I much prefer the 2000 cut over the 1978 cut because it contains additional scenes - like the "gauntlet" scene- which is great. A lot of Superman purists don't like the extra scenes in the 2000 version because they think it slows the movie down. But, I like them- mainly because they were shot at the time the film was being made and they add a little depth to the film, IMO. The 2000 cut also has a remixed soundtrack, which some fans don't like.

The only viable films I see at the moment would be the recent lowry/dts digital 4k scan of the bond movies that is only on dvd, the 2k scan they did of both the indiana jones movies and the 2004 edition of star wars trilogy.

And yes, the blu-ray and hd-dvd releases of superman the movie are indeed the 2000 cut.
Is that bad? Is there something wrong with the 2000 cut?

The Wizard of OZ has been given the hi-res treatment too, so it should be out on blu-ray/hd-dvd sometime soon.
