SUPERMAN RETURNS REDUX

I’VE ALWAYS BEEN BAFFLED WHY THE FIRST SHOT OF SUPERMAN RETURNS WAS OF LEX LUTHOR. IT REALLY TOOK ME OUT OF THE FILM. WHEN THE TEXT AT THE BEGINNING OF THE MOVIE TOLD US SUPERMAN DISAPPEARED, I FOR ONE WANTED TO KNOW.... WHERE?!! BRYAN SINGER FILMED A WONDERFUL RETURN TO KRYPTON SCENE TO EXPLAIN THIS. I’VE ALWAYS BEEN BAFFLED AS TO WHY IT WAS DELETED, CONSIDERING THERE WERE MANY OTHER TOTALLY USELESS SCENES IN SR. THIS IS HOW I THINK SUPERMAN RETURNS SHOULD HAVE OPENED. THAT IS TO SAY, THIS IS HOW I IMAGINED SINGER ORIGINALLY INTENDED IT TO OPEN. COMMENTS, POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE, WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. THANKS!!
