Wow, it's a 13-Disc Release, one that hasn't been announced for R1, including Superman Returns and the Look Up in the Sky! documentary, and it's scheduled for a November 15 release.

Does this confirm November 15 as a release date for Superman Returns?

And more importantly: Will this special set be released on Philippine R3?

the set looks good...was only going to get the 1st two films (in every form of course) but this set looks too nice to pass up on.

The Ultimate Superman Collection... ok... that's WOW!!! But what if Singer does pursue a sequel of Superman Returns, what will be next? Super Ultimate???

RNIverson · « **Reply #36 on:** Sep 04, 2006 at 04:55 PM »

i hope they just release the first 4 films separately, Superman boxset of Christopher Reeve and another for Brandon Routh... i heard bryan singer is making a trilogy so mixing Superman Returns with the old films wont be a collectible afterwards

Very colorful. I think the cover art of the old releases was a bit classier, though. And I find it really weird that they didn't put Richard Pryor on the cover of Superman III.

Here's the one I want to get NOW:

RadicalDude · « **Reply #39 on:** Sep 07, 2006 at 08:53 PM »

Now this one I do really like better.

They did put the name of Richard Donner on the title! I'll have this ordered first, then I'll think about later of the other four. I kind of don't like the way the art covers were designed for these, placing the faces of the other characters just like that on the bottom. November and December is really a pocket draining one with all the gift sets looming.

I wonder if these will get released here in the Philippines, I hope so because it's the only way I'd be able to afford this, plus, I've been holding back to buy the single disc eds cause I've been waiting for these. Hmm..I wish...

Any word of a release in R3?

I believe they would also release this in R3 just like how Warner treated The Batman Anthology.

Considering that these are special deluxe editions, the artworks are really ugly. It looked like an amateur cover artist did these. I agree with Mr. Hankey in saying that the artworks of the original releases were classier.

I find them really cheesy! for me best would be different depictions of the S logo. Like one is the traditional red & yellow, silver, maybe gold or even black & red.

The Donner Cut's price is $16.99 in Amazon. Just pre-ordered it immediately after seeing it.

Just noticed it, Amazon listed the running time for the Donner's Cut as 116 minutes, whereas the Special Edition is 127 minutes. Is this really as it is? Hoping someone could give more details on the difference.

Oh wow.

They changed the cover art of the Donner cut from this:

To this:

Warner, what the frak is wrong with you people??? I mean, of all the new "Superman" releases, the original cover art of the Donner cut was the only one I thought looked presentable! This new one looks like - a cartoon parody or something.

Baka naman na-inspire sa art cover ng DVD na to?

Superman · « **Reply #49 on:** Sep 21, 2006 at 07:18 PM »

alright, gotta save up for this...

RadicalDude · « **Reply #50 on:** Sep 22, 2006 at 08:15 AM »

Pre-ordered the Donner Cut before from Amazon @ $16.99. Now, the price listed is $17.49. And the art cover shown above is already displayed at Amazon's web site. So, I guess the art cover's final.

wow the picture and the price gave me goosebumps!

av_phile1 · « **Reply #58 on:** Sep 23, 2006 at 01:07 PM »

$100 online excluding shipping for 16 discs is a great bargain.

Very tempting to get.

Nakakapanghinayang lang. With the inevitablity of DVDs becoming junk in 3 years, accdg to some early HD adopters.

Though maybe not that soon here.

But no doubt the contents should be timeless in themselves.

seph1018 · « **Reply #59 on:** Sep 23, 2006 at 07:24 PM »

I'm sure pre-order price will be lower and the reported local release might be even reasonable. This is a definite must-have for me.
