What
I didn’t know at the time was that Superman and Superman 2 were
conceived and shot as a single massive undertaking. ... Another
director was
brought on who had a different vision of the sequel, one that included
bad jokes and removing any trace of characterization or good acting.
That was the film we got in theaters.
But in 2006, thanks to popular demand, we finally got a DVD release of
Donner’s original. This isn’t just a few different camera angles, about
half the film has never been seen and let me assure you, it’s the best
half. I saw another review of this release that said if you haven’t
seen the Donner cut of Superman 2, you haven’t seen Chris Reeve’s best
work as Superman. I think that’s true.

It's been awhile, but I
do seem to remember liking #3 better than #2. - Via Verum Serum (which
means "Vermont Syrup" if I remember my Greek)
