KnightWing Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 The season lost all it's momentum to me when Lois showed up, and stayed. Th show was good when Clark was in High School figuring out his powers. Now I just want him to become Superman and kill this show. There is nowhere else for the story to go since we all know how it ends. I agree with that. What's curious to me is that they've deliberately altered the Superman lore, so it's unclear exactly how it will all work out in the end. I really hope that we actually see a suit, though. We deserve that after all these years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuaveStar Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 My biggest issue is, where the fuck do the producers see the chemistry between Kristin Kreuk and Tom Welling? I'm serious, every scene their in together seems to be trying to get blood from a stone, they are so flat. Welling has more chemistry with the guy who played Pete! (Surprised they haven't changed THAT part of the mythology) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Chloe is the only girl on the show I don't want something terrible to happen to, or at least she was up until 3 seasons ago. I haven't watched since so who knows how they fucked her up since then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DCAUFan1051 Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 I've said this before that I'm now the proud owner of the Superman Ultimate Collection DVD set... and on a special feature on one of the discs... Gough and Millar state that Smallville is "supposed" to be clark dealing with puberty and superpowers. Now that Clark is no longer a teenager why the hell are they continuing this show based on that premise? I think where they went wrong with smallville is continuing after Gough and Millar left the show. Honestly even though I defended Season 8 last year I think now that the show could have ended at Season 7. I'll catch up on S9 when the DVDs come out.

Because Gough & Miller went crazy and decided that they didn't want to end the show at the end of high school. Also, the CW network needs anything that gets even mediocre ratings, so they didn't want to let go of Smallville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Does the show even take place in Smallville anymore? Last I saw it was in Metropolis. They should have changed the name. There is a rumor about a Metropolis movie ending the series next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a rumor about a Metropolis movie ending the series next year. If that means the start of a new show set in Metropolis, I might've believed it. This show is just one of those shows that never die, and is like a car crash, I just can't help but watch and say "Another season, jesus, well, when's it on" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightAngle04 Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 Maybe its the very low standards I have for this show, maybe it was the good mood I was in or maybe I was just missed Terrence Stamp's voice, but I really enjoyed this episode and even though I still think Clark should be banging Chloe I didn't mind Lois here. And Tom Welling is very underrated when it comes to wacky faces. Oh and does anyone know why Clark and Chloe are no longer friends? Because I for the life of me can't remember, she cannot possibly blame him for Jimmy's death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koete Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 The three members of the JSA coming to Smallville are Stargirl, Hawkman, and Doctor Fate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Michael Shanks as Hawkman? ... HAHAHA. This is going to be either horribly cheesy or amazingly awesome. Shanks is a good actor, I've just never seen him in anything besides a nerdy science geek role. The other two look perfect, however. Ooooo, and Geoff Johns is writing? Yay.

SuaveStar Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 No hour man!? I just saw a pic of the guy playing Hawkman, yay. Johns said on Twitter Yes, Hawkman will have wings. And a big mace. Oh. And he and Green Arrow don't get along. At all. I don't care if he's fucking with me, I want to see it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I will watch just to see how they manage to pull off Hawkman's wings. And to see if they give Stargirl the full on Jack knight Comic Rod staff. Fate I could care less about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxPower Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Shanks is a spy/tough guy in Burn Notice and is actually pretty convincing. If I remember correctly he started beefing up a bit in the last couple seasons of Stargate... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 If I remember correctly he started beefing up a bit in the last couple seasons of Stargate... Yeah, he did. I remember watching Season 10 and having to do a double-take because I could barely believe that it was the same dweeby guy from the first season. I'm actually really excited now.

KnightWing Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 WOW. Y'know, I hate to say it, but I totally suspected something like this. Even going back to Season 1 of Smallville, something very subtle about Sam Jones screamed "dark secret, probably drug-related." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koete Posted October 23, 2009 Report Share Posted October 23, 2009 From Geoff Johns' Twitter: Yes, my "Society" episode of SMALLVILLE is actually an insane DCU infused two-part epic. Part I is "Society" and Part II is "Legends." Glen Winter is directing "Society" and Tom Welling is directing "Legends." They both brought so much to Legion. I am very excited for this.
