Oh, the Salkinds. The Hunguarian or Bulgarian or whatever Eastern European producing clan they were, they produced alot of cheesy and super-expensive stuff. They produced the first 3 SUPERMAN movies, and here is a script treatment apparently of how they wanted SUPERMAN III originally, and goddamn, its.....well, they had no clue at all about Supes. To quote a friend of mine who read it: "Its like the worst Silver Age Supes comic NEVER penned!" www.supermancinema.co.uk/superman3/general/script/s3_original_idea.pdfCheck out the part where Superman and Supergirl "do it".....except they're cousins, right? EEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

Holy crap! There's a whole medieval theme to the movie! I mean, alchemy, Brainiac's castle, Brainiac and Superman fighting dressed up as knights!!!! What the hell!?

I got a migraine just by reading that. What's worse, it actually spawned TWO crappy movies instead of one (Superman 3 and Supergirl) Since when did the Daily Planet have a Hong Kong office

It needs a giant spider in the third act. Also, no suit and no flying. Evening with Kevin Smith FTW!

What the f***?
I think a little part of me died by reading that treatment.
Brainiac's one goal is to get in Supergirl's skirt. Great way to treat Superman's number 2 enemy.
I'm very thankful that this movie never got made.

I like Superman 3, it's a big guilty pleasure. Who doesn't love the Clark Kent/Evil Superman fight in the scrapyard? And the moment where Kent wins, stands up and rips open his shirt to reveal the bright red Superman logo is f***ing great. Oh and any film where Richard Pryor skis off the top of a building wearing a pink tablecloth can never be considered a bad film.

Am I the only one who was scared crapless from the scene where the woman gets turned into a robot? You are not. For some reason whenever that would come on tv, I had to close my eyes when that scene would come up. And DAMMIT that treatment is bad. It starts off alright with Lois leaving cause she can't take it anymore. Then Lana Lang as a reporter, Brainiac raising unrelated to Supes Supergirl, a love triangle, Mr. Mxyzpltk, time travel. UGH. that was one big nonsensical clusterf***.

Sorry, couldn't resist *gets headache from all this horse hockey* I read somewhere that in one of the new Batman movies, they wanted to make Harley Quinn into the Joker's DAUGHTER instead of his girlfriend. Ugh, vomit. I never understand why writers decide to take an established character and say "guess what, now they don't have THIS relationship to each other, it's like THIS" and thereby pissing off a legion of fans you're trying to get to come to the movie.

The Superman III we have is awesome. Yeah, its not as good as 1 and 2, but at least they tried something different instead of giving us luthor AGAIN. Lets just hope we see a superman movie with darkseid soon though.
