John Williams as the composer and the London Symphony Orchestra performing the music!!!

in 70mm and on FILM. Remember being 8 years old and watching it on the original release...quite the experience to say the least.

It would be awesome this film were re released in theaters for Superman 90s anniversary ( I think that'd be July 2028) Warner, are you listening?!😊

Yes. I was a 12 y/o boy when my parents took me to this in the theater. Heroic actions were still portrayed un-cynically, with a hope to inspire people. It was very exciting. it was a great time to be a young person. Now, decades later, I am a "man of a certain age". But listening to John Williams' rousing orchestration, it brings a tear of joy & remembrance to that wondrous time.

💯

Agreed 💯

Richard Donner is in a better place and we all shall remember him as the GOAT in film directing.

Rest in peace Richard Donner about time somebody acknowledged his death for if not for Donner we wouldn’t have had an amazing, iconic academy award winning setting new standards using technology before which had never been done bringing on Mario Puzo to do a better script an iconic script, iconic story and Donners vision was to have brainiac and Supergirl in Superman III if not for the Salkinds and Richard Lester ruining that idea, HE WAS THE GREATEST THE MOST LEGENDARY DIRECTOR IN SUPERHERO HISTORY and the only one who could have done Superman and Superman II The original cut in 2000 and it just blows the Richard lester Superman II out the window, I can’t watch Richard Lesters theatrical version of Superman II it’s pathetic with the terrorists in Eiffel Tower it’s already swaying away from the source material as Superman would have stopped the terrorists well before they tried to detonate the bombs, I miss him as I’d have conversations with him on twitter he always made time for what are my favourite movies in my life, I grew up with Christopher reeve and Superman since a kid, my lass the other day made me so jealous she’d never seen Superman so she got to watch it for the first time I’d give anything to see Superman movies for first time again, she absolutely adored it, even had tears in her eyes and goosebumps, brilliant all down to Richard Donner, we miss you especially for listening to us fans on internet and releasing the Richard Donner Superman II cut but we miss you for all you’ve done imagine Superman with the first jokey cheesy script, imagine it without Christopher reeves imagine it without John williams score, imagine it without that epic greatest intro to any movie in all of motion picture, everything had to piece together perfect or we wouldn’t even know it RIP To a Legend of cinema, the best

It's also a contractual obligation, as the highest paid actors on the set were usually credited first. That is also why Jack Nicholson gets top billing on Batman (1989) ahead of Michael Keaton.

Much like opening shots of Star Wars. One was left with their jaw open

He also directed episodes of my favourite show of all time "Get Smart".

Except for the part where they butchered the pitch and added those whooshes that are far too loud. It would be ok if they used them, but more subtly. Here's what the original sounded like. Note the correct pitch: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bdR-ZtlemLuRiGQ.html

And works, instead of coming over and living off welfare.

They had to speed up the pitch due to last minute deletions from the credits.

@@rucksackzen What are last-minute deletions?

@@superbowlguy9659 sometimes credits are removed from the opening title sequences and added to the end of the film. People drop out of a film, there could be several reasons.

@@rucksackzen I see.
