Why in God's name wasn't it on tonight? Channel guide says it's on, their Facebook page announced it's on tonight... and instead it's some lame-ass pseudo vampire crap.

The most irritating part is that they delayed it for an "encore" episode of something that aired just yesterday... and was a repeat to begin with, apparently.
The Smallville Facebook page is being bombarded with SO much nerd rage....
Gordon Bleedin' Bennett....
They better show a double bill for next week. :::)

it was the same with Supernatural as well, with no explanation for the delay given
Aparentley, Zod and Kara will crop up again before the finale.
The finale is possibly going to be 2 hours.

Yay! Clark finally flew!! Sure it was in the Matrix but stil Lois inspired him enough to fly! Good ep. Twas good to see Chloe again!
The conflict of the ep was weak. All I'm sayin'...
Glad it was on this week. There should have been a double bill to make up for last Friday's dogs dinner line-up.
I thought the Matrix theme was an excellent way of getting Clark to fly without him not flying, if you catch my drift. Maybe he can carry that confidence into the real world and take to the skies at last.

Lol! I was thinking the same thing.
But seeing Chloe back and Clark flying was cool.
Overall I think it's season's weakest episode. It felt too weird.

Probably Police Academy 6 on the bus towards the end.
Back in December, the CW were asking fans to film Superhero testomonials in support of the Blur. The submitted videos (the ones liked best) will be seen in the episode Beacon in what I assume a montage.

End-of-series curveball... That's what. So, I have a few questions. How badly is Raph's Girl misrepresenting the news this time. Also, for anyone who has been keeping track, has there been an ep this season since the premiere where more than one actor portrayed Lex? Also, how many actors have played this last Lex clone so far? Four or so?

i still don't get it
This Lex clone really isn't Lex but is Superboy. Lex will return but in a different way and not by being a clone as we expected.
i still don't get it
Connor was a teenage clone of Supes in the comics, one of four who cropped up after the Death Of Superman and Funeral For A Friend arc claiming to be or just acting as a replacement for Superman. Now, I could believe it if Raph's Girl was just trying to say that Alexander's origin is based on Connor Kent's, but to say that he IS that character is just absurd as he keeps wanting Clark dead.
Anyhow, I'm putting all this behind spoiler tags so that anyone who hasn't read her spoiler won't figure it out.

The England scene shown on Lois' screen was pretty badly executed. Just sticking a Union Jack on previously used Canadian rooftops with diagetic Australian-like cheering voices edited in don't cut the mustard ;)

Chloe's scene in the barn with Clark in the end:
Chloe: Clark-
Clark: You're my best friend. You have done so much to make me the man I am today.
Chloe: (smiles) Well every epic tale needs someone to believe in the hero.
Clark: They are the ones that inspire them to realize their potential.
Chloe: (sad smile) And that's why I have to go. You are not alone Clark Kent. In all my globe-trotting I met several others like you. Heroes who sometimes need someone to believe in them.
Clark: (grins) Anyone I know? If you need, you could use me as a reference.
Chloe: (smirk) You forget, I've seen who you become and the friends you make along the way. We've met some of them, but there are so many more out there. A Billionaire with high-tech gadgets who embraces the night. A Princess who is pretty wondrous will definitely throw you for a loop. (knowing smile)
Clark: That all sounds amazing... And lonely.

Well the description for Booster has been released. Looks like Booster is up to his same old antics of being an arse wanting only fame and fortune. :D
After everything that happened with the VRA, Lois (Erica Durance) tells Clark (Tom Welling) it’s best to make “Clark Kent” forgettable and awkward so people don’t suspect he’s The Blur. However, the two are stunned when a fame-hungry superhero from the future, Booster Gold (guest star Eric Martsolf, “Days of Our Lives”), sweeps into town and begins making saves and posing for press ops, completely winning over the city of Metropolis. Booster begins his campaign to take The Blur’s place as the “World’s Greatest Superhero” and tries to charm Lois into writing a story about him, but she’s not having his antics and begins her own campaign for The Blur. During one of Booster’s saves, an alien weapon in the form of a scarab falls from a truck and fuses itself to a boy named Jaime Reyes (guest star Jaren Brandt Bartlett), turning him into the Blue Beetle. Unfortunately, Jaime is unable to control the suit and Blue Beetle starts attacking Metropolis.

so judging by all the interviews from the showrunners and Erica Durance about the finale, how many of you expect that we wont see Tom in the suit?
They all seem to dodge the question and give you an answer like "You'll definitely get a sense of who he becomes at the end of the series". I have a feeling he'll stare at the suit, then it will cut to the sky and we'll see a blur fly by.
If we do see him in the suit, it will either be:
1) for less than 2 seconds
2) Cgi
3) both
4) He rips his shirt open, we see the S. Thats it.
But thats just my guess. Yours?

Guess they couldn't do the CGI on him? :/ Ah well...so in the Smallville-verse Dan Garrett was just somebody who worked for Ted Kord, couldn't control the beetle, and was killed when it was taken off him. Ted Kord was NEVER the Beetle.... Jaime is the only Blue Beetle. Different but acceptable...I guess....

Twentysomethings playing teens on screen is nothing new. The general stigma in filmmaking is that real teenagers are a pain in the seat. :).
IRRC The second actor who was Clark in the old Superboy show was in his mid-thirties.
Looking forward to this new episode. Bearded Zod ftw.

$340? Dang. They better hope there are enough folks out there who don't already have seasons on disc or who are that willing to double-dip. Being that it's a 62-disc collection, I foresee that it'll be the equivalent of the standard releases of the ten seasons plus two bonus discs that will likely be repackaged and sold separately sometime.

I wanna know more of the backstory with how Darkseid was "defeated the first time"....so his son, Orion, defeated him in the past on earth and became the legend for Orion the Hunter? At least that's what Im getting out of this anyways. Or was it Hawkman who defeated him WITH Orion? Either way they're basically saying Hawkman had encounters with the New Gods at one point.

Just watch the promo for next week's episode. 15 seconds in there's a bunch of villains around a table. MANY look familiar to regular readers of comics. For around that table are: Black Manta, Captain Cold, Dark Archer, Toy Man (in the middle), Metallo, Roulette (or possibly Giganta), and Solomon Grundy! And apperantly they're all minions of Darkseid!! :o

Kristin is awesome. Lana is not.
But i still wanted Lana to come back this season, if anything to have proper closure on the whole Clark/Lana relationship. The way it ended, it kind of negated Lois to being second choice. Its like the story is telling you "Clark's TRUE love is out there, but he'll never have her".
...plus, they really gotta clear up that stupid kryptonite power "suit" she's wearing. But ah well. It's never exactly been a perfect show so what can ya do :P

This is one pop-culture phenomenon that passed me by as well. Of course, I can't really say I jumped on at any point. I got a little bit excited last year at the prospect of Superman getting into an all-out brawl with an awesome looking Doomsday monster... but I guess I never actually bothered to tune in and see what happened.
Doomsday looked like a drooling retard. The fight only lasted a minute or two and was reminiscent of a Saban production.

Well Smallville is over and I loved the ending!
Sure we didn't see a real clear show of him in full costume but to me that doesn't really matter. He wore the costume, he saved the day!
It was cool to see Lex again and Pa Kent (who I guess was either a ghost or some avatar Jor El made).... and I loved it that Aaron Ashmore returned as Jimmy! That was a huge surprise! Never expected that little boy from the funeral to look exactly like his brother. *lol*
Too bad they never named Chloe and Ollie's son. Im thinking it was Roy but for all I know it could be Conner. Either way the shirt he had on was Steel!
But I wonder why it took Lois and Clark another 7 years to marry? That was strange.
I also wonder who voiced Darkseid?
Ninja_Shoe_Repair
05-14-2011, 02:28 AM
They probably had them marry later on out of respect to continuity which they have strayed from in the past. Lois and Clark didn't marry until well into his Superman career and not at the beginning of it as life happens sometimes...especially when you are a superhero.
A lot of people complain about the costumes or characters and how little the battles are or whatever the case may be. I give the show a lot of credit for bringing to life these characters in any form as I never thought I'd see a live action doomsday, booster gold, green arrow, darkseid (they did show him in a smoke and mirrors way), martian headhunter, hawkman, star girl, maxima, dr fate, etc, etc, etc. These characters probably will never get their own time in a movie so it's great to see the creators of the show at least try to fit them in somewhere. A cameo by Bruce Wayne would have been nice at some point. I'm surprised they never tried that since Oliver is also a billionaire so it would have been easy to find a way to put him on as a guest even if not as Batman.
The show also has a TV budget. You can only do so much with so little. I think they did the best with what they had. There were some stupid stories, even less stimulating seasons but the episodes that were good, were really good. This show first aired 10 years ago during my junior year of college. I've been able to pinpoint certain events in my life by them also happening the same time on the show ranging from major break-ups, to deaths, to engagements and weddings. I will truly miss this show even if it wasn't always at its best. Great ending in my opinion.

I really appreciated that they made Lex President. When Smallville first premiered, that was the status quoe for the character in the comics at the time and they hinted at it strongly in early episodes.
I'm a little bugged they had Lex lose all his memories of his seven years in Smallville...felt like they were trying too hard to stay in line with the status quoe, but I'll forgive it because Lex losing all he learned due to how he lived his life was a great contrast to how Clark's growth and experiance shaped him into the hero he was born to be[
And, yes, Clark wears the suit but is reduced to a long-distance spec makes me think the producers didnt trust the budget to showcase a full on view of "tights and flights"....or they didnt want to take away from the experiance of seeing Superman do all of those theatrics in theatres.
The mighty planet Apokolyps being pushed to the side in the last five minutes also bugged me. Way too easy and worse than the fight with Bloomesday in season eight...but when you only have ten minutes left, what do ya do? This really could have done with a third hour like BSG had.
But the final scene was sheer magic, the arrangement of the Williams love theme followed by the Superman march reminded me of the great journey we had been on for ten years
Just bought the score on Amazon (now avail in the UK). Great memories.
Well Smallville is over and I loved the ending!
Sure we didn't see a real clear show of him in full costume but to me that doesn't really matter. He wore the costume, he saved the day!
I expected that anyway considering that only the top half of the costume was shown in the fortress.
I liked the idea of costumed Clark/Superman being vague in that if Superman was real he'd probably not stick around long enough for someone to get an in-depth still-life analysis of how he looks, just the basics of his red and blue outfit.
The comic sketch of Supes at the end gave me the impression that the artist has had little detail to reference by. Then again Clark's picture looked so much like Clark.
I'm sad this show has finished.
Then again there is so much potential for the same production team to do something else with another DC universe character. The end of Smallville has left a large gap that I don't even think the possibly canned Wonderwoman can fill.

They had to honor their own continuity, at least. It would be a pathetically lame retcon if they didn't since Ryan said Lex was destined for The Oval Office several seasons ago.

That was a story-writing dilemma. On the one hand, to bring Lex back would be to put Clark's secret in immediate jeapordy. Having his illegitimate little sister wipe his memory as her parting gift was the easiest option to alleviate that threat without saying that Lex would never be a problem again.

I read the reason for the way they handled the suit and Clark wearing it was contractual.
The handling of the suit was absolutely perfect (even though frustratingly, a complete reveal of Welling in the suit wasn’t included – damned contractual issues)

Apparently they were not allowed to show Welling wearing the suit. Or am I way off base?

ROFL, true. By the time this season arrived I wondered "My, Clark's Superman life is going to be fairly quiet" even Lex isnt a threat in the future without any of his memories, plus we had a gurantee from Doctor Fate Clark would ultimatley defeat him once he steps out of line.
Krutch

If we do see him in the suit, it will either be:
1) for less than 2 seconds
2) Cgi
3) both
4) He rips his shirt open, we see the S. Thats it.
I guess I kinda got all my guesses right in a way :lol:
I enjoyed the finale. I think it still hasnt hit me that this show is over. I'll probably feel it next year.
As for the finale itself, I think they did alot of things right and one tremendous thing wrong. Clark learning to fly, wearing the suit, and being the inspiration that people needed to overcome the darkness was fantastic. Lex returning was great, as was the nod to Lexcorp. I like how with all the hype of Rosenbaum returning, they still remained focused on Clark and Lex returning was a small subplot. The Darkside "fight" was pretty much what I've come to expect from Smallville lately so I wasnt really disappointed.
But by far the absolute worst thing about the finale was wiping Lex's memories. I mean, all of them. Seriously, if we're going the mind-wipe route, why not just get rid of his knowledge of Clark's secret? Its not impossible. In fact, they did that to Chloe in season 8 when Clark brought her to Jor-El. But to have Lex forget everything is throwing 60 percent of the shows mythology in the trash. In a way, this is kind of a redemption for Lex. He has no traumatic history anymore. He has a fresh start. He's not even Lex anymore, just an empty vessel. F*cking brutal way for his story to end. I'd rather of him not come back at all if this is how they were going to end it.
I've tried to remedy this by telling myself that it was part of Clark's journey to watch and understand the value of family, and since this is Clark's POV, its all part of his trials. But no... I know better. It's just lack of faith in their own mythology and playing it safe.
...
Anyways, despite that rant, I totally did love the finale. If it wasnt for the mind-wipe, I'd give it a 10/10.;)

DaVinci

Some people who didn't care for New 52 Superman are really liking his characterisation in Greg Pak's run on Action Comics so far. It started with #25.
Krutch
01-04-2014, 11:15 AM
What I mean is, the comic book doesn't feel like Smallville. It feels like Your standard pre-new 52 Superman book. And for a Superman book I suppose it's fine. I know that's know that's kind of the point, but... the tone of what made Smallville so charming is gone.
Kind of like the Buffy and Angel comics, writers suddenly feel that since they have no budget they can do anything they want. Then the tone shifts into the absurd because you can't picture that on the show. Smallville for an issue had a bunch of rampaging apes running loose in metropolis. And another Clark was brought to the far far future.
I'm only at the end of Olympus but it feels like the comic series "Smallville" isn't even about Clark at all. While he was brutally passive on the show for most of its run, you could at least tell he was the main character. In the comics, I feel he's completely sidelined to watch Supergirl, Cyborg Superman, The Legion, Wonder Woman, and Batman. Even Tess has more of a story going on than Clark does.
ZariusTwo
01-04-2014, 12:24 PM
In that case, I understand your frustrations with the book completly, and while it can be a problem when the supporting and side characters take up a lot of material, it's probably because I've seen Smallville as more of an ensemble show and not strictly about Clark. I was used to this sort of malarky happening all the time during the final three seasons as well.
Krutch
01-04-2014, 05:45 PM
Smallville certainly was an ensemble show, no doubt. But at least Clark always had the main storyline, even in the last three seasons. Clark stepping up and becoming The Red Blue Blur while investigating Doomsday in season 8. His whole relationship with Zod and the Kandorians for Season 9. And of course, season 10 was all about him overcoming the darkness and taking his last step into his destiny.
Season 11 it feels like they're just using Clark as a vehicle to get to different locations to introduce other character's stories. Lara, Lex, Lois, Lana, Cyborg Superman, Tess, Chloe, Oliver(until he left), Wonder Woman, Batman... they all had arcs that were very clear and apparent. What exactly is his arc this season? It's not "learning to be Superman" since thats pretty much the arc of the final 3 seasons. And he's not doing anything that shouts "I'm learning!". He's just... there. Being there. Because he has to be.
