superman II and superman III?

edit

he died years before they were filmed, why are they in his filmography?

front projection?

edit

"...including Zoran Perisic, an animation stand crew member from 2001, who extended Kubrick's front projection technique for Superman..."

To the best of my knowledge, there are no scenes using front projection. Superman has some exceptional rear projection -- sometimes being quite undetectable, even when you know -- but no front projection. WilliamSommerwerck (talk) 12:04, 25 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Birth date

edit

German WP says he was born in April 1914. How do they know even the month, when no other versions go beyond just "1914"? Why don't we know his actual date of birth? -- Jack of Oz [your turn] 20:06, 14 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Birth index shows 1914 is correct. Though it doesn't confirm the month. Crisso (talk) 16:59, 14 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
It turns out the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography added an entry for him earlier this year, which confirms his birth date. Here is an article about it http://www.yourindependent.co.uk/3506/Atherton-born-Double-Oscar-Winner-Honoured.html. Crisso (talk) 13:30, 25 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
