This was such a fun reaction, and to a movie I absolutely adore. I always have. Christopher Reeve is my favorite Superman. Though my favorite version of the Superman storyline is the show Smallville, that's mostly because as a 10 season show, it had a lot more time to explore the story and all the characters than any number of movies could pull off. Tom Welling, who played Superman/Clark Kent in Smallville is a close second in terms of who I love as Superman the most, but Christopher Reeve still beat him by a nose. Smallville is an amazing show, so if you really want to dig into a good Superman story that really does it justice, watch it. I understand if you can't react to it with how long it is (though if you did, I would watch the hell out of it), catch it on your own time. It's incredible. Fun fact for this one. Would you believe Christopher Reeve was an unknown when he was cast for the part? They were looking for just the right guy, with the right look, the right presence, and they wanted a fresh face no one would associate with another film. They wanted the actor to wholly embody Superman. After months of casting and coming across no one who looked or felt even close, he walked in, and before he even spoke, they knew they had found their Superman. Part of the reason viewers bought the whole glasses thing, the idea that a pair of glasses could keep people from knowing Clark was Superman is because it wasn't just the glasses. Reeve carried himself differently when he was Superman versus when he was Clark. You see how he drew himself up in that moment before he almost told Lois who he was. As Clark, he rarely looked people head on, and often kept his head slightly down, thus partly hiding his face. He also spoke differently, less resonant, with a more nasally tone. A large part of what made the disguise work was that he played both parts so differently. Every mannerism made both characters not just look separate, but actually FEEL separate. That would have been incredibly hard to do, and Reeve did it perfectly. For a complete unknown, his acting range was incredible. I agree, the special effects in this film were amazing. Some look the worst for wear now, but many still hold up today. Especially the flying scenes at night. Those look incredible, and they were mostly done with harnesses and wires, which Christopher Reeve has said were incredibly difficult stunts that were sometimes done by him and not with stunt doubles. When this movie came out in theaters, no one had ever seen anything like it. Special affects like this were unheard of done this well up to that point. When this one came out, the movie poster tagline read simply, "You'll believe a man can fly." They were right. And the music is fabulous, as all of John Williams' scores are. To answer a few questions that you had. Superman does actually have to physically change out of his Clark clothes. It's just that he does it so fast it looks like they just move from one to the other. The effect they used when he jumped from the window was just a clever way to show him changing them while in flight. His superman suit was underneath. As far as I know, Superman can't read minds. In some incarnations, maybe he can, but not in this one, and not in the original incarnation. Us hearing Lois' thoughts was just a nice way of letting US hear how she was feeling in a way you can't express visually, letting us know what she's thinking without her flat out telling him. Yes, in the earthquake scene, Lois is dead. He didn't just think she is. She is dead, but when he spins the world backward, he brings her back. This is something he can only do in this incarnation. It makes sense that he wouldn't do it all the time, because then he'd be messing with time, which causes its own problems. Plus, that was something he only did out of extreme emotional pain. It's not something he would do again, because it is forbidden, and Supes is big on following code, especially his own in most versions. Your commentary at the end cut off. I assume you were going to say to let you know if we want to see the second film. Yes, please! Actually, as much as I love this movie I like the second one just a little more. In part, because in the second film, they aren't dealing with origin stories that slow it down the way they did with this one. The groundwork is already laid here. There are other reasons, but I can't explain them because of spoilers. I really hope you react to the second film! When Christopher Reeve died, I was depressed for days. He wasn't just incredible looking, and he didn't just play superman exceptionally well. He was a genuinely nice guy, and a wonderful human being who died way before his time. He was taken from us far, far too soon. RIP, Christopher. May you fly forever with the angels.

Just a heads up if you're planning on reacting to Superman II. There's now 2 versions of Superman II; the original theatrical version, and the 2006 Richard Donner Cut. The reason? Superman and Superman II were shot simultaneously, however, Donner was sacked halfway through and replaced by Richard Lester, who reshot a lot of scenes and saved a load of money by getting rid of any scene with Marlon Brando in it, which results in a MASSIVE plot hole that's never explained until the Richard Donner cut
