  • i just love 70's 80's and 90's movies nowadays movies suck

  • @ImperatorSextilius that's not what it is. it's a GOOD movie

  • If II would have been shot based on Mankiewicz's shooting script it would have been amgical and an epic film like the first one.

  • @SuperBlurayfan No it wouldn't. It would have been slow. The first one is too boring for kids.

  • My Favorite Superman movie by far. The whole turning back of time ruined the first one for me and of course Terence Stamp is one of the greatest supervillains to grace the screen.

  • 1:06 pause it and you'll see

  • lol

  • i like chirstopher reeve and tom welling

  • Does anyone have the scene where Non throws the Siren light Killing the kid who was at least a mile away at the time. trying to escape on bike to get help at that small town they tore apart. I haven't seen that scene in 30 years. they have never played it again since. Didn't seem like a Big Deal at the time.

  • Superman: The only American to get to a battle before it was over.

    ...and he didn't start any either.

  • @Abrams1985 Yeah,I thought that episode was going to have more superman,also the fighting with lionel/darkseid had so much potential,but they messed it up. Either way if i were Tom Welling would've been excited to get to wear the original suit.

  • @shadowofbat I think so too.

  • @MrSk8fox Yeah. On Smallville Tom Welling was offered to wear the original costume for the series finale and he turned it down and chose the one from Superman Returns.Now that blew my mind.

  • @nintendude24 It doesn't really matter, we could only see him as superman for few minutes and from distance...:(

  • sniff :( christopher reeve can you hear me???

  • richard donner's superman 2 > richard lester's superman 2

  • I think that Superman II is the greatest superhero movie ever made. I mean, it had everything, including the perfect antagonists. Superman was good, but it didn't focus enough on the action. This one had it all.

  • The special effects in this sequel, at least as shown in the previews, are really awful. Quite unprofessional.

  • @roaringrockets No, they are not. This was 30 years before X-Men, you fucking fool. The SFX for their time were fucking brilliant.

    Now go get a job, kid. I think flipping burgers might be your forte.

  • @monkcr I wouldn't go that far,but it was just that Gene Hackman portrayed a more comedic side of Lex Luthor than in the comic books and how Kevin Spacey did.In this movie,Lex Luthor is pretty much just tagging along for the ride with the 3 villains.

  • @sprmn81 Agreed,and sequels normally can't duplicate the original.I've watched this one many more times by far than I did the 1st Superman.

  • Trailer always spoils

  • Old but gold... never a new film about Superman will be better than Superman I and II.

  • Is it me or does anyone else think those three villians are the creepiest ever? Something about their eyes I think.. They terrified me as a kid and actually still do!

  • Not trying to be disrespectful but if superman had sex with Louis... omg what her pussy is made of? lol

  • en esta peli los efectos son buenisimos para esa epoca, las pelis de superman de hoy en dia son feas.

    Esta peli me la vi un par de veces en la tv y nunca la he olvidado,me encanta.

  • I have this film since 1987

    Great film

  • I do think this and Supe 1 are the best ones. Just look at the cinematography and compare it to the newest Superman Returns. THEY USED THE SAME FRIGGIN MUSIC AS THIS ONE IN THE BEGINNING WITH THE TRUMPETS AS THE CAMERA DESCENDS ON KRYPTON. I MEAN COME ON GUYS IF THEY ARE SAME MUSIC AS 1980!!! WELL SHEESH IF THEY CAN DO A REMAKE OF "FOOTLOOSE" WITH KENNY LOGGINS REDOING HIS OWN SONG FROM THE 80'S LATER THIS YEAR, MOVIES HAVE NOT GOTTEN MUCH BETTER GUYS

  • hated this movie.............so flying so fast to reverse rotation of the earth to rewind time???..........that doesnt even make science fiction sense.............this movie sucked.

  • @IGNsucks eh? That was Superman 1... unless you're talking about the stupid ending of the Donner cut.

  • Comment removed

  • Lester-Donner, because talking talking talking, emotion inconsistency and epic and bigger and less memorable, doesnt make it better.

  • Christopher Reeve was an asshole

  • @racebannon86 What the...............???!!!!!!

  • My initial reaction was I cant believe how dated the film looked, then something happened to me, and I remembered how much I loved these films! By the end of the trailer it all came back, and I dont care about the dated graphics, I need to go watch this amazing unique revolutionary film.

  • Superman's epic line "Would you care to step outside" is not in the Richard Donner version. Instead he says "General, haven't you heard of freedom from the press".

  • Actually Donner was fired with 80 percent of Superman II filmed. So they brought in Lester too refilm almost the entire film. I do like Donners cut though, and am glad its finally out on dvd.

  • 0:19 "Each one with the powers of Superman" Really? Why have we never seen Superman do that finger pointing levitation trick?

  • "Why do you say this to me when you know I will kill you for it?"

  • I've seen both cuts but I don't remember that Paris scene.

  • @Herreken Paris was in the original cut I'm sure

  • @ninelivecat Ok. It's been so long since I've seen Superman 2. I haven't even seen the Director's Cut (I think).

  • @ninelivecat I'm pretty sure it wasn't. The whole paris scene is what elevates Lester's cut for me.

  • @thestubris I said that Paris was in the original cut.I mean't The Richard Lester Cut which was the original cut .

  • @ninelivecat I understand. I assumed you meant Richard Donner's "original" original cut..before he was fired.

  • @RagDollMovies Not true, in Empire it was done in space so it was easier, read SUPERMAN 2 reviews,

  • @DarPower1 there was like 2 scenes in space in empire. most of the effects were on the planets.

    reviews? imdb overall score for empire is 8.8/10… superman 2, 6.7/10…yeah

  • Superman 2 would have been a better movie if they didnt fire Richard Donner and replaced him with the other director, Who then directed superman 3 and made it a slapstick comedy...

  • the 1979 superman costume is mutch better than the one in superman returuns thumbs up if u agree

  • Comment removed

  • @MrSk8fox totally. the color in SUPERMAN RETURNS makes superman's cape look deep crimson instead of bright red.

  • I saw both cuts and it's like watching two different movies...Pretty cool.

  • We dont see a lesson of principles like this in the movies today.

  • i thought christopher reeve was a great inspiration in the superman movies discouraging people away from violence with the charachters he played

  • @210482fmj  yes I agree and Susannah York thought so ,too, when he passed way.

  • @210482fmj This is why people complaining about SUPERMAN RETURNS not having the Man of Steel throw a punch really piss me off. Superman isn't about violence...he is ultimately a savior NOT a warrior.

  • is that Khal Drogo? at 1:40? xDD

  • what the fuck trailer

  • How comes many people including myself think this is the best in the superman series, but superman part 1 gets a higher rating on imdb.

  • @drwhomasterfan I agree about Superman II being the best of all Chris Reeves series. That's iMDB's opinion; if there were a survey of which version was the best, I think S2 will be #1! I bought the S2 Richard Donner cut;

    I'm looking at the flick and I'm thinking "WTF!!!!"

  • kiiler111 joke a gay guy comes and tell this what happen why hes dead and the guy says but the gay guy says but what happen the killed him cause he was gay and the guy talks like a man now super man cool wwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa yah

  • kiiler111 joke a gay guy comes and tell this what happen why hes dead and the guy says but the gay guy says but what happen the killed him cause he was gay and the guy talks like a man now

  • You are off by the release date by one year! It was released in 1981 not 1980!!!!

  • NOW SON OF JOR'EL KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Do you think there'll ever be a chance of an ANIMATED Superman movie, with Christopher Reeve made to look like Superman? I think it can be done...I'm sure there's plenty of Voice actors that could pull of a convinving Christopher Reeve voice/accent. Even if it's fan made, I'd watch it.

  • Is tha trailer sponsorized by Pepsi ?

  • Nill beforeTom 6093 !!!!!

  • 406 people like the adventure continuing!

  • General Zod is needed today to visit the White House and force Obama to show us his REAL birth certificate.

  • @ImDavidGurney LOL...could you imagine...

    General Zod: show the American people your birth certificate, Hussein...

    Obama: you're acting stupidly, let me examine your racist past...

    General Zod: he's not only a coward, but a communist...

  • i actually like lex luthors style in this movie

  • The best Superman movie ever!

  • This is probably one of the best sequels ever made!! The Richard Donner Cut was even better though!!

  • @Dukeguy101 No I prefer Richard Lesters original cut.

  • This moive is pure magic!!

  • Thumb up if you think Superman 1 and 2 are the only ones that should exist!

  • @Treyb3yond Sorry, but I am a Smallville fan despite it's flaws. That show does get some credit for being able to get Christopher Reeve to guest star, having Helen Slater (Supergirl 1984) play Lara El, and Teri Hatcher (Lois &Clark) playing Lois and Lucy's mom.

    Smallville admitted that they based their General Zod on this one here, and he is last seen on that show in exactly the same situation as he is in the beginning of Superman II.

  • @Treyb3yond superman 1 and 2 are just like batman 1989 and batman returns

  • @Treyb3yond No because the technology we have today, there is huge potential to make an awesome Superman. Just have to have writers stop screwing it up

  • @Treyb3yond

    I find the others like spin-offs

  • @Treyb3yond

    A bad Superman movie is better than a NO Superman movie. We the people need more SM films dammit! Anything but the church.

  • @Treyb3yond The third one wasn't bad,but the last one in the Christopher Reeve era was forgettable.

  • holacomo

    

  • "Superman II, brought to you by Coca-cola."

  • I take my previus comment back. I fuckin' LOVE this movie!

  • the best of the 5 films

  • I just hope they change Superman's voice so that he sounds like he smokes 3 packs a day.

  • That trailer sucked asshole

  • Terrence Stamp kicks ass by himself- he doesn't need help!

  • WATCH':;FREE';:MOVIES'::ONLINE­!.,`

  • 2:04 courtesy of Pepsi.

  • @GeorgeWPavkovich Believe me, anyone's English is WAY better than yours.

  • @LeBadman why?

  • @GeorgeWPavkovich Because 'more' and 'better' cannot be written together.

  • I like both this theatrical version and the Richard Donner Cut as well. But I wish Donner would have been allowed to finish II.

  • Saudade eterna desse filme !!! minha infancia!

  • One of the best!

  • What I can't understand is how this got a 99 on Metacritic, placing it above the Godfather.

  • @whichoney , thats a fair thing to point out, godfather was awesome.

  • @whichoney Simple cause SUPERMAN II kicks ass!

  • 25 people kneeled before zod

  • this has to be the best superman movie. my faiviroute character was ursa

  • Yeah fuck CocaCola 

  • Trailers back then sure did show too much from the films. At least that means back then you can tell if the movies are good or not. Some teasers now hide the truth that the movie is crap.

  • aaah, my childhood =)

  • First 2 movies were the best. I even enjoyed 3. 4, can take it or leave it but I think it was out of gas by that point. Returns was ok but could have been better.

  • LOOOOL. DragonBall Z soooooo ripped this off.

  • I remember being so excited as a kid going to watch this film at the cinema, must've been about 8 or 9 years old...

  • @SilverShamrock71 I was 9. Loved it.

  • I wis hthey would continue this series instead of idiotic reboots that cause people to lose interest

  • with christopher Reeves you feel the superhero vibe, i still feel the childhood vibe it's still there and its going to stay for ever.

  • Superman II is the greatest superhero movie ever!

  • Watched the Superman movies so many times...never got tired of them...=)

  • RIP Christopher Reeve - you were awesome

  • A good trailer for one of the greatest films ever !!!

  • Um dos maiores filmes de todos os tempos! eterno !

  • Where the narrator sais if you've only seen the first part, you haven't seen the best part. And he WASN"T KIDDING :)

    The first one I think is still the Origin story to beat, But it laid the foundations for what was a better Sequel :)

  • Loving that non-chalant kick at 1:38

  • I'd love to see a Superman & Power Rangers team up. White Ranger v General Zod would be an interesting contest.

  • yes we get it! that adventure continues!

  • The Female Kryptonian gives me a boner :)

  • @gadgetine007 i stared at her a lot when i watched this movie during spring break

  • Definetly the best Superman movie IMO. Much better paced than the original, better villians and full of epic action scenes and moments...

    1:58 is Awesome!!!

  • Wat aload of GAY SHITE. Christ ny grandad use 2 go on n on abt these old superman movies n like dat reeve fella r watever da fuck his name was n how cool these supeman movies where n shit. Man he was sooooooooo wrong. These old movies luk like a fucking gay nightmare n like sooooooooooo cheap lukin, u idiots that live in da past need 2 go da cinema n see how cool movies r now. Get a life dudes. RaSpex.

  • @imdacoolestguy Then why complain? Did anybody destroy your life to do this vendetta? You seem to sound like a man on a vengeance.

  • @imdacoolestguy the cinema's nowadays have to rely on remake of old movies to atract audiences, examples are: Superman,Hulk,Spiderman.The green Hornet,Batman,SWAT,Ocean's eleven etc,

  • @matatan69 ya and the remakes are like sooooooooo better cuz CG is awesome and 3D is da shitz. RaSpex.

  • @imdacoolestguy 3D is O.k. but the CGI are pathetic.I am sure your kids will laugh at you when CGI of the future will look the same as live actors.

  • @matatan69 Dude man da CGI IS SOOOOOOOOO Cool now, hey dude and no one laughs at ME, U GOT DAT? FUCKING NO ONE. Im cool & im a major up n comin rapper n hip hop star here in da coolest drunken party capital of da wholw world Ireland. SO U JUST WATCH WHO U IS SAYIN IS LAUGHIN AT ME. I know a friend who knows a guy who has a friend who knows one of 50cent's hoes. im like connected n shit. btw these old movies look cheap n faggoty. CGI ROCKS! RaSpex.

  • @matatan69 Hey the remakes of Batman and well only Ocean 11 were good.

  • @imdacoolestguy Why are you watching this video if you dont like it these are classics and Christopher Reeve is the best Superman actor to date if your not a Superman fan then don't bother coming on here saying it's shit when it isn't and by your poor grammar and your name being 'imdacoolestguy' you sound like a wanker. lol

  • @imdacoolestguy The shit you watch today is nothing but repeated garbage with zero plot or emotion. You can predict everything that happens.

    That's what your fucken granddad was talking about. Go watch the original Superman scene where the dude realizes Lois was fucken dead. Ever see that kinda shit in your modern day gay-ass flick? Didn't think so.

    Next?

  • @ProvinUWrong U sound gay.

  • @imdacoolestguy So do you, and that's why you and I spent the night together. You're a great kisser, and I love your tongue. Does anyone else on here know that you like men? mmmmmm

  • @imdacoolestguy what a fuckin fud!

  • wow I remember when I thought these special effects where great, LOL

  • I slag off new films because they're product placement exercises but I have to say it may have started with this film (much as I like this one). :)

  • The best Movie of Superman

  • Jor- El is god the father, Superman is Jesus Christ.....amazing parralels 

  • RIP Susannah York who played Lara, Superman's mother.

  • this is the BEST film out of them all . no.3 is ok as well

  • does anyone know where i can watch this free with no surveys caz i cant find any sites

  • hey guys was only good ones was superman(1978) superman ii (1980)

  • IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME!

  • gene hackman, love ya but youre not a good lex luther

  • Superman II was shown on Direct TV in Northeast Georgia about four months ago. Some idiot rehashed the scenes where Superman flies around the Earth to make it it go back in time to stop the arrival of Zod, Ursula, and Non. I hope they will never air that punk-assed, version ever again!

  • I saw this when I was 16 and I thought Ursa was HOT... hehehehe too bad Supermans' 3 and 4 stunk and the new superman was weak

  • I remember seeing Star Wars, Close Encounters and Superman when I was around 6 years old. I wonder if films these days have such an impact on young people, as they weren't churned out in those days.

    They were true blockbusters.

  • Best Super Movie HERO EVER with the BEST SUPER VILLAIN EVER !

    Son Of Jor-El ! KNEEL Before Zod !!!

  • So does having an evil Kryptonian throw Superman into your soda logo's sign increase or decrease sales?

  • The General FTW

  • i saw this movie three times when came out to the big screen.

  • This movie reminds me of Star Trek "Wrath of Khan"...The best movies out of a series....but still cheesy none the less.

  • This and superman returns are the best, one had bad cuts and animation for its time, 3 was just plane shit and four had a shoe string budget which handicapped all their screen shots special effects and the worst thing about iv was that reeves was gonna be nuclear man but the finances wouldnt allow it.

  • ata é o 2 foi mal desculpa pensei que fosse o 1 .

  • 1978

  • nao é 1978 correto.

  • "Oh, great one. What I am bargaining with is what YOU do not have: The son of Jor-El."

    "The son of Jor-El?"

    *confused* "I just said that."

    "Jor-El? Our jailer?"

    "No, Jor-El the baseball player. Yes, Jor-El your jailer."

  • I remember i was quietly doing my homework in the comfort of our house when suddenly this Superman 2 trailer flashed on our tv screen for the first time, i jumped out of my seat and started screaming at the top of my voice running here and there around the house because of joy and excitement! Minutes later, my 3 siblings joined me in jumping up and down! Oh how we love Christopher Reeve so much! No one can replace him in our hearts!

  • The 14 that dislike this have got to be evil Kryptonians

  • @mightykamina20000 thats it.

  • @mightykamina2009 Something tells me superman would lose the ballads if there was a real vote on whether zod or superman should win. Most would vote for zod and his crew. All the curruption in the world. But who's side is superman actually on if he upholds the law given by the very evil and currupt new world order? Think outside the box for a second. Superman is siding with the new world disorder!

  • 1 and 2 are good but 3 4 and five are wastes of time and money

  • @garethleslie123 I have been out of work for 5 months (had back surgery) I have been watching a lot of TV but the have been play all 4 movies and you are 100 % right.

  • General Zod vs Michael Douglas in Wall Street hehe

  • OH MY GOD!!!!!! it said it was made in 2006!!!!! in my tv setting!
