I'm one of the main culprits behind the "Superman Returns" tangent. I was just trying to point out how (in my opinion) the ending onf the Donner Cut doesn't make sense on any level: not as a sequel to S:TM, not as a conclusion to SII, and not as a prequel to SR. Bizzle sees things differently based on his interpretation of the time traveling, and that's his opinion. I think all of this debate could be solved by a simple "seamless branching" option on a fan edit of II. I don't know if that can be done on a non-professional DVD, but if so that would take care of the differences of opinion on the ending without having to make multiple fan cuts. Option 1 would be the ending as per the Donner Cut, Option 2 would be as per the Lester Cut, and Option 3 would have Lois keep the secret and go like this: Balcony/Diner/White House/Flyover. I'm no expert in DVD authoring, but hopefully that can be accomplished.
