what was the banking plot from superman 2

In the movie Superman II, there is a subplot involving a group of criminals attempting to rob a bank in East Houston. The criminals, led by a man named Rocky, use a variety of weapons and tactics to try to break into the bank's vault, including a bulldozer and explosives.

Superman, who had recently given up his powers to be with Lois Lane, is unable to intervene directly. However, he eventually decides to don the costume once again and uses his wits and resourcefulness to stop the criminals and save the bank and its employees.

The banking plot is not the primary focus of the movie, which revolves around Superman's confrontation with General Zod and his fellow Kryptonian villains. However, it provides a memorable sequence in which Superman demonstrates his heroism and resourcefulness, even without his powers.

oops, i meant superman 3

My apologies for the confusion. In Superman III, the plot involving a bank centers around the villainous businessman Ross Webster, who attempts to take over the world's oil supply by using a supercomputer to manipulate the commodities market.

To achieve his goal, Webster enlists the help of computer programmer Gus Gorman, who creates a synthetic Kryptonite that turns Superman evil. In one of the film's key scenes, Superman, under the influence of the Kryptonite, goes on a rampage and breaks into a bank to steal money.

The bank robbery scene in Superman III is a significant departure from the character's traditional heroic behavior, and it serves to highlight the danger of the synthetic Kryptonite and its effect on Superman's personality. Ultimately, Superman overcomes the Kryptonite's influence and foils Ross Webster's plans, restoring his status as a hero.

wasn't there something with fractional cents being collected to a secret account?

Yes, you are correct. In Superman III, Ross Webster (played by actor Robert Vaughn) hatches a plan to steal millions of dollars by manipulating the rounding of fractions of a cent.

The plan involves diverting the fractions of a cent from various financial transactions to a secret account. Gus Gorman (played by actor Richard Pryor) is tasked with writing a computer program to carry out this scheme, which is intended to go unnoticed because the amounts are so small.

Superman eventually uncovers the plan and thwarts Webster's attempt to steal the money. This storyline serves as a commentary on the potential dangers of technology and the importance of ethical behavior in the financial industry.
