How Lois can continually overlook Clark, I'll never understand it. He may come off as awkward and clumsy, but those glasses cannot begin to hide how much of a SNACK that man is.
i think glasses makes us look better ,well at least in my case......i hope, wait does that sound egoinstic? I hope not, because that's not what i wanted it to came out like......wait , can you start rubling in text form? I better shut up before i mess something up, i hope you get what i meant, bye.
Cosmic Syzygy honestly I just think this movie messed up making her married. Had she been single raising Superman’s kid she could hate Superman and actually not pay attention to him. But with Clark she could fall in love with him. It would have been very interesting seeing her be in love with Clark for once since that’s who he wants her to love rather than Superman.
Preston Hong Cavil is a young superman he hasn't mastered Clark Kent yet. Snyder's plan was have character development with superman but it was cut short.
Preston Hong No your wrong. Superman is the real guy and Clark is the mask. Just read the comics and you will see. Superman dying comes straight out of the comics and that a young superman felt alone and isolated at times until he met people like batman. Superman was a loner until he found friends like the justice league........ you realize he actually had friends in smallville and when he left he was all alone. The comics handled Clark coming back to the daily planet after dying too. I'm summarizing my thoughts cause my device is about to die
When you realize the boy doesn't really have ashma, his body is just adjusting to earth's atmosphere because he's part kryptonian. And as he grows he'll probably be hearing thing from great distances, seeing through walls and eventually getting his super strength, flight and other kryptonian abilities.
Oh ,man that was such a great scene. You can literally feel Clark's jealousy when Lois talks to Richard. I found it endearing, and sad at the same time that Lois always loved Superman but not Clark. Clark Kent was the nerdy socially awkward guy but Superman was the masculine , confident guy that Lois was attracted too.
Lois was alway smart that she figured out that Clark was superman. Christopher Reeves & Margot Kidders worked well on the whole bantering that the characters do. She never really ignores Clark, but here it’s like she doesn’t really care if Clark was gone for 5 years. Or that he is back.
@@jesskhan09 Its the number 1 issue I have with Superman Returns, which overall I really enjoy. Her and Clark were always good friends and fun rather she was onto him or not and that's just totally not evident in this one.

To be a good superman it's not enough to be a good looking muscular tall guy with dark hair, you need to be a good Clark Kent overall, and this is the best Clark Kent I've ever seen since the late Christopher Reeve. Brandon did an awesome job here.
@@alyssabrown6877 Well if you remember from the Christopher Reeves Superman movie when Lois found out Clark was Superman and i believe they had sex and he wiped her memory of him being Superman for her own protection. So it may add up to that bit so it's understandable

Our current Superman actor is like a more hardcore version. Brandon impersonate Superman as a whole. The hidden identity persona and unde the blue outfit. I have wondered by Brandon was never used for other superman tittles. He did an excellent job. Plus Superman returns place 5 keys abilities about superman. The hearing, bullets bouncing based on his steel body. Eyes heat radiation and the cold air, when putting out the fire. The last one is, the refulling escene with the sun
I've always hated how in most media they have Clark being ignored by Lois but being adored & worshiped by said woman when he's Superman, that kind of tells you what kind of person you're dealing with and on top of that, she either didn't know or really didn't want to see that Clark was clearly Superman. He deserves better & the whole Clark/Superman/Lois thing gets kind of old after 70+ years of it.
Well I don’t blame her. Clark and Sups have completely different personalities. Clark is shy and clumsy while Superman is strong and confident which is what gets most people’s attention. And since they’re the same person they obviously look alike so it just tell you that Lois ain’t in it for the looks
Awwww... I just really really loved Brandon Routh as Superman and Clark Kent. He was perfect as both. Edit: Just imagine Henry Cavill doing this scene. There's just no way he would have pulled it off like that. It's so natural to Brandon.
@@piccoloatburgerking Brandon is an amazing Clark Kent, but his Superman may be even stiffer than Cavill. Cavill embodied Superman more to me, he just needs the right script.
@@jonathonmyska3194 Awkward people like Clark exist in real life. There should be a difference between Superman and Clark that extends beyond the glasses.
Andre E I mean..... it’s still the same Lois. Not sure why that matters. I feel like you said that just to show off you know information that’s pretty much common knowledge
I don't know what it is but those exchanging looks between Lois and Clark at 3:24 and ESPCIALLY that innocent little wave that Clark gives is just too damn adorable! I cannot even begin to express how much I loved Brandon Routh as Superman. In my opinion, My next favorite Superman next to Christopher Reeve.
I think there was a non canon comic where superman had a son with lois..suoerman was captured by lex before the kid was born, and they only met when he was a teenager..the kid was also called Jon Kent
The look on his face at 1:22..hahaha "I want to drive your head through the wall, into the next city.." Nothing against Cavill, but this movie buries Man of Steel 6 ways to Sunday..
I feel that Routh carried over all he could of Reeves work. I found the whole movie bitter-sweet for missing reeves and enjoying Routh's portrayal. to me this film completes the movies I grew up with(Reeves).
HomeGirl That's probably what happened when the man she loves just took off & left without saying good bye she lost that spunk & to top it off she just found out she was pregnant & planned to tell him.
r0bw00d I have to agree with the other guy. Brandon Routh portrayed the role like he was possessed by Christopher Reeve himself. While Bosworth as Lois Lane was like a totally different person from Margot Kidder as Lois Lane.
@@RealFanOfSteel I have to agree. I can see her softening as a mother, but she's far too young and soft spoken and not sharp or tough like Kidder Lois. Shes supposed to be the same character, so in that case it really is a problem.
Bryan Singer was a fan of Kate Bosworth even though she is clearly too young to play the part. I would have preferred Rose Byrne for the role of Lois Lane. She is the same age as Brandon Routh
I love the movie so much, even after all those years. That's why I made a SR wall clock for my home on my channel. This is the best movies I've ever seen and I know every line from it, it's crazy 🤣
This is my favorite movie--beautifully filmed--great acting and very touching. I loved the 78 version too and Superman Returns brings back all the emotions of the original. I don't want Superman to be a dark character--that's what makes him special as he's the epidemy of the good guy hero.
Such an underrated movie. Spacey was great, Routh was the Superman we all had been wanting, and you had a competent and believable Lois. Had this movie not have been plagued with rumors regarding the cast the director this Superman would have had a real chance to fly.
I was thinking the same thing! Clark is not registering as a romantic interest at all. He looks similar and is built exactly like that man youve been with for years and you just don't see him????
Always puzzled by some of the criticism I have seen Brandon Routh get for his performance. Things like 'he's trying to copy Christopher Reeeve'. It was supposed to be a direct sequel to Superman 2. With that in mind he's effectively being asked to be Christopher Reeve.
@@Karlebow571es she did that’s why she had no idea Clark was super man and kept looking over Clark as just a nerdy journalist or who the actual father was of her son. In the CW crossover event it was mentioned that at the end of this movie Clark and Lois got together and Jason becomes his legitimate son so Clark probably told Lois everything and they got together and married.
“It’s great to finally meet you - I heard SO.” •pleasantly surprised• “ Oh, you *have.* “ “Yeah - Jimmy just won’t shut up about ya!” •grins all round•
Captain Faggot Well through the years different illustrators based and varied depictions of Clark Kent so the present directors might have drawn inspiration based on the childhood comics they followed in casting calls.
@jonathanbirch2022 you don't try to play christopher reeves. Yes he resembles reeves but his job is to be superman Clark Kent. Everything is in the script. You've stated it correctly 'he resembles christopher reeves'. That's it. But his job isn't to be him if you get Me.
@jonathanbirch2022 what are you talking about you're a tool. Brandon Routh played in superman returns the wholes cast was different. They didn't have play form actors from the 70s they had to play the characters. You don't anything about film. Jesus christ.
The problem with this (and Christopher Reeve's Superman) is that he was Superman disguised as Clark - and he made Clark out to be a wimp (sort of a teen boy's fantasy of "if you knew who I really was, you'd be sorry!"). But later versions had the character being Clark Kent and Superman was just a role he played. THAT is the reason Lois never looked at Clark. She was never going to go for a stuttering man who never let her see him.
for super man is very hard to say goodbye to loise laine . super man is very humble when it comes with girls. i like when superman never tels to girls what he thinks. very humble man .
I think he played a better clark kent than Henry cavill but for superman , henry cavill for me. Sorry i was born with Christopher Reeves. So that didnt had an impact on me.
This Lois treats Clark like furniture. I actually find it cringe. The only time she really notices him & gives him a compliment is when he uses he's powers to get her a taxi. Red flag. In Christopher Reeves, it felt like she saw him as her work friend, at least respected him.
This is quite screwed up. If Lois got pregnant with Jason during their time in the Fortress in Superman II, then she doesn’t even remember sleeping with Superman since her memory got wiped. She has no reason to believe Jason isn’t Richard’s son
I really like this movie, I don't know why people hate it so much. Routh plays superman and Clark both so well. The only thing I hate in this movie is Lois lane, I mean it's quite apparent that she likes only superman and can't spare even a second for Clark and yet the fool can't see it.
So Clark just HAPPENS to come back from his trip and at the SAME TIME Superman RETURNS and nobody in a office full of REPORTERS finds that even remotely peculiar. OK then. Still extremely confused how Lois was not sure if Superman or whathisname was the father? I mean there would be time bw her heartbreak and a new bf? It all seems so weird unless Kryptonian pregnancies go unnoticed for longer periods of time atleast to humans.
Jasmine Crawford This is one of those decades old questions that the comics don't address. It's kind of like "how does a simple change of hairstyle and glasses fool millions?"
Jasmine Crawford Supposedly, the difference in behavior and personality is enough for reporters to dismiss the simultaneous return of Superman and Clark Kent as a coincidence. And Lois probably did know that Superman was her son’s father. Whether Richard knows is never said. Maybe after she found out she was pregnant Lois felt it necessary to disguise her son’s paternity, as she knew he would be targeted by Superman’s enemies.
I think I've always loved Brandon Routh's Reporter Clark the best out of all the cinematic Supermans. I mean Reeve is the best all round but his Clark is obviously a bit dated. Routh's Clark is quite adorably awkward, without being overly goofy. Cavill's Clark was too much like Superman to work as a proper disguise. His farm boy Clark with Martha and Jonathan Kent was more convincing.
I've kind of dissected the specific medicines that Jason takes since he's the son of Superman. Eye drops: Maybe because Superman has his heat vision, and doesn't want Jason to use it accidentally. Albuterol: It's used for preventing shortness of breath, and as seen in the ship scene, Jason starts breathing heavily while Lois is getting hurt, thus makes Jason use his powers. Maybe it's also Jason doesn't blow part of the house off from a sneeze due to him having Superman's super breath powers (don't know it there's an official term for it) Poly-vi-flor: Don't know what this could be used for that matches up with Superman's abilities, but it's used for infants and children who have a poor diet or low levels of fluoride.
''Oh hey Clark, welcome back, it's great to see you, you've gotta tell me what you've been up to the last 5 years. Before that though, fun fact, I was saved by Superman today, which was lucky cause he's not been around for....oh about 5 years!''
I know this is a lot to take in: But Clark and/or Superman has been gone for 5 years and never said, "Good-bye," but he didn't mean to, he just thought Krypton somehow survived its massive explosion. But by the time he got there, all he found was a pile of rubble and kryptonite
0:34 oh ya he’ll definitely be his fathers son alright. Note. Idk if it was intentional or not but when Lois said just like your father the camera was still on Clark giving us an early foreshadowing.
Richard is a good man. He deserves to have a happy life with Lois. If I was Clark "I'll try not to get upset, because it was my fault I left the woman who I love."
People dont realise that clark being clumsy isn't because he wants to blend in its because he's naturally strong and will easily break things around him when he's superman he is expected to be strong so no one thinks anything of it
I still like how Clark comes off as awkward, clumsy, but a guy with a heart of gold.

"Clark is... well he is Clark..."
Damn🤦♂️
Always puzzled by some of the criticism I have seen Brandon Routh get for his performance. Things like 'he's trying to copy Christopher Reeeve'. It was supposed to be a direct sequel to Superman 2. With that in mind he's effectively being asked to be Christopher Reeve.
Superman had a child with her, but she doesn't even suspect clark kent's real identity, so even the man of steel has his secrets
This movie is a direct sequel to Superman 2, and she knew his identity when they slept together in the fortress of solitude.
@@northwestalaska9074 didn’t she lose her memory on end of movie?
@@Karlebow571es she did that’s why she had no idea Clark was super man and kept looking over Clark as just a nerdy journalist or who the actual father was of her son. In the CW crossover event it was mentioned that at the end of this movie Clark and Lois got together and Jason becomes his legitimate son so Clark probably told Lois everything and they got together and married.
My fav and my childhood superman 😭
What’s crazier is that BATMAN has a son named Jason too. (Not biological, but still)
“It’s great to finally meet you - I heard SO.”
•pleasantly surprised• “ Oh, you *have.* “
“Yeah - Jimmy just won’t shut up about ya!”
•grins all round•
He is the more Superman than Henry Cavill
Captain Faggot Well through the years different illustrators based and varied depictions of Clark Kent so the present directors might have drawn inspiration based on the childhood comics they followed in casting calls.
He is twice the Superman than Henry Cavill is.
Rabi Singh Nah
I mean he was basically playing Christopher Reeve playing Superman.
Nah
He even sounds like Christopher Reeve.
It's not be Christopher reeves. It's to be Clark Kent. Why oldies cry for old actors. Move on get over it.
@jonathanbirch2022 you don't try to play christopher reeves. Yes he resembles reeves but his job is to be superman Clark Kent. Everything is in the script. You've stated it correctly 'he resembles christopher reeves'. That's it. But his job isn't to be him if you get Me.
@jonathanbirch2022 what are you talking about you're a tool. Brandon Routh played in superman returns the wholes cast was different. They didn't have play form actors from the 70s they had to play the characters. You don't anything about film. Jesus christ.
The best Clark Kent no doubt
They should of brought Brandon Routh back for another superman movie he plays the character just like Christopher Reeve
They did on Crisis on Infinite Earths.
3:39 he sounded so much like Christopher Reeve there👀
That child really have a power like Superman
The problem with this (and Christopher Reeve's Superman) is that he was Superman disguised as Clark - and he made Clark out to be a wimp (sort of a teen boy's fantasy of "if you knew who I really was, you'd be sorry!"). But later versions had the character being Clark Kent and Superman was just a role he played. THAT is the reason Lois never looked at Clark. She was never going to go for a stuttering man who never let her see him.
for super man is very hard to say goodbye to loise laine .
super man is very humble when it comes with girls.
i like when superman never tels to girls what he thinks. very humble man .
I think he played a better clark kent than Henry cavill but for superman , henry cavill for me. Sorry i was born with Christopher Reeves. So that didnt had an impact on me.
Reeves and Routh follow Silver Age Clark, while Cavill's Clark is the Post-Crisis version.
I agree
He is such a good Superman, one of the best. But how come he has super hearing yet he didn't hear his own son who was stood right next to him?
Lois: "he's a little fragile, but, he's going to grow up to be big and strong, just like his dad"
Clark's face
Little did he know…
This Clark is so cute
Brandon Routh also great Superman
Brandon took the torch from Chris.
Indeed he did.
Yeah Chris reeves was amazing superman
This Lois treats Clark like furniture. I actually find it cringe. The only time she really notices him & gives him a compliment is when he uses he's powers to get her a taxi. Red flag. In Christopher Reeves, it felt like she saw him as her work friend, at least respected him.
True
Why she cuts off his sentences? It's the second time Louis!!!
radiohead tv *Lois
This is quite screwed up. If Lois got pregnant with Jason during their time in the Fortress in Superman II, then she doesn’t even remember sleeping with Superman since her memory got wiped. She has no reason to believe Jason isn’t Richard’s son
Out of all the Superman movies, this 2006 Superman is the only one I remember most of the scenes although I watched other ones as an adult.
Brandon Routh is a gem, truly the best superman to inherit Chris Reeves Mantle. its sad he didnt do sequels.
3:21 Imagine Clark Kent quickly flies away lmaooo
The moment Superman should be like his Earth 3 self at this moment......
Brandon Routh was the cutest Clark and Serious Superman...
Henry cavill is Dark Clark and Dark Superman.
I really like this movie, I don't know why people hate it so much. Routh plays superman and Clark both so well. The only thing I hate in this movie is Lois lane, I mean it's quite apparent that she likes only superman and can't spare even a second for Clark and yet the fool can't see it.
gettagarip.... the character was w r i t t e n this way in t h i s movie.
@@billhosko7723...yeah, pretty much she knows that Brandon was handsome because when they were in the hospital that kiss was deep!
So Clark just HAPPENS to come back from his trip and at the SAME TIME Superman RETURNS and nobody in a office full of REPORTERS finds that even remotely peculiar. OK then. Still extremely confused how Lois was not sure if Superman or whathisname was the father? I mean there would be time bw her heartbreak and a new bf? It all seems so weird unless Kryptonian pregnancies go unnoticed for longer periods of time atleast to humans.
Jasmine Crawford This is one of those decades old questions that the comics don't address. It's kind of like "how does a simple change of hairstyle and glasses fool millions?"
Symone Plus all the times Clark and Superman are inexplicably never anywhere at the same time ever. Like wyd Lois, you're a Pulitzer Prize winner.
Jasmine Crawford Supposedly, the difference in behavior and personality is enough for reporters to dismiss the simultaneous return of Superman and Clark Kent as a coincidence.
And Lois probably did know that Superman was her son’s father. Whether Richard knows is never said. Maybe after she found out she was pregnant Lois felt it necessary to disguise her son’s paternity, as she knew he would be targeted by Superman’s enemies.
I think she knew Jason was Superman's son
@@leonardohenrique5172 sure. She tells Superman that fact in hospital.
I think I've always loved Brandon Routh's Reporter Clark the best out of all the cinematic Supermans. I mean Reeve is the best all round but his Clark is obviously a bit dated. Routh's Clark is quite adorably awkward, without being overly goofy. Cavill's Clark was too much like Superman to work as a proper disguise. His farm boy Clark with Martha and Jonathan Kent was more convincing.
I've kind of dissected the specific medicines that Jason takes since he's the son of Superman.
Eye drops: Maybe because Superman has his heat vision, and doesn't want Jason to use it accidentally.
Albuterol: It's used for preventing shortness of breath, and as seen in the ship scene, Jason starts breathing heavily while Lois is getting hurt, thus makes Jason use his powers. Maybe it's also Jason doesn't blow part of the house off from a sneeze due to him having Superman's super breath powers (don't know it there's an official term for it)
Poly-vi-flor: Don't know what this could be used for that matches up with Superman's abilities, but it's used for infants and children who have a poor diet or low levels of fluoride.
Yeah, she was suppressing his abilities
''Oh hey Clark, welcome back, it's great to see you, you've gotta tell me what you've been up to the last 5 years. Before that though, fun fact, I was saved by Superman today, which was lucky cause he's not been around for....oh about 5 years!''
4:45 Mountain dew advertised on top of the taxi
"He's gonna be big and strong just like his dad"
the foreshadowing
I know this is a lot to take in: But Clark and/or Superman has been gone for 5 years and never said, "Good-bye," but he didn't mean to, he just thought Krypton somehow survived its massive explosion. But by the time he got there, all he found was a pile of rubble and kryptonite
Brandon Routh as a Superman...Henry Cavill as a Superboy XD
Chains23 Walang forever This comment 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Nice. Clark I m Supergirl thank u
0:34 oh ya he’ll definitely be his fathers son alright.
Note. Idk if it was intentional or not but when Lois said just like your father the camera was still on Clark giving us an early foreshadowing.
"I don't care if the instructions are in Russian". But Russian subtitles say "in Chinese" ahahaha
I love how little does he know that's his son that he just met
Richard is a good man. He deserves to have a happy life with Lois. If I was Clark "I'll try not to get upset, because it was my fault I left the woman who I love."
The dog understood that whistle.
Bring him back as Superman pls...
It would have been great if this Superman was in the same universe of the Nolan’s Batman
I love this
THIS IS MY FAV SUPERMAN TBH 😭😭😭😭
People dont realise that clark being clumsy isn't because he wants to blend in its because he's naturally strong and will easily break things around him when he's superman he is expected to be strong so no one thinks anything of it
3:32 That is so cool the little Globe lights up when the elevator stop on the next floor.
I love this guy as superman
A human-kryptonian hybrid is fragile? Ok, Lois.
1:22 - Uh-oh somebody's jealous
Jealous that he’s holding his son.
@ethanrogers3528 but he doesn't know that the boy is his
