👍👍😇
Chris Reeve is so funny
+Ashraf Anam Agreed...love that Batman pic.
What a handsome dude.
Superman 3 scared me as a child. The part when the computer AI took over that women.
Same
Same for me. I thought about that scene before falling asleep every night.
Great film and great actor.
Such a great guy. : )
Look it's Superman 👏👏👏
He seems like a super guy 🙂
This is somewhere around June 1983.

Pilot: "You've always wanted to fly Kent! Now's your chance!"
ROTFL!!
Ah, when a handshake was just a handshake, not an obligated fake bro hug.
👍
"and my back was broken"
What a horrible omen.
Yes. :-(
😧
Those clips were GREAT!
I miss him. 😔
Chris says there wont be a Superman IV to Johnny. I wish he had kept his word.

Superman IV is a guilty pleasure for me. As a rare film fan, getting a hold of an uncut copy (pre-theatrical release) is one of my holy grails.
Sadly, around 6:55 he unknowingly foretold his last moments.
*****
Just why would a very bad condition, which turned out to be basically factual, be funny to me or to anyone else?
Your right, his death isn't funny at all, and I don't see how my comment said anything that would imply otherwise, but before we get into something that will have a bad taste, let's just agree that his death was a sad event, and his part as Superman will always be a joy for me, and hopefully many others still to come.
Iwtlv Pretty sure the comment wasn't intended to be funny. Seemed more like a statement of an observation.

To me, Chris is Superman. Nobody before Chris, nor after Chris!

The Lou Gossetts jr reference is classic.

DankassBombass yes i saw it . So disturbing
I guess the tongue is a powerful weapon. So sad.. He was an exceptional gentleman... In hs accident he really became Superman in real life..
“My back was broken.” Wow.
$5.00, it's $13.00 now
Superman 3: forgivable. Superman 4: not.
You sir are 1000% correct!
Superman 3 was actually pretty awesome but yeah Superman 4 was pretty awful

Started with superman-ended with superman🤣🤣🤣🤣
Robin Williams helped Christopher Reeve financially during his difficult time after the accident.

Way back in 1983.

They edited out the clip from the movie.
That's done in nearly every talkshow interview I've seen.
Copyright Shiite.
But he said he didn't have a TV growing up
Does anyone know the date of this interview?
My best guess is sometime around June of 1983. He's promoting Superman III and that's when the movie was released.
Why edit out the clips?
Quite a head of hair on that guy

He looks like Kerwin Mathews
I'm getting strong Brendan Fraser vibes.

I'm kinda surprised, but he totally stole his jokes from Robin Williams.
They were best friends, you know? That wouldn't surprise me at all!
