Continuing the live action franchise for the Man of Steel with the second film of the Christopher Reeve era with the second film, "Superman II" and this time, we go into the production history of it, as well as my thoughts on both cuts and why I find this to be a great sequel with both versions. This is also a continuation of my James Gunn's Superman review project. #supermanii1980 #supermanii #christopherreeve #genehackman #margotkidder #superman #supermaniithericharddonnercut #richarddonner #richardlester #Superman2025 #TheRoadtoSuperman2025 *Timecodes:*0:00 - disclaimer 1:42 - video starts/cast and crew + plot synopsis 3:41 - production history and my experience 8:08 - Richard Lester version20:10 - Spotify/Apple PSA20:53 - Richard Donner version28:33 - Conclusion and outroSypnosisSuperman (Christopher Reeve) foils the plot of terrorists by hurtling their nuclear device into outer space, but the bomb's shock waves free the Kryptonian villain General Zod (Terence Stamp) and his henchmen Ursa (Sarah Douglas) and Non (Jack O'Halloran) from their imprisonment.
