Stupidity: There was no particular reason for Nuclear Man to take Lacy into the space in the first place.

Directed by: Sidney J. Furie
Starring: Gene Hackman, Christopher Reeve, Margot Kidder, Jackie Cooper, Marc McClure
Factual error: If the Russian cosmonauts need special suits to survive out in space, so should Lacy when she is abducted by Nuclear Man. (00:02:50 - 01:20:20)
Lex Luthor: Lenny, let's try and keep your IQ a family secret.
Trivia: Near the end of the film, Superman gives a press conference in front of a bluish mirror-glass building which is meant to be the Daily Planet skyscraper in Metropolis (which we all know is New York, sort of). The shot is framed so you can only see the bottom of the building - necessary as it is only about 3 floors high, and is in fact the railway station in Milton keynes, England, about 400 yards from where I work. Even the crowd have a vaguely British look about them - presumably passers-by were recruited and stood there in their own clothes (this would matter less now - Brits look more American than they did in the Eighties).
Question: Assuming anyone saw this deleted scene on the DVD special features. Why would Lacy even go to Smallville?

Answer: Lacy had gotten tired of her dad's newspaper, big-city life and decided to move to Smallville because she wanted to experience life at a much slower pace and even decided to live on a farm.
