its a good film, but because of how controversial the character is because of the love for the franchise people have just become prejudiced against the film, religion is to blame for most peoples prejudges against anything, but anyway its does have the best saving scene which counts because its a superhero film... its what they do!
I see it topping the dvd charts for a few weeks anyway, im getting the dvd from hong kong that's being released on the 26th of october, the damn idiots left an english version on the dvd so it's the version we're going to get 2 months later... well in england we're getting it two months later... but not me!
p.s. the two disc edition not the single as well
The Superman Returns DVD IMO will be a lot like the Batman Begins DVD in that a lot of people will catch it for the first time in this format and see just how good it is. It's kind of like what happened with the Hulk movie, which had some really long legs during it's DVD and rental run. (Same thing happened with the Punisher DVD too). What this means is that once the Superman sequel comes out it'll have a much larger box office because of it.
Here's a list of the deleted scenes in this DVD:
"The Date"
"Family Photos"
"Crash Landing / X-Ray Vision"
"Old Newspapers"
"Are You Two Dating?"
"Martinis & Wigs"
"I'm Always Right"
"Jimmy the Lush"
"Language Barrier"
"Crystal Feet"
"New Krypton"
What's strange is that the "Return to Krypton" scene, the one most people are interested in seeing, is not included here. I've read rumors that there's suppose to be some extended edition coming out sometime in the future that'll have it there along with more scenes. Don't you just hate it when movie studios do this?
Also that "New Krypton" scene supposedly gives a vague hint as to what might be an item in the sequel. I haven't seen the scene yet, but at least according to the novel that new continent Superman pushed into space eventually settled somewhere between Jupiter and Saturn, with Lois Lane dubbing it to Perry White as New Krypton. And it is continuing to grow. This might be a very interesting item for the next sequel.
Originally posted by roughriderSomewhat irrelevant aside: Actually Warner recently decided that they would fence-sit and release films on both formats. Which now means of the major studios only Universal is exclusively HD-DVD, while three of the big six are still Blu-Ray exclusive, including of course Sony Pictures. And considering in 2006 Universal's market share was only about 10% of the movie industry, things aren't looking good for HD-DVD on the movie DVD front.
They are supposed to have a greatly superior capacity for storing data, which should mean even better picture and sound than HD-DVD. That's the main difference. HD-DVD is cheaper to produce, though. 25 years ago, that's how VHS won the war with Beta, even though Beta was supposed to be a better format.
Coupled with Sony's PS3 being of course exclusively Blu-Ray, and PC manufacturers like Dell and HP backing Blu-Ray it's shaping up to be the "next VHS." It's unlikely this will play out with one of the formats becoming completely obsolete like VHS/Betamax, mainly due to Microsoft and Intel still backing HD-DVD.
So there will probably be an HD-DVD version out at some point.

So long as the DVD players can only play one format or the other, one is going to become obsolete. You can't play a HD-DVD in a Blu-Ray player, and vice versa.
Blu-Ray still has the problem of major tech problems in it's players. That's something which should occupy their attention.
And I did see Warners is releasing SR in both formats. Until every company does that, the war will continue until one format is pushed aside.
