Superman II(1980)

6.8/10

dir. Richard Lester

A-Tier

The Donner Cut only exists on the 5-Film Collection, no standalone. The 2025 Reissue fixes the Atmos pitch drift on II and the squished geometry on the Donner Cut's final smile shot. Both were why the 2023 pressing was a pass for transfer nitpickers.

Superman III(1983)

5.0/10

dir. Richard Lester

A-Tier

Superman III's 4K disc was the only one in the 2023 box that didn't need a 2025 corrected reissue. The other four all got replacement discs, III shipped clean the first time. Still no standalone, you have to buy the box.

Superman IV: The Quest for Peace(1987)

3.8/10

dir. Sidney J. Furie

B-Tier

Superman IV is the weakest of the run at B-Tier, but the 2025 Reissue is the one to own because Warner corrected the Atmos mix that had wrong music cues scattered through the original 2023 pressing. No standalone exists.
