I've actually just spent the last two nights creating my own cut of II. Which is now completed and authored. I did it purely for my own pleasure to create a cut that I could consider to be canonical. Which means the Paris scene back in, and the magic kiss at the end. Most of the middle of the film is the Donner cut, Brando back in and York out. all the extra Luthor stuff included. But with the addition of extra Niagra scenes, including the original clark to superman reveal. All the action sequences are Donner cut, which means stupid lester humour is gone. So what I have now is a more serious, but hopefully more complete viewing experience of the film. It's got the Donner opening titles and the Lester End titles, just to balnce it out. PAL running time is 2 hours and 6 minutes.

NONE has commented on this!

Great job, Jobel. Say, what do you think of that film now? Do you feel its better in some way? Will you make it available?


Thanks. I think as a film it's more enjoyable now. If I were to show somebody that had never seen the films before I would show them my version of II.

Although I've had some experience of editing before over the years, this is my first fan edit of a film. I'm not up on torrents and stuff, and I'm based in the UK, so maybe if I could get a disc out to a UK member who could maybe take it from there.
