Superman/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

* The original line. You know the one. "Look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's Superman!" I understand finding Supes exciting, at least the first couple times, but...come on. Even for tourists, "Look, it's a bird"? Really? And who registers shock at a plane since there were commercial airlines?

** I think it's meant to be said by two or more people. Sorta like.

'''Person1''': No, it's Superman! }}

*** In fact, that's ''exactly'' how it's performed in the original radio and television shows. For example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=[[Q 2 l 4 bz 1 FT 8 U]]

** Except they still shouldn't be cheering for the bird or the plane. Though one could assume early on it was just a nice quote and then it [[Memetic Mutation|mutated memetically]]. I always imagine the original like this:

'''Alice''': No! It's ''Superman''! }}

*** This was how it was done in ''[[Superman Returns]]'', by Jimmy, Perry and Lois.
