DHP wrote:I honestly thought there was more love for Superman than this when I created the poll. Given that it was written by 2-time oscar winner Mario Puzo (effectively giving superheroes the credibility that Paul Haggis gave James Bond in Casino Royale), starred heavyweight actors Gene Hackman and Marlon Brando, and with one of the finest scores since Wagner decided to put tunes together for Der Ring Das Nieblungen, not to mention it served as the basis for films like Batman and Spider-Man, I did always think there was at least more appreciation for the original.

DHP wrote:I watched the Donner Cut of Superman II recently, and it felt like a completely different film to me, especially having watched the theatrical cut recently to compare it with. Scenes were either completely different (love the new start to link it with the original, and the excellent Brando/Reeve scenes), or existing scenes were extended/re-edited to make it a more serious, darker film than the original. Seriously, in the theatrical cut, what the heck was that teleporting/cloning nonsense about in the fortress of solitude?
All in all, a great film and a worthy addition to Superman: The Movie.
