Superman 2 was the movie that got my interseted in fan editing. But i gotta be honest, after seeing 15-20 edits at this point, I'm pretty much burnt out lol. Booshman is still working on his edit, and with his VFX skills, I'm still very excited to see what he's got in store. Plus there's a lot of edit ideas I've been sitting on for years that, thankfully, Booshman likes and has been incorporating into his edit (at this point I don't care if my name doesn't appear under the title, just that these ideas come to fruition).

Plus for me, the Donner Cut got so many things wrong that I think a 50/50 of both versions, plus new ideas to correct things that are wrong in both versions, is the only way to go. Since that's what fans like myself had been asking for in the first place thanks to the tv edit of the film which was really that 50/50 balance all along.

I apologize if my comments aren't what you wanna hear, but I've gotta leave for work soon and don't have time to really put my thoughts into your cut list, but FWIW, at this point, not having video effects skills really hinders what can be done to fix this movie, that hasn't been done already by other editors (including myself, so don't think I'm pointing fingers).
