Superman Ultimate Collector's Edition ($99.92) Brandon Routh ably filled the red boots in this summer's thrilling Superman Returns, but he's still no match for Christopher Reeve's masterful take on the Man of Steel. The two heroes team up for this super, and superb, 14-disc set, featuring Returns, remastered versions of Reeve's four films and several enchanting documentaries. Best bonus: an alternate version of Superman II, dubbed the Richard Donner Cut, with discarded footage—including a charged confrontation between Reeve and Marlon Brando, playing Superman's father—shot by director Donner before he was replaced midproduction. The five films, and Donner's II cut, are also available separately. SET AND EXTRAS:
