Hello again ... reviews are lagging a bit behind street date but I think I'm keeping up the quality. The problem with the Preston Sturges Comedies is that they're so funny, one forgets to think of them in terms of a review.

Gary Teetzel sent me this YouTube link, of a deleted scene from Superman IV which I hope to be reviewing soon. Although I saw several work prints of this movie while at Cannon, I don't remember anything like this ... a rather silly confrontation between Superman and Lex Luthor's first, failed attempt to make a Nuclear Man. It's pretty much a 'good riddance' deleted scene, what with all the product placement, etc.. ... and we wonder if it will be on the final disc. The movie had many deleted scenes, and some of them were improvements on what's in the finished cut. Thanks for reading, Glenn Erickson
