Finally, The Christopher Reeve Superman Collection ($79.92 SRP) will be offered in an 8-disc boxed set including all the above (except Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut).

Er komt dus blijkbaar geen 14 disc. Enkel de 8 disc box met daarin Superman The Movie (4 disc), Superman 2 S.E. ( 2 disc), Superman 3 D.E.(1 disc) en Superman IV D.E. (1 disc)... Dan heb je nog de nieuwe Donner cut niet van Superman 2. Vind ik maar beetje lame, terwijl ze van Batman en The Matrix wel een volledige box uitgegeven hebben.

Idd 'n beetje vreemd dat The Richard Donner Cut niet in de box zal zitten. Wat Supergirl betreft... ik hou 't lekker bij m'n 2-Disc LE van Anchor Bay.

Ik ook, da's een veel betere uitgave dan waar Warner nu mee komt.

Als je die ooit zou willen verkopen, denk dan even aan mij :wink:

Warner Bros. Engeland heeft de Christopher Reeve Superman Collection aangekondigd voor een release op 20 november a.s. In tegenstelling tot de Amerikaanse release zal de Richard Donner-versie van Superman II niet los uitgebracht worden, maar deel uitmaken van de 3-disc Special Edition van Superman II.

Het persbericht:

The Christopher Reeve Superman Collection (R2) in November

On 20th November 2006 Warner Home Video will release a host of UK Region 2 DVDs, all starring the late Christopher Reeve in his landmark portrayal of the Man of Steel. Leading the way will be Superman II Three Disc Special Edition, containing Richard Lester’s ever-popular theatrical cut and the long-awaited Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut directed by Donner and representing Superman II as it was originally conceived and intended to be filmed. An overwhelmingly requested title, the movie features Donner’s original footage, shot but never used before, including a never-before-seen beginning, a never-before-seen resolution, with 15 minutes of restored footage of Marlon Brando as Jor-El and much more.

Other titles to be released include Superman: The Movie Four Disc Special Edition which features both the DVD debut of the 1978 theatrical version as well as the 2001 extended edition with commentary from director Richard Donner and Tom Mankiewicz, archival footage of additional scenes and screen tests.

Finally The Christopher Reeve Superman Collection presents a 9-disc boxed set including all the above as well as Superman III and IV Deluxe Editions.

Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut (Presented on Disc 3)

Superman II will delight fans who, for years, have been imploring Warner Home Video via voluminous numbers of petitions, letters, phone calls and e-mails to release the Donner cut. In fact, Donner had already shot most of the Superman II footage during Superman: The Movie. But as production on the sequel continued, creative differences between the director and the film’s producers became irreconcilable and Donner left the project. Although Richard Lester was hired to finish production, he chose to make major changes to the film, leaving only vestiges of Donner’s original vision and concepts in the version of Superman II that was ultimately released to theatres.

Now, nearly thirty years later, Warner Home Video is honoured to grant the wishes of countless Superman fans. With this DVD release, Richard Donner has become the first director in history to be able to complete a film he left during production with nearly all his footage “in the can.” Adding back a substantial amount of that unused footage, the director has seen his original vision restored and brought to fruition.

Most notably, the “Donner cut” restores the Marlon Brando role, filmed for, but not included in the final theatrical release version of Superman II. The legendary Brando’s performance as Jor-El has finally been restored in key scenes that amplify Superman lore and deepen the profound relationship between father and son.

With so many other changes, large and small, including a variety of Lois Lane (Margot Kidder) schemes to unmask Clark Kent as Superman, this Superman II will prove to be an eye-opening experience and an important addition to film history.

DVD Special Features:
- All new introduction by director Richard Donner
- Commentary by director Richard Donner and creative consultant Tom Mankiewicz
- New featurette Superman II: Restoring the Vision
- Additional scenes

Superman: The Movie (1978/2001) Four-Disc Special Edition

A box-office smash, an Academy Award winner and a fan favourite since it first flew into theatres in December 1978, Superman: The Movie assembles a cast and creative contingent as only a big movie can. At its heart (just as in three sequels) is Christopher Reeve’s intelligent, affectionate portrayal of a most human Man of Steel. Watching Superman again isn’t just like being a kid again. It’s better.

The movie’s legacy soared even higher when director Richard Donner revisited this beloved adventure 22 years later and integrated eight minutes into the film. Enjoy more footage of the Krypton Council, a glimpse of stars of prior Superman incarnations, more of Jor-El underscoring his son’s purpose on Earth and an extended sequence inside Lex Luthor’s gauntlet of doom. Reeve, Marlon Brando (Jor-El), Gene Hackman (Luthor) and Margot Kidder (Lois Lane) give indelible performances that fuel the film’s aura of legend.

The Christopher Reeve Superman Collection

Includes all of the above discs plus:

Superman III Deluxe Edition (1983)

After Superman: The Movie’s epic storytelling and Superman II’s awesome battles, how could the first two hits be topped? In Superman III, meet Gus Gorman (Richard Pryor), a half-witted computer programming natural. For him a keyboard is a weapon – and Superman faces the microelectronic menace of his life. Christopher Reeve reprises his most beloved role, deepening his character’s human side as Clark Kent reunites with old flame Lana Lang (Annette O’Toole) at a Smallville High class reunion. And when Superman becomes his own worst enemy after Kryptonite exposure, Reeve pulls off both roles with dazzling skill. Incredible visual effects abound – but above all it has heart, heroism and high-flying humor. All in superabundance.

DVD Special Features:
- Commentary by executive producer Ilya Salkind and producer Pierre Spengler
- Vintage TV special The Making of Superman III
- Additional scenes
- Theatrical trailer

Superman IV The Quest For Peace

Christopher Reeve not only dons the title hero’s cape for the fourth time but also helped develop the movie’s provocative theme: nuclear disarmament. “For me, it’s the most personal of the entire series,” Reeve said. “It directly reflects what Superman should be, and should be doing.” Superman does a lot this time around. To make the world safe for nuclear arms merchants, Lex Luthor (Gene Hackman) creates a new being to challenge the Man of Steel: the radiation-charged Nuclear Man (Mark Pillow). The two foes clash in an explosive extravaganza that sees Superman save the Statue of Liberty, plug a volcanic eruption of Mount Etna and rebuild the demolished Great Wall of China.

DVD Special Features:
- Commentary by screenwriter Mark Rosenthal
- Additional scenes
- Theatrical trailer

Wat was er zo goed aan die Supergirl film? (te lang geleden gezien, kan me er niks meer van herinneren). Ik zag die 2-disc LE wel op amazon maar voor $ 73,-??!! Kan me niet voorstellen dat tie dat waard is....

Ik hoop dat die 9 disc set op Play klopt met Superman 2 Donner cut en zonder Supergirl.

$ 73,- is de DVD inderdaad niet waard, maar de R0 LE bevat meer extra's dan de Warner-versie en bovendien 2 versies van de film: de internationale bioscoopversie en de director's cut. Over de film valt een hoop te discussieëren, maar de DVD die Warner onlangs in diverse landen heeft uitgebracht of binnenkort nog gaat uitbrengen verbleekt in vergelijking met de LE.

Ik hoop dat die 9 disc set op Play klopt met Superman 2 Donner cut en zonder Supergirl.

De 9-disc set bevat inderdaad geen Supergirl, Warner heeft deze onlangs los uitgebracht.

JAAAA.... eindelijk wat artwork!

Dat ziet er goed uit!

[Annemie]

Ziet er toch wel mooi uit hoor.

[Jurgen V]

Zeer mooi.

[RainMan]

Helaas zien de definitieve covers van de individuele uitgaves er wat minder uit:

http://www.dvdactive.com/news/releases/superman5.html

[Smooth-J]

Welke regio/ versie was deze nou?

[Lorre]

Deze die je hier ziet is de regio 1 versie. En is het zeker dat die artwork die DanielC poste echt is? Want vind de foto er wat nep uitzien door de slechte kwaliteit en nog steeds geen officiele verpakking gezien voor de box.

[RainMan]

Hier de trailer van de nieuwe Superman DVD's

Deze trailer laat ook de definitieve artwork zien van de Christopher Reeve Collectie en Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut, en hele coole (nieuwe) fragmenten van laatst genoemde. Die zien er erg goed uit! Ik kan niet wachten!

Ik denk wel dat het artwork van regio 2 dvd's er anders en misschien zelfs beter uit zullen zien. Hetzelfde geval als met de SE's van de Batman films, waar imo de regio 2 covers er beter uit zagen dan de regio 1 versies.

[Melvinrijk]

Hier de Cover van de Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut.



En de cover van The Christopher Reeve Superman Collection.



Ik ben echt benieuwd naar The Richard Donner Cut. De beelden zijn echt geweldig, en hoe ze het gewoon voor elkaar hebben gekregen om een geheel nieuwe film te maken met nieuwe beelden. Ook al heb ik hem niet gezien deze film wordt denk ik zelfs beter dan de originele Superman II van nu.

[DanielC]

dat laatste weet ik zo net nog niet.... ik ben een groot fan van deel 2 zoals ie nu is. Het is mijn favoriete sueprheldfilm... dus ik weet niet of ik em beter ga vinden.

[RainMan]

De covers van de Christopher Reeve set en de Donner Cut, die in de trailer voorkomen, zijn helaas nog niet definitief. Ook het artwork van de Ultimate box set is nog work-in-progress.

Warner Bros had capedwonder.com het volgende te melden:

"Unfortunately, the box art in the trailer for the Donner Cut is not correct so they are fixing it. Regarding The Christopher Reeve Superman Collection, we have not received approved finalized artwork for this. Unfortunately, your fans are just going to have to wait regarding the Ultimate box set as we don't have any news as yet. We will make sure you are part of the initial announce when we do announce."

[RainMan]

Eén woord: WOW!
