Wow. I won an Oscar just by watching this documentary. thanks Leonard Nimoy. Great documentary short. A lost gem.

[@kengeorgejones6855]

Thanks. What a treasure Leonard Nimoy was. Interesting to see Reeve so optimistic about Superman 3 considered the reception it got (although he couldn't exactly promote it negatively).

[@haveyouseenthis516]

You're welcome. Christopher Reeve was certainly doing his job to promote the film but he did seem a little tired of the franchise and he was hoping this would be the last entry with him in the role.

It was a great movie. I don’t care what anyone says. If someone didn’t like it, then they’re the problem because this and all 4 Superman films were masterpieces and true works of art.

[@Vinylgeekdom1980]

Supes 3== underrated. And Reeve looked in his prime here. (please don't hate me for my love of Supes 3)

[@mattdawg83686]

I haven’t seen this since I was a kid in 1983!

For some reason the Statue of Liberty has always kind of given me the creeps. Now I see why. In the thumbnail look at her eye😮

[@DavidMichaels-q5d]

yeah, it has me. And I've never even seen it in real life, only on T.V.

[@bryanqueensberry6215]

@@DavidMichaels-q5d I've never seen it either in real life but hopefully one day me & the wife will make the trip

[@DavidMichaels-q5d]

My favourite parts in Superman 3 are: Richard Pryor falling from the building on skis ( which is incredibly realistic) and the red man fighting the green man on the traffic lights. ( again, very believable).

[@nattyps3160]

I cringe about superman 3 today. Lester is a bufoon. I love pryor but just b/c he was a fan u dont make this a comedy w/ pryor as the star & reeve as supporting. Only good part is clark & supermans fight.

[@LuisMotta06]

If you’re cringing then you’re the problem. This was a great movie. I don’t care what anyone else says otherwise.
