interesting, I didn't think that could be done even HALF as convincing as that - it would be interesting to see how far he can get using only what is available to the common fan - just to prove that it can be done well... I mean Richard Donner did great with his cut that was released, especially with the new superman/villains fight scene, but I'd love to see a FULL realization...

But then again, that is totally Donner's call in some respects... Just because it was in the shooting script doesn't mean it will make it into the movie - the real story telling is in the editing, and often, lopping off of stuff that you find out AFTER shooting doesn't work as well as originally thought.

With the exception of the ending I think Donner's cut stands out as the best of the 2, even if it's limited by what was shot 25 years ago
