I believed a man can fly. Because of Superman The Movie, I learned that just because the world can be dark and cruel, it doesn't mean YOU have to.

Rest In Peace, Richard Donner. You will be forever missed.

On lui doit un film d'horreur terrifiant et inoubliable, un film de super-héros grandiose et parfait ainsi qu'une saga d'action mémorable et culte.
Richard Donner a façonné une partie de la pop-culture américaine.
Le cinéma d'action lui doit beaucoup.

RIP Richard Donner. These two films in particular made a huge impact upon me in my youth; a child in love with fantasy and a teen obsessed with horror. Beautifully paced and full of wonder. Wonderful work.

The creative influence of Richard Donner’s Superman is so ingrained in me every single time I draw that character and his world. Every single time. That’s an influence that will never cease in me as long as I live.

Saddened to hear about the passing of one of the most beloved directors, RICHARD DONNER. From his early tv gigs (on Twilight Zone episodes like the classic "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet") to cult movies like SUPERMAN & THE GOONIES & LETHAL WEAPON series, his legacy will live forever.

With Superman, it was Donner who insisted the subject of the comic book superhero should be treated "straight," giving respect to the genre's particular conventions and tone, rather than the "camp" tone that was planned for the film.

The result is a timeless cinematic classic.

Richard Donner, who made us believe a man could fly with Superman, gave us the blueprint for the buddy cop movie in Lethal Weapon and arguably made the greatest kids film ever with Goonies.

Feels like obviously people are gonna focus mostly on Richard Donner's film career but let's not forget his contributions to comics and Superman lore in general

Richard Donner's SUPERMAN THE MOVIE is the very template every comic book film overlooks at its peril. He flew its vital sense of verisimilitude throughout THE GOONIES, LETHAL WEAPON, THE OMEN & more and cinema & our youth flew because of it.
