"My reputation's at stake."

Whose? Lex Luthor's or Gene Hackman's?

That was weird. I've never seen the movie, so I have no idea what I just saw. Was that a spoof done with clever editing, or was that goofy Frankenstein monster guy in the movie?

All his scenes were cut from the movie after a really bad test screening.

He's still in the Superman IV comicbook adaptation. I remember buying it as a child and being like, "Uh, wut? This guy wasn't in the movie..."

Always cool to see new Reeve footage - a couple of questions, though...

Is ths where the Dick in a Box guys got their inspiration?

Did Burger King and American Express find other scenes in which to place their product?

Wow! Three bits of obvious product placement in a single joke fight scene. Burger King, Yoohoo, and American Express.

That was miles better than the Superman IV clip, which just about epitomized damnation by faint praise.

The production values on that Superboy clip appear to be about on-par with the leaked Wonder Woman pilot footage.

One being a low-budget first run syndicated program, the other being a network pilot by a respected show runner... that's kind of sad.

That Wonder Woman looks like she's killing people.

Seriously, I don't think I'd let my little kid watch a superhero that has a habit of lassoing people around the neck.

Yeah, for real. If you're gonna go ultraviolent, don't pair it with the fun camptastic '70s theme music!

Wow, they went back in time and altered Superboy to be much cheesier than I remember.
