I finally finished the second part last night. For me, the first part was definitely a more successful edit, perhaps because there was only one director on the first movie rather than the 2 for SII. For the most part, things worked well, although I felt some of the cuts during the big street battle seemed a little too abrupt, but that might have been me watching it late at night!

I like the ending but feel the footage used could be done a little more subtley - is there anything that could be done to smooth it down a bit? There are two shots of Superman which stick out as zoomed in shots of him. I appreciate there isn't a great deal of footage available to use so creating a new ending to tie in with Superman Returns will be difficult to do. Also, the news reporter is sitting in a studio marked Metropolis Morning News...so why are they all watching at nightime, or is this meant to be very early morning?

Thanks for answering my comments...it's been a hard slog, but definitely a worthy edit of a classic superhero movie!
