Factual errors: After escaping the Phantom Zone, Zod screams and it echoes. However, as space is a vacuum, the scream not only wouldn't have echoed, but wouldn't have made noise at all.

This should have been the original Superman II! When you watch it, you finally understand what the hell Superman and his father have been saying all these years. It all makes sense now. Having grown up on Superman, I feel cheated!!! I had to wait until now to finally understand one of my favorite film series! It's just a crime!
Not only does Donner's film flow better and enlighten the viewer, it even makes those annoying villains have more purpose. Even as a kid, I thought they were ridiculous. They're still ridiculous in this film, but Donner links them more clearly to Superman's past, so you get pulled into the plot line more.
Watch this film and you'll see my point.
