Lex creates a giant kriptonite encrusted Island and stabs Superman with Kriptonite. Superman falls into the sea and it looks like curtains for him when Lois and her husband Richard come and rescue him. Lois takes the Kryptonite out and Superman, half recovered goes back to the island, lifting it up with all his strength. Lex and his buddies go to leave but his henchman get killed and he and Kitty leave in a helicopter, Kitty dropping the crystals as they leave. Superman throws the island from Earths atmosphere and tumbles back to earth with a thump, leaving him in a coma. Superman lives and finds out that Lois Lane's son is his. He says the same thing to the boy (the son becomes the father and the father becomes the son) that his dad said to him. It is left very open at the end, for sequel's sake I take it, but Lois makes it clear she wants Superman in their lives and her current boyfriend is out of the picture. She asks him whether he she will see him around and he replies 'I'm always around Lois' and flies off.
Visible crew/equipment: When Lois pulls up to the house where the blackout was traced to, she hears some music coming from the boat down at the dock. As the camera pans upwards over the car, as she steps out, the whole camera and a crew member are reflected in the side of the car.
Trivia: Just after the Jet "lands" in the stadium, the film shoots back over to Lex and his gang at the mansion. We see a closeup of the battered miniature town and there is a downed sign showing the name of the model railroad city, "Smallville."
Question: If the crystal grows when it is dropped into water, whatever happens to all the chunks that fall off the new continent as Superman lifts it out of the ocean? Wouldn't they simply continue to grow and begin the crisis all over again?
Chosen answer:The chunks that fall off the "new" land are actually bits of the earth's crust. Superman had actually drilled himself way beneath the "new" land (under the bottom of the ocean floor) so that he was not in contact with the Kryptonite infected crystal land, so that he could lift it up and get rid of it. It is this earth crust that falls off slowly, revealing the kryptonite crystals beneath, and this is why his strength slowly gets taken away as he flies higher, until there is too much exposed and he loses all his strength.
