turns out i dont think it was real -"he goes back to jor-el n gets his powers back" but had the film followed this i think it would of flowed much better.

"Superman returns to Earth and has to juggle his ruined relationship with Lois while Lex Luthor is trying to kill and kills "billions!". I'll be flat, the second half of the film is where it really gets going. The first half is him in space, then in smallville, and then finally returning to Metropolis. Bits and pieces of Luthor and Lois are thrown in but not a lot. Like every other Superhero film with the exception of Batman, it gets going about an hour in when our hero finally...ahem...returns. The airplane/space shuttle saving is really incredible...the fx were not done but you could tell from what was there this will be a very intense and memorable scene. Panic flows from Mission control as the first not-nasa-related space flight seems to be a complete disaster until Superman show's up. He also saves the plane, and sets down in the middle of a baseball stadium. He goes inside and gives a little speech, and then goes to leave the front door to walk into 1000 cameras...so the world knows: hes back.

Then there was a very enjoyable sequence of Superman doing various jobs saving the world. He saves some mountain climbers, puts out some fires, and finally, he stops a bank robbery that was really cool. Now comes little bits and pieces of Lois and Clark, either in the daily planet, or Superman watching her or some ****, combined with little bits of Luthor and his scheme. He's kicked an elderly woman out of her mansion and taken her yacht, why we'll find out later. He robs a museum of it's kryptonite so he can kill Superman.

Meanwhile, the world is DYING to know where Superman's been, and Lois is basically forced by White to give him an interview, no matter how much she does not want to. It's hard, especially for her. They do eventually begin to warm up to each other, and end it with a very, very memorable scene where they go flying. Lois is still nervous, but they kind of fall of in love while they go flying. You wont get it now, but when you see it on screen you'll know what I mean. It just looks...right.

Other little bits happen, but now here's the next action scene. In comparison to the first two this is very, very small, and it's also complicated. Basically, Lois and Jason are...kidnapped would be the word I guess-by Lex and his crew. Heres where we find out his plan-he's used to the kryptonion technology he got at the fortress to make a new continent. It's already partially created, and by making it full with this kryptonion missile he has would cause a massive worldwide Earthquake and kills billions!Used as bait, Superman comes, and Lex and his men fight him, using stolen kryptonite to make him powerless. They STAB him with the kryptonite, and he's essentially dies right before lois as they shove him off a cliff on new krypton.

So, with Superman seemingly out of the way, Lois in tears, Lex locks em up in the boat, and proceeds ahead. What he does not count on is his girlfriend, the weird Kitty Kosloski, thinks he's nuts and is having a change of heart. Meanwhile, Superman go to the fortress of solitude, where Jor-el gives him his powers back just in time to save the day as the big earthquake hits. I wont spoil the rest, but I'll just say, it's good. The very final scene of the film is also, a an instant classic. This film is the ultimate blockbuster-action,drama,comedy. It's got a very happy ending all around"
 
You know who got it right at AICN? Moriarity - remeber his negative review based on a leaked script, It came out the day the trailker did in April I think it was. He was blasted high and low at BT and other sites for claiming there was no action in the film and that Superman just moped around feeling sorry for himself. This brings it all back.

Yea, the flaming all came when he typed the words, "piano yeidling 5 year old." I didn't believe him either, but I will say I enjoyed the movie so it doesn't matter.
 
There was never a sequence where Jorel gives Superman back his powers, must be talking about Jorel's VO in the ocean.

Not in this movie, at any rate

I don't think anything was ever written as to that, nevermind filmed, interesting though.
