[Verse]
The cannibal mind will eat, no matter the cost
But I'm running out of chalk to outline my thoughts
And though you hung up long ago, I never finish our talks
There should be something here to show, but I don't know when to stop
[Chorus]
I know that you are wondering why
It still seems like I am falling behind
I know that you are wondering why
It still seems like I am falling behind
[Bridge]
I shouldn't be here, I know
If I could move, I still wouldn't know where to go
"Is it always this slow?"
Said the broken pony swallowed up by the snow
[Outro]

The clone Superman in this movie is my favorite interpretation of an "evil" Superman. He feels so much like Superman, he cares about protecting Metropolis, he cares about protecting the innocent, but he's missing Clark Kent.
He's so in control of his own actions that it's chilling.
That and he doesn't fall for the red sun + kryptonite trick. Dude dealt with that like a pro.
Yeah this is honestly a great version.
Another version of the evil Superman I think is fantastic is ultraman from crisis on two earths, mainly because he is an evil equivalent to Clark Kent. The whole thing about clark is that he’s basically your friend Good Samaritan but on an epic scale and for this film they do an evil equivalent to that in which he’s basically a gang leader. Like the scene with president Wilson, it doesn’t come off as a sociopathic god talking down to an underlying but more as someone in the mob threatening someone for protection money. It’s such an interesting way to take it and it honestly fits really well
Let’s not forget how his King Kong inspired theatrics from standing atop the tallest skyscraper in Metropolis was an incredible display of how formidable of a fighter Superman can be in long distance combat!
I never had more sympathy for soldiers than in those moments. They knew that they were fighting a war that they could not win but they fought on anyway, bless their souls.
You know Superman is a true alpha male when people with guns are sweating bullets and afraid to shoot at him. Compared to the traditional Superman who nobody hesitates to shoot at.
Seeing Doppelgänger Superman use just his heat vision so effectively like that instantly reminded me of the prophecy in the Book of Revelation which says, “And the people shall say, “Who is like the beast? Who can go to war against him?!”
Revelation 13:4
Or in other words: How do you fight something like that?!
@@christopherauzenne5023I’m absolutely convinced that Doppelgänger Superman would’ve wrecked Doomsday and wouldn’t even have come closing to losing his life in the battle. Because he was just so efficient and tactical unlike Traditional Emotional Superman who gave his life to save a little girl. Leaving Metropolis and the world devoid of its greatest champion, savior and defender.
You know how you defeat Doomsday? The same way you defeat the Incredible Hulk. Throw him into Jupiter or 🪐 Saturn. Imprison them in gas giant planets devoid of any solid surface to propel themselves off of. Hulk Smash comes to an end on a planet like Jupiter!
The Superman that Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster created was a physical marvel and mental wonder from day one! Modern Superman however tends to just be a physical marvel and they need to really give Superman his Super-Brain back!
Honestly I'm surprised they weren't tempted in making this clone of Superman the Bizarro of this universe as it would give us a more terrifying Bizarro that wanted justice but with the lack of morals and all of the strength of Superman. However I do think it was better that this unnamed clone is his own person as it does act as a living personification of what Superman's mission to protect others would look like if the humble farmboy Clark Kent was gone
yeah
The red solar radiation room scene is my favourite Lex Luthor scene in any form of media.
Top1 for sure
It’s so good. Why don’t we use that more often?
My favorite one is when he doesn't wash his hands cause he's evil. Though I guess it really wasn't him lol
@@thoarnejones6805 Because it doesnt make sense.
A red sun emits less energy then the yellow one , it doesnt strip Superman out of his powers like kryptonite , it just doesnt feed him as much or any energy but it doesnt do anything to superman's own reserves he still needs to get tired before "red Sun" comes into play.
@@crisstoff89thank you!!! Someone finally noticed too
Lex’s monologues in this movie are top tier and to this day I can recite them from memory. One major thing this movie taught me was imitating Superman’s humble nature. His line “it’s why I’m here” is something I started saying immediately after watching this movie when it came out. I remember it fondly even if I don’t watch it often.
Me too.
yo
A an exchange of lines from All Star Superman:
Lex: If it wasn't for you I could've saved the world.
Superman: If it had mattered to you Luthor, you could've saved the world years ago
Followed (in the movie adaptation) by this line:
Lex: _”…You’re right.”_
That bit gets me every time.
Honestly, the Monarch is wasted on Doctor Venture. Imagine that amount of insane hatred directed at what is, for all intents and purposes, God, only, human. I can honestly hear Clark just going, "Dude?! WHAT THE FUCK?!"
@Superlad945 while I truly appreciate the sentiment, various studies have pointed towards a correlation between course language and intelligence, especially communication intelligence, and he *is* a prize-winning journalist, combine this with how insane The Monarch's level of vitriol is, and I think he might curse. We're talking about being pushed beyond human endurance.
@@Superlad945 fair enough.
Yeah Superman sleeping with Lois without telling her he's Clark is just weird
It's the one thing that really bugs me about DCAU Superman. By the end of Justice League Unlimited, he's dating Lois as Superman and she still doesn't know he's Clark. It's just gross and crosses a line for me.
@@robertwild9447 Yeah its a disappointment we never got to see such an iconic scene like Clark telling Lois with those great versions of the characters
But like imagine if he was Clark sleeping with Lois without telling her he’s Superman
The Glasses stay on DURING Sex
Yeah it is really weirder though honestly if she didn’t know by then
It’s pretty weird
@@Doodle1678maybe she’s into glasses
@robertwild9447 Sorry, but are you referring to the DCAMU or the Timm/Dini DCAU? Because I had gathered that this film isn't set in that universe. I'm a little confused.
Martha Kent's "That is *not* the boy I raised." is so good for some reason.
"The other remains evil and bald" Of course he's going to stay bald!
Lex's biggest problem is not Superman, it's the face he sees every morning in the mirror. For someone who's so brilliant he always falla in the temper trap he's subject to the tantrums of a infant. I don't know if he's the highest level intillect in the universe, he's up there up there but his emotional flaws detract from his potential. The temper trap is a very powerful thing if you have ever been in one it becomes a feed back loop that leaves you wheel spinning and you just flooring it and wondering why you ain't going anywhere you can't see your fault. I think this is partly what attracts people to Lex he connects to a part in all of us. Theres a saying I like to think I came up with but I've noticed almost everything has already been said maybe just in another way. If you don't have ambition your dead, and if ambition is all you have your the devil. That being said Lex stands pretty close to the edge and we sometimes see some humanity. CS Lewis wrote this. I live in the Managerial Age, in a world of "Admin." The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid "dens of crime" that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voices. Hence, naturally enough, my symbol for Hell is something like the bureaucracy of a police state or the office of a thoroughly nasty business concern.
I think that last bit is Lex. The devil in a nice suit.
before this movie, my only introduction to Superman was with the JL/JLU cartoons, and as a young kid, this movie shook me in more ways than one. The deaths The brutality of Doomsday as he gutpunched Superman, how he bled, thecoldness of seeing somebody that looked like him drop Toyman, and the things I didn't pick up then like the grief from his friends all shaped my appreciation for the boy scout.
Did the Bruce Timm art style and character design make the movie more shocking when you first watched it. I ask since a lot of people thought the movie was part of the DCAU due to that, and you said that was your introduction to Superman.
@@themadtitan7603 Maybe, but I wasn't exposed to stuff like South Park or the grittier Batman episodes, or if I was I hardly remember. I think it was just how the movie made the destruction more, brutal when Doomsday came as this unstoppable force that attacked at the slightest provocation, like when it killed that farmer and his dog, snapped a soldier's neck, and was ready to kill a child before Superman, bloodied and bruised after being thrown around sent him up in space to send him down like a meteor
@@ZeroDeMighty I see
Yeah we were pretty young when this film came out. I knew "My parents would not like this movie."
That scene with Lois and Martha though. I love it.
I hadn't realized Bruce Timm was involved in this. Now everything makes sense.
"One is a love story." which is precisely what makes the 2018 adaptation better, imo! I love it when the Clark and Lois dynamic is essentially a love story between Clark and humanity; with Lois Lane being the personification of all we are.
I personally prefer the Death and Reign of Superman I feel like that's the only way you can adapt the Death of Superman story is make it a 2 parter because you get Superman Doomsday that feels rushed or in Snyders case combining the Death of Superman and the Dark Knight Returns into a cluster fuck of a movie.
No way, I just watched this film yesterday and was looking for videos on it just a few hours ago lmao. Amazing timing.
Man I adored this movie as a kid. The fight between Supes and Doomsday was my favorite superhero battle ever.
This movie made me cry. The scene where Lois goes to Ma Kent and just breaks down completely broke me
I honestly enjoyed Superman Doomsday from start to finish, and thought it was a good Superman movie that adapted the death and return of Superman with some interesting differences. The fight between Superman and Doomsday was especially brutal. Also, the fight between Superman and his misguided clone did start with a talk, but the clone was just too misguided in his ways. The clone was even willing to kill, and Superman needed the kryptonite and black suit because he simply didn't recover his full strength. Even when Superman was forced to kill his clone, it's clear that he didn't want to do it, and made sure that the clone knew that he would protect the people.
Honestly out of all the death of Superman adaptations I gotta give it to death of Superman animated movie we got years later because personally for me that movie told that story way better then it had ever right to be at least in my opinion.
I didn't watch it but I'm more intrigued to do so now after seeing all the positive reactions to it in the comments. One of my problems with The Death of Superman and I imagine its adaptations is that it felt like a story made up of mostly spectacle that all ultimately builds up to the attention-grabing event in the title. Rather than being a story about character and themes first. In your opinion: does the movie have the same quality or does it manage to improve upon this aspect.
@@themadtitan7603 i can understand that an to answer your question i think that latest movie does improve the quality of the story.
At the time of watching this, and for awhile after, I admit, I was one of the ones who found superman boring, and didn't care for him.
When the "evil" superman took over, I loved him. My typical teenager self loved the edge, scolding the old lady, lazering his own skull to remove a bomb. He was awesome.
And it was an utter shame he had to die in the story.
i remember my dad getting an early preview of the movie when i was a kid that ended when superman and doomsday caused a shockwave from punching each other. It was the first time I saw superman cut loose and fight tooth and nail which was awesome to see. the connection between the clone and doomsday is a interesting one i never noticed before.
it's like lex hates superman because despite clark being as human as possible there's always someone faster, stronger and thinking faster than lex.
Lex has the 1933 Superman complex.
He thinks that he's the superior man who should reign above the others, even among the "Godlike" Supes.
I like this movie….but I still prefer The Death of Superman and Reign of The Supermen more. They were able to handle the stories better because they split them into 2 movies. This one tries to combine both and it’s kinda a mess sometimes.
Wait how does Superman know what Lex taste like???
I like to watch the cartoon movie up to the funeral bit. For me, The Death of Superman is one of the greatest comic stories ever told across almost all of its iterations...So long as you ignore the part where they bring him back. If it were me handling the story, he would've stayed dead.
God Leo I absolutely ADORE your work. Belated congrats on the 200k subs!
Loved this movie as a kid, another awesome esaay IP.
Honestly I heard about death of Superman before this movie but didn't know the clone subplot was actually apart of the story.
So much death in this movie from Doomsday being Doomsday to even Mercy Graves being murdered by Lex himself was just off to me.
Also I didn't know the Toyman in this film was closer to his comic appearance so I was put off by it compared to his DCAU appearance.
2:16 that “ew” made me laugh more than it should’ve
This movie also has my favourite Doomsday design. He looks actually menacing and powerful. And his only priority was to kill anyone that came in his way. No thoughts, no remorse, no words, just killing. And because of this, it feels more believable when Superman is struggling fighting against him. He was pretty much The Incredible Hulk, just without any limitations.
Probably the best animated Doomsday design.
The DCAMU design is great too, but he looks too human there, tjis one is a straight up monster.
I also like this Superman's design a little better than the DCAU one, he looks even more imposing, majestic and the colors used for him are awesome.(Except for the terrifying cheekbones and those eyes, damm i hate that effect).
Same goes for Lois, Jimmy and Perry.
i've always felt weird about that red room scene since i saw the film back in jr high. Glad it's weirdness was noticed.
This film was one of the first DC Animated movies I saw as a kid. I remember really liking it & after that my opinion kinda waned. But I'm glad to see it's remembered even now, it did have many great moments.
Love all your videos, it I miss the previous end credits song.
The editing here is top tier, alright I’m going back in
On another note, Lex Luthor developing a single inoculation cure for a horrible disease that he wants to withhold from the world to make a profit, and a couple of heroes finding out about him doing that and wanting to break in to steal the cure before he can patent it would make such a COOL heist story. I'd love the shit outa that!
Still the best portrayal of Doomsday and the best animated fight of the DCAU. We talked about it recently on the r/Superman.
Yeah this film is very influential in how I see doomsday, from a design point of view. No offense but the original design looked way too much like an old man at points, here is what my mind sees when I see doomsday. Just wished he had those “cage bars” around his eyes.
You changed the credits music. Wasn't expecting that.
Death of Superman is better to me. It was so effective it fully made a Superman fan out of me.
I will never get tired of you discussing DC animated properties
I want the previous video’s intro.
8:20 Out of topic, i know, but how would Superman know what Lex tastes like?
Actually, the recent Death of Superman animated film also asked Lois is everyone was safe before he died. That line was coined by the comics Death of Superman
Funny enough in a video about a movie called “Super Doomsday” Doomsday is only mentioned like 2 times
What's going on with superman cheekbones in this lmao he looks so funny
I see you changed up the outro music
You cover any of Superman TAS yet?
It's not official but i've always thought this movie is a sequel to Brainic attacks, since in that movie there's this scene when Lois realize how much Clark and Superman look alike, she demands to Superman to enter into a real relationship and also in that they say they will send Clark overseas and in this one he's supposed to go and later is supposed to be missing, so nobody suspects when he's not around while Superman is death.
Also for me this 8s the best conclusion to the fight between Supes and Doomsday. Since in the comic they both "put everything in this punch" at the same time, and in both BvS and the DoS movie he's just impaled because he attacks without thinking. Here the impact of the "super suplex" that is strong enough to kill Doomsday is obviously too much for Superman to survive.
What's the song you used in the credits? :3.
10:26
Still Love the Movie, Despite the Flaws you mention which i agree with, disagree or think it's being overblown but by Far the best part is the beggining until the Death of Superman, Doomsday Especially in this movie was something else.
I remember this movie, good times
I remember watching this when I was, like 6 or 8 years old, and I did NOT expect this movie to be so mature. I'll have to give it another watch sometime.
Still Problably The Best Portrayal/depiction of Doomsday and his fight with Superman
8:49 isn’t that ratso from the Jackie Chan adventures 😂😂
the only disturbing thing about this movie was supe's face lol its like they took the dcau superman and added those stupid lines to his face lmao kinda like his face from jl season 1
Can you please make an analysis of GotG 3? I rly want to see your view on this movie
"You taste like Lex". That about sums it up.
When the first (and perhaps only) season of My Adventures with Superman concludes, wouldja consider doing a video on it?
I think we're all curious of your opinion.
This movie scared me as a kid and that was just the trailer. To me Superman was this untouchable guy so to see him bleed was just scary. I warched this movie for the first time 6 years ago, and i warched the fight BACKWARDS (stupid when i read it back, i know. I'm not proud of it 😅) i was left feeling like i was watching something i shouldnt be. Now coming back to it, i realise that the fight still has that fear over me...but the rest of the movie is laughable 😂.
Honestly I'm surprised they weren't tempted in making this clone of Superman the Bizarro of this universe as it would give us a more terrifying Bizarro that wanted justice but with the lack of morals and all of the strength of Superman. However I do think it was better that this unnamed clone is his own person as it does act as a living personification of what Superman's mission to protect others would look like if the humble farmboy Clark Kent was gone
The question is not why Lois taste like lex its how why superman knows how lex taste
the clone made me Homelander level anxious
Bro i wish u could go over jokers relationship with Batman
This is an excellent movie!
Could be worse, could be Texas power grid.
Superman with a gun
1:38 Hold up, I thought this is Lex Luthor. How come he's Filthy Frank? wink wink
I haven't seen this movie since it first came out, so maybe I should come back to it to be sure, but I generally feel like Reign of the Supermen>Superman: Doomsday>Death of Superman. If Death was WAY shorter & a single movie with Reign, I'd probably say it was the better adaptation of Superman's death. Funny thing is that I actually had to get back up of bed because I was having internet outages I wanted to fix, so I'm now typing this comment at almost 4 AM.
I really like this movie I thought it was cool
wtf those cheekbones,
It’s a style. Chill.
@@ComicsForLife2023They're stil awkward, Supes looks old.
There should’ve been a trilogy. 70 minutes was just not enough for one film.
So how do we get you hired as a writer for James Gunn’s and safran’s new Superman movie?
2:04 extremely narcissistic
Is albert wesker
As an aside, just regarding the art, I really don't like the design of Superman's face in this one. It's like they took the DCAU design and then were like "MOAR CHEEKBONES! MOAAR!" But it doesn't look like cheekbones, it looks like someone smooshed his face. And Lex looks like a weird bobblehead.
Does anyone else think that this movie s art is kinda simillar to Under the red hood and maybe the 2 GL animated movies?
Theirs only one Superman.
Even when I was young, I thought this movie had so much wasted potential.
The new 52 movie version did the stroy so much better.
“Who’s your daddy”
Hola
Look at the first chapter: is simple and right.
Lex Luther as a Creepy Sex Pervert is a hilarious thing! But not as hilarious and evil as him stealing all those cakes and not washing his hands!!!!!
I wouldn't even consider the clone superman to be that evil tbh, bro kills a child killer and tries the same with lex, kinda f'ed he kills the clones i mean they coulda been good clones. But he even gave superman the chance just to leave when he figured out they weren't matched. Bro just wanted to protect metropolis tho he totally mightve killed some of the military in the end 🤷♂️, but still bro shouldve just stole bludhaven or something im suprised noone in the movie looks up to him and hes just represented as evil in this movie. Sure he's not superman but like i wouldn't guarantee him as a villian either
I’m the fifth comment
proud of you, bud - dad
Frist!
You can't really out-do JL/U in general.
Do you have anything planned for talking about "My Adventures with Superman"?
Superman is a simp and gets had.
Eh I actually do like lex luther because he's cool
Lex is a great villain
I am disturbed Lois and Lex got it on. Or rather,, I hated that you showing him on top of her. Love is pointless, women will I was step out with evil.
It's been awhile since I've seen the movie, but I'm pretty sure she did so to get him to lower his guard to knock him out with a tranquilizer
Still, not a great site to see
Lois was just tricking Lex so she could uncover the truth about Clone Supes.
She sedated him with a syringe while they kissed.
Bring back the old intro😡😕
Yes, the intro really have that signature factor.
Probably to avoid strikes on the channel.
