Well, it was better than Superman Returns - but that's not saying much.
Actually I really like the Supergirl movie but I already have the Anchor Bay limited edition 2-disc set so I can't really see any reason to buy this - not to mention they've made the cover art on this (and the other four Superman movies) look really cheap - okay they're priced low but would it hurt to make them look nice too?
Superman franchise should all get face lifts to their cover art. Wow, a 6th year old has better imagination of what the cover arts could be. Don't ge me wrong, Photoshop is great. But isn't their budget worth more than these silly artworks??
I'll definitely get this! I missed out on it last time when it went out of print. It's not that great but I look at it as just a regular 80s fantasy movie than really a Superman spinoff/superhero movie.
Oh yes. I loved this movie so I'm getting this when it comes out!
OMG that artwork stinks! If you were lucky enough to get the Anchor Bay 2-disc, there is really no need for this.
Man, Peter O'Toole and Faye Dunaway must've really needed the money. Not to mention Mia Farrow, Brenda Vacarro and Peter Cook.
You'd think with that much talent wandering around, and an incredibly beautiful girl who was born to wear that costume, they would've gotten soemething even accidentally right!
But sadly, NO!!! This movie is horrible! I had to laugh out loud when Anchor Bay released that two-disc set four years ago with a "Director's Cut". Fourteen minutes of more c**p is just that; more c**p.

Yes I agree, the artwork is horribly photoshopped. Where do the studios find these people? And why do they allow them to get away with such poor quality work?
Ah! Helen Slater . . . my first crush on a movie actress!! Film's pretty dumb, but I'll pick it up just for nostalgia value!!!!
Pretty that she was. Fake that she was. 1# she was a brunette. 2# costume enhancements. Granted they surely made supergirl one attractive alien.
As mentionned above, the cover art reflects the movie. All that talent, horrible plot.
If you'd ask me they should have had a cameo with Chris Reeve, perfect set up for Superman 5. Having finally captured Superman in a cage of Kryptonite, Lex ( Gene Hackman) is oblivious as is Superman of the existance of his cousin. Then make a sequel ending with SuperGirl on a movie of her own.
I know 20 years too late....!

my god what happened?....it doesnt look like her at all on the cover of even the disc art...and the disc art actually looks like a different girl than the cover..lol
That's a man's face on the cover, right? It sure looks that way to me. Very, very odd...
which cut of the movie is thi, inernational cut or diector's cut
Seriously, that cover is uglier than the ones for the Christopher Reeve Superman re-releases and Superman Returns. Can't studios see the relative simplicity of using poster art for their DVD covers?
Not to mention Helen Slater's face looks extremely airbrushed and this rush job puts Photoshop to shame.

I'd hit it, 80's style!

This disc will have the 124-minute international cut of the film.

I have the 2 disk internationl version.....I liked the directors cut
I presume that commentary is ported over from the Anchor Bay International version, which I have. No need to pick this up.
I hate the cover
Gosh Warner, you keep putting out c**ppy cover art at a record pace. Is anyone planning on actually buying this, anyway?
Isn't this identical to the R2 disc that came out in June in pretty much every way bar the ratings logos?

I do. I always liked it, and it's a lot better than "Superman 3" and "4" are.

Speaking of the Superman movies, whatever happened to the press release and the cover art for "Superman Returns"? (It was there a few hours ago.) Is Warner actually revising the covers?
I hope so...
I hope so...
What is that?
Unfortunately we got hold of the information a little too early and as a result we have pulled it offline until it can be officially approved.
Dammit, I thought they were revising the art for the DVD... Any chance of it happening, Mal?
Yes, there is a chance that we got an early version of the artwork or maybe they'll use the opportunity to refine the design based on the comments, but we won't know until the approved stuff arrives.
Though not the best movie, still, I have a special place in my viewing heart for this film.
What the bloody hell is wrong with Warner Bros! These covers are absolutely pathetic!

God I really hope they do revise the artwork for the SR discs! and as for Supergirl I remember liking it when I was young.. don't think i've seen it since. So maybe i'll get it as a nostalgic thing and I love everything Superman
