That scene was soooo damn stupid lol... so much bullshite.
Uh, the movie is about a guy that flew here as a baby from planet krypton, and once here has supernatural powers. Oh, and the woman he works with doesnt recognize him in a leotard.

All that's completely possible. The Earth rotating turning back time? Naw.
Fastest known speed is faster than you said.
That might be our fastest acheivable speed?
If Superman flies faster than the rotation of the Earth he deals with time at a different rate than thoae closer to the center of the Earth's rotation. Same is true with satellites. In fact, accurate satellite positioning requires an adjustment in time due to this phenomenon...also called relativity.

That would only effect the rate at which he goes forward in time, not allow him to go backwards.
I already gave the correct explanation. So shut up.

He would've brought us into the past by several years had he done that

there is no type of known force he could exert that would stop the rotation of the earth and then make it go in reverse
Well, this is not completely true. First, you must accept that, working within the confines of the story, he can travel fast enough and that he is not limited to "4 times the speed of sound."
So how did his trick work? Gravity.
If Superman has mass then he exerts gravity. At this point, it's just a math problem. True, he exerts very little gravity upon the earth at the distance that had to have been from earth to stay out of the atmosphere. But if he flew fast enough, he could reverse the rotation of the earth. It would just be a matter of how fast he flew and how long it would take to reverse the spin.
This would of course, NOT explain the time travel thing. That part was just stupid.

This is what Black Superman would have done.

Dude, I fricking explained it in painstaking detail. No need to go further, it's done, I won the thread. Just stop.
