It's not all bad, but it's definitely more comfy for non-comic fans, Marvel lovers, and "normies" than the others. You can see where really great material got cut, condensed, or altered, and it's a little infuriating. The deleted Superman scenes on the disc give a glimpse of just how much Whedon changed everything.

If I wasn't so obsessive-compulsive over the Blu-ray slipcovers that come out during the early print runs of these movies, I probably would have waited a bit longer to purchase it.
