Superman (Christopher Reeves) vs Superman (Brandon Routh)?
Well i am an expert on this plus i own all the Films lol.
Christopher Reeve's Superman is by far the more Powerful out of the Movie Supermen, Christopher Reeve's Superman displayed feats remarkably similar to the Silver Age Superman in the Comics, in fact Christopher Reeve's Superman was actually based off of SA Supes. Christopher Reeve also looks alot more like Superman then Brandon Routh does, Reeve's is also a better actor and brings more powerful emotions to the role of Superman. And out of every person that has ever played Superman on screen no one even comes close to Christopher Reeve's Superman.
Here are Scans and Footage to show the remarkable similarity of Silver Age Superman & Christopher Reeve's Superman.
Looks Familiar lol
Looks Familiar lol
Looks Familiar lol
With this you can obviously tell that Christopher Reeve's Superman was the closest thing to a Silver Age Superman in the Films.
Brandon Routh's Superman is more on the level of Current Superman maybe a little more powerful, but Brandon Routh's Superman never accomplished the great feats of power that Reeve's Superman did, also Routh doesn't look much like a Superman, he looks to be more like a Superboy, and Routh's acting was ok but nothing compared to Reeve's performance. And the new Superman Uniform looks like Meteor Mans lol you can tell that they added muscle pads in the costume to make Routh look a little bigger then he actually is, however Reeve's needed no muscle pads because Reeve's was a naturally big man standing at 6'4" and weighing 225 and had a more robust look & build then Routh.
Christopher Reeve Superman Wins Easily... There will never be another person in the history of mankind that looks and can play Superman the way Christopher Reeve did. I think people saw that after the Superman Returns film which is why there haven't been any sequels since then.
R.I.P
Christopher Reeve
@CyberdyneSystems: There trying to get the "man of steel" going so no superboy movie,but unfortuantely since they made it it's cannon for that movie universe rouths, and reeve superman are one in the same.
@uknow: Hold on buddy, the Classic Christopher Reeve Superman Movies were Brilliant and well done and had great story, acting, plots and a far better director Richard Donner. The new Superman Returns Movie plus the Man of Steel sequel if they even end up making it Sucks Donkey Ass and has horrible acting, story, plots and a second rate Director in Bryan Singer lol.
@jasraj: Batman is awesome, but the best Batman Films were Batman & Batman Returns with Michael Keaton and the New Batman Films with Christian Bale, Batman Forever and Batman and Robin Sucked Terribly, Val Kilmer made me laugh and George Clooney looked retarded in the Bat Suit lol.
Michael Keaton and Christian Bale are the greatest Batmans of all time.
And the greatest batman of all time is kevin conroy.
Christopher Reeves Superman reversed time and moved the moon. I'm going with him. Also, I think this might have been done already.
Wasn't Kevin Conroy on the Batman 1950's T.V Series? i remember that and he did play a great Batman for the time period.
OK these are the best Batmen in My Opinion now that you mention it lol
Kevin Conroy, Michael Keaton & Christian Bale. The thing i notice though is that its easy to always find a new guy to play Batman but its extremely difficult to find a guy to play Superman, sure there is these new guys like Brandon Routh and Tom Welling but they don't have the same element or emotion or look that Christopher Reeve's had, its almost like Reeve's was destined to be a Real Life Superman, if you look at Superman from past comics to the comics of today, you will see that Christopher Reeve looks like Superman from head to toe lol, which is creepy in some ways because Superman was created long before Reeve's was born.
Oops i got the names twisted with the Bats lol
I remember the Animated Series and it was cool i always toon into the episodes when ever they came on. And i agree that Kevin Conroy has a Brilliant Batman Voice, but as for the on screen Batman's i would say West, Keaton and Bale there. And the best Joker animated is Mark Hamill but on screen Heath Ledger no doubt, Jack Nicholson did well as the Joker but i liked Ledgers approach much better.
Routh is to Superman what george Clooney to Batman.
Worst Superman Ever!!!
Reeves is the only real Superman
God no, Keaton was just an okay Batman. He's regarded higher because everybody thought he'd be awful. Christian Bale Isn't amazing, but at least he's the first Batman to play a person.
@jasraj: Batman is awesome, but the best Batman Films were Batman & Batman Returns with Michael Keaton and the New Batman Films with Christian Bale, Batman Forever and Batman and Robin Sucked Terribly, Val Kilmer made me laugh and George Clooney looked retarded in the Bat Suit lol. Michael Keaton and Christian Bale are the greatest Batmans of all time. "
christopher reeves and brandon routh both played the same character in the movies. they're the same superman pretty much. now comic superman vs movie superman would of been a better thread. ( it would make more sense. ) I'd still say the movie superman was the most over powered.more over powered than the comic version or the cartoon version.
