\"Superman Richard Donner speaks in an interview on his new film 16 Blocks<\/em>, and also on the new Bryan Singer Superman Returns<\/em> film and the so called ‘Donner cut’ of Superman II, which it turns out he’s not doing himself. He says on helping out with the project, “I can’t because it’s so long ago and the little bit of footage that I looked at, I would never shoot like that now in a million years, I mean it was a different way, a different style, different interpretation.”<\/em><\/p>\n

More of this in Dark Horizon’s exclusive interview<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This set may potentially be a High Def release also (Blu-Ray and\/or HD-DVD).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
