    Everyone's talking about how they saw Chris Reeve in World Engine scene of Man of Steel but I just don't see it, Cavill's pose might be an homage but I don't think Chris Reeve appeared for a split second.

    Thoughts?

    @starsprime3: I think that was coincidental. Chris Reeve had to have black hair and blue eyes to play Superman just like Henry Cavill did in MOS. The World Engine's extreme force as he was standing within it was causing his face to ripple, which caused it to resemble Chris Reeve on a purely coincidental level. It's obvious the small minority of people who believe this really just miss the guy...
