Is he still in that disconnected cage without a toilet in the middle of a big room?

All in all, it could've been so much more. Then again, so too, could the entire season.

So could the whole show, heck it could be mythos and classic Superman heavy as Superman: Doomsday, but the show wouldn't have lasted 3 seasons, let alone 10

Good point.

He doesn't want to be branded as superman, but he'll let himself be branded as a marvel character...

Gave the finale a Clark Kent too

Really unsatisfying finale

-One hour of wasted potential

-Darkseid's minions taken out by just some arrows

-Darkseid's defeat

-Apokolips just being pushed away. Not a single troop from Darkseid's army? I guess them flying would have been too much

-CGI superman

-Last minute retcon of Lex and all his memories. But Lex has lost his memories in the past and somehow regained a shred of it.

Poor bastard probably really has to take a dump by now.

You realize, no one called him Superman but Chloe when reading the comic?

LOL.

I'm afraid my jokes weren't as good as usual tonight. Probably because I was more annoyed than anything.

It would have been funny if CGI Superman had thrown the planet and it was announced that he saved Earth but destroyed Vulcan in the process...

Photoman15 · May 14 2011, 03:28 AM

Think everything but Clark was CGI and with the lighting it made him look CGI too, but not sure.

At least it was fun participating in the final commentary thread.

That it was. It has been an extreme pleasure doing these commentaries with you guys for the past five years. It's given me a lot of pleasure, and it's going to seem strange not to see you all again next September.

Then again, we may turn this into the Never-Ending Smallville Thread, so who knows!

So Superman saves a crashing airplane which happens to have Lois aboard, and then saves the planet by throwing a giant hunk of rock away from it.

These writers are brilliant! Why didn't Warner Bros. hire them to do the new movie?

Maybe he hit Nero's ship instead.

Wait...can someone explain the comic book? I mean it would make sense if it were called Superman...but it was called Smallville. Plus...why didn't Oliver get to be in that final scene with Chloe?

Why is there a comic about Clark's life? His secret doesn't appear to be out. Or was there some sort of framing narrative I missed that place Chloe and her son outside of continuity?

I had a problem with that as well... It was like real-life intruding on the narrative. I mean, how in the name of hell can you have a comic book about him revealing who Supes is if no one is supposed to know that Clark is Supes?

The scene was cute... It just didn't make any sense.

That's why I asked the question. If the comic had just been called Superman you could just chalk it up to DC comics merely speculating about Superman's life (in the comics they actually made a movie at one point). The fact that it was called Smallville suggests that the real story was being told. Of course...what could have happened is that Chloe works for DC as a writer and wrote her own version of events and changed the names to protect the innocent.

I'm still chuckling over her line about seeing him in the funny pages.
