I love just about everything in this film, so it's hard for me to choose any absolutes. Instead, here are some of them that really made me cheer.
1) The opening titles. this was my first Superman film in the cinema, and when that theme came on, and those credits rolled, I was like "Yeah!!!" Kinda ticked they cut an entire stanza from Williams' music, though. Nevertheless, I felt like clapping when that happened.
2) The crash of Kal-El's spaceship on the Kent farm. Martha's reactions and Clark being so worn out...it worked, 100%.
3) Superman's meeting with Lois on the
Daily Planet roof, and their flight over the skies of Metropolis. It's a little too dark on the DVD (like some other select scenes), but I still grin my head off when I see it.
4) Jason figuring out Clark's secret; that kid was wheezing like crazy, and it was so hilarious. I laughed out loud when I saw that for the first time.
5)Richard and Lois discussing Superman and his history. I love Richard's line about the X-ray vision: "I'd have fun with that".
