Superman Returns dvd finally announced.....

You can see the cover artwork here and a few details. A single disc and two disc special edition will be available. Count me in as getting the 2 disc.

Those covers look like stills from a "Max Fischer Players" production of Superman. What's up with the WB giving up on using the poster art?

???? So you'd prefer them to release the 1 disk now, and double dip in 6 months for the 2 disc?

Ugly covers... I think i'll pick up the single disc even though the film was a dissapointment. I'd like to rewatch it.

I agree, they look "in your face" and hideous if you ask me.

Dude! This is what the cover is supposed to look like...




Not the Photoshop, masturbatorial exercises linked above.

I love that poster art so much, I almost like it more than the movie.

DAMN YOU, WB!

I find the placement of Florida in that poster to be a bit... suggestive.

j/k. Yes, the DVD covers suck. I don't know what is up w/WB and covers lately. They should be completely embarrassed by what they did with the Chris Reeve movie covers. Yikes.

more than likely, we'll see an exclusive cover at one of the big box stores, not to mention that if this thing ends up in the big box, then it won't matter to many

the cover for the HD-DVD edition of Superman: The Motion Picture is the best of bunch IMO.

Count me in for the 2-disc edition though disappointed I am in that cover (poster art would have been much better).

Is there any hope that the 'Return to Krypton' sequence will be included as one of the deleted scenes? I know Singer denied it a short while ago, but hopefully he's had a change of heart.

I'm sure the 13 disc set will be announced soon enough. Maybe even this week. Maybe even today.

I just knew before I checked the link that there would be no commentary (after all, they have to keep features off the single disc so that if you want any extras at all you have to buy the 2-disc version). The HD-DVD will likely have IME though, so maybe there will be something like a commentary on that version.

Unless it is two and a half hours of Singer apologizing, I don't need a commentary on this.

Damn, those covers suck but I'll pick up the 2-Disc version if the 13-Disc Uber set never materializes.

3 Hour documentary? Will the Blue Tights webisodes be a part of it?
