Product Description
DESCRIPTION: On June 30, 2006, SUPERMAN RETURNS hits the big screen with a new feature film from Warner Bros. and visionary director BRYAN SINGER (X2, X-Men, The Usual Suspects). Following a mysterious absence of several years, the Man of Steel comes back to Earth in the epic action-adventure SUPERMAN RETURNS, a soaring new chapter in the saga of one of the world s most beloved super heroes. While an old enemy plots to render him powerless once and for all, Superman faces the heartbreaking realization that the woman he loves, Lois Lane, has moved on with her life. Or has she? Superman s bittersweet return challenges him to bridge the distance between them while finding a place in society that has learned to live without him. In an attempt to protect the world he loves from cataclysmic destruction, Superman embarks on an epic journey of redemption that takes him from the depths of the ocean to the far reaches of outer space. More than 150 magnificent photos will appear in the official SUPERMAN RETURNS book. Set alongside excerpts from the screenplay and short essays, the photographs will allow the reader to follow the arc of the film s story and marvel at the filmmaking magic on display from the spectacular creation of the Daily Planet to the breathtaking action set pieces.

5 out of 5 stars A wonderful edition to any superman fan's library   April 5, 2008
D. Jones (Australia)
A wonderful edition to any superman fan's library. The book is filled with high quality photos that follow the movie's plot and includes sections of the script. As an added bonus a few behind the scene moments, as well as some detailed concept art have been included. There are several interviews with cast members, writers, set designers, the special effects department and of course the director, Bryan Singer.

Not what I expected. Was really after the story book but this was only about Superman behind the scenes.

Wonderful pictures, and it provides a fantastic insight of the Superman Returns movie which I had the privilege of going to see at the movie theatre today. It only came out in the UK today and I must have been one of the first to see it.

It was breathtaking. A must see for all Superman fans.

For any Superman follower it's a must buy, and I can't wait until I can buy the DVD. I have asked Amazon to let me know when it becomes available.

As far as the book goes, it is a good buy because although it has lots of info, it doesn't give the story away.

Excellent. Thanks.



5 out of 5 stars Exactly what you'd want   July 6, 2006

This book is not meant to be an in-depth look at the making of a major motion picture. Rather, it's a book that's about 75% pictures. And really, that's exactly what the fans want. We've been lucky enough to follow the production of this film from Day 1 via Bryan Singer's video diaries (bluetights.net). We've seen how the film was made, and further documentaries will explain it even further. It's just wonderful to sit back and look at the details of the beautiful finished product, and this book delivers. I found myself dwelling on each page, like it was an art book. Considering the great price here on Amazon, if you're big enough of a fan to be on this page, there's no reason that buying this book now won't be worth it!
