Try getting a job as a reporter at a large newspaper when you can't spell 'catastrophe'- the editor is the one who does the hiring and the editor is the one who *wouldn't* hire you. Either way I admit it was a minor annoyance in the film's dialogue.

you don't have to be a good speller in order to be a good writer. That's what proof-readers & editors are for. Isaac Asimov couldn't spell for shit, and is still considered one of the greatest writers of our time.

Kevin Spacey also said in a Wizard Magazine interview about his role in SR that not only did he just do the film because Singer asked him to but also that 'its JUST a f*cking comic book movie'. I don't care what film project you take on as an actor- you should treat the material with respect. And IMHO (again) Spacey just coasted his way through the film. I found him very NON-memorable. In fact that's one issue I had with the script- lack of focus. It seemed it couldn't decided whether is was a film about Lois Lane and the effect Superman's departure had on her or a film about Superman and how he dealt with his return.
