Clearly there must be something wrong with me

So apparently I'm the only one out there that liked this one best of the four of them... Maybe it had something to do with childhood nostalgia since this one was released when I was old enough to understand things and I grew more attached to this one.
I don't know, but comic reality removed, I actually always wanted superman to stick with Lana and couldn't stand Lois' personality and definitely not her looks in this series. Lana was by far the better choice and I was always sad at that.

Sure the movie was crazier and more unrealistic than the previous two, but it's all fantasy anyways and this one was more fun to me.

Plus I always thought dark superman had supremely superior costume and makeup compared to bland good superman. Plus he annoyed me less because no one is ever that good. Probably why I always preferred Batman in general, because not only was he actually human, but he acted human, but I digress...

Believe it or not this is my 2nd Favorite behind Superman 2 now don't get me Wrong the 1st Superman Movie is Excellent it makes you believe a man can fly the Movie is really perfect with that said I just always preferred the 2nd and 3rd in the 2nd Film he gives up his powers goes head to head with 3 Super Villains that are just as strong as him. Superman 3 is an Underrated Film much like how I feel about Batman Forever I can 100% understand why people hate Superman 3 I just always felt there was more good then bad in the Film plus for me the greatest Moment/Scene in any Superman Movie or Show is in this Movie when Clark and Superman battle it out that scene alone shows you what an amazing Actor Christopher Reeve was how he is able to play a good/bad version of himself plus I always liked the Lana Character because she likes him as Clark not as Superman much like Lacy in Superman 4 also I feel Christopher Reeve looked the Best as Clark Kent/Superman in this film he was so big I feel Superman 3 is very underrated.
