    Superman II - Danger of footage deteriorating!

    Lost footage of one of the greatest actors of all time? Lost work of legendary cinematographer Geoffrey Unsworth? Even if we are all getting our hopes up over the footage, surely it demands to be seen? As a keen film academic and historian I think that a re-cut and re-stored SII would not...

    Superman II - Danger of footage deteriorating!

    Great post Larry. Couldn't agree more. So there are tons of legal issues and it was 20 years ago. So what!! Campaigns like this are what makes DVD so special and a reason to believe that there is still MAGIC in filmmaking. The fans want it and the footage is there. The work of Brando...

    Warner Bros. – We Want A Richard Donner Re-Cut of Superman II

    I couldn't agree more! This would be quite simply like no other Special Edition or Director's Cut ever! We're not talking about a couple of minutes of extended scenes - we're talking about sensational footage featuring one of the greatest actors that ever lived. This simply cannot be left to...
