Goofs:

Factual errors: The mask is Irish, which would mean that the emeralds were, too. It's mentioned that the Romans broke pieces up and reused them, but the Romans never went to Ireland, and only controlled a small portion of England and Wales during the reign of the Emperor Claudius.

Quotes:

Clark Kent: You know how, because I'm Superman, I've never had a cold or the flu? So I don't know how that feels. Well, all that has changed since I fell in love with you.
Lois Lane: Are you saying loving me is like being sick?
