The great liberal unwashed of United States society scoff at the innocence of "just doing the right thing, because it is the right thing to do"...
These videos were made by people, and a star, who actually BELIEVED....that there really are....people who just do the right thing.... who BELIEVE....in TRUTH...JUSTICE...and
the rest of the line...was "the American Way"...this...is the part upon which the great liberal unwashed cast their scorn...
But....what IS....the "American Way"? It is a belief in the worth of.....the individual....it is the belief in the rather odd idea, today, that there really are some situations in which a person sacrificing themselves for the "good of the group"...is a worthy thing...
Does Superman....who can leap tall buildings, fly faster than a speeding bullet and take those same bullets on his chest... sacrifice himself? No....but....he symbolizes..... that....just maybe.... there are people who..would...for the good of the individual....for the good of the group....
You can show these to your kids....and they will love them...you can show these to some adults..those who have a sense of "something greater than themselves".....and they will weep....
'nuff said

This particular Superman serials takes me back to the Saturday Matinees when I was a tiny boy in the Fifties and we would all sit there yelling excitedly at the screen as the villains battled Superman. It brings back beautiful memories! Wonderful stuff!

As a serial fan,it is rare that you find good serials that are re-issued by a major studio.The best thing is that the original negative is used to make the DVD and as a result, the picture and sound are as good as it gets. And when two great serials are packaged together ,what more can you ask for??I have both of these in studio VHS , but the DVDs are better!

I am 78 years old, but rememeber well the Saturday Matinee at my local movie theatre. Two feature films, a newsreel, a cartoon and, of course, a Chapter from whatever serial was playing at the time.
Superman - The 1948 & 1950 Theatrical Serial Collection was two of those serials and like most of them, was so bad it was good. Kids today will never know the exciting anticipation of having to wait a whole week before we could know how the hero was going to solve this week's cliffhanger. My only concern with these two serials was that Jimmy Olsen was going to have brain damage from being punched out so many times.
