Richard Lester directed the version of Superman 2 that was released to theaters. For decades, Richard Donner's version of the film wasn't available to the public. However, in 2006, his version of the film was released to DVD.

I will go over some of the biggest differences between the theatrical cut and the director's cut:

In the theatrical cut, Superman saves Lois Lane in Paris and gets rid of a bomb. The...

1978's Superman: The Movie is often still considered to be the best Superman film and one of the greatest superhero films of all time. However, I have seen some people complain about certain aspects of the film. I will be sharing my thoughts on those complaints.

Some people think that the film is too cheesy and outdated. I strongly disagree. Superman: The Movie has a timeless feel and is still a powerful, uplifting film to this day. The film is more bright, colorful and family-friendly than a majority of today's superhero films. That's not a problem. In fact, I think that it's something worth...

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is a film that serves as a sequel to 2013's Man of Steel. It's the second film to star Henry Cavill as Superman and the first film to star Ben Affleck as Batman. Man of Steel quickly became one of the most divisive films in superhero history. Did adding Batman as a co-protagonist help the sequel avoid the same fate? No. Batman v Superman is yet another film that got very mixed reactions from audiences. Most critics didn't like the film, but other people were split on it. Some people thought it was an amazing continuation of what was started in Man of Steel,...

The success of the film led to the trend of superhero films that's still going on to this day. In fact, superhero films are now more popular than ever.

1987's Superman 4: The Quest for Peace was the last film that had Christopher Reeve playing Superman. Something that might seem odd about the film is how short it was. The film was only 90 minutes long. The previous three Superman films were all two hours long at the minimum.

The running time for the theatrical releases of the Superman films:

Superman: 143 minutes
Superman 2: 127 minutes
Superman 3: 125 minutes
Superman 4: 90 minutes

Superman 4 being over a half hour shorter than the other films was surprising. Over thirty minutes of content was cut out of the film. You might be wondering why they'd...
