Eh, it's "take it or leave it," really (I'd say leave it, but it's whatever). How does III not work with anything else?

Mostly just because it's Word Of God, I guess. Albeit not everyone who saw "Returns" was fully aware of the in-universe backstory anyway. But it was spoken by the powers-that-be that Lois's son had been conceived with Clark during Superman II, and that he went into space looking for Krypton very shortly afterwards. It's also heavily implied that he wouldn't have gone anywhere if he'd known Lois was pregnant, and obviously feels bad about it but doesn't know how to broach the subject. Since he didn't know she was pregnant, he must have gone into space within a few weeks after the second film. It's vague how soon III takes place after II, but one imagines that at least several months have passed, and they speak of the events of I taking place "years ago". I and II canonically happen not too far apart, so once you get into all of that, if Lois isn't either pregnant or a mother by the time III takes place, then it doesn't fit within the same timeline as "Returns".
I mean, yeah, a person can squint and make it fit if they wanted to, but it's ultimately pointless. III doesn't add anything significant to the timeline other than, "And one time he got migraine-drunk and beat himself up in a junkyard." Since the creators of SR went so far as to say, "III doesn't exist within this timeline," I don't see why anyone would try and force it. Gus Gorman and Ross The Boss aren't exactly Luthor and Brainiac, y'know? The timeline where III and IV happened can be the "Suck Timeline". Where Superman got outwitted by Richard Pryor and then kitty-scratched to near-death by a bodybuilder. Why would anyone ever fight to keep those things canon?

Clark's mother is dead in Superman III, where as she's alive in Superman Returns

Yes, also that. Thanks for pitching in, I was dog-tired last night.

By far the best part of Superman III was Annette O'Toole as Lana.
She'd be gettin' plenty O'Toole from me, that's fer sure. Hah hah hah, HI-YOOOOO. She still has pretty nice boobs.

The only super attractive lady in Superman stuff is Kristin Kreuk. Amazing. She was the only reason I gave that show a shot (not much of a shot, but I did try). She looks the same as she did in season 1 while everyone else "melted."
I'd even let her brand me like they do in that sex cult she was a part of, or whatever.

Whaaaaaat. She's a beanpole. If there was anyone f*ckable on that awful show it was whatsername who played Lois. Although the chick who played Supergirl was also pretty hot.
And you're thinking of Alison Mack with the sex cult. Who I would mack indeed, or at least back then. Not looking quite so fit these days. And I'm sure she'll acquire a taste for fur-burger in prison, so I'm probably not her type anyway. Annette O'Toole has big hooters, I respect that. Plus older chicks kinda rev my engine.

Can't click links at work. But I swore I heard she was never in very deep and cut ties before she could do anything indictable.
And the name I couldn't think of before was "Erica Durance". Seen plenty of nudes on her. Great stuff. I hate when I can't think of something, and then it just hits me while I'm scratching my ass or something. Kristen Kruek never got nude so she can f*ck right off, both for that and that terrible Chun-Li movie. Which I fully admit to holding a grudge about.

As much as I really loathe the current state of Arrow, Flash and Legends (Supergirl and Batwoman don't register for me) that looks really, really good.

The Crossovers have yet to disappoint Crisis on Earth X and Elseworlds I thought were really good too

Crisis on Earth-X was awesome. Elseworlds was less... cohesive or riveting, but still a decent showing.

Tonight we saw
Earth-89 Alexander Knox was reading a newspaper that said Batman caught the joker. they also played the danny elfman theme. Also the bat signal was lit and he said hope your watching big guy. Earth 66 had Burt Ward as Dick Grayson. Also we saw the earth with Titans Jason Todd and Hawk.

I like how they made sure and show Cuckman give up/run out of juice with the heat vision long before Supergirl did.
And about the Batman 89 bit... am I the only one confused by the headline of that magazine? Batman killed the Joker in that universe 30 years ago. We saw it.
