Hello,
First I just wanted to say that I saw you at WonderCon in San Francisco earlier this year, but I was feeling a bit shy, and didn't go over to say "hi" or anything. Plus, I had no money, so I couldn't get an autograph.
Anyway, I wanted to know your thoughts on Richard Donner's version of 'Superman II', coming out in November. -

Have you been given any idea what date in November the dvds' will be released?
Also, you may have been asked this before, so im sorry if Im making you repeat yourself, but what was Richard Lester like to work with after Richard Donner was sacked? Was he mindful off the cast and crews feelings towards this and did everyone like him?
"Easy Miss, I've got you"
"You've got me? Who's got you" -

Richard Lester was a shadow of Richard Donner.What was done to Donner was so wrong many of us almost walked off the picture.Lester was never respected by anyone.
I know we are going to a screening of Donner's cut Oct 16th I haven't heard the date for releasing the 14 disk pack as yet. -

Mr. O'Halloran, just wanted to say I'm a huge fan of your work in the Superman films, I grew up with them and just viewed Superman II again the other day. Your chemistry with Terence Stamp and Sarah Douglas as the Krypton villians was something to see. I remember thinking as a kid how crazy and cool you guys looked with your outfits and personas, you really made those roles your own. You cracked me up as Non, but were also pretty freaky. Anyway, I'd love to meet you and the other two.

Hi Mr. O'Halloran,
It is no secret that Donner is not involved with the project of his S2, and has tole interviewers he will not partake in anything to do with it. At least I understood it that way.
What I was wondering was, is there a way you can talk to him about it? I mean, he DOES know how respected by ALL fans of ALL the Superman films?
Thanks!

I think the thread about living next to you in an apartment is a quote from Dragnet. http://imdb.com/board/20641172/board/nest/33717151

Yep, found the quote on amazon.com:
Enid Borden: The magazines and papers were his down in the trash. No cheques or money, I looked. I should have thrown it all in the river the day he left but unlike some people I have a heart, goddamnit, the miserable little bag of puke.
Joe Friday: I think we're finished here, don't you Detective Streebeck? -

Hi Chris
I am glad you enjoyed the films for I really enjoyed making them.Non was a mute my choice as I felt someone had to relate to the youth of the audience.Like learning how to walk and talk Non had to learn his powers and he had a child like manner.I thought it worked well.
All the Best

hi - loved Superman II and King Kong. what was Marlon Brando like when you were filming Superman with him? And did Terence Stamp enjoy making this movie because i always imagined he did - he - and you and Sarah Douglas - were terrific villains. And was it kind of surreal when you were on the moon set in Superman II?

Hi Matwsussx
Marlon was wonderful to work with we were good friends and had a lot of laughs together.
Sarah is a love and Terence is a brilliant actor and they both are friends and great to work with. When you work on a film for the length of time we worked on this film you become like family.
The moon set was fun and surreal.
All the Best

Not really a questionbut Mr. O'Halloran, even though I'm of the age that grew up on the Superman movies (well, at least the first two), I associate you more with Farewell, My Lovely. I'm currently re-reading the book and you ARE Moose Malloy! Just a big "Thank You" for bringing that character to life and helping to realize such a great movie. Now why isn't Dick Richards working these days?
It's spelled
"Definitely."
