November 4, 2006: “Superman II: The Donner Cut” Screening Report

Due to circumstances beyond his control Jeffrey Bridges missed out on attending the November 2nd screening of "Superman II: The Donner Cut" in Hollywood, however JiveGuy at SupermanCinema.co.uk filed a preliminary report on their forums with more to come soon...

    Cool things about the night...

  • Richard Donner, Margot Kidder, Brandon Routh, Bryan Singer, Sam Huntington, Sarah Douglas, Jack O'Holloran, Marc McClure, Tom Mankewicz, and Mike Thau were in attendance.

  • I took the stairs and accidentally came in through the back which led me right into the VIP party so i got to see them in person, up close. (Didn't speak to them though). They served Kryptontinis at the bar.

  • Here's something you won't hear ANYWHERE. Ilya Salkind was in attendance, sitting in the back. After the screening in the post QandA Margot Kidder was speaking highly about Donner and about how much better this version of the film was and Ilya yelled out from the back "NO IT'S NOT" and walked to the back of the screening room, pissed. interesting eh?

  • Everyone got a free copy of the new Action Comics issue, co-written by Richard Donner.

His report also includes answers to some questions posed by fans regarding the movie. Check it out.

There's also an Initial Report up at the same website, in which Ilya Salkind mentions his love of the Superman Homepage. You can also take a look at the official invitation for the screening.

You can pre-order "Superman II: The Donner Cut" as a stand-alone DVD or as part of the 14-disc Superman Ultimate Collector's Edition box set. Both will be released on November 28th.
