Great work! That scene has always bugged me. That S-symbol weapon was just stupid and completely weak.

Thank you very much! As you said, the S-symbol weapon is just stupid. Lester created "new powers" only to show more special effects (very poor by the way).

Clever. Very clever. I always hated the finally of this flick lacking an impact of action. I know we had a big bad Rumble in Metropolis but still. And I know Supes outwits them and that should certainly be kept, supes is not brawn. But it still needed more fight to fight stuff. Anyway, wut U did here is great. I don't know why, but I thought the "S" wrap was pretty neat. I wasn't complaining, if I did I'd have to complain about the whole around the world thing, and the white beams.

I agree with you. The final of the film needs more action. I think lester "try" to put that in the film. But not vere well done...

Prettty cool. It was a little too abrubt though. I like pedalero's suggestion of showing a shot of Supes before he uses the heat vision to slow things down a bit.

Thanks! Maybe if you see only this scene you may think is a little abrupt. But when you see in the film not because superman is hidden in the fortress until this. Before this, I put the scene with the fortress force field.

Thanks they released The Richard Donner Cut!! This Symbol weapon and the kiss-brainwasher at the end is morronic! not to mention the "I'm sorry Mr. President, I was gettin laid, sorry"

Great variation. Top Marks.

But as a small kid who grew up in the 80's I'll always have a soft spot for the original version. If it was in the comics first, there would never be a problem with fans.

Makes more sense than the cellophane "S"

[jamalnasir1975]

I always hated the Lester version..

[TheLamiaknights]

ok I like what you did there but the funny plastic S is one of the resions why this film is as awsem as it is.

[therealcaptain40]

this is how it should of been, blasting people with heat vision.

[aigomar]

This scene can't be from the Richard Donner cut, can it?

[YAROITF]

Much better than the original :)

[jayce79]

I miss the Cellaphane 'S'. That's just about as weird.

[msmithstud]

i always thought the seran S was a bit cheesy. Clearly a Lester idea. Sorry, Dick. I hated the invisibility between S and the villains. Donner's fortress scenes are a whole lot better. The only problem after S eliminates the villains, you see them being arrested by the arctic police while S, Lois, and Luther are outside the fortress. In my tape of the ABC cut, ABC did a pretty good job of editing out the villains being arrested, but in one scene you can see Non in the background being escorted.

Much better than his brand new super power of hurling cling-film at bad guys (who understandably look confused)
