I just watched my dvd of the Donner Cut....and I'm blown away. As much as I loved the RIC version, this is pretty much the closest to the definitive version of Superman II to me.....


EXCEPT for the ending. I loath the amnesia kiss ending of the Lester cut, but the fact that he returns to the diner is very bothersome. I really like the "return to the diner" sequence, but with the "let's spin the world around again" part, it's out of place and makes no sense...

But I personally do not accept that shitty amneisa kiss.... I haven't since i read an issue of Comic Scene that explained in detail the Donner cut of Superman II back in the late 80s. As much as "return to the diner" doesn't work, I'll keep it like it is, just for a version that doesn't have that shitty amnesia kiss crap.

As for the fact that Supes isn't in it until Niagra Falls....Batman isn't in Batman Begins for a while too (forget the time in the movie, but it's pretty long into it).

I will see who does what of the fanedits and see what is on the up and up and will probably grab a couple that I like.
