Hey gang I just UPDATED my Superman III: The Salkind Extended Television Version DVD!!!

I'll add it to the upload list sometime in the next few days


NEW –
Superman III: The Salkind Extended Television Version (Upgraded Version!)
Angrysun DVD authoring of a Chad Stevens VHS transfer

Superman III was released in summer 1983 with a running time of 123 minutes (117 minutes PAL UK). The extended cut was first shown on ABC in 1985 with an extra 20 minutes of added footage; the running time was 143 minutes. Again this extended edition was produced by Alexander Salkind’s company.

Upgraded DVD with a newer VHS transfer that was on a dual-layer disc with much higher bitrate (5.5gigs vs. the old 3.4gig version), this VHS transfer also offers brighter colors and better saturation (flesh tones look almost real!) there is some artifacting during heavy motion but overall I feel it's much nicer – This transfer has the complete end titles and there are NO station ID’s.

Also added to this new edition is the very rare “The Making of Superman III” – transferred from a PAL Beta tape, I have converted the file to NTSC for compatibility; another addition is “Superman: The Mechanical Monsters” by the Fleischer Bros. from 1941 (I felt it followed the theme)
