That was perhaps one of the biggest "What the heck" moments in all of movie history. Family guy made a funny joke about this sometime ago.

Yeah, its just a brief example of Lester's complete misunderstanding of the Superman mythos, contrasted by Donner where he knew it down to a tee. It is in minor form in Superman II because it was balanced out by Donner's wonderful footage but in Superman III when Lester had total control you can really see the elements that he was trying to bring to the series. The giant celophane S was one of his lamest inventions, so much that family guy made an entire re-constuction of the climax of Superman II where everyone stops to contemplate the logic of throwing a giant celophane S from his chest.
