Unlike Superman and Superman II, Superman III didn’t even bother teasing the next installment in the franchise. Really, by the time that movie’s end credits hit, did anyone even want another entry? Hadn’t the Salkinds done enough damage to the Man of Steel? And yet, as we all know, a fourth installment in the Superman series did indeed hit theaters…with a nearly unmatched thud.
If you remember from our previous instalment of What Happened to This Movie?!, Superman III was plagued with all sorts of problems both on and off the screen. So what happened this time around? Turns out, the series would be facing its greatest battles yet, with the rights being passed to another studio, its star only signing on so he could finance another movie altogether and the budget getting chopped in more than half!
And so, let’s suit up one more time and go “nuclear” as we find out: What Happened to This Movie?!

I saw that beast in my theater.
Yeah, I watched it in my local fleapit when it was out with a bunch of my friends, we were pretty disappointed.
Wasn’t that the one made on a low budget by Cannon Films?
