You're right. The squeaky wheel gets the oil. :-)

There never would have been a Donner Cut of Superman II if the fans had kept quiet.

 

 is that true? i read up on the history of it, and Donner didn't want anything to do it for quite

some time ......

=>In May 2001, he told the website IGN, "At the time, the studio wanted me to go back in and re-cut the film and add anything I wanted to add or do anything I wanted to do. Quite honestly, I was done with it. I was finished."

and the studio was ready to go on without him anyway,

=>Work finally began on the project in late 2005, though without Richard Donner.

dont you think the studio was committed to doing the project whether the fans wanted it

or not? they were doing restoration on superman, so why not do superman 2 also?

 

later
