Ai Saturn Awards, gli Oscar dedicati al mondo dello spettacolo di genere fantastico, il supereroe in tuta rossoblu ha fatto il pieno. Ben dieci nomination per Superman Returns, il remake-seguito del Superman di Donner scritto e diretto da Bryan Singer uscito nel 2006 anche in Italia. Nelle serie televisive la battaglia è tra Lost (sei nomination), Heroes (5) e Galactica (4).

Questa è la trentacinquesima edizione dei premi assegnati dalla Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror Films, l'organizzazione non-profit fondata nel 1972 dal critico e storico cinematografico Donald A. Reed.

I vincitori saranno annunciati a Universal City (in California, naturalmente) il 10 maggio. La cerimonia sarà presentata da Greg Grunberg (uno dei protagonisti di Heroes) e dal comico Jeffrey Ross.
