Well, who do we write to to get the "American way" put back into the movie on a regional/USA release of the DVD? I'm sure they filmed the scene with the correct phrasing and have it stored on digital tape somewhere.

Don't hold your breath. The Hollywood types would consider any mention of the American Way as "jingoistic", "militaristic", "racist", "xenophobic", "homophobic", "supremacist", "triumphalistic", and on and on.

At least, on "Superman II", the film shows the Man of Steel carrying the American flag to place it on top of the White House. Very patriotic.

From my online Superman quiz, Superman As Super Savior:

http;//www.assistnews.net/Stories/s06070029.htm

Routh told Movie Magic: "In the '50's, Superman was America. 'Truth, Justice and the American Way.' For me, it's not about that. I mean, it's Truth, Justice...but it's not the American Way." When Routh was asked: "So you're saying that the perception of Superman is something that shouldn't be limited to America?", he replied: "How can it be? How can we be so simple-minded to say that it's just about America now? Superman came to save the world, not just America. For me, that's what it is, and in this film, that's what it's about."

John 3:17: "For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him."
