For those who care about such things: I have received my copy of the 4K UHD Superman, and the default 5.1 track sounds like it is the original split-surround 70mm mix, or at least a very good facsimile thereof. For those who have not been thrilled with the 2000 remix, you can finally hear the discrete original mix. The 5.1 version of the track is only on the 4K disc, not on the enclosed Blu-ray (which I think is the same as from the box set). This was announced at least a month ago.

Truth be told I wasn't a fan of those little rag dolls. I grew up with 12 inch GI Joe's. When boys were raised to be men! 8 inches with solid body molds and a lot of joints and VERY good likenesses, Mego were the shiz back then. The woven clothes were also really great. I still have a bunch of original Mego Trek figures and two of the Enterprise bridge playsets. These were and are still top shelf toys.

This was announced at least a month ago. Perhaps, but many times the “original” audio track on video releases is not — many films with mono or surround tracks have them replaced by fold-downs of the new 5.1 or 7.1 mixes. Moreover, it is historically significant as it is one of the first films to have had split surrounds.

Thanks for the info. I'm sure some of us hadn't known. Even for those who had known, it was worth confirming. Especially considering that the original DVD box set of Superman was supposed to have the Dolby Surround version of the original mix on the theatrical cut, only when it was shipped, it turned out to be a folddown of the 5.1 mix. Warner Brothers offered replacement discs in the mail. So it wouldn't be the first time for this title…

Well, I hope this little incident hasn't put you off flying. Statistically speaking of course it's still the safest way to travel.

Boring orchestral masturbation that leaves me cold. I have really tried. Bought all the editions. The rerecording. The lot. But Superman is one of the rare examples of Williams doing a great theme and a mediocre rest. Ladies and gentlemen, the number one troll post of 2018 on FSM! If there is ONE Williams score that is unanimously acclaimed it is this one. Next!
