NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....no ****ing way....this can't be happening...he was the best superman ever. He was a pioneer in promoting stem-cell research...he can't be gone...this has to be a cruel joke
Ah man, I thought he was going to hold on a little longer. Hearing the news about him moving his fingers a while ago made me real happy for him. I hope he didn't suffer. My hat goes off to Christopher Reeve. My heart goes out to his family and the millions of us fans who grew up watching him save the world. Rest in peace, my friend.
"What a brilliant future we could have. And, there will be peace. There will be peace when the people of the world want it so bad that their governments will have no choice but to give it to them....I just wish you could see earth like I see it. Because when you think about it, it's really just one world."
-Superman
A terrible loss, but he will be remembered as a hero, both in real life and in character, a person who never gave up and who has been an inspiration for so many, indeed, a true Super Man, may he rest in peace.
