World Superman Quest for Peace FIGHT!!!!!

Oh God, OH GOD!!! No, not that clip again...it's awful...it's hideous, Clive Mantle as Nuclear, the music, the wirework, the sound effects. NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
 
wow...I didn't think the movie could get much worse...but that'd do it for sure.

And that music...what. the. hell? It's like the soundtrack to an acid trip...

ugh.
 
I believe the music was temp music. Still a very horrible scene though. Poor Christopher looks so bored. :csad:

I know, but it still cuts through me...and so the nightmares begin!
 
That was hilarious! "Nuclear Man" looked like a groovy Frankenstein. I'm guessing this was the character before the one we got in the final cut? Either way, it sucks. I hate to make fun of Chris, but I'm sure he had to be a part of these character designs because IV was pretty much his story.
 
Wow....and I thought Superman IV was bad before, but that was terrible. Also, what was up with that music? I was half expecting a giant orgy.

actually there were originally two Nuclear Men.
 
Thank God that never made the cut. The theatrical version was (dare I say it?) better than this crap....
 
I swear, it's like a made-for-TV Superman. Even Reeve's wig is terrible.
 
I watched it again, with sound this time though. That had to be a joke...

That is Nuclear Man #1. The one that is in the theaterical version is Nuclear Man #2. Watch it and look for these scenes. That girl that is in that scene, well you do see her in the theaterical version. Why is she not surprise by Superman? They look like the seen each other before. Ok, another scene when Lex and Lenny are working in darkness with the light shinning just on them. The goop that Lex has, that is from Nuclear Man #1. Superman knock Nuclear Man #1 into a light pole so hard it turn him into the goop that Lex has in that scene with Lenny. Nuclear Man #1 was unstable. Ok, when Nuclear Man #2 arrives, Why isn't Lex surprise by his presents? Could it be that there was another Nuclear Man?

The movie was good but it didn't have a great budget as the other movies. That is why the movie bomb. It had very poor special effects.
Personally, I am glad that we do get to see the famous scene and also glad that is isn't part of the movie as well. That scene has been talked about for years. Only clues and photos of it has appear but we do get to see it like it or not. Yes, it may made the movie worst but finally we see what it looks like. I think that it should of been out of the light for years but not part of the movie itself. They did the right choice of putting it in the deleted scenes.

Only two scenes has been seen with the movie and they are:
Superman saves Moscow from a nuclear bomb, which Nuclear Man ignited.
A girl is saved by Superman during a tornado created by Nuclear Man.

They was shown on TBS back in the late 80s and early 90s. Which I think they are part of the deleted scenes as well.

That and it was horribly written. I'm still wondering why Mariel Hemmingway was able to breathe in space, let alone nearly FALL.
 
This is what I said in the other thread:

No, it's horrible and it can't be fixed in any way.

Trust me! It can be fixed. If I had the proper equipment in my house I could fix it. And, this is how:

1) Speed up the action. It takes too long for them to do something. I would speed it up Peter Hunt style.

2) Use good sound effects.

3) Better music! Music that is exciting, suspenseful, and action-packed.

Trust me...it can be fixed.

can you fix the whole movie for us if you get the chance ??? :woot: :oldrazz:
 
That was pretty creepy. The sad thing is that there was more action in the 2 minute clip then in all of SR.
 
im pretty sure that in one shot before reeve hits the car, its a stunt double?
am i right?

anyways, its not that bad

the only problem is the guy playing nuclear man 1 is making stupid faces

if they just made him act seriously it would have been better

nevertheless, we are still missing the lifting of a skip and a car by superman, there are pictures of reeve lifting a skip up in the air and also a car,

so these are missing

still, great to see some new reeve footage this year,

especially the donner cut of s2 awesome!

What about the crap choeography, the crap special effects, Reeve's crap wig, crap sets, crap dialogue?
 
^ So Kev, did you find that scene crap at all? :D
 
the music is indeed creepy, its from an old BBC kids show in the UK, you can probably download from somewhere.

probably due to the fact most of the movie was filmed in the UK,

and Nuclear man 1 is british actor Clive Mantle who was on the Hospital drama "Casualty",

has anyone seen the frying pan stuck to Mantles privates during his birth in superman 4? i bet people are glad that they didnt keep that in the movie!
