Sweet mother of God, it's even more holy than I could have ever imagined! I'll never badmouth WB again. Everything about this looks absolutely perfect, even the price. Only $100 suggested retail for 14 discs?!? You know places like Best Buy and Amazon will have it for only $75. This really is the year of Superman!

3 and 4 have their camp value, worth at least once or twice for a few chuckles.
They're not good movies, but I have a soft spot for them.
Thank you WB. You have restored my faith.

This is really awesome! I was going to order this from another country but now I can just get from the good old U.S. of A!!
Now THIS is what I'm talking about! Under the Christmas tree this will be
GOOD GOD, THANK YOU WARNER BROS, THANK YOU. I was very upset by the art and info on the christopher reeve set, BUT, You have now made me VERY HAPPY!!!
I WILL BUY THIS WITHOUT A DOUBT!!!
I WILL BUY THIS WITHOUT A DOUBT!!!
Holy. C**p. Now THAT'S more like it Warner Brothers. Now I see why you've made the artwork for the seperate films so c**ppy - so people will buy this instead. And I'm sorely tempted.
See the response something CLASSY is getting from people here Warner Brothers if you are reading.
So, it has Superman 78, Superman II (both versions), plus III and IV and Returns and all the documentaries. Cause, wow, I'm there, and it's only $100! Wow, that's about how much I was probably going to spend just on Returns, The Movie and The Donner Cut of II. But if I can get that much more for only a few bucks extra than I'm definitly there.
Wow. This is amazingly beautiful box set and it goes way beyond anything I could have imagined WB to come up with.
I only had plans to purchases Superman, Superman 2 and Superman Returns but I'm on for this collection. The real hook, line and sinker for me besides the artwork is the Amazing Story documentary.

Looking at both the Christopher Reeves Box Set of the Superman movies, and The Ultimate Collection which one is better? Is it this one because it contains Superman Returns and extra discs?
Superman Returns is the ultimate extra feature !!! I actually am SUPER-Interested in that offer for the reproductions of the Theatrical posters THAT WARNER SHOULD HAVE USED FOR THE BOX ART !!!!!! THIS IS SOOOOOOOOOOO MINE. I hate that Kevin smith's 2nd Q&A and Clerks 2 comes out the same day . Time to start saving ......
OMG!!!! BEST DVD NEWS ALL YEAR!!! (Actually, ever, really... for me, at least)
I honestly thought this wasn't going to happen.
I LOVE YOU, WARNER BROS.!!!!

Sublime Package!!!
Oh WOW!!!
Screw Christmas! I'm getting that first day!!!
Screw Christmas! I'm getting that first day!!!
Now that is some good art.
Damn, that is more like it. I am going to be so tempted by this. I wonder if R2 will get something similar? And now I won't have to worry about looking at any awful artwork. And what a sweet price!! I can't believe they are being so nice to the fans, finally. It rarely ever happens. WB was definately holding out for this one. THANK YOU WB!!!!
About frickin' time they announced this! So this has everything that is being made available seperately except for the Supergirl DVD - right?
Slightly upset that I won't get the posters (as I'm in the UK but will be buying the US release) but I can't complain as this set definately gives me enough reasons to pick it up even though I'm double-dipping on a lot of it!
Also anyone know what that Superman Returns newspaper thing is in the picture?

I am also quite glad they didn't include Supergirl as I have the 2 disc LE and didn't want to sell it. Makes sense though. The only other drag is when a new superman film comes out, it will have to be bought seperately, but that is only a little problem. This set is to sweet.

That other box is specifically called the Christopher Reeve collection so presumably they're aiming that at people who just want the original films and not the new Bryan Singer one. Plus that other boxset will be $20 cheaper so will probably get more casual purchases coming up to the festive season.
Anyway the more I think about it I really wish they could throw Supergirl on there and make it a 15-disc set (I know I'm getting greedy)! That film is firmly set in the world of the Salkind movies and it's certainly a lot better than Superman IV!
That aside I can't wait to get this set - and getting Bryan Singer's video diary is an unexpected surprise. I didn't buy the Amazing Story of Superman DVD because I knew it was going to be in the boxset but I was gutted when I found out that Best Buy had done an exclusive video diary DVD with it!
Plus the Superman II special features disc has a new featurette on the Fleischer cartoons!
Can you tell I'm excited about this boxset - thank you Warner Bros!

(drooling)
SWEET, This set is AMAZING. I love the Ed McGuiness drawing of superman on the booklet. I think he is the BEST superman comic books artist ever. This tin is gonna be so cool. GREAT job Warner Bros.
Actually it was all including Superman II: Richard Donner Cut and Superman Returns except Supergirl. It was f***ing insane. Thank you WB!!!
Knew this would turn up eventually. It'll cost a fortune to import this sucker, but I'm there all the same. Big fan of the first two films, and I'm looking forward to seeing the Donner cut. I also enjoyed SR for what it was, although Superman III and IV are a bit lame.
MEMDB, not only does it contain Returns and extra disks, but it also contains both versions of Superman II. Beyond that, the swag for this set also steps it up a notch too (as far as I know, there is no swag included with the Reeve collection).
I will be honest, I'm a sucker for swag. That is the way to sucker me in. Give me something I can't otherwise attain.

Looks like this is the way to buy the films!
Nice... I was not interested in it until I saw the pics, now I may be upgrading my Superman collection for this.
Very classy looking.

YES YES YES! What I was waiting impatiently for! God i'm so happy now. I'm so happy I could buy TWO of them!
