You know I really feel for the people who had problems with the 1st edition of this Box Set. But with this Corrected Edition you are getting everything.
I Live in South Africa when my Package arrived every DVD was there, All the Audio worked fine. I recommend this to All Superman FANS, It comes in a Great Silver Metal Box, 14 Disks, Of all the Movies, with "Richard Donner Cut" of Superman II "Its Brilliant",
I think with all the Special Features & Extras, this Box set will set you back a great couple of hours.
So dont wait for others to tell you what to do, Just get this Ultimate BoxSet and be prepared for something Special

And not because of the content of the DVDs. The movies themselves are fine; although deep down inside everyone was a little disappointed in Superman Returns. I have purchased and exchanged this set 3 TIMES! First time, not all of the DVDs were functional. Second time, DVDs' special features fiasco. Third time, the DVDs' case was broken and the discs were loose and got scratched. Tired of this, I finally kept the set that I had on hand. However, it's worth noting that the DVDs were out of order in the case, which makes some peoples' complaints about receiving duplicate discs and missing others more plausible.
How could Warner Bros. mess this up so badly? It's Superman for crying out loud!! He is one of their flagship franchises! I have hundreds of DVDs and have never experienced this much difficulty in finding a quality copy of a boxed set. I will think long and hard before buying any more DVD sets from Warner Bros.

This is a gold mine for all Superman fans everywhere. Despite the problems this set has been plagued with, it was well worth the wait. Yes, $75 is a bit painful, but think about it this way, you're only paying a little over $5 each per single disc. You won't get a deal like that anywhere.
And the content is top-notch. Reacquaint yourself with a young Christopher Reeve in his heyday, as he bumbles as Clark Kent, yet soars as The Man Of Steel. I had almost forgotten just how iconic these films were. My brother and I saw the first movie waaaaaay back in 1978 (that tells you how old I am), and needless to say, it left an indelible impression on us. But it's only now where I can appreciate it on a different level. Like George Reeves before him, Christopher Reeve had a charm about him which spoke volumes. You couldn't have found a better Superman if you tried (notice the nearly 20-year span in between the two actors). Not just anybody could play this character, but both men ran, I mean, flew away with him, and defined their careers.
And these films have never looked better. All 17 of the Fleischer brothers cartoons from the early '40's are included within this set, and let me tell you, you will cry tears of joy at the beautiful restoration Warner Bros. did on these. (These put the Bosko Video releases to shame. And those were very well done). Other than a few surface scratches, they haven't looked this good since they were originally released. (I'm not THAT old, but I can only imagine the sight of them back then, since they were the first filmed representation of Superman).
I am very well pleased with mine. This whole collection is pure gold. Sadly, for some of this collection's buyers, its become pure Kryptonite. Hopefully everyone will work their problems out, sit back and reconnect with an old friend. You'll forget all about all the money you spent.

I bought this collection back when it was first released. I was in line at Target on the morning of November 28th, I had been waiting so long for this set! I was NOT disappointed! In fact I love this set so much, I'm planning to buy an extra set here on Amazon just so that I never have to go without!
The packaging is first-class, the tin and lenticular sleeves alone are worth having! What a beautiful way to display your love for Superman! The comic book and the free poster offer are great bonuses! And you cannot possibly beat having FOURTEEN discs of nothing but pure Superman!
From SUPERMAN RETURNS, to the RICHARD DONNER CUT of SUPERMAN II, to the LOOK! UP IN THE SKY documentary ... everything you could possibly want is all here in one SUPER set!
Even though it was a bit of a hassle to have to send in for the replacement discs the first time, it was handled well and I really am pleased with the level of customer service the WB provided for thousands of fans who called in! It could not have been easier to get the corrected discs. You really have to appreciate the WB for not letting this mistake slide by - because not all studios would have gone to the same trouble they did to do right by the fans.
Thanks WB for putting this fantastic collector's set together! I will treasure it forever!
If you are a Superman fan and for some reason you missed this set the first time around, DON'T pass on it now! Also, you can't possibly get more of a bargain on all of these films! Even at $100 it is an absolute STEAL for all of these movies, rare special features, and documentaries! This was the best purchase I've made in a long time! :)
