Superman IV: The Quest for Peace

The Agony Booth yet again makes fun of one those bad Superman Sequels with their funny review of Superman IV

From Imdb.com ((Superman does a lot in his newest adventure. Archvillain Lex Luthor, determined to make the world safe for nuclear arms merchants, creates a new being to challenge the Man of Steel: the radiation-charged Nuclear Man. The two super-powered foes clash in an explosive screen extravaganza that sees Superman save the Statue of Liberty, repulse a volcanic eruption of Mount Etna, rebuild the demolished Great Wall of China and perform many more spectacular feats))

Yeah, the movie is that bad.

Margot Kidder looks terrible in this movie, really terrible.

Because the movie tested poorly in the early test screenings, they cut the movie down to 90 mins (Sounds like X3).

Taken from Superman Cinema http://www.supermancinema.co.uk/superman4/general/extra_footage/index.htm

((SUPERMAN IV's test screening was conducted in Orange County, California. The complete cut was shown, totalling to over 2 hours. The test screening proved to be disastrous, so major cuts were called for, and a lot of important sequences were left on the cutting room floor. Superman IV was whittled down to a mere 89 minutes, the film was a failure at the box-office.))

Look at this dork
