No, unfortunately it isn't a reality ... yet. However it should be. Warner Brothers and DC have mistreated the Man of Steel for many years now and need to be reminded what makes this character Super. After almost 40 years this movie still influences the current crop of superhero movies being made. Even Kevin Feige makes it mandatory viewing before embarking on every MCU project. So, let's get the message to WB to re-release this film classic and appropriately Honor the Last Son of Krypton.
Let's spread the word.

Warner Brothers is still ignoring our calls for a proper re-release of this cinematic standard. Post this link on your Facebook wall and tag the studio directly to demand they honor the legacy of this film.

The momentum behind this push is real and it shows that fans are ready for a proper tribute to the Man of Steel. Take a moment right now to email the Warner Bros press office and demand they acknowledge this classic. Post a link to this petition on your Facebook timeline today to keep the pressure on.

The original theatrical cut deserves special treatment to make it the best picture and sound it can be. If Warners won’t do it then give it to Criterion. Get it done by Dec. 15th. No excuses, just do it.
Contrary to Jor-El's opening statement, this IS a fantasy, and one of the best pieces of fantasy cinema has created. Perhaps not the action packed adventure audiences expect today but the depiction of Americana from Kansas to vibrant city life of the '70's to the desert wastelands is so epic. It has a sense of wonder that is rarely aimed for in cinema today. Pure magic.
I think now is the appropriate time for WB to release Superman on it’s 40th anniversary in theaters in order to please the fans and make them happy
There will be screening of Superman at the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens, NY, on 11/10, 11/11, and 11/12. Check out the link: http://www.movingimage.us/visit/calendar/2018/11/10/detail/superman.
There will be some screenings of Superman on 11/25/18 in honor of the 40th anniversary. Here's the link: https://comicbook.com/dc/2018/09/05/superman-the-movie-40th-anniversary-theaters/ I live near NYC, and I noticed that there's a screening scheduled in Brooklyn at a Regal theater. I hope there a more screenings to come!
SUPERMAN FOREVER
The classic icon deserves to be view by today's generation in the theater the way the parents did.

This film has been a constant not only to my childhood, but a continual source of comfort, and sheer joy. It needs to come back to theaters, so those of us who still believe a man can fly can see it as we remember and love it still to this day.
