After 30 years, and voluminous numbers of petitions, letters, calls, and emails from fans, the Richard Donner Cut of Superman II has finally come to be. Hired as the original director, Richard Donner and the producers parted ways during the filming due to artistic differences, and Richard Lester was hired to complete the job, choosing to make major changes in the film. Now back at the helm, Richard Donner has added a substantial amount of unused footage, and has seen his original version restored. (Jack Kelley)
