Christopher Reeve as Superman
Christopher Reeve did a fantastic job in this series of movies. Obviously his legacy as an actor. He had big shoes to fill becoming the "new" Superman of the latter 20th century. How unfortunate we no longer have him in our lives and on the big screen.

Great Superman collection
Great audio and picture quallity. And the bonus features are nice because we can see how the Superman movies were made and what the directors had to do to put his vision on the screen to the best of his abillities. Watch the sets being built to bring us the action that we now see in the movies on the screen. Thanks to WB studios for this great Christopher Reeve Superman collection. Mr. Reeve will always be our Superman.

Good, but wish it was better
So Superman #1 Awesome.
#2 - Good
#3 - Did they seriously make this movie?
#4 - Wow...I feel bad for Christopher Reeves.
The first two movies are really good transfers with good sound and features, however the last two were missing everything including 5.1 Surround Sound and extras. Although it doesn't really matter because they are so bad. Richard Pryor ruins the third movie. He turned it into a really bad...and stupid comedy. And the last movie doesn't make any sense. Although I like the message (I assume it was the only reason Reeves did it...oh maybe it was because he helped write the screenplay)
The only reason to get this set is if you are a collector. Otherwise save yourself the torture and but buy the first two movies in higher quality. Actually you are better off buying Smallvile. Yea, I said it.

There's still a problem even with replacement disc
As many already know Warner set up an exchange program for the first disc in this box set. It seems the origianl theatrical 2.0 (Dolby Surround) mix was not correct but instead a 2.0 verison of the new 5.1. There are many differences between this one and the original 2.0 theatrical one released to theatres upon release. Warner's exchange program was meant to replace those discs with new and corrected ones. After waiting nearly 3 months I was forced to call WB and question where mine was. It was then sent to me overnight. But when it arrived I found the 2.0 mix (simply labled ENGLISH) is defective. In Dolby Surround 2.0 all dialog is meant to be in the center channel. Insead this release has it coming from all speakers, and if you have a 6.1 or 7.1 set-up it get really annoying with an echo. If you need to test your disc go to a scene where there is more dialog and no music and a low amount of sound effects like when Lois interviews Superman. Then compare the way is sounds with SUPERMAN III and SUPERMAN IV, which are both 2.0 Dolby Surround. You will see what I mean. It's a shame that WB has let this sloppy mistake happen - it should be fixed. Since this is a replacement disc I would imagine its the same version in the re-release of the Silver Box Set as well - even in the SUPERMAN:THE MOVIE sold on its own. I've been reviewing film professionally and have been a consultant for home video for 20 years and haven't seen a mistake like this in a long time. I tried to connact Warners several times but no one has returned my calls in the past month. Even the Home theater fourm deleted my postings on this. Having interviewed the film's producer several times I know this soundtrack shouldn't be like this. This film is considered a classic and should have been given better treatment.
