A character's response to finding an unconscious female accident victim is to molest her under the excuse of "chest massage" and "mouth-to-mouth resuscitation". Played for laughs.
A woman kisses a man without his consent while he's physically unable to resist, explicitly noting that she doesn't believe he would let her if she'd given him a choice.

There is a line of dialogue noting that Lois is risking lung cancer with her smoking habit, but it's also confirmed that she doesn't have it yet.

Yes, after losing power to her brakes, a character has a anxiety attack.
Superman has an anxiety attack after not being able to prevent his co-worker's death.

Superman occasionally appears to look out at the audience: once at the end of the scene where Clark and Lois are mugged, and again at the end of the movie.

Paraphrased: "Otis, do you know why the number '200' is significant to us both? Because it's your weight and my IQ!" Also brief fat insult hurled near the end of the movie, yet it is hard to distinguish.

The villain detonates a stolen nuclear warhead at the climax of the movie. The emphasis is subsequently on seismic damage; there is nobody at ground zero of the blast and due to the science-fictional way the situation is resolved, fallout and radiation damage never become an issue.
