details

• 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.
  
  
• Continuity: During the hotel room sequence, Clark's hair changes length and style several times between shots (this due to the scene being cobbled together from two sets of screen tests filmed months apart).
  
  

• Continuity: SPOILER: In the last scene of the film, Clark returns to the diner to have his revenge on the bully who had beat him up earlier. Several references in dialogue are made to the previous encounter. However this scene is placed in the reedited film after Superman has turned back the clock, so therefore no-one should remember Clark or the previous fight. In addition, Clark sports the same, longer hairstyle he had during the first fight, and not the shorter cut he is shown sporting at the Daily Planet in the scene preceding this.
  
  

• Incorrectly regarded as goofs: SPOILER: After Superman reverses time and everyone "forgets" what happened, he goes back to the diner to settle the score with the truck driver. This scene, as originally presented in the theatrical release, potentially creates a plot hole in this version, because nobody at the diner should remember what happened before. However, the Donner cut subtly nips and tucks this scene, removing all direct references to the previous scene, to make it appear it takes place at the "same" time as before. In other words, following the time reversal, "Superman shoots first."
