Superman II (1980)

Corrected entry: In Richard Donner's cut, after Superman saves the kid in Canada he speaks with Lois and his hair keeps changing from dry then wet then dry back again between shots.

Correction: Richard Donner's is not a finished movie, but an experiment of how S2 would have looked like had he finished it. It is made with material from different sources: Richard Lester's film, auditions, previously unreleased scenes, newly filmed stuff... Thus, it is impossible for it to have any continuity whatsoever and was never intended to have any.

Superman II (1980)

Correction: This scene is made using footage from several auditions. It was never intended to be a finished movie-scene but was used to help fans see how Richard Donner wanted Superman II to be like. That's the whole point of the Donner cut: Replacing the missing bits with outtakes, auditions and whatever scrap material is available as long as people have an idea of how the movie would have looked like had Donner [instead of Richard Lester] finished it.

Superman II (1980)

Corrected entry: During the street battle Superman throws Zod into the Coke sign, but it explodes before he even hits it.

Correction: The scene takes place so fast that it gives that feeling, but if you watch it in slo-mo you'll notice that Zod's leg touches the neon, which creates a small short circuit explosion that ends up affecting the whole sign, resulting in a bigger explosion.

Superman II (1980)

Correction: This is too vague. There are many flying scenes where wires aren't visible at all because a chroma was used. The trick is to point out where exactly you've seen them.
