  • Cristopher Reeve was born to play the Role of Superman, Looks wise, acting wise he was the perfect man for the role.

  • Who made this?Moron-it's Lex LUTHOR, with an O, not an E.

  • which of the superman actors die again coz I 4got

  • @TempzZNoVvA christopher reeve .

    

  • There is only one superman....... Christopher Reeves!!! No-one will ever take his crown.

    Be sure to check out the Jor-Els Wisdom soundboard app on iTunes... Search 'Jor-Els Wisdom'

  • Brandon Routh should be the new modern day Superman...Know he will fit this part better than anyone else at this time....He has the looks and has experience in acting in previous movie of Superman....Not understanding why they not choose him...

  • Brandon is gorgeous! They should make a second movie. It was amazing!

  • Sometimes, it's not about the actors. Like what @LostNbound said, it's about the story or the scripts. It's also about the director or the writer. Take a look at the movie 'The Happening'. Mark Wahlberg isn't exactly a bad actor but he sure did act like one because of the bad and shitty director (M. Night Shyamalan).

  • wow, nice!

  • i realy DONT like dise louis "kate"

    

  • Brandon Routh - Forever Superman

  • Routh Sucks and He don't even look like Superman.

  • @1991elmstreet Funny you say it - Brandon Routh look so similiar to Christoper Reeve it's amazing - even Dana Reeve gave her blessing to the natural succesor of her husband Superman.

    so take your hatred somewhere else - perhaps a shrink.

  • crherstopher reevf orever

  • wen u see Brandon as superman, it really feels like superman really returns for a very long time. Why is it dat people preferred Henry as a better superman just because of the actions and all the fighting? Of course, Brandon is capable of dat, only it wasnt directed in his movie. wen it comes to the looks Henry is too far from Brandon.

  • As a diehard comics buyer of the mid sixties-late seventies, Christopher Reeve had the perfect Curt Swan comics era-style Superman costume. Kirk Alyn would've been fine in 1948, had the unbelievable animation not taken over for the flying shots. George Reeves, my boyhood hero as Kal-EL, had a cape which should've been stitched close to the neck, but instead looked like a Roman soldier's garb. But this new guy looks like a lizard....bring back the traditional costume. Long live Chris Reeve!

  • I agree with Lightningfilm - Routh was too skinny... for one Superman settles in America so by now he'd be clinically and morbidly obese. He'd also be illiterate and keep missing his target, but instead kill all of his allies with friendly fire. Instead of flying he'd do the truffle shuffle and preach the word of fundamentalist Christianity from his trailer park whilst boning his sister (who's actually his mother)?

  • the movie didn't suck, it was more or less the pacing and the direction the story took after the climax, and of course the lack of action scenes where superman actually fought something

  • @Freshstyles00 watch?v=mNAx7yIjSRg&feature=fe­edu

    SELLING SUPERMAN RETURNS COSTUME !!!

  • Routh SUCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS­SSSS.....

  • Routh wasn't that good of a superman, he was good as a Clark, But he is just to skinny to play Superman. I couldn't ever really believe he was superman, i just kept thinking he is to skinny. Henry Cavill has the build of Superman. and i think he will play a great Supes. Routh looked like Spider-man in a superman costume to me.

  • Baby Routh was ridiculously miscast. Bearing a passing resemblance to Christopher Reeve does not a Superman make.

  • Why producers are not using this guy again for SUperman 3?????? I think he did it well in the movie and looks very similar to Christopher Reeve! They should keep Brandon Routh in the new one. Do they know what they are doing?????????????

  • That one and only hero that makes most of the children to believe in flying! Even dream of becoming Superman and fly! I want Brandon Routh to be in the next sequel! IF DC is not doing that... well, they are going to loose a lot of Superman die-hard-fans to buy the tickets!!!! Damn it DC! Do you know what you're doing?

  • Superman, I've watched the oldest version of George Reeves in black and white, later seen Christopher Reeves in cinema, and the latest Superman Returns with Brandon Routh. They were all GREAT!!! Like the song by "Five For Fighting - Superman" said... It's not easy, to be me! Superman is one of the hardest role to play! It's not just any superheroes, it's Superman! The one that brought about hope and symbolised peace and freedom. 

  • @TekWarLord George Reeves's versions is not the oldest. Kyrk Allen's was.

  • super man looks so cute : )

  • Lex Luthor, not Luther.

  • It isn't so much who plays him now as it is the drastic changes of this new guy's costume. The red trunks are gone.

  • @TheChiefExecutioner Yet the fans who complained about Routh's costume, with the trunks, are now singing the praises of Cavill's costume which has none. The colors are also much darker on Cavill's suit.

  • Thanks for sharing :)

  • Routh was a great Superman.. I am a fan

  • Comment removed

  • Okay he did an amazing job making the whole clark kent is different than superman thing believable!

  • i seriously think Brandon Routh did a great job in superman returns,he should be in the next superman movie and he looks so much like Christopher Reeve,he's great for the part! he's got the voice,body , hair...everything!! keep Routh in it ! Warner Brothers are making a mistake dumping Brandon for the role,he killed it when he said "i'm sorry i left you lois" that made the movie! and who the hell is this new guy playing superman? Brandon is the real superman.

  • Flouflaras

    

  • handsome guy :)

  • Brandon Routh in my opion wasn't fit enough to be superman..honestly he's scranny as ever...what is he a buck 80 wet lol

  • aron not wat to say

  • henry cavill sucks!!! bring back brandon routh!

  • @oehieze get your eyes checked.

  • @oehieze YES!!!

  • @oehieze How can you say that when the movie hasn't even come out yet?

  • why isnt brandon ruth coming back for the new movie ?

  • disappointed they chose Henry Cavill for the reboot...Brandon Routh did a good job...they are really making them superhero movies fucking boring like Dark Knight..

  • @newslash1000000 do you know why the last crew (the return) is not coming back on the "man of steel" ?

  • @sjmunoz yes I do...they should've changed the director who didn't prioritize the film...if the sequel was made, right now we still have the last crew doing probably the second sequel already..

  • @newslash1000000 I think brandon did a good job there.

  • @sjmunoz I know right, why change him if he was already accepted by people to be superman... Henry Cavill looks more like a villain than superman....he should've been General Zod or some shit...

  • @newslash1000000 its true man ! cavill does not have a superman face at all !

    anyways, some think brandon didnt have the superman attitude as cristopher's

    hey people ! it doesnt take an oscar winner to play superman !

  • But i liked SR anyway.

  • Seems like brandon looks stronger today than when he was doing SR. Just like Tom welling. 30 seems to be the perfect age to play superman, under you looks too young or skinny.

  • where is yellow S on red cape??? I miss it...

  • So should have got Gene Hackman back for this film. It would have given it that missing element as they couldn't have Christopher Reeve. BUt this guy is near on the double of Reeve.

  • Nice, I m looking forward for next part.

  • both Brandon Routh and Tom welling are my to supermans for this century

  • I WILL NOT WATCH ONE SECOND OF THE NEW "reboot"...

    moron studios will undoubtedly be more obsessed with blowing up buuildings and explosive titties and a good story or acting... BRandon Routh should've been superman... end of story... fuck you DC

  • brandon did an excellent job as superman in my opinion whether you think this movie sucks or not

  • this movie could have been a lot better with a good script and not the age old Lex having some brilliantly stupid idea to make money......

    with movies like Batman Begins and The Dark Knight.....i would rather like to see some really evil villian like Darksied....and a few character flaws in Supes which he overcomes...

  • eres un copion...

  • Hello everyone I'm Alessia and I write from Italy I would know the title of the music video and who plays it? Thanks to all

  • whats with the music?

  • its funny, cause routh's face as some lines similar to reeve's...

  • It was a decent movie... It felt kinda wierd with Smallville goin on at the same time and seeing Tom Welling do so well with the character. Other than that not bad.

  • I'm a hug e fan of superman, so anything they release I will watch - regardless how terrible it is. IMHO, this movie was not that bad. I wish people would stop comparing this to the originals, though. It's Hollywood, they're going to continue to reboot all comic book movies regardless of how successful the franchise may or may not be.

  • Scripts these days are much different from the old days but that isnt nessesarily a bad thing. i think they should have come at the movie from a primarily animation background and not focused so much on wires

  • I will NOT be seeing the new superman.. no matter how supposedly good looking their new guy is, nor the number of action scenes or exploding titties...

    Brandon Routh IS superman!

  • damn Bryan Singer. He screwed this up on purpose. Marvel paid him to do it. Brandon Routh and Kevin Spacey were great

  • @LucTito Bullshit!

  • Brandon did a real good job is Superman and really fit the character, but alot of people miss that because of the dislike of the film itself.

  • @LostNbound i agree

  • @LostNbound yh you go boy or girl! you tell them! jokes :P i agree...

  • @LostNbound

    Are you kidding me? Brandon did a good job? Are you crazy? He was HORRIBLE! He didn't even act, he just sort of... talked.... . And he as Clark Kent and Superman, there was no difference whatsoever.

    The only reason why they took him is because he looked sort of like Christopher Reeve, and when you see him, you do think of superman. But he is not an actor, thank god they are not making second movie with him.

  • @Ahil982 an actor is only as good as the director and script lets him be. I'm not saying he's the only person who could ever be supes and Chris, but bryan singer is a shit director who wants to make comic kiddy movies. i'm just saying Brandon got a bad wrap for the movie, but if he'd had a good scrpit, not just some hack bullshit of the orginal superman movie, and a good director the movie as a whole would've been epic with him as superman. and no kate bosworth either.

  • Brandon is the only person in this world who looks like Christopher Reeve. I will miss him alot!

  • I really liked Brandon Routh as Superman. But what I really hated was all the piss-pour CGIs of him. Hell, many of the flying scenes from Superman (1978) look more real. Why oh why Mr. Singer, did you make that choice?

  • He is one of the best Superman so far too. His look and body is almost perfect.

  • thank you and you are still here...i miss superman movies...pls...get a part 2,3,4,5............ariba....

  • this movie was utter garbage, they should be ashamed for even putting this out. they should have scrapped this like they did with most of the original Superman 2. The cg effect from Smallville are just as good as this movie, trust me that is not saying much at all. I am very interested to see what happens with the re-boot. Brandon however did a decent job here. but lol cmon Lois's child being supermans at the end that's just lol. As bad as Bane looking like a punk in the batman movie with Arnold

  • @TheDevilish420..Couldn't agree more, the script, the directing, and some of the acting was abit poor.

    Only thing that was good was Brandon. Kate Bosworth's acting was awkward, Superman having an illegitimate child is beyond stupid, it was just abit too dark for my liking. Watching the Christopher Reeve movies growing up, they were always abit more light hearted. This was abit too dark, Kevin Spacey was great though.

  • @narcisistichater I still think Reeve was the PERFECT fit for this role... it's obviously a real challenge for these new hollywood takes on comic book characters-- in one fell swoop he took the character of Clark Kent and made him shine. As superman, he was just perfect for it... RIP Christopher Reeve: we all miss you, bro!

  • Why did they screw up the colour correction in the movie.

  • Routh should have been brought back for the reboot.

  • @AgentFortyS3v3n That wouldn't make it a reboot...

  • @AgentFortyS3v3n WHOS GONNA BE IN NEXT MOVIE??

  • 1:58 what's up with cyclops in this movie????

  • tom welling is the best superman there is

  • some one please tell me wht's song is it tht being played instrumentally in the beginning of this video? btw, yeah. Brandon Routh is the nearest to be the next perfect superman actor after the late Reeve. and who in the blue hell is this Henry Cavill? a gay? damn~

  • the new guy is gonna be gay

  • It's Luthor...not Luther

  • brandon routh <3

  • Shame that he will not be casted in the new superman: man of steel which I think will be the best superman ever with Zack Snyder directing and Christopher Nolan helping him.

  • @robster4ever yes shame on them, brandon routh is the best option ther is and very good looking and charismatic person but these producers dont know what ther missing

  • I still wish Brandon was in the next Superman. Shame.

  • Personally, despite how thee movie did etc, really like Brandon and thought that he was the spiritual successor and I feel bad he will not be in the "REBOOT".

  • i think hes to small to play superman as hes ment ta be huge other than that he was good maybe a bit geeker as clark to lol

  • Singer choked this film. BOO!

    

  • He did a good job. They should've brought him back.

  • What is the title of this song? I tried to search for the band ultrababyfat but couldn't find it.

  • wait aint that the guy from scott pilgrim the vegan guy hell yea it is hes a good ass actor

  • I heard that his package was so huge, that they had to digitally dehance it in those tights to protect the kids from exposure to cock.

  • @StevenJKpower that was true....

  • no smallville is better tom shou;ld have been superman not ruthe!

  • hi ,,,,, brandon.

    you know

    I LOVE YOU SO MUCH

    YOUR MY ONE

    AND ONLY HERO

  • hi ,,,,, brandon.

    you know

    I LOVE YOU SO MUCH

  • super man is very amazing

    he is the one and only

    hero in my life!!!

    good job brandon!...

    ^_^

  • HE US VERY AMAZING.................

  • If I was asked to have played Superman in this movie I would have walked around with that suit all day, every day on set and home.

    But I didn't really like this movie that much. But I hope that they will make another one and that it will be a lot better.

  • i love u brandon....

  • he is so beautiful :))

  • EL ES MI HEROE FAVORITO LEO 21DC

  • oh yea and as for the emotional connection in SR i think they tried TO HARD with is why it lacked the BIG punches despite the disagreements though i still liked brandon untill i see the new guy and see how he does CAN THE DIRECTOR BUT KEEP SUPERMAN

  • haha all im saying guys is that the new superman makes me nervous cause even in the Justice leauge cartoons (nerd) lol he's seen as a big guy, and i understand camera angles will help but cmon in smallville tome welling is 6'3 or 6'4 you not very many ppl tower over him in the show just saying it mite be weitd if they get him facing off against a big villian or standing next to some random person not many people tower over the nerdy clark kent..............just saying lol

  • Comment removed

  • well i've seen the new actor playing superman, and i do like Brandon Routh much better, has the size the look superman has always been a big guy and im kindaworried withthis new guy(whos only 6'1)i think if they would of kept Routh for this next one coming out every one would of seen more of a dynamatic in his actingthat everyone saidhe was lacking because after Superman Returns i think we all know were going to be seeing alot more action in the new one instead of just the plain and machine gun.

  • @4Blobert4

    Wow! He's only 6'1?! Well.......that shall look interesting.

  • Brandon Routh played Superman too soft & squishy and overly sensitive. Whether he was told to do this by the director, I don't know. The main problem with "Superman Returns" is that we have yet ANOTHER Lex Luthor story, played to death in the other movies and on TV. The Superman comics had wonderful stories about him going to other planets, out-thinking and fighting fearsome, violent aliens, etc. He was also half of the famous "World's Finest" team of Superman and Batman...great stories there!

  • this superman was over-thought, over-directed, over-written, and over-computer CGIed. they also should have:

    * quit trying to overcomplicate EVERY story line! It seems like most movies are this way anymore. So many elements are added to a story that the meaning is lost.

    And I agree-Kill off the damn kid

  • superman lost his supply of roids so he lost? :(((

  • this was beautiful!! perfect music for the "man of steel". and omg!, what a catch

    Brandon Routh is! Perfect for the part. Yes, i grew up with Christopher Reeves, but this guy is a new young fresh face, and very handsome!

  • Ok considering superman daws his powers from the sun but yet somehow made it to where scientist believed krypton was? How he did that I would like to know! No sun no power he becomes human right? And he was only away for 5 years? Any answers welcome! And another thing! Clarks mum died if you watched superman 3! That bloke who tried to buy the Kent farm said sorry to hear about his mum who died. But surprise she's in superman returns! Confusing! Anyway hopefully the next superman movie out in De

  • @DELBOY01509 superman returns follows on superman I and II that's why his mum is still alive.

  • @DELBOY01509

    Superman Returns is plotted AFTER Superman II. Which means......He had his space ship in the barn, and I'm sure a couple other crystals to make it back to Krypton's floating remains. You obviously didn't pay good attention.

  • Brandon Routh is gorgeous...I really liked the movie. Needed improvement..yes..more action no?

  • Superman Returns is what I like to call a "trailer movie" The best part of the movie was in the trailer, and that's all the movie was, was that airplane scene.

  • @iamspid3rman

    Really? You're not much of a Superman lover are ya? The entire movie was excellent. Sure it lacked on action but has superman never been much of a run, jump, punch the baddies, give a monotone line kinda guy. THAT would be Batman.

  • @Furingia You're fan love for Superman is blinding your judgment.lol The movie was garbage, that's why Brandon Routh,and that idiot director got canned and they're doing a new one.

  • @iamspid3rman

    And your hate for Superman blinds your room for making a connection to the movie on an emotional level. (Or you lack all emotion which would make perfect sense) As for fan love, I don't have fan love. I don't just love the movie because it's superman(cause i'm far more proCK than proSuperman himself anyways). I bet you never saw the older ones, did you? No. you didn't. For you wouldn't be saying it was garbage if you knew the story BEFORE Superman Returns.

  • @Furingia lol wrong again! I actually grew up with the old school Superman where he actually turned animated when he decided to fly all the way to awesomeness of Christopher Reeves bud. There was little to no emotion in the film, which is why it pissed me off so much. But i guess we agree to disagree mon ami!

  • Comment removed

  • @iamspid3rman

    Emotional CONNECTION with the film. Not the emotion IN the film.

  • @Furingia Must have forgotten to put connection after the emotion,lol which makes the film even worse. haha

  • @iamspid3rman  As I sat through it I felt such a sence of deja vu...so many lines, scenes, and themes lifted from the firt Superman movie...how about a NEW villain for the new movie...??

  • Re facha el culiado

  • Brandon Routh = worst Superman ever

    Bryan Singer = worst Superman director ever....his direction is an abomination

    As for the writers and the rest of the cast, they all should be locked away for being so disgustingly pathetic.

  • @1980Triumph WoW really ? This movie wasnt that bad. I enjoyed did.

  • Is hard to accept new guys when we grew up with reeve but quite a descet job this guy did

  • @joeriginal I agree. Reeve was the man who really made the kids jump from couch to couch with a blanket cape while humming the theme song. Routh was actually one of the better things that has happend to the franchise. The only sad thing about Superman Returns is that I never saw Superman lay a punch on anyone compared to all of the other movies! HAHA! Brandon was good but Chris will always be the REAL Superman of the movie and real world!

  • @BryanRiel I totally agree. Chris will always be the BEST Superman ever! But I loved Brandon so much as the next Superman, I wish WB would've given them another chance, I know that movie would've been amazing.

  • Thank you for this lol :)

  • Wow , they cast one of the jonas bros as superman

  • The film was ok... It wasn't the same as Christopher Reeves will always be Superman to me .. but this guy does pull it of and and so I say Welcome back Superman.

  • Bryan singer... I hope that u rott in hell 4 this movie

  • That was almost as lame as the movie... Almost... The only decent scene in the movie was the airplane scene. I agree the costume was lame too. It's supposed to have red not maroon! The evil twin of Superman in Superman 3 wore maroon. The director was the same douchebag that effed up the first Xmen movie. And what the hell is up with the old school heroes like Superman and Indiana Jones turning into deadbeat dads?

  • @GeoGarcia10 agree with you there, the airplane scene was the best part!

    i slept through the rest of it.

  • the suite was horrid and where was supers logo on the cape ????

  • he looks like chuck

  • oh how beautiful. th creation of a true Work of Art.

  • me gusta esa cansion como se llama???

  • worst superman movie ever...

  • @siliconsurf now... lets see... what makes you say that? I mean... including me and many other people thought this film was great...

  • @siliconsurf you completely KILLEd you own credibility by saying this... there is NO superman in existence WORSE than superman IV

  • @oehieze supercock returns is the worst

  • CHRISTOPHER REEVE PASSED THE TORCH TO BRANDON ROUTH :-)

  • @longlivereeverouth Tom Welling make 35 accounts

  • @longlivereeverouth no he passed the torch to tom welling

  • @longlivereeverouth and from him it should have gone to tome welling

  • @longlivereeverouth sorry, Christopher Reeve passed the torch to Tom Welling on Smallville

  • @2Good2BeTrue45 listen i love tom and smallville and he was a great clark kent, reeves was on the show and everything and it was great but brandon really embodies superman like reeves, everytime i see brandon as superman, i think of reeves and i think reeves would've passed him the torch had he still been alive when this movie was made

  • Christopher is a man. This guy is a pop-boy...

  • You know it's really funny. With all the fancy special effects they have in the movies today it's funny they fly Superman on wires. It looks a bit phoney. Go back to the 50s and get that counterbalance rig George used and don't foget the springboard and the ladder and the bar outside the windows. Would look a lot better. You could go from ground to air in one continuous movement. Get the guy off the stupid wires!

  • and wtf, gay ass music..makes me feel so dam cheesy..squinch squinch
