Superman (1978) - French opening with child speech

[hankaaron1961]

When I brought the director's cut may years ago I had a supisicion that the whoosh sound was different. That's because I had a very clear memory of how sounded in 1978. Glad to hear a clean version of the original opening. I think they went a little too excessive with the remaster.

i wonder if they will use this intro with the Superman reboot, the one with Russell Crowe playing Jor-El, and Henry Cavill playing the Man of Steel, Superman!

So far this is the only version I have found with the whoosh sound in it for the Superman sign as intended thanks for posting this should have more hits welldone.

This IS THE ORIGINAL way it was sound tracked, before they remastered it to up to date.. I can tell, especially the sound effects was used when the showed the S logo,and rest of the credit names, It was just how I'd remembered it so long ago.

I pray and hope that this video does not get deleted, the sound quality of this one owns the rest on YouTube!!!!!

I LOVE THIS SOUND VERSION BETTER!!!

tellement de souvenirs j'avais 7 ans

I know YouTube used to have the original sound track, not the new bad 5.1 sound, but the one that used to be on here sounded better than this one, but this one is the closest the original as possible.

It's the sound of the original track (and not the bad new 5.1). That's the reason why it sounds good. ^^

[nobodysperfect06]

yeah, the VHS quality sounds much better than the DVD sound, the swoosh sound starting at 1:47 is the best part of the intro

[nobodysperfect06]

I love the sound quality on here compared to the others

le meilleur film de super-héros!

[AlexMysterium]

Faut absolument que je me rachete les VHS des deux premiers Superman !

Les deux plus grands films adaptés de comics et de BD !

Yes dubbing, spatialization and noises are horrible in the new french track.

Hopefully Warner has released the theatricul cut with the true french dubbing after finding the rights.

Sûr que la nouvelle piste VF 5.1 est plutôt ratée de tous les côtés, aussi bien au niveau du doublage que des bruitages. Heureusement que Warner a fini par retrouver les droits du theatricul cut et que nous ayons pu retrouver la VF d'origine.

@tuntia C clair ! la seule et unique vf !! Francis lax qui double Hackman, Arditi qui double Reeve...Enorme , irremplaçable...Mon seul regret : que la piste (mono!) d origine ne soit pas "restaurable"... ce qui laisse ce coté criard ,aggressif et aigu...mais plutôt ça que leur VF pourrie en 5.1, même si techniquement meilleure !

[franckbass]

@franckbass You're right ! So great the one and only french version! Francis lax dubbing Hackman, Arditi dubbing Reeve..Irremplaçable ! unique! my only regret: impossible to restore the original (mono) track ! (bad sound and spacialisation)...but better to watch it like this OR in Original version, than watching the crapy 2000 french 5.1 dubbing, even if techniquely better

[nobodysperfect06]

@franckbass I hope they use this music in the Henry Cavill Man Of Steel movie

[darrellkaiser11285]

Oh, thanks a million! The French track is not the 5.1 version that has the overly loud swishing noises

Un film culte!
