I actually didn’t mind Superman Returns as much as most people seem to. I admit there was some weak moments and the plot is basically a remake of the first Superman film.
But there is a group of intrepid fans trying to petition for WB to release a version cut by Bryan Singer’s vision of the movie. Now petitions are about as effective as asking Uwe Boll to stop making movies but it is interesting to consider it.
The website SupermanReturnsTheBryansingerCut is asking fans of the film to sign a petition to get Warner brothers to release the director’s cut of the film. I know a lot of people didn’t like Superman Returns so they won’t give a crap. But I’m always down to see the movie the director wanted me to see.
I would be willing to give a chance to a Director’s Cut of Superman Returns.
Here is the clumsy fake trailer the enthusasts put together with some of the concept art and speculate on what a Singer Cut would look like.
I know a lot of people didn’t care for Superman Returns, and its far from a perfect movie. But what if the Singer Cut made it feel completely different? Obviously he wouldnt be cutting out things like Superkid, so that you would still have to deal with.
Could this change the feeling of a Superman Reboot?
