The title of Superman II is " The Adventure Continues.
How come this is never used; SII TAC should be the abbreviation.

I think it's because it's one of those things used in promotions (posters, trailer voiceover) but not in the film itself. Sort of like X2: X-Men United or Die Hard 2: Die Harder.

Would the Superman movies even be classified as an "adventure" anyway? When does Superman go on an adventure? Who decided to subtitle SII TAC? Was it another one of Lester's bright ideas?

I actually didn't mind it- as I felt the subtitle suggested that the story was incomplete (as it was) for the first movie.

They should have gone with the original title:
Superman III: Superman vs Superman

Most of them are classified under adventure, action, sci fi, family and a few other genres on IMDb. The Salkinds or WB probably added the subtitle in marketing.

Well heck they should have just gone al-in with the title. The Adventure Continues: Superman II The Adventures Grows Stale: Superman III The Adventure Blows Like NuclearMan Blew Superman in Space : Superman IV
