Superman Returns (Alternate Opening)

This is a slightly different version of the Superman Returns opening title sequence.

The picture has been regraded to better improve colour, contrast and definition, and there are a few minor cosmetic changes along the way too.

People dont give Superman Returns enough credit and it is really a loving homage to Christopher Reeves Superman. One of the few film sequels that actually has the same feel as the original films. I Like the bit with his ship just speeding away from Krypton, was nice how you just slightly put that in. Yes way better than the cinematic version.

Personally I prefer this idea of the dedication at the beginning rather than at the end. Makes it even more worthwhile than it already was. And it was 100% worthwhile.

They are starring a Brit as Superman which is like a knife through Superman's heart. That is so wrong on many levels. Superman is a pure American, not a Birt trying to be one.

That's how it should have been done! The dedication to Christopher and Dana Reeve ALWAYS belonged at the beginning of the movie, not in the middle of the end credits (which makes it seem more like an afterthought).

Superman Returns was a great movie. I like they kept John Williams theme, the special effects were amazing and the story was great and despite being too young for the role Brandon Routh did a job as Superman almost closely resembling Chirs Reeve. The only issues I had with it were Superman having a son, his suit, the fact they used Lex Luthor for a 4th time instead of using another Superman villian but other then that it was great.

I liked SUPERMAN RETURNS, but as good as the movie was, I feel this movie didn't stand the test of time. SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE is still the best of them easily. Great job with the edit.

Superman Returns is Perfect .... until the opening credits end. Then the problems start.

God I hope they keep up this homage to the Reeve movies (music etc) in the upcoming "Man of Steel"

Superman returns was an awesome movie... That said I think the biggest problem it had was not with brandon routh or bryan singer (directly) I think It had to do more with the casting of the supporting players, Out of the main three I liked Jimmy the best, but something was missing, the Chief is good, but almost too much of a charicature, in acting he doesn't strike me as being a serious news man. Kate bosworth simply lacks the witty, spunky personality that makes lois lois...

@pbanta62 True, but those comic-book images are so epic and synonymous with Superman that it's hard not to cheer at them.

But I agree, that planet was a truly spectacular image.
