I feel like this commonly used argument misses key context. There are numerous scenes where Clark disappears and then within literal seconds, Superman appears. Like yeah, the costume would totally work in instances where someone hadn't literally just seen Clark, but if I just saw that fucker a few seconds ago and then saw Superman, I'd definitely at least do a contemplative eye squint.
And then there's this: https://youtu.be/BIaF0QKtY0c
Only plausible because of Reeves' excellent acting. Like, yeah. That's 2 different people!
Obviously superman is also a super actor, at least as good as Reeves.
I think the actual reason is no one has any reason to think that superman is walking around with an alter ego, especially without an elaborate disguise. I mean he doesn't wear a mask like the psycho bat. so people even know superman has an alter ego?
