- TriviaAfter Margot Kidder expressed her disgust about the firing of Richard Donner to producers Alexander Salkind and Ilya Salkind, her role was cut to 12 lines and less than five minutes of screen time. In the film's 2006 DVD commentary, Ilya Salkind says there was little need for Lois Lane in this movie because her relationship with Superman ended at the end of Superman II (1980).

Ross Webster: I ask you to kill Superman, and you're telling me you couldn't even do that one, simple thing.
- Alternate versionsBroadcast version uses separate title sequence similar to original Superman - The Movie titles, with adapted John Williams theme. Theatrical and home video versions had difficult-to-read titles over opening slapstick sequence.

Featured review
Superman vs St. Louis Assassin -part 3
this film is not at all as bad as some people would have you to believe it is.
Once again the acting is superb (the acting was great in all 4 of these movies-even when the scripts aren't) I have a good time with this film every time I see it.
It is the only Superman movie that doesn't open with John Williams awesome soundtrack. It's also the only one of the 4 movies where Superman fails to go to the fortress of solitude. It is also the only one without Lex Luther. ......so yes it was a departure from the first 2 films. this movie had far more comic relief in it. Richard Pryor done an outstanding job in this movie.
yes I will admit that parts 1 and 2 are much better films than part 3.
this is a good movie and curses to those who slam it. this is a fun movie.
