I've always wondered why and how the Kryptonians in Superman II suddenly acquired the ability to levitate objects, shoot rays from their fingertips and create forcefields.

This movie has absolutely nothing to do with Superman

Because it's Superman II, for god's sake. Don't expect any kind of-- look, just don't watch it, okay? Go straight to Superman Returns, the first movie's sequel-in-spirit.

I know -- should I really expect anything decent from Richard Lester aside from the first two Beatles movies? By the way, have you seen the Richard Donner cut of Superman II? I haven't but I've wondered about it. It came out on DVD a couple years ago (maybe around the time of Superman Returns). Apparently, he completely recut the film beginning to end so that its as close to what he wanted to do before the producers canned him. It's supposed to be a lot more in line with the first movie and much lighter on the cheese. It could be awful but who knows?
