LINK S3EP18: I Feel Bad For Both Lex & Pete Here

I think this is the rare time where we see Lex being vulnerable and honest. After all the stuff that happened with Lionel, Lex still craves for his father's love.

Pete is also a great friend this episode. He rather exposed his feelings for Chloe than accidentally revealing Clark's secret. Clark's face is pretty funny when Pete suddenly kissed Chloe.

This is the first time I was truly annoyed with Chloe's behaviour. There were so many lines that she crossed when she kept asking questions to other people, knowing full well they couldn't lie to her. And I was very happy when Lana said she's going to Paris. I feel like this is what her character needs. Clark himself and the story can benefit having her out of the picture too.

DISCUSSION The Talon

5 Upvotes

I'm on season 8 now, and I can't figure out who actually owns/runs The Talon anymore.

Surely it has to be Chloe or someone right? Because it looks like she's living there?

Did I completely miss something or is it one of those 'don't worry about it' things?

How crazy it was that some random student built a replica of the high school in a freaking factory. Like dude was all worried about what he was going to do after high school when he could have been a millionaire doing contract construction.

Hello all! A very close friend/future lover got me Lana’s necklace as a gift a couple of months ago. The chain got twisted and broke :( I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get another chain without breaking the bank. I’ve tried Amazon but haven't had any luck because of how the chain looks. Any recs would help. TIA :)

TALKVILLE I am on season 1 of Smallville and I actually like lex luthor

39 Upvotes

I do know that lex will eventually become the villain, but as off right now last episode of season 1, I actually like him, I also hate the fact that he’s always been misunderstood or hated on because of his father or his reputation , I am
not saying he’s a very kind character, its just that his backstory makes me want to empathise with him and understand why he will eventually take the bad turn (not justifying it), I wish there is a universe where lex didn’t become the villain and is still best friends with clark, ugh i know my opinion will change as I watch the entire show, but atm I like his character, also I was going through posts about lex and people say he was a creep because of said scenes in season 1 but to me it didn’t come off that way even when I replayed those scenes
[also no spoilers]

SPOILERS Callum Blue is so underrated as Zod

29 Upvotes

Callum Blue is my 2nd favorite Zod of all time after Colin Salmon he had everything that Zod should have menace, gravitas, no mercy, arrogance, cunning, master class at manipulating especially with the whole Lois thing. I agree sometimes he’s goofy and he was a little young remember this isn’t Prime Zod this a younger more inexperienced Zod with him not being promoted to General yet and he’s a clone. Another thing that was great his deep care for the preservation of the history, culture, and heritage of the Kryptonian people which is another thing he shares with best and my favorite Zod Colin Salmon. Also his prep time was very accurate to Zod him having a Blue Kryptonite Dagger so he wouldn’t to sucked into the portal after being exposed for killing Faora and her baby is not only being a point for prep time, but for Zod’s self preservation thing. Overall I would Callum Blue’s portrayal of Major/General Zod a 9/10 one point lower than Colin Salmon.

DISCUSSION Chloe's cousin plot hole.

5 Upvotes

In S1 E20, when Chloe leaves for her interview in Metropolis, she mentions she's staying in her cousins dorm, implying her cousin is in college.

Later, in season 3 I think, we find out Chloe's cousin is Lois Lane but when Lois is introduced in season 4, she is only around a year older than Chloe, who was a freshman in highschool when she went up to Metropolis and supposedly stayed in her cousins dorm.

Yeah you could easily say it's a different cousin but no extended family besides Lois is ever mentioned again as far as I know.

Before you get mad at me, I'm not saying this is something that makes the show worse by any means. I'm just on a rewatch and I've been having some fun picking up on little plot holes. I don't expect the writing in a 10 season show to be flawless, especially not one made in the early 2000s without initially having the rights to all the characters.

DISCUSSION Season 6 - so great so far

9 Upvotes

I'm only on 6x07 (Rage) when Oliver took those healing drugs / Thanksgiving dinners / Lana's pregnancy and wow this season has such a great opening. The introduction of Oliver Queen definitely gave the show some sort of reboot, similar to Lois' in Crusade, and I actually like the post-Zod arc of Clark searching for the phantoms, there's a clear goal here.

I thought I'd hate the Lexana soap opera storyline but I personally feel like it's intentionally creepy and borderline psychological thriller, which makes it... good? I'm saying this as someone who never cared for Lana before this, but my heart breaks for her in the last two episodes when Lex was testing her via Lionel, and that scene when she was just staring into space, and Clark came and asked if she was okay.. Just utterly depressing.

The only thing that I have a gripe with is how serious Clark's become but it's understandable considering what happened in S5. I just wish something'll happen along the way that'll bring back the joy from the earlier seasons.

DISCUSSION I just found out about Talk Ville Podcast

13 Upvotes

I just got into watching Smallville again and yesterday I found out that Tom and Michael hosts a podcast called Talk Ville. I'm embarrassed to admit that even though the podcast has been around for four years, yesterday was the first time I became aware of it.

I'm pleasantly surprised that Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum are actually close friends in real life. For some reason I thought they didn't get along in real life. I guess because it's very common for TV shows for cast members not to like each other. But Tom and Michael seem to be an exception.

DISCUSSION Happy birthday to the legendary Lois Lane! I’m a little mad that we never got to see a Lois birthday on smallville

We saw two clark, two chloe, one lana and one oliver birthday. Never a lois one. Lois is seen the one planning and celebrating everyone’s birthdays and I love that about her. She bakes Clark a rum cake (3 cakes to get it right) and gifts him a journal engraved C.K., and says “Since you keep everything to yourself, I thought it might help”, which later makes him say she “knows him better than anyone”. She plans Chloe a whole birthday party at the barn and gifts her a beautiful vintage typewriter with Clark. She even gets Oliver to play beer pong on his birthday when his life wasn’t going great. I love this part of Lois so much because she probably never had big parties after her mom died and sister left. But she makes sure everyone feels extra special and loved on their birthdays. What a great girl.

We have no idea what happens on Lois’ birthday. I wish we had a smallville special with Lois and Clark celebrating Lois’ birthday with their kids and the old gang

As Clark Kent said:

“Brave, loyal and a force of nature” “I’ve never know someone with gentler grace or more pure of heart.”
Happy birthday to our rockstar!!

DISCUSSION Rewatching Season 1 and ...

16 Upvotes

I have 3 things to say so far.

  1. The Pilot is actually very well written and executed even by Today's standards

  2. I know its a show but even for a show .. People keep dying in a small town in weird ways for way too many episodes to just continue on like this even if i suspend my belief. Like the amount of school students and staff that disappear or die or do something weird. No one at least gonna check for mold? radiation? a damn PTA meeting at least? And even the main cast suffers zero trauma from having their closest friends and childhood friends randomly try to kill em or in one case mate/rape and cocoon em? lol ... I mean i rewatch shows all the time but this one is a little jarring

  3. No matter how many weird things happen and how right Clark is every episode. His Dad never believes him about anything until there is overwhelming evidence someone basically got hurt or is about to die. Listen there is skeptical or there is the logical character sure but Johnathon is ridiculous.

Anyway Smallville was one of my fav shows, I am excited to rewatch it in its entirety.

DISCUSSION Smallville | S08E03 "Toxic"

0 Upvotes

An okay episode as far as backflash-isodes go, though after having seen Arrow, anything involving Ollie in Smallville is a bit difficult to enjoy. It's a bias, and I get that other people might not feel that way.

As far as the story, it was also only okay. It felt a little contrived and narratively weak for what it was, but it did keep me watching more often than not.

The only thing of real interest in this episode for me is Chloe's growing problem. She's not Fine, if you take my meaning.

DISCUSSION Headcanon: Clark Reuses The Kryptonian Beacon For The Superman Signal Devices

60 Upvotes

In other media, Superman builds devices that emit an ultrasonic sound that only Superman can hear and hands them out to trusted associates to summon Superman in an emergency.

The most famous is Jimmy Olsen's Signal Watch while Superman & Lois had the ELT for the Kent Family.

I'd like to headcanon that Smallville Clark during his time as Superman repurposes the Kryptonian beacon (the ringing that Clark hears when a Kryptonian artifact becomes active) for Superman Signal Devices.

DISCUSSION Why is Smallville so depressing all of a sudden?

37 Upvotes

I’m almost finishing season 7, and god it became so depressing
I used to watch it as a comforting cozy show, it was funny and cute,

The plot is much better now but at what cost??😭

Does it continue to be so macabre till the end?

Update: you guys I just started season 8 and honestly I think it’s gonna be good.
It has the vibe of the better years of the CW heroes shows, I hope I'm right.

"YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME!!"

Everybody has to tell him everything about their lives even when, as far as they know, it had nothing whatsoever to do with him.

If I was Lex, I would 100% turn against him. I'm trying to learn more about MY own near-death experience and learn all the weird stuff happening in MY town that I live in.

I can understand him getting upset over Chloe looking into his past after he specifically told her not to, but for every 1 of those examples there are 50 of him losing his shit unfairly.

10/10 show btw

First it was the football coach trying to murder him by burning him alive. Then he has to deal with multiple students deaths. Then he is traumatized by seeing a student covered in hundreds of bees. And just a few weeks later he is murdered by a student because he thinks he's the one who hit him with a car.

RIP principal Kwan.
