Anyways. I can't wait for this movie I was thinking of taking a half day off from work to take my 5 year old son to see this movie, He may be one of the few bigger Superman fans than me that I know. I bought him Superman-The Animated Series vol 1 at best buy over the weekend which I have to exchange after work today because of a bad disc. I may pick up vol 2 while I am there. My son walks around the house humming the Superman theme songs all the time, The cartoon,smallville and the movie ones. He also got the Superman Costume from Wal-Mart for his birthday

I went a bit crazy yesterday... I picked up 8 (yes, EIGHT) different Superman sets...
I snagged:
Lois & Clark S1 & S2 (29.99 and 27.99)
The Adventures of Superman S1 & S2 (George Reeves - 19.99 each)
Superman: TAS vol. 1 & vol. 2 (14.99 each)
Challenge of the Superfriends vol. 1 (14.99)
Superfriends vol. 2 (14.99)
I don't know what the deal is with those last two... According to the listings at DVD Aficionado and TVTome.com, the episodes from each set aired on the same days in 1978...

^ And no Smallville... Tsk, tsk...
Well, I'm kidding of course, but it's damn shame. It's a fine show with a great new twist on the mythos (of course I would not recommend this to any diehard mythos fan). If you haven't seen it you should.

Oh there is a difference though. Superfriends is fun.

To be honest, I've never seen Superfriends. In fact, I've never even heard about it. And while Smallville isn't all cake, it's a great drama and at its core are some very interesting and relatable characters. As much as you may hate it for going all death on Jonathan, you still can't deny it man! Best thing you can do is just admit defeat now.

I don't really despise it. But I just can't see the point of making a version of something with a following if you're going to change it. (And yes, I know in the original comics, Ma and Pa Kent died before Clark left Smallville, but DC put a lot of time and effort into Crisis on Infinate Earths to establish the new continuity).Disney-Fan wrote:To be honest, I've never seen Superfriends.

I mean, can you imagine the outrage if Warners made a Harry Potter film where he wasn't an orphan? Where he happened to meet Ron years before attending Hogwarts? And where Harry and Dudley used to be firm friends?

In all fairness the whole Clark/Lex idea wasn't a Smallville one, and in Season 5 they have become enemies so the mythos is intact. It's just beating around the bush to get eventually to the same place. None of the creative licence they've taken changes the history of Superman, or damage it for that matter (I think, please correct me if I'm wrong). That's my take on the series.2099net wrote:I mean, can you imagine the outrage if Warners made a Harry Potter film where he wasn't an orphan?

Lex and Clark. Now that's a complex issue. I don't believe - but could be wrong - that in current DC continuity Lex and Clark were ever friends, or indeed knew of each other before Clark arrived in Metropolis.
I think it was just pre-Crisis continuity (the same continuity that has Superboy existing, which according to current DC continuity he never did) that had the whole friends/kryptonite/bald/jealousy series of events.
As for harming the continuty, well, I know its comic books and worse things have happened, both in DC and Marvel comics, but I do think having Perry White and Lois Lane and others appear in Smallville (the place, not the show, but both are applicable) does weaken their importance somewhat.
Like I say, you wouldn't want a Harry Potter film to be made which shows Harry and Ron just happened to meet and interact with each other 3 or 4 years before Harry went to Hogwarts.
But when all is said and done, Smallville is still better than the other Superboy TV series (sorry Deathie) and I fully understand why the series was made, what it is attempting to do (no costume etc) and why they do need the odd mythos heavy "special guest".

The press release has come in for the Superman DVD releases due on November 28. It's a bit disappointing, because, as I understand it, the Ulimate Box Set, which was originally planned, is now 8-Disc's, not 14. Apparently, it will not include Superman II: The Donner Cut, Supergirl, Superman Returns, nor the documentary, Look, Up In The Sky: The Amazing Story of Superman. I don't mind the documentary not being included, as I picked up the Limited Edition 2-Disc from Best Buy, but, I was hoping for the other movies to be in it, rather than having to buy them separately.
Here is the press release, which I got from www.DVDActive.com . The press release is posted in the comments section, by the editor.
http://www.dvdactive.com/news/releases/ ... eases.html
On November 28, in celebration of the year of Superman, Warner Home Video will release a host of DVDs, all starring the late Christopher Reeve in his landmark portrayal of the Man of Steel. Leading the way will be the long-awaited Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut ($24.98 SRP), directed by Donner and representing Superman II as it was originally conceived and intended to be filmed. An overwhelmingly requested title, the movie features Donner's original footage, shot but never used before, including a never-before-seen beginning, a never-before-seen resolution, with 15 minutes of restored footage of Marlon Brando as Jor-El and much more.
Other titles to be released include Superman: The Movie Four Disc Special Edition ($39.92 SRP) which features both the DVD debut of the 1978 theatrical version as well as the 2001 extended edition with commentary from director Richard Donner and Tom Mankiewicz, archival footage of additional scenes and screen tests.
Richard Lester's ever-popular Superman II will be available in a new Two Disc Special Edition ($26.99 SRP) including a new featurette, vintage television specials and additional vault elements; and Superman III and IV Deluxe Editions ($19.97 SRP). Finally, The Christopher Reeve Superman Collection ($79.92 SRP) will be offered in an 8-disc boxed set including all the above (except Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut).
Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut
Superman II will delight fans who, for years, have been imploring Warner Home Video via voluminous numbers of petitions, letters, phone calls and e-mails to release the Donner cut.
In fact, Donner had already shot most of the Superman II footage during Superman: The Movie. But as production on the sequel continued, creative differences between the director and the film's producers became irreconcilable and Donner left the project. Although Richard Lester was hired to finish production, he chose to make major changes to the film, leaving only vestiges of Donner's original vision and concepts in the version of Superman II that was ultimately released to theaters.
Now, nearly thirty years later, Warner Home Video is honored to grant the wishes of countless Superman fans. With this DVD release, Richard Donner has become the first director in history to be able to complete a film he left during production with nearly all his footage "in the can." Adding back a substantial amount of that unused footage, the director has seen his original vision restored and brought to fruition.
Most notably, the "Donner cut" restores the Marlon Brando role, filmed for, but not included in the final theatrical release version of Superman II. The legendary Brando's performance as Jor-El has finally been restored in key scenes that amplify Superman lore and deepen the profound relationship between father and son.
With so many other changes, large and small, including a variety of Lois Lane (Margot Kidder) schemes to unmask Clark Kent as Superman, this Superman II will prove to be an eye-opening experience and an important addition to film history.
Superman: The Movie (1978/2001) Four-Disc Special Edition
A box-office smash, an Academy Award® winner and a fan favorite since it first flew into theatres in December 1978, Superman: The Movie assembles an "A List" cast and creative contingent. At its heart is Christopher Reeve's intelligent, affectionate portrayal of a most human Man of Steel.
The movie's legacy was amplified when director Richard Donner revisited this beloved adventure 22 years later and integrated eight minutes into the film. Enjoy more footage of the Krypton Council, a glimpse of stars of prior Superman incarnations, more of Jor-El underscoring his son's purpose on Earth and an extended sequence inside Lex Luthor's gauntlet of doom.
Superman II Two-Disc Special Edition (1980)
Unwittingly released from Phantom Zone imprisonment, three super-powered Kryptonian criminals (Terence Stamp, Sarah Douglas and Jack O'Halloran) plan to enslave Earth - just when Superman (Christopher Reeve) decides to show a more romantic side to Lois Lane (Margot Kidder). Gene Hackman (as Lex Luthor) also returns from the first film with a top supporting cast, witty Richard Lester direction and visuals that astound and delight.
Superman III Deluxe Edition (1983)
Meet Gus Gorman (Richard Pryor), a half-witted computer programming wiz. Reeve reprises his role, deepening his character's human side as Clark Kent reunites with old flame Lana Lang (Annette O'Toole) at a Smallville High class reunion. When Superman becomes his own worst enemy after Kryptonite exposure, Reeve plays both roles with dazzling skill.
Superman IV The Quest For Peace (1987)
Christopher Reeve not only stars as the title hero again but also helped develop the movie's provocative theme: nuclear disarmament. To make the world safe for nuclear arms merchants, Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman) creates a new being to challenge the Man of Steel: the radiation-charged Nuclear Man (Mark Pillow).
Supergirl
Creative forces behind Superman: The Movie bring another DC Comics hero to life with this fun- and effects-packed adventure about the Girl of Steel. Helen Slater plays the title role, battling a sorceress (Faye Dunaway) for control of an alien power orb. Peter O'Toole and Mia Farrow add more starpower.

That sucks Superman 2 isn't in the new box set. Maybe Warner Brothers might change it's mind and make it a 10 Disc box set...
Anyways I will still get this set, Superman 2, Supergirl and Superman Returns.

I've never had any intention of getting the box, anyway, since Superman III and IV don't interest me. What annoys me is how the Donner cut of Superman II is separate from everything. People who buy the boxset are going to have that cut isolated from their collection, and people like me who are buying the film separately will have two DVD spines on the shelf that say "Superman II." WB should've made the box set a nine-disc set that includes the Donner cut, and the separate release of Superman II should've been a 3-disc set that included that cut. Other than that, though, the features on the first two (or 2.5) sound great.

The UK's getting an 8 disc box and a 12 disc "tin". Perhaps the US will have two collections too.

Looks like I have to start tracking down the OOP 2-disc edition from Anchor Bay, since it had the international cut, the director's cut, a making-of doc, and I think a still gallery and tv spots...

This wouldn't be a complete Superman thread without someone pointing out the glaringly obvious fact that Superman is a Dick.
