Pitch Meeting Poke Fun at All the Wild Logic in SUPERMAN (1978)

Superhero movies may rule Hollywood now, but back in 1978 Richard Donner’s Superman was the groundbreaking film that set the stage for everything that came after.

Now, I love this movie, but watching it today, there are plenty of head-scratching moments that make you wonder what exactly was going on behind the scenes.

Why did Clark Kent basically create a love triangle with himself, what was that random poem recital all about, and how on Earth did Lex Luthor figure out kryptonite’s existence, let alone its effects?

This fun Pitch Meeting video digs into all these questions with its signature style, breaking down the logic gaps in Superman while reminding us why the movie is still such an important piece of superhero history.
