Someone was nice and sent me their edition of "Superman II". This was a treat for me. This edition has about 95% of the footage that is in the Richard Donner Edition has in his edition however it includes about 30 Minutes of of Richard Lester footage. It was fun to watch. My only problem is that in a few scenes the footage goes from Wide screen to Full Screen. The full screen scenes last maybe 10 minutes.
The ending however was improved. Lois doesn't lose her memory. She Has a kiss with Superman and then it cuts to new footage with Lex breaking out of prison again. The last scene however is Superman Returning the flag to the White House.
This edition of Superman II ran for 155 minutes. Yes that is long however it seems to move, its not boring. The only thing that might seem to drag (to some) is that after Superman defeats the villains the movie still has about 15 minutes to go. There is 2 break up scenes and then there is the 2 bully scenes and a little more. It is worth watching. I love the fact that Lois still has her memory and they she is acting along with Clark/Superman.
