For years and years I "hunted" for it, since once more NO video stores near me had it to rent and out of all four Reeve movies that one almost NEVER got aired on TV. Too much Richard Pryor being Richard Pryor, and not enough Superman.

I think the skeleton of a really good movie is in there, I just don't think they made the movie they could have out of it. It has some good ideas and a few decent moments, though. AND I just don't think most of the humor landed, and since SO much of that movie relies on its "humor" it was a wide swing and a miss for me.
I just plain don't like comedic super-hero movies (except when that's the entire point and it couldn't be done at all otherwise, like Deadpool). Makes me wish I thought of something like that. One of the guys I work with at SKPW uses the World Engine's attack noise in his theme music. The entire soundtrack doesn't get enough credit, since it deliberately goes for poignancy whereas more familiar Superman theme scores lean into bombastic. Really gets me going when I need a little boost. "First Flight" is one of my favorite pieces of classical music ever. Personally I love Zak Snyder's man of steel ,I play the Hans Zimmer score all the time when I'm " winding down", and I wish both cavill and Snyder had got to do more movies, at least a trilogy.
