It makes Nuclear Man sound like someone on the guest list at Studio 54 LOL!

[MajorMechazawa]

Everything about this promo is perfect

[Leo_D.]

Makes the film look better than it actually is

[IgorsDen]

Funny to think how dated and idiosyncratic the late 80s style seemed by just 1999. I don't think in 2023 you could do an ad for a 2011 film like this

The song at the beginning is called Gold by spandau ballet

[andrewtc]

Awe... at first I thought this was the official trailer.

[SBREBORN]

EVEN THE MARKETING PEOPLE ON THE CHANNEL KNEW THIS MOVIE IS RIDICULOUS 😂😂😂😂😂😂 LOVE THE LOVE THIS FILM IN MANY WAYS EVEN THOUGH IT IS IMM NOT CANON, NOT TO BE CONFUSIOUSED WITH CANON STUDIOS, TO THE MOVIES AND IT SO BAD FOR ME TO WATCH AND BUT I CANT HELP BUT STILL LOVE THIS MOVIE AND HOW AWESOMELY HILARIOUS IT IS TO EXPERIENCE AND WATCH!

[powerbomb]

So basically the Superman IV villain is a Drag Queen 😂

[Dohsoda]

Is there a way or movement to get Oliver in a complete restoration behind "Superman IV"?

[Tecnicos-qjpb]

Say whatever you want, I love that movie 🍿

[SBREBORN]

Hesz so and YET *CUE A SUPERMAN THEME*

[Climinator-opkh]

No matter how bad this film is, the theme tune is still awesome!

[franciscovalle]

Is that where they got Meg’s super power-when the Griffins got coated in toxic waste, Meg’s power was to grow her nails lol.

[Stumpfs]

Oh no, please don’t help us remember this mess 😂

[serwinzzalot]

not fair, this is a tv spot for a tv airing in the afternoon nonetheless

[michaelvaughn]

I remember Nuclear Man's name being Mark Pillow. IDK if he was in any films after S4 : The Quest for Peace?? I think I read once when it came out back in '87 he was a former male model??

[DingKong]

Ha ha brilliant! It's good to see they ripped this travesty of a film a new one.

[mattmabry]

Is that the voice of Squidward as the voice over actor and just wondering because it's sounds like him

I loved this movie as a kid in the 80s. Then I grew older. Boy, this movie was a piece of 💩. Hopefully, James Gunn's reboot can be just as good as Christopher Reeves first movie. That movie still brings a tear to my eyes on how great it was.😊

Another thing I just remembered, they destroyed this franchise just like WB would later do with the Batman franchise in the 90s. The first two movies are great. Their third movies were okay, then their fourth movies, holy 💩.
