Did anyone else feel really sorry for him towards the end, when Santa is talking to him about how he wanted a Superman cape? He wanted one so he could stop being bullied. Kevin Spacey acted so well (as usual) in that scene. Brilliant. I feel sorry for Clyde.
What about you?
Arrested Development - The Movie
2009
I thought it was a fantastic scene - two great actors making a mediocre scene so heartfelt - it was brilliant! I completely felt for Clyde. That was one of my favorite scenes in the whole movie :)

My husband and I loved that scene, too...I was kinda hoping that the cape would make Clyde really into Superman, and that he would fly "up, up , and away!" to rescue Fred, but maybe next time....
shareI thought that somehow the cape would at least make his eyes better so he didn't need the glasses.
Edit: I also think it is funny that his character made more sense in this movie than his character in Superman returns.

THIS. I totally agree.

I actually liked Clyde even when he was plotting against Santa, so to me that scene was more about Santa being able to see the good in a person who only caused harm to him before. I think it's great that Clyde didn't fly, this movie is not intended to be a fairy tail. I also like the fact Fred was able to travel to North Pole using usual means.
I think Kevin Spacey outacted everyone else in this movie. Maybe I was expecting to much from Giamatti.
Yes--I completely agree with you about that, OP.
