4	* Only Richard Pryor would play a hacker capable of not only creating a computer capable of killing Superman, but also hack the Don't Walk/Walk Sign to make the figures representing the two warnings fight each other causing a Traffic Jam.
5	* Gus discovering that he has to insert both keys at the same time in order to boot up a computer at a Webscoe subsidiary in Smallville called [=WheatKing=]. It makes one wonder what this subsidiary does on the side. Missile silo duty comes to mind.
6	* Gus' initial attempts at inserting ''both'' keys at the ''same'' time and then using the "Philly Flash" with an unconscious Brad and his yo-yo, while drunk, to defeat the Two-Keyed Lock.
7	* Ross admonishing Gus with this winner: "I ask you to kill Superman, and you're telling me you couldn't even do that one, simple thing."
8	* "Wow, what a jukebox!"
9	* "In other words, push this red button."
10	* "I can't ski!"
11	* "Viva Superman!"
12	* "No wonder they sent it back!"
13	* Lorelei accidentally dropping her DumbBlonde act for a moment, then trying to cover it up. "Kryptonite." BEAT. "Krypton ham, krypton heimer...I know things." "Yeah, based on the graffiti I've seen..."
14	* "Baby! It's daddy!"
15	* When Gus's robbery of Ross is first brought up, another employee says that the thief is bound to slip up sooner or later (based on what he's seen in the movies) and Ross rejects this idea.
16	--> '''Ross:''' No, he'll not do a thing to call attention to himself, [[InadvertentEntranceCue unless he's a complete and utter moron]].
17	--> (As Ross gazes out the window he sees Gus driving up in a very expensive new Ferrari 308).
18	* Clark helps Ricky win at bowling. "Gesundheit!"
19	* Couple having breakfast, husband gets department store bill, HilarityEnsues.
20	* Everything during the opening credits roll.
21	* "Can I really go back to middle America," says Kent, "after having become a Metropolis sophisticate?" and everyone pauses to look at him because he just said something so stupid.
22	* During the chemical fire, an extra is going "waaaah waaah I'm on faaaar, help me" etc.
23	* Rescue worker looks round, sees Superman standing there, and doesn't react at all, except to say "Forget the helmet!"
24	* All of the source code and commands typed into the computers by Gus are jokes if you [[FreezeFrameBonus look at them]].
25	* The very first scene has Gus explaining that, essentially, he was too dumb to work at UsefulNotes/McDonalds!
26	* Gus, or Richard Pryor, thinks the best way to obfuscate the killing of Superman is to dress as a General and then incongruously launch into a very loud speech about the American plastics industry. Apparently, it worked. No one suspected anything was wrong, even Superman. Apart from the fact that he didn't die.
27	* Gus' rambling explaination to his boss about his failure to kill Superman citing the "chicken-in-a-bucket" recipie as an example of what "unknown" means.
28	* After witnessing Gus get dropped off by Superman, a pair of coal miners ask him if he knows Superman. Gus then makes an awkward joke that gets no laughs:
29	-->'''Gus''': Superman? Me an' him go way back. ''(rips off suit, revealing his shirt)''
30	* At the reunion when Clark goes to dance with Lana, the music switches from the uptempo "Roll Over Beethoven" cover by Music/TheBeatles to the slower "Earth Angel" but Clark keeps energetically twist dancing like a dork until realizing the song changed.
