Line 30:
* [[Bus Full of Innocents]]
* [[California Collapse]]: Caused by Luthor's plan to hit the fault line with a nuke. Luckily Supes can lift up the whole state.
* [[Can Not Tell a Lie]]: Miss Tessmacher's sole reason for freeing Superman is that if he promises he'll save Hackensack, NJ first (saving her mother in the process), she knows he'll keep it.
* [[Clark Kenting]]: Christopher Reeve made Superman's switch between identities incredibly convincing and less dependent on [[MST3K Mantra]] than in the comics. It's especially apparent during the scene where he nearly reveals himself to Lois in her apartment, and shows the audience what Superman would look like in Clark Kent's suit.
* [[Comes Great Responsibility]]: Jor-El teaches this trope to Superman.
Line 104 ⟶ 103:
* [[Weaksauce Weakness]]: Of course people will argue the [[Kryptonite Factor]], but at least it's [[Unobtainium|supposed to be rare]].
* [[Whooshing Credits]]: The [[Trope Maker]]. Reportedly the credits for the first movie alone cost $1 million, more than a lot of movies of the time.
* [[CanWill Not Tell a Lie]]: Miss Tessmacher's sole reason for freeing Superman is that if he promises he'll save Hackensack, NJ first (saving her mother in the process), she knows he'll keep it.
