ULTIMATE Superman's Repowering scene from Superman II Richard Donner Cut

- By taking the Superman 2 Richard Donner cut that was deleted out of the theatrical cut I edited my final cut that compliments the film best in my opinion
In a way Superman didnt save humanity- Jor-El did! He left a one time back up copy of his energy/soul in case his son needed his powers back one day. What a scene that fixes that plot hole of the theatrical cut!
The scene shows how Superman got his powers back after willingly becoming human.

Lesson: Don’t ever change yourself for a woman or anyone else. The right people will love you for who you really are.
Right, because she didn’t love Clark, she loved Superman. She even said to him I want the man I fell in love with.
Facts
Unless your baby batter blows out the back of her lady parts. 😆 🤣
Beautiful stated!
@Mark Guerrero he mostly did it to be with Lois. Moral: Focus on yourself men and forget these broads
This scene alone makes the Donner cut the superior film.
In the theatrical. Was it just the glowing stick and then the cut away i think?
@@773superprguy Pretty much. He finds the original green crystal and gets his powers back with no explanation.
@@MattJohnsonA More moving and powerful than anything that will ever appear in the entire DCEU.
@@773superprguy Yeah, a cut away. I guess you are supposed to guess that he got his powers back through that. This is better because we see Jor-El.
WHAT are you smoking? This scene and movie version sucks.
I love when he never fails to acknowledge that he is his son. Very touching, very heartfelt.
This scene is AMAZING. Much more emotional, touching than the original.
That was the original, then it was changed so someone could put their name to the film due to re shoots.
@@b00ts4ndc4ts what you say? Dont understand it.
@@miguelaprendizaje.2918 Richard Donner had already filmed most of Superman II before the Salkinds fired him and replaced him with Richard Lester who reshot a lot of the scenes and added stupid goofy comedy to it just so he could get credit for directing the movie.
@@ValiantWrestling i didnt know. Some of the jokes seem strange.
@@b00ts4ndc4ts It was changed because Marlon Brando hamstrung them from using the footage of him, so they had to re-shoot it that didn't include him. I can't remember why. Think it was either Brando wanted more money or because they fired Donner, so Brando gave the studio the middle finger.
His father mustve known Clark would make mistakes like these, and so he gave Clark a second chance to redeem himself at the cost of never being able to communicate with him ever again.
And the son becomes as wise as the father ....
Makes me cry. Jor-El sacrifice reminds me of my old man and all he did for me that I will never be able to pay. Will see soon one day, dad.
Same here man.
Only one man can be both jor-el and The Godfather

"I don't like these drugs are bad for business."
And only another man can hold the idiot boards behind the camera.
Its the same role - both written by Puzo and about trying to establish your children as citizens at home in a new country and balancing ethnic identity vs assimilation vs self determination as an individual. Zod is capitano from old country here to put a hit on Kal el
S is for Sicily.. Don't forget the old country. Watch out for too easy assimilation young man. (But learn from Kurtz how NOT to make a home in a new country)
Clark realizes he has to give up his love life for a greater cause...
& still underpaid for the art
Dam...me too
He and Lois still loved each other.
He tapped and now he's free.
luckily Zack Snyder fixed that
Superman failed himself and all humanity.
He traded his birth right for a life time of submission in a world that is now ruled by your enemies. He scream out to his father.
Than a green crystal pops out, his father heard his called and gives him his powers back and tell his sun to remember him.
That's how it is when you connect with the creator who created you here on this Earth.
When he yells "FATHER!" the only thing I can think of is "The sleeper has awakened!"
This scene is very good. The movie one says nothing of how he recover his powers. Great actors both of them
For his three minute appearance, Brando's pay cheque was bigger then the Fortress Of Solitude !
Well, he was also in the first one as well. And he deserved it, I thought.
To be honest, this scene would have been worth the paycheck. The older I get the more I understand the sacrifices Jor-El made for his kid, and this was the ultimate, final sacrifice.
I also think it changed Superman. Clark and his father merged and became one, which is really pretty special.
I'm glad this scene exists. Both movies pivot on it.
@@czperiod2576 Althought I agree that this scene was phenomenal, Brando was only in the movie for a few minutes and didn't even read his script and got paid millions for it.. it could've been handed to reeves who worked his ass off for this role.
@@Stormertheboy Well, Anne Hathaway basically rolled into Les Miserables for one song as Fantine and won an oscar for it. Alec Baldwin did a 3 minute monolouge in Glengary Glen Ross that went into the history books. It's not always quantity but quality that does it, and Brando's performance here truly completed the movie. Sure it cost a lot but I think it would have been worth it to make the movie spectacular instead of "good".
I'm just glad his estate agreed to put it into the Donner cut which is the best Superman movie ever.
His gravest mistake was becoming a simp, for a selfish woman who salivated at the thought of having the greatest man on earth sacrifice himself for her. She didn't say a word when he was about to do it. But simpage is the lesson in life a man should finally overcome, as a rite of passage. In the end, the circle is complete and the son becomes the father, the father becomes the son.
Yes, she even said I want Superman back at the diner. The circle is now complete. When I left you I was but the learner now I am the father. I meant master.
Old comment but funny! Simpage. I would salivate at this Superman too😅
This version is so much better than the theatrical release. It never made any sense to me how he gets his powers back
I figured that due to the crystal being buried in the snow from where Lois had put her bag on it previously in the film , when clark gave up his powers and and we had the explosions that crystal was safely out of the way and protected in a snow/ice layer ... that was always my guess...
Neither one makes any sense. Both in losing and gaining his powers Superman is visibly affected by the process. Meanwhile, Zod & Co. don't even notice their powers being taken away. It's asinine.
@@salaciousBastard Well when he flew back to the fortress, after the metropolis fight, he probably figured out another way to do it, by reversing it outside of the crystal chamber, without them knowing they were being depowered, that was genius, best scene of the movie, in my opinion
His father knew he would make a mistake and lose his power . So he planned ahead of time to give him his power back ( Kryptonia Prophecy ) .
Tracytron A little bit of mystery is good though. It’s not good to have everything spelled out for you in black and white. It’s like when you find out how a magic trick is done, once you know, the magic is lost.
A fathers love for his child is endless.
Damn this scene is so powerful and dramatic !
This just teaches us a lesson. His father made him realise who he really is. Kal el is kal el
Kal El the son of Jor El
we need a superman more than ever now
Yeah this should have been in the original movie. All these years I have been trying to figure out how he got his powers back. Thanks for this upload.
I thought that was pretty obvious from him finding the green crystal. Lol.
That was the crystal that formed the fortress and therefore it should be the one with all the power.
We dont need to see every single detail to work something out lol
@@ninjaturtlemaster24 this should have been in the movie though, since it emotional and shows the fact the his fathers sacrificed himself again.
yw
Anthony Hopkins as Odin was the modern day Marlon Brando as Jor-El
They needed serious actors to make people take a super-hero movie seriously. Peter O'Toole in _Supergirl_ and Alec Guiness in _Star Wars_ too.
@@sandal_thong8631 True
@@sandal_thong8631 amazing actors.
This scene makes me cry as well as miss BOTH of my parents SO MUCH. Oh LORD LORD ever since my Mom passed away I cry SO MUCH MUCH MORE AND EASILY than I EVER did before. 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲. RIP Mom AND Dad. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Superman films from the first one til the second one are the best superhero movies ever made... Richard Donner made 2 belting films
Superman: At last I can finally wear my underwear outside again
Look at me Kal El!!! What awesome dialogue!!!
Is awesome Kal-El got he’s super powers back
Well, I guess we could have had Green Lantern and Supergirl save the world?
@@sandal_thong8631 I don’t think they exist in that universe yet
@@actionfigurescollectionssu7854 Probably correct. But then again the "lesser" superheroes might be lying low, since they can't beat one Superman, let alone 3. _Supergirl_ was released after _Superman III_
The flying scene here still holds up after all this time
In the end, there is more hope for the world in Clark being Superman, than in Superman giving up his powers to be Clark.
I realized this week that Jor-el's education was as much re-education to form his son into the man he wants him to be. Like suppose he had grown up to be one of the Deplorables? Those 10 years would break him down and build him back so Clark becomes just a persona of memory and he becomes Kal-el.
He later wants to be with Lois, and goes to his father for advice. So when Jor-el tells him to give up his powers he just does it, without thinking or consulting her. Going forward he can now be his own man.
First time ive seen this...ive watched the original superman 2 countless times aince childhood and its almost emotional to FINALLY understand exatcly how he got the powers back. This scene should have made the original, no question about it. (Definitely think its time to watch the donner cut!)
Donner cut is the best! I'm so happy they released it! Since this is the only Superman, there will ever be! lol
Never saw this cut. Always thought when he found that green crystal he got his shit back. But after seeing this, it looks kinda funny af, like he's being electrocuted..
cool to see marlon, slight veer towards cringe to see reeve seize
I hate the Salkinds for robbing us of this beautiful and emotional scene for 25 years simply because they wanted more $ for themselves. The first time I saw the Donner Cut, I cried like a baby at this scene. I’ll never watch the theatrical version again.
I have NEVER seen thia part!!! Wtf?! They cut all kinds of good stuff from films!!! 1st time in my life since I've seen this.
They had to cut it because Marlin Brando filed a lawsuit against them saying he wasn't paid or something so they just removed these parts. I think the other parts with his voice might have been from the first superman were cut out not sure. I know the part where Brando comes toward him touched him on the shoulder was not in the original I saw it in the movie theater the first day it came out in 1981.
Bro. Watch the DONNER CUT released in 2006
It's intense. I like it better than Lester.
@@keelernorth8470
The Donner cut of 1 & 2 is the amazing 4.5 hour Superman origin story.
@@Mike-01234 nothing to do with that. They just didn't want to pay him with the points he had in his contract. Might as well keep the doe.
I always found very odd the fact that the glowing stick which is a power source for Superman is green because it looks IDENTICAL to kryptonite which is exactly to mean the exact opposite...
I was just thinking that. We know of green kryptonite and the red sun of Krypton (maybe red kryptonite too), so it should be blue or yellow. Yellow might be better because it's the yellow sun of Earth that activated Kryptonian powers.
@@sandal_thong8631 I think thats the reason they fixed that in the new series. Now the glowing stick is orange and not green any more.
@@CainNuke Nice.
This scene is beautiful.
I don't agree that this was an improvement over what we got in the Lester version of Superman 2.
Less is more sometimes and just having him cry out in despair and then seeing the green light again left more to the imagination in my opinion.
It sucks Brando was not able to be in S2 due to his loyalty to Donner but having his mother speak to him about wanting to become a mortal man because of Lois worked for me. It seems like the mother would maybe handle the areas of advice regarding relationships. But Jor-El had the foresight to see what was possibly going to eventually happen so he provided him a one time ticket back to Super Power status. Lol
yeah I kinda figured something like this happened off scene, the live version was less cool than the imagination, note that Lester could have also reshot this with the mom
Jor El knew this would happen. That's why he planned for this contingency long ago. He left his son a backup of kryptonian energy. In the AI
My wife and I were watching this one time and she said that I would never give up my powers for her. I said you're right, because my luck would be just like his, Zod would show up.
Superman shouldn't have to give up his powers for Lois. In fact, the real Jor-El, who is still alive (the Kryptonian city of Kandor was miniaturised by Brainiac during the first film), seems to approve of the relationship in Superman '78: The Metal Curtain #2 and doesn't want Clark to give up his powers.
I just think the AI version is daft. 😂
Nice touch at the very end there adding him flying from the FOS after learning who he was
My Son iam gonna give a offer you can refuse
Classic Director's Cut. RIP Christopher Reeve, Marlon Brando and Richard Donner.
The Richard Donner cuts are way better than I what we see in the final project.
Nice touch at the end adding that little bit extra
Never see this..thanks for uplod ,bro
You never saw the real Superman 2. Watch S2 The Richard Donner cut
02:40....you could think about Prince Harry listening to this dialogue....😳😂😂
So fucking good, I almost forgot how good this was.
Now all smallville series took a sense...
The footage at the end when he is Superman once more and he flies out is the same footage from the first film when he first donned the suit.
That doesn't fit. It should go from the floor to the newspapers fluttering scene.
So many great things to say about this scene. Reeve was amazing how differently he plays really 3 characters. Kal el when speaking jor el he talks more regal & proper. Superman hes condident deeper voice clark whiny voice runs & walks so dorky lol he slouches hus voice is more hi pitched & cracks at times. Love how kal el gets defiant for the first time w/ his father who he loves very much hes the only one he can really be himself w/ all his time. He gets to go to him for advice im sure they talk a great deal. Also i like how as i was saying he says " selfish after all ive done fot them!?" The finger point really shows such a dad son realism where kal el is always so polite as himself clark superman. Also reeve looks so gorgeous in that shirt & pants. We only see clark in his buisness suit glasses. Nice to see him dressed like that. Plus as great as reeve looked so jacked up obviously this was one of his esrliest scenes b/c brando shot earliest as he only did 11 days so they shot him first to get to the next 2 acts smallville & metropolis. So i liked reeve here not so skinny like the test shots but hes clearly still transitioning his body so i liked him a lot looking leaner again the big muscles were great but he was working on that aa the filming progressed. His hair is also much shorter slicked back than aa clark. Much fuller.
Took me ages getting this version on dvd well worth it too
Superman could’ve just ignored his parents commands, kept his powers and married Lois….like he does now. 😂
This reminds me when I desiderata to go back practicing magic again.
This is what happens when you jump to the last quest. You miss out on previous lessons from Jor-El.
I have heard that Richard lester was very reluctant to take on the directorial duties for Superman II because Richard Donner had already filmed 85% of Superman II, went back to finish Superman: The Movie and in 1979 was about to finished Superman II when the Salkinds fired him...I have never heard of such a callous, self-obsessed, rude and selfish family like the Salkinds, luckily they don't make movies anymore and if they do, they're never heard of...but Richard Donner and his movies will continue to live on and still excite and bring happiness to countless millions...RIP Richard Donner and God Bless You!!
I really love this.
How much we need you on Earth right now...
Superman against the criminals of this never ending covid disease.
They said if Superman existed in the 1940s like the comics suggested, then he would have fought the fascists. I think he'd do that today. When _Superman Returns (2006)_ was coming I thought we needed him to take on a president who lied us into war and a profiteering vice president who didn't care if a million Iraqis died. Few challenged them.
If _Wonder Woman 1918_ had been set a couple years earlier when they got into stalemate, she could have changed the world for the better by ending the war years earlier. There might not have been a Russian surrender leading into the Russian Revolution and 70 years of a communist regime. But they didn't have the guts to change history.
You can not escape your fate Kal El !
Ahh i see what you did. good idea. The scene from the donner cut kinda ends abuptly
It's much more of an impactful reveal if we don't see Superman until her finally returns to face Zod
@@rockys201 I agree.
It should go from him lying on the floor to the newspapers fluttering in the breeze.
You know what's interesting is that only Lex knew about the Kryptonite and he certainly wasn't going to tell the world how to defeat them. Too bad Clark didn't think of it himself. Maybe he thought there was none left.
This unedited film cut needed that amplified crystal reverberation when Kal speaks. I think that's the only thing that is missing.
How the hell did this not make the movie
NOW i know who Ed Norton in Kingdom of Heaven sounds like...
ive been playing with glowsticks pretending I was superman since I was 6. years old. no i dont do it anymore lol.
I never understood why couldn't he just be Superman and still be with Lois..i get why they did it😅 but it's kinda daft in storytelling. Never ever change yourself for a woman or anyone. Specially if you're perfect 👍🏻
True
Wow, the very first time i watched this season, very power, wonder why they deleted it.
With this act final link between Kal-El and Clark Kent who became Superman is irreversibly broken. To become what he feels right Superman must lose something - he will be doomed into Solitude of being not a man, but god. So much responsibility on human shoulders.
Wow ! Why wasn't this included in the original movie ??
Watch Superman 2 released in 2006.
If u never saw it, you never saw the true conclusion to SUPERMAN the movie
Integrity101 you mean Superman Return?
@@AlbertAdi4669
No. I mean *SUPERMAN 2 the RICHARD DONNER cut released in 2006 starring Christopher Reeve.* If you never saw it, you never saw the true Superman story.
1st Watch Superman The Movie special edition (2hrs 31 minutes). Not the theatrical version. 2nd watch Superman 2 The Richard Donner Cut. It is the true two hour conclusion to SUPERMAN the movie. Its one big 4.5 hour epic Superman origin story. If you are watching the theatrical versions of both movies you are missing out big time.
In a nutshell, just remember to watch the Richard Donner approved versions. They are far superior.
@@integrity101 so first Superman 1 then Superman 2 RD cut?
@@mad_titanthanos
Yes.
4:30
Is he having a Tommy tank?
Kal-el mother
Superman Superpowers
The loss of Brando's scenes weakened the film more than the loss of Donner. Although if Donner had stayed for _Superman III,_ then maybe that movie could have been epic with Brainiac or Bizarro instead of another appearance by a Luthor wannabe and Richard Pryor taking over the movie.
The sun becomes the father
and the Father the son
Especially after Smallville did anyone consider that Kal-El (literally translating to vessel in Kryptonian/Hebrew) is about to have his consciousness swept into a crystal fortress? Re-emerging as the consciousness of Jor-El inhabits his son forever because of this "dreadful mistake" it's just the way Zod possessed lex Luther on Smallville Clark kneeling recognizing something more powerful than himself; he rises up STRONGER!
This scene is a mythological parable for Prince Harry's life.
Leaving the most powerful family in the world for an American actress who probably loved his titles instead of him? Yeah you're probably right.
They should of had this part in the movie.
Wow, where can I get this version on dvd
I’m pretty sure it’s included on the Superman Returns DVD?

show yourself... I'm dying to meet you SHOW YOURSELF! ahaaaa haaaaaa ^^ (mmmmh ^^ "stolen" 2? XD)
Kal el goes MGTOW
Yes sir, only super men can do this 💪 and we are it..or "el" means the one in latin
I quite like the superman series, even though I prefer darker stuff and route for the villains!
Listen dad you warned me about my powers and I did not listen anyway bunch of your criminals are on earth so this also your fault sooo powers back now hurry
The son becomes the father and the father becomes the son.
Why'd Superman and Zod's crew have so many powers in this movie? Lol Teleportation, illusion, telekinesis, wiped Lois' memory with a kiss, and the weird emblem wrap thing Sups used in the final fight 🤣
Siempre me acuerdo de mí hijo
I will be my best now.... And worth every penny you invested in me... We sprint to the finish line now where Jesus Christ is waiting to bring us to the Father....
Sad that Marlon Brando and Christopher Reeve died the same year.
😮
Beautiful scene , this Is a cinecomic, Better do not Say anything about current cinecomics...
He would have died long ago due to the extremely freezing weather 🥶. Also, it's hundreds of miles and he'd be dehydrated, and starved.
One at Miami
Crystal Jarel sees his son give up his superpowers only to immediately return bloody and bruised from the world he grew up on.
Kal el sucks at being human.
THE SON BECOMES THE FATHER
Why did they cut this bit out?
By removing all scenes with Brando in the 2nd movie, they saved a ton of money.
Why did they remove this important scene?
Buy Superman 2 released in 2006
Remember men, after Superman gave up HIS powers to be with Lois, she had the audacity to say: "I want the man I fell in love with."
Lesson: "Always put YOUR purpose and goals first, men. A woman is ONLY to get in where she fits in--never chase or pursue a female EVER."
The real reason he wanted his powers back were to get revenge on Rocky the cafe bully. Clark couldn’t be asked working out in the gym 😂😂
I believe they didn`t want to pay Marlon Brando...and this was shot at the same time as one...so they just used Suzanne York as his mother......and different director
Richard Donner was the best the only one that came close was Snyder
Ai Have Movie one VHS and DVD and Blue-Ray
The end is from the 1st movie 🍿
Know what? Let's say this hadn't worked. There would be another way. He had to still remember that Kryptonite would destroy them. And there has to be some around, right? He could probably tell underground scientists and rebels about this. Well, that's sort of what is done in Superman 3 but they didn't gather all the right ingredients so Superman changed from good to bad. I doubt that same stuff would change those three from bad to good.
Finding the kryptonite down the drain might have been a desperate way to go. But remember Ms Teschmacher took the kryptonite off Superman, and there were three of them to watch each other. He'd have to make kryptonite bullets or something, because not even the Justice League could beat 3 versions of Superman.
Nicely done, but in all honesty, not a necessary scene. In the theatrical release, as soon as you see the crystal light up in the snow, and then in the next scene he's Superman again, it doesn't take much to put two and two together. We didn't really need to hear Clark getting a lecture from his deceased Dad first, and we didn't need to see the Crystal using it's power because we already saw the powers it had in Superman 1.
Derek Bialy Blaustein And "we don't need" your minority opinion.
@@landline00 Well I'm giving my opinion anyway, whether you need it or not.
Derek Bialy Blaustein I'm of the generation that saw this in the movie theater. To finally see how Kal-El got his powers back made me tear up.
@@landline00 I sorta feel like I already knew how he got his powers back. But....to each his own.
@@JukeboxBalowski Same. I prefer the mystery of it.
Made a dreadful mistake? Your Son looks like he called Evander Holyfield a sissy. I would say that's an understatement.
Why couldnt superman stay superman & still love lois ? Why did he have to become Mortal? Jor el did mess up w/ that phantom zone that their was a way to get out albeit very very random. I like the original is the missle. Imagine if that happened & those 3 came to earth w/o superman
They couldn't consummate their relationship with his powers. He could control the motion but not the ending which could be disastrous to her. My Super theory.
@@NakedCoffeeChannel u think! ? I just wondered since he is an alien if they have sex like human beings & have u know genetic material like men. So I figure that lois maybe had to show him? He grew up in the 60s was their sex ed? I guess I'd have to think growing up in america as a teenager he probably knew.
