The Death Of Superman Lives

Today is the official release of the documentary The Death of 'Superman Lives'; What Happened?. If you couldn't tell by the title, it's a retelling of the entire saga of the lost Superman movie - which was originally written by Kevin Smith and had Tim Burton as director and Nicolas Cage to star. Yes, Nic Cage as Superman. You can watch the first ten minutes for free but I highly suggest diving into the entire thing. It's an absolutely fascinating look at the inner workings of big budget Hollywood and all of the ego's and terrible decisions that get made. It also explains why the test footage of the Superman costume that's been making the rounds for years is as weird as it is.

There's a mega deluxe edition of the movie with all kinds of bonus content or a straightforward just the movie edition.. but c'mon, you wanna see that Deluxe Edition!

Very pleased this story is finally being told because I've been insanely curious about it for years. Director Jon Schnepp did a great job unearthing all of the things.
