I think this Lex is another Lex from the multi-verse. He said his earth was destroyed didn’t a few earths get destroyed by the anti-monitor. Man if it’s a Michael Rosenbaum’s Lex I’m gonna be so fucking stoked
@@Dispaminite I was thinking similar. I think Jordan will have the Heat vision, and some resistance to damage, but I think the actual super strength will go to Jonathan
As another HUGE Smallville fan, this pilot BLEW me away. It sort of feels like what Smallville could have become after the "no tights, no flights" rule that show had. It's full of heart and hope and family. It feels nostalgic and fresh all at the same time. And yes, the budget is great and the effects are awesome, but for me it's this story that's got me 100% invested. I love seeing Clark and Lois being parents and also struggling with being parents. I love that the boys have their stereotypical quirks, but yet they're also fiercely protective of each other. I love that Ma Kent wants Clark to be a vulnerable, loving, and present man. That's such an important message for young (and old) men to see. To see the most powerful being in the universe also have emotions and the space to feel and express those emotions in a real and important way, is SO beautiful. I'm also very excited to have a portrayal of Lois Lane that isn't in need of constant saving and protection. I haven't loved a Lois Lane other than Erica Durance's for that very reason. She may not have the super powers, but she's no damsel in distress and she's just as much a hero in her own right. I'm so jazzed about this series!
Actually my thought was he’s from the future? He talks about having a history with this Kal-El, that doesn’t age like humans, plus if they really don’t want to make it necessary for viewers to watch all the convoluted Crises/Arrowverse stuff being from the future is far cleaner, no?
@@langleymneely I like what there are possibilities that are endless at the moment, but yes, the future is cleaner and an easier pill for new viewers to swallow for sure.
I feel this is the perfect show for these times. It’s hopeful, beautifully cinematic, action packed, relevant and respects the source material very well.
You are seeing Superman at two entirely different points in his life it's not fair to judge. Cavill is Superman for less than 2 years, this Superman has been around for a couple of decades. Of course he epitomizes Superman more. The idea with Cavill was to show you how he got to be this Superman. What lead up to it? How is he being molded by his experiences. He hadn't embraced his role in the world yet. It's the same Superman. It's like judging a book by only reading two chapters. Same with Batman. Bale and Affleck are the same Batman at different points. "You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain." Batman has lived long enough to become what he was fighting against. All Batmans are headed toward the dark path if given enough time. I feel like it's unfair to compare the two version, other than them being the same character. I love this show already. They do Superman really well, but I also love Superman that is just beginning and finding his place. There is room for both versions.
@@itsalwayssomething7490 You have a point. Now that you say it like that it makes sense. I keep forgetting Supes is kinda "old" here but tyler looks so young.
@itsalwayssomething7490 It's not about who's been superman longer did you even watch the clip? The beginning of the series literally showed Tyler's superman day 1 acting like the classic superman like when he gave the hat to the boy and said my mom made it for me.( Adapted from Superman all season comics) That's superman not the depressed buzzaro edge lord of snyders flop garbage adaptation.
This was FANTASTIC!!! I was literally blown away! They pay homage to everything (Christopher Reeves, the comics, even the animated series and Smallville). Tyler Hoechlin is excellent. What he lacks in muscles and height (he’s honestly the smallest Superman in that regard), he makes up for in his embodiment of the character and embraces who Clark Kent is in an organic way. Everyone else is great as well! definitely excited for what’s next!
@@anasbensidi181 but at least Cavill has the muscles. That’s why I said muscles and height, cause he’s wearing a clear as day padded suit lol. and Reeves has to be included with Routh and Welling.
That pause at Martha's door, being unable to directly look at his mother after supreme effort from a man who can go to the heart of nuclear plant going on meltdown; what a tearjerker of a shot! It says Superman can't do everything with his powers, twice in one episode in fact.
I really hope this episode is a legitimate representation of the series. Because it was amazing. I'm so tired of the CW format, but this was completely different. I really hope it's like this the whole time.
This has been my fear since this & the great Stargirl were shunted over to CW. Both of these shows excel because of their budgets & limited (hopefully) episode runs. 22 or even 18 episodes is too much for these shows.
I adore that they've decided to do a different story with Superman. So often it's just retread after retread after retread... but this is new, and it fits. And they just need 5, 10 minutes to recap the story almost everyone knows already... and in a compelling, emotional way. Just... bang up job.
Im so happy with how they handled the brothers, Not overly mean to each other but also not dry/numb to each other. They tease and jab each other while showing that they do love one another, they are very believable brothers.
the show pretty much took the best of every previous superman adaptation and combined it for this new take and its pretty cool. the action and cinematography is very man of steel and you can get a sense of that donner dna throughout the show as well.
The recreation of the cover of Action Comics #1 made my heart skip a beat, and then when he smiled big at the kid and said "My mom made it for me", I about collapsed. What a beautiful tribute to Superman's origins!
Same Aisha, Ive become incredibly jaded to the CW shows so when this & Stargirl were moved from HBOMAX to CW I was really worried but if the show remains as good as the pilot, and doesn’t have too many episodes, it should be great!
Why do I think he’s from the future instead? He made it sound like he has a history with THIS Kal-El, could he have come back to a time when Earth is still around as opposed to the future? Just a theory.
Didn’t know these guys made a new channel until now. Use to watch them back in the old days on superhero news, so glad they’re back! Their reactions are the best because of how passionate they all are, love to see it.
That Iron Giant reference was on point. Especially since thats also WB! Also I forgot till you mentioned Smallville’s turning 20. I’m like DAMN I remember watching it that October I was 14 back then. Yup We’re getting Old guys!
First 5 minutes of this show is one of the best sequences of superhero media ever imo. Always come back to this reaction. Just imagine a literal GOD saying his mom made his costume
I love this show, and wanted to watch it again with others, so here I am watching it with you for the "first time" a year later. Tyler has become my favorite Superman. He gets it. He can play both Clark and Superman and plays both sides of the character to perfection. Very difficult for most actors to do. This is amazing for a long-time comic fan to say.
I believe that, in order for Superman to be finally a good character, there has to be less plot reaction and more choices. And more smiles on the top of that.
You guys are the biggest nerds I've ever seen and how have I never watched you before? I cannot tell you how emotional I get with comic stuff, especially DC.
@@theretrosavage It's already happened in one episode. He's got the angsty teen frustration and powers. He's obviously not going to go on a killing spree, but he might misuse his powers occasionally.
Very impressed by the music, storytelling, VFX, emotion. The first 5 minutes of this show was better then most things WB DC has ever done. Felt genuine and felt angst/love. This is going to be helluva ride.
Everything in the beginning of this show was amazing: the lighting, the cinematography, the music, the acting. this is the superman we've been waiting for years ...
Smallville was my favorite superhero show... I was 12 when it came out and watched every episode, now my son is 10 and we are in the end of season 2 and he loves it and has so many questions, I'm happy to share it with him... He loves this new Superman and Lois pilot as well. Thanks for the reaction
i honestly wasn't going to watch this show because i didn't know what to expect. but when your reaction vid came across my feed i figured i should watch it just to stay in the loop and now i don't regret it. by the end of the episode i was beaming from ear-to-ear; i've always loved superman and this was just such a fresh take on the story. great video guys!
This Superman and Lois is fantastic!!!! I am so happy to have these characters back but now move into them being Parents and dealing with dual roles!!!! I am sold and I hope this show goes 10 years just like Smallville!!!!!
that "i'm going back to that router" line you pulled was so perfectly timed I cracked up I had to clap couldn't help myself it felt like the right reaction because you deserve applause... btw anyone getting man of steel vibes from the special effects i'm wondering if it's the same team who worked on man of steel!
Watched this show only because I saw you guys were reacting to it!! Never watched or knew anything about Superman growing up but I absolutely loved episode 1 of this show. Can’t wait for what’s to come and seeing your reactions along the way!
100% blown away by this first episode. I'm right there with you guys, grew up on Smallville, same age as Clark on the show, and now as an adult I get to feel a little of the Smallville vibe through Jon and Jordan and Sarah, but I also get to relate to the more adult Lois and Clark. It's firing on all cylinders, I teared up multiple times for multiple reasons. Lex from an alt. universe coming to cause chaos is a great set-up/tease. I am HYPED for the rest of this season! Loved watching your reactions, have fun w/ the new WandaVision!
I have never been a big superman fan (comics wise) but I have enjoy the live action versions of it, the one thing I love is hearing people who love superman talking about it, loved this video
Am I the only person that interpreted Captain Luthor, his tech and his conversation with Superman as showing us he’s from the future? His world being destroyed: Earth. His history with Kal-El: following in his ancestors (Jon Cryer Luthor) footsteps and dealing with Superman that can’t age & his super powered kids that could break bad if not cared for properly? Something about that Captain Luthor reveal reminds me of the end of Red Son where we see a time loop of “Krypton” actually being a colony of Earth & the empire that Luthor created. Curious if anyone else thought this?
So Adam, level with us: in the thumbnail for this video, you totally positioned the logo to make it look like you're Superman, right? LOL You can do that every single week - GENIUS!
Y'all are my favorite reaction group so far and I agree with which characters you relate to as you grow up. Can't wait to watch the rest of your reactions!
I can’t believe this is a CW show. I’m happy to see this season is only 15 episodes, but that was only due to COVID. I really really hope they see the power in compact focused story telling. I don’t want to see something that feels special just turn into another bloated CW show.
No actually Berlanti & Helbing revealed that like Stargirl, Black lighting & Legends of tomorrow they will have 14 to 15 episodes. Which is a very good idea if you want to tell a good story.
I love this show, I love the fact that they don’t let things dwell into the next episode like so many other shows how they actually discuss their problems. Even if it’s not solved they at least talked about it.
As someone a lot younger than you guys, this is my first viewing of a superman I actually like, his "my mum made it" was what i always thought superman was like growing up, i never watched the christopher reeves movies though
I think this show just became my favourite CW show straight off the bat. If the writing continues to be this good that is, combined with a cinema level budget, I'm all good. And I was among those who had low expectations for this show, that itself might be the reason why I like it so much.
New cast, but besides that, I can just pretend that all of the characters minus Clark, had their memories wiped somehow(who cares how) and this is _SMALLVILLE_ season 11. We've jumped forward 20 years into the future.
“Thanks. My mom made it for me” is a line directly lifted from Superman For All Seasons. Beautiful comic, you can see this show has chosen the right comics to draw from.
My theory is that Captain Luther is possibly a hero from a world where Superman was the evil. Explains why he is a captain.The ending was a cool touch as Superman lost their battle, but goes home with a family and a happy ending with sunset. While luthor goes back to his ship all alone, in the middle of nowhere In the mountains. The score when he was walking on the snow was a very sad lonely tone. I think they’re gonna flesh him out
Had just finished watching the pilot episode and I honestly enjoyed the video and loved the outlooks from y’all. 🤗 I’m also curious about Captain Luthor as well.
Every single freaking clip I kept saying "the budget on this! holy shit!" they did such a clean sleek way better than supergirl. This is what I want every show to be. Like just keep him there no need for a crossover. I was so hesitant on this show. I did not follow any spoils and wow I am a fan right away.
I was enjoying your reactions. Then you referenced Goof Troop and the Iron Giant, and made this whole thing even better. "I want this to be the Superman that Hogarth would watch, and show to the Giant." Preach it, man!!!
I just noticed. Jordan is like clark kent on Smallville series. He now has power alongside with super father and watch him grewup controlling his power by help of a father. Heck he even dating Lana's daughter
They are possibly doing the Star Trek Kelvin timeline story with Luthor being like the Romulans looking for revenge. Looking forward to the next episode.
That's not technically the case. Its obvious that this version of Lex Luthor is from an alternate Earth PRE-Crisis On Infinite Earths. And just like we saw on Supergirl and on Batwoman certain individuals from destroyed universes got dropped onto Earth-Prime when it was newly created.
As a massive Marvel comics Spider-Man reader, huge fan of The Flash, and me working in the film industry as a Cinematographer... I loved this episode and genuinely looking forward to the next episode. Especially from a cinematography, storytelling and fan service standpoint. Goddamn it was good. Never thought I would say that about a Superman outside of JLU animated series.
I think it's not Lex Luthor, I think it's an alternate universe Clark but he's been found by the Luthors instead of the Kents (Ultraman). The suit is only to protect him form the Kryptonite he was using on Superman.
This show is gonna be good if the 1st ep has mid season finale, imagine the mid season and season finale. This show will be the 2nd coming of Smallville
Actually it’ll be another fourteen weeks. They gave them two additional episodes. I also read a report that they are leasing land where the show is filmed. The initial contract for the land is for up to three years. You know they built the town of Smallville for it
Got a notification that you guys had already watched the pilot. So straight after work i sat down to watch the 1. episode . And it looked AWESOME😮👌 Next some Wanda-Vision😀
Cant lie the scene with martha hit hard. Didn't remember she was supposed to die in first episode and it was the first anniversary of my own mother passing. But damn was that perfect. That scene and "Thanks! My mom made it for me." With 100% sincerity was what sold me totally on the writing for Clark.

Can we appreciate that even tho Jonathan doesn't have powers (YET), he still jumped in to save his brother. Hero status 💪
You love to see it.
I think he does, but coming in a bit more subtle or slower than Jordan's
@@MedalionDS9 I think they're splitting the powers. Jon will have some and Jordan will have others, flashier powers.
@@Dispaminite I was thinking similar. I think Jordan will have the Heat vision, and some resistance to damage, but I think the actual super strength will go to Jonathan
You can't be Superman's son, and not have OP powers. He has those, hidden. You see the hero instinct? Soon it should show
"Thanks. My mom made it for me." The way he said it with that wholesome smile on his face instantly made me like the guy. Wholesome 👌🏽

Maybe it's the phrase from another franchise, but ... "THIS IS THE WAY"
I cosign everything you said
I like to tell myself this is the smallville show they just look different! Bc it's an alternative universe. But it's our sam Clark and same lois etc.
This is what happens when you get HBO Max budget.
EXACTLY!
Or Amazon budget honestly
and good writing
@Makani Stuart amen
From the future here the show doesn't have a max budget.
Tyler Hoechlin! Dude, respect. He's already one of my top favorite Clark/Superman.
For sure! The guy seems genuinely great, no wonder he was cast.
@@JackFlicks first time I saw him I had all the doubts in the world. I loved being proven wrong. He spews charm.
Yeah, originally thought he was terribly miscast but this show proved that wrong!!!
_For sure,_ *"Captain Luthor"* is from an Earth that died in _CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS..._
That's definitely what it sounds like based on what he tells Superman. Excited to see where he came from and what their past is.
He probably was *the only* superhero on his world...
@@wilhelmhedin8845 Hell yeah, Classic *Earth-3* style? That'd be great.

This was a helluva strong start. And in one hour, Tyler has channeled Superman more than Cavill was allowed to do in all the movies.
I love Cavill, he looks good as superman but I see him more as the Witcher. Tyler is doing a great job so far, embodying Superman's wholesomeness.
You are seeing Superman at two entirely different points in his life it's not fair to judge. Cavill is Superman for less than 2 years, this Superman has been around for a couple of decades.

It's firing on all cylinders, I teared up multiple times for multiple reasons. Lex from an alt. universe coming to cause chaos is a great set-up/tease. I am HYPED for the rest of this season! Loved watching your reactions, have fun w/ the new WandaVision!
I already enjoyed the episode but you guys took the excitement up a level.
I have never been a big superman fan (comics wise) but I have enjoy the live action versions of it, the one thing I love is hearing people who love superman talking about it, loved this video
You guys are awesome love your points of view and you all seems to have great values and I freakin respect that 🙏
Thanks!
Keep it up fellas!! Love watching ya'll!! I've been here before your HYPER RPG days. I am glad you have your own again! Don't get burned out, Adam!
After arrow I kinda let go of the arrowverse but this show is definitely looking pretty good so far
Excellent reaction boys. Felt you all the way!
Tyler H. Truly redeemed himself in the Arrrowverse.
Am I the only person that interpreted Captain Luthor, his tech and his conversation with Superman as showing us he’s from the future? His world being destroyed: Earth. His history with Kal-El: following in his ancestors (Jon Cryer Luthor) footsteps and dealing with Superman that can’t age & his super powered kids that could break bad if not cared for properly? Something about that Captain Luthor reveal reminds me of the end of Red Son where we see a time loop of “Krypton” actually being a colony of Earth & the empire that Luthor created. Curious if anyone else thought this?
20 years since Smallville came out. Thats crazy!!! So excited for this version of the Superman story and hope we get to have it for awhile (:
So Adam, level with us: in the thumbnail for this video, you totally positioned the logo to make it look like you're Superman, right? LOL You can do that every single week - GENIUS!
Y'all are my favorite reaction group so far and I agree with which characters you relate to as you grow up. Can't wait to watch the rest of your reactions!
I can’t believe this is a CW show. I’m happy to see this season is only 15 episodes, but that was only due to COVID. I really really hope they see the power in compact focused story telling. I don’t want to see something that feels special just turn into another bloated CW show.
No actually Berlanti & Helbing revealed that like Stargirl, Black lighting & Legends of tomorrow they will have 14 to 15 episodes. Which is a very good idea if you want to tell a good story.
Hector with the Easssssseeee!!! Lol
I love this show, I love the fact that they don’t let things dwell into the next episode like so many other shows how they actually discuss their problems. Even if it’s not solved they at least talked about it.
With my crappy connection I'd be pissed if my router was all the way up there, constantly having to reset 😂
As someone a lot younger than you guys, this is my first viewing of a superman I actually like, his "my mum made it" was what i always thought superman was like growing up, i never watched the christopher reeves movies though
Guys this was GOOOOOOOD what a surprise haha
I'm so excited to watch it with you guys!!!
Great reaction, Boys! This show is giving me good, special vibes. I needed this.
I think this show just became my favourite CW show straight off the bat. If the writing continues to be this good that is, combined with a cinema level budget, I'm all good. And I was among those who had low expectations for this show, that itself might be the reason why I like it so much.
This show is soooo good!!! I'm geeking out with ya and its fun!
Agree 100 % loved smallville and yeah dad superman is awesome. I teared up 3 times.
New cast, but besides that, I can just pretend that all of the characters minus Clark, had their memories wiped somehow(who cares how) and this is _SMALLVILLE_ season 11. We've jumped forward 20 years into the future.
“Thanks. My mom made it for me” is a line directly lifted from Superman For All Seasons. Beautiful comic, you can see this show has chosen the right comics to draw from.
My theory is that Captain Luther is possibly a hero from a world where Superman was the evil. Explains why he is a captain.The ending was a cool touch as Superman lost their battle, but goes home with a family and a happy ending with sunset. While luthor goes back to his ship all alone, in the middle of nowhere In the mountains. The score when he was walking on the snow was a very sad lonely tone. I think they’re gonna flesh him out
Had just finished watching the pilot episode and I honestly enjoyed the video and loved the outlooks from y’all. 🤗 I’m also curious about Captain Luthor as well.
Was looking forward to this! 🙌🏼
Every single freaking clip I kept saying "the budget on this! holy shit!" they did such a clean sleek way better than supergirl. This is what I want every show to be. Like just keep him there no need for a crossover. I was so hesitant on this show. I did not follow any spoils and wow I am a fan right away.
Hi guys,will you be reacting to superman and lois soon?I love your reactions
Only on Patreon. They stopped posting it on TH-cam out of nowhere.
"Is that an infinity stone?" Héctor, you are savage...
This blows every other Arrowverse show out of the water, it's absolutely fantastic. Hopefully the rest of season can keep the momentum going.
I was enjoying your reactions. Then you referenced Goof Troop and the Iron Giant, and made this whole thing even better. "I want this to be the Superman that Hogarth would watch, and show to the Giant." Preach it, man!!!
I just noticed. Jordan is like clark kent on Smallville series. He now has power alongside with super father and watch him grewup controlling his power by help of a father. Heck he even dating Lana's daughter
"Your the best big brother ever!"
They are possibly doing the Star Trek Kelvin timeline story with Luthor being like the Romulans looking for revenge. Looking forward to the next episode.
That's not technically the case. Its obvious that this version of Lex Luthor is from an alternate Earth PRE-Crisis On Infinite Earths. And just like we saw on Supergirl and on Batwoman certain individuals from destroyed universes got dropped onto Earth-Prime when it was newly created.
As a massive Marvel comics Spider-Man reader, huge fan of The Flash, and me working in the film industry as a Cinematographer... I loved this episode and genuinely looking forward to the next episode. Especially from a cinematography, storytelling and fan service standpoint. Goddamn it was good. Never thought I would say that about a Superman outside of JLU animated series.
I think it's not Lex Luthor, I think it's an alternate universe Clark but he's been found by the Luthors instead of the Kents (Ultraman). The suit is only to protect him form the Kryptonite he was using on Superman.
Yo that might be true, because the computer only said "Captain Luthor" and not his full name. I like this theory
This show is gonna be good if the 1st ep has mid season finale, imagine the mid season and season finale. This show will be the 2nd coming of Smallville
Actually it’ll be another fourteen weeks. They gave them two additional episodes. I also read a report that they are leasing land where the show is filmed. The initial contract for the land is for up to three years. You know they built the town of Smallville for it
Got a notification that you guys had already watched the pilot. So straight after work i sat down to watch the 1. episode . And it looked AWESOME😮👌
Next some Wanda-Vision😀
Cant lie the scene with martha hit hard. Didn't remember she was supposed to die in first episode and it was the first anniversary of my own mother passing. But damn was that perfect. That scene and "Thanks! My mom made it for me." With 100% sincerity was what sold me totally on the writing for Clark.
