I figured you would wait until Friday to start the thread.

Got it out of the way, it was on my mind so I created it early.

Wow, hard to believe this show has been on 10 years??

This is the final season right?

correct

Welling always looks so bored at these things, lol.

When they reference "the same suit they used in Superman Returns" I wonder if it's a Clark Kent kind of suit, or a Superman kind of suit.

In a way I think he's unappreciative of having the notoriety being in the Superman universe. His comments of him saying he doesn't to wear the Supes uniform, and would decline a movie offer if it presented itself.

Considering that Dead Cain is pretty much the only guy who's acted as Superman who hasn't died in some horrible way, I think I can understand the reticence.

Just stopped by to say that I still want to **** the shit out of Alison Mack. Carry on.

Does he finally put on the suit in this season and go to work? I used to watch it all the time but I was getting impatient and wanted to see some real Superman cinema.

That was a pretty fantastic start to the season.

Enters Dark Seid

Only on my birthday or anniversary.

Oh, wait, I thought this was a PIIHB thing. Never mind.

Put it in his butt? Is that the one day a year your girl clips a clothespin on her nose and uses her 8" latex mandingo on you?

Don't be silly.

I said "birthday or anniversary".

That's Christmas. :D

I don't even want to know what happens on valentine's day.

Saw a snippet that they wrote Chloe into a Superman comic, which is sort of cool; she was the only character not from the comics so, since she wasn't part of the backstory, I always had the sinking feeling they were gonna kill her off.

I thought she was only a part-timer this season, I was a little surprised to see her name in the opening credits.

It did occur to me tonight how strange it is that the show has involved into the Superman and Green Arrow show, but it doesn't seem to bother anybody. At least it eventually evolved away from Clark and his friends dealing with the meteor freak of the week.

Ep was OK. They also threw in an extra slot of commercials. at least it seemed like it.

I really don't like them bringing Pa Kent back into the picture though. I know it is only for 2 eps but still.

Both that and the dream sequence in the beginning were weird, I thought. There was one other moment that I thought really odd, but I can't remember what it was. Which is sad, since it was only like 4 hours ago.

Clark and his Scooby squad

It was a pretty forgettable episode really. Sure hope the rest of the season is better than that.

You might be thinking of the point that Chloe put the mask on.

Is Michael Rosenbaum coming back in any way as Lex? This show needs him, and let's be real -- he hasn't done shit since he left.

I really hate him for quitting on the series. That was the other part of the ep I really didn't like.

This is what he has done since Smallville.

Absolutey Nada

WTF?

ROFL Zactly

Does Welling bear the Superman suit this season?

He has the suit, whether he wears it or not before the finale is still in question.

(My guess is "not", that he spends the year 'earning the right')

He has been pretty steadfast that he won't wear the suit during the series.

Gay. Not Superman then. I'm glad I didn't keep watching it. I want a legit Superman movie or series. Smallville is cool, but I just miss the real thing. Childhood memories.

Though I do agree with you to an extent, Smallville was never about Superman. It was about Clark.

Yeah I know. I was just hoping the series would've eventually turned into him being Superman. The series, for me just my opinion, has been like a cock tease. Just me though, it's not a bad series I would just prefer to see Superman saving people instead of going to high school.

Considering they have gone into the 10th season, it is really pushing it now. I would assume the he will probably have the suit on at the end of the finale. Still don't know how they will incorporate the glasses as his disguise though considering everybody knows what he looks like now.

They're in pre-production on one now, under the supervision of Christopher Nolan. Should be out in 2012 or 2013.

Nice. Have they chosen who's going to play Superman?

No, they haven't even named a director yet.

Personally, I hope they stick with Brandon Routh. I thought he was perfect in Superman Returns, not the problem with that flick at all. Although maybe he's too old now to carry a trilogy (think he's 32 or so).

He's out indefinitely, because of the large protest of the Supes fanboys and girls.

Nolan's brother is going to direct.

I don't think his name's even in the running. http://www.deadline.com/2010/09/chri...rman-director/

I'm not sure why you're posting a story from March to try and invalidate a story from two days ago.

You said he wasn't in the mix, but evidently he is

He may have been six months ago. If he is now, his name wasn't mentioned.And I could swear I remember a story from June or July where Jonathan Nolan was out of the running but I haven't been able to dig anything up, so maybe that's just my imagination.

Pretty sure SG1 went ten seasons also..

Maybe if smallville wasnt horrible for the past 4+ years they could be proud about making ten years..

I still have no idea how it made it this far.. I still DVR it hoping it will catch its magic from the first seasons.. The only good thing from this, is we got the actor that plays dean in Supernatural..

I actually liked last year a lot. Season 8 was just brutal, though.

More Superman director hunt news, might as well throw it here:

Back on track... just watched the first episode and didn't really get it. Why did Chloe trade herself for Oliver Queen, and why would whoever holding him want Chloe instead? Why did Lois, after finally finding out who Clark was, suddenly bug out at the end of the episode? Were those just two incredibly lame and nonsensical plot devices to explain the fact that Mack and Durance weren't going to be in a lot of episodes? :shrug:

Smallville has been confusing me since 2004!

WTF? two crappy eps in a row?

Chloe has some badass reputation in the hacker world, maybe there is an angle there? Having said that, I was led to believe that Oliver was snagged by minions of Apokolips, so I don't know what the G-Man looking dude was that was working over Oliver was all about. And yeah, I don't get the Lois angle, especially since now she knows for sure that Clark is "The Blur" (worst hero name evah, btw).

"It's a process"

I'm liking this season more than you guys for some reason. I'm curious to see where it's all leading. I'm not sure I'm not enjoying Smallville more than Supernatural through two weeks, which is about a 180 from the previous five years.

I haven't been put off by this season so far, although I will say I was disappointed the Hello Kitty chick wasn't blown to itty bitty pieces.

And he's getting there with the uniform, lol. Baby steps.

I hated that chick. I was hoping the whole episode she'd die in some horrible way.

All I know is that my life won't be complete until I see a full 16-page Maxin photo shoot featuring Erica Durance in a cold, cold room. I need diameter and eraser tips.

SCOOP: Zack Snyder Directing 'Superman'
By MIKE FLEMING Monday October 4, 2010 @ 2:49pm PDT

UPDATE & EXCLUSIVE: I just spoke with Zack Snyder, who confirms that as soon as he completes post on Sucker Punch, he'll move right into Warner Bros' long awaited next Man of Steel movie in development with Chris Nolan and David Goyer. "I've been a big fan of the character for a long time, he's definitely the king of all superheroes, he's the one," Snyder, who directed Watchmen and 300, told me. "It's early yet, but I can tell you that what David and Chris have done with the story so far definitely has given me a great insight into a way to make him feel modern. I've always felt he was kind of awesome. I'll finish Sucker Punch and get right at it."

EXCLUSIVE: Zack Snyder has been chosen to direct the new installment of Superman for Warner Bros and Legendary Pictures. Snyder was on a short list of directors that I recently revealed met with the studio as well as producers Chris Nolan and Emma Thomas. Other choices at the time included helmers Tony Scott, Matt Reeves, Jonathan Liebesman, and Duncan Jones. I think Snyder is an inspired choice. He is a cornerstone filmmaker for Warner Bros., a visual stylist whose efforts for the studio include 300, Watchmen, and the upcoming Sucker Punch. Deadline revealed back on February 9 that the DC Comics stalwart Superman became a priority project when Nolan agreed to godfather it. He and David S. Goyer hatched the story and Goyer wrote the script. The new Superman's producers also include Charles Roven and Deborah Snyder while co-financer Legendary Pictures' Thomas Tull will serve as executive producer. I'm sure there will be hot debate on Snyder as the choice, but judging from 300, you can be sure the Man of Steel will have an inspired six-pack.

Cool. I like the choice not because of what he did with 300, but with what he did with Watchmen.

I didn't like 300 or Watchmen at all so this doesn't really sound like good news to me.

Finally on track. Much better ep.

Lois Lane is so unbelievably hot.

You liked the whip action eh?

Uh, YEAH.

I believe there is naked pictures of her from her first movie or one of her first movies.. Before the boob job..

Really?? Only part I like was the hot superwoman and Green Arrow showing his true identity.. I thought Darkseid sucked the way it was done.. I wanted some damn omega rays or whatever they are to come from his eyes..

The mist shit kind of pissed me off

I don't follow the comics so I don't give a crap about all of that. heh

The hottest thing in that episode was Laura Vandervoort as a brunette with glasses.

Rowr.

And I don't really like the way they're handling darkseid, but, well, whatever, I'm loving this season anyway.

still curious to see how they address Clarks dual identity since he obviously can't just throw on a pair of glasses now.

I like the choice of Snyder. I loved "Watchmen" and "300" and even "Legend of the Guardians" is basically "300 with animated owls". :)

Here's the thing about Snyder: he's not afraid to get down-and-dirty. He shows not only the human side of his characters (their frailties, their bad decisions, their egos) he also shows the blood and the aftereffects. This is what I'd like to see, especially where Superman is concerned. Sure, the last film was a bit too "emo", but I liked seeing Routh showing more sides to the character... otherwise, what IS the character? The Superman as we know him from comics and cartoons is basically an emotion-less caricature like Dick Tracy. And I like the way "Smallville" explores how the character struggled with growing up, having human parents, having human issues such as love and figuring out his direction, having to deal with his real father, etc.,. Hopefully Snyder will basically take that kind of stuff and translate it to an adult Superman. Think about it: if you were almost omnipotent, how WOULD you rationalize the things you did, keep away from the temptation of overusing your powers for your own purposes or crossing the moral line the way some of the characters in "Watchmen" did?

They always have the reset button that is Jor-El and the Fortress of Solitude. He'll magically make the entire world forget. Or something.

This is completely untrue from the comics aspect. You really should read some of the Superman comics before coming to that judgment.

Maybe he'll speed-kiss everyone like he did Lois at the end of "Superman II". :D

Wow. That was a fantastic episode.

It was only a matter of time before they threw Isis in the mix. That is what I thought they were doing with Lana a few years back.

Holy crap. That's gotta be one of the top 10 episodes of the series right there.

I concur all, that was one badass "It's a Wonderful Life" episode.

Erica Durance looked even more :hump:able in that episode. She's rounded out a bit and, IMO, when she plays sweet and demure it's a lot more hot than when she plays slutty.














:rolleyes: Actually, never mind, I like the slutty too. She's just ****ing hot, regardless.
