Superman II
Three Kryptonian criminals released from the Phantom Zone by a nuclear blast reach Earth with the same powers as its protector and no reason at all to hide them. Meanwhile Lois works out who her colleague is, and the Fortress offers him a way to become mortal for her. Donner was replaced mid-production by Lester, and the compromised result still set the pattern for how a superhero sequel raises its stakes.
