Smallville Summer Hiatus Thread III (Spoilers)

I don't see what all the hub bub is about. It's not like a tiny flash is going to wreck the entire season. I know we're joking around here but sometimes our overreaction to stuff is ridiculous lol.

Lana just brings it out of people.

Well, unless NX pops up -since he seems otherwise MIA- I'll take on the Threads until he turns up. See you guys tomorrow night!

^ Uh the story has been confirmed by the show runners.

Uh, NEVER believe anything you read (particularly on the damned internet). Always wait to see it for real.

 

[Trekker4747]

Dammit. Now I got to prove that the speed of light really is 186,000mps myself. School is so worthless!

Plus how do you wreck something that's already collided with the side of a mountain going 500 mph?

TV Guide Magazine: I am preparing myself emotionally for when we finally see Clark in the suit.

‘Smallville’s’ Tom Welling knows what you’re thinking: ‘Why doesn’t he just put on the suit?’

Sept. 23, 2010 | 6:01 p.m.
Clark Kent is growing into the super man we all knew he could be as “Smallville” begins it’s 10th and final season on Friday. Jevon Phillips writes about the show and the actor who has portrayed Clark Kent longer than anyone else, Tom Welling.

Tom Welling’s first memory on the set of “Smallville” nine years ago was a chance meeting with a young production assistant named Chris Petry. The actor waved at Petry, who returned the greeting. Almost a decade later, Petry is all grown up and now serves as one of the show’s producers and occasionally directs. As for Welling, well, he is still almost Superman.
“The two of us were just sitting around the other day and going ‘Eh, not too bad. Not too bad for nine years. [We've] done all right,” said Welling, who is also an executive producer on the show and on the new CW program “Hellcats.”

The original vision for “Smallville,” which begins its 10th and final season Friday, was not to dazzle viewers so much with a red-and-blue-suited alien leaping tall buildings as it was to explore the early life of Clark Kent, explained the 33-year-old actor. That character study has been as successful as anyone on the show could have imagined a decade ago and now a generation of kids and young adults know Welling as the defining image of a capeless Superman.

The show’s creators, Al Gough and Miles Millar, embraced the opportunity to write a rich, new narrative for the iconic character’s journey to manhood.

“I know that sometimes we’ve done some things fans didn’t like — though other fans really appreciate — but we’ve just going our own path knowing that eventually he would become Superman,” said Welling, whose character still hasn’t leapt a building in a single bound.

But come on — 10 years of teasing fans with Clark’s maiden flight?

“Some people might be a little upset that it’s taken this long, but I think that we have to embrace the fact that if we’d done it in the first season, the show would be over,” said Welling. “The whole point was to try to elongate this journey or this transition that Clark has to becoming Superman.”

And you've been saying that for 10 years!

WOW

On a sidenote, got a question, how fast can Superman run? I know he isn't as fast as The Flash, but how fast can he superspeed on the ground?

 

[Admiral_Young]

Faster than a speeding bullet

 

[Guy Gardener]

Then there's sprint vs marathon, and really... I think he's getting faster.

Thanks for that little gem, Jet! See you tonight, hopefully.

Can't believe we've made it through another summer. The thread once again has served it's purpose and entertained us through the long dark! Now the question is what to do with it since the show will be starting tonight? Have a mod lock it? Continue it? Or let it die? LOL>

 

[Guy Gardener]

Some one needs to print it all out and then present it to Welling on bended Knee.

 

[Admiral_Young]

I nominate Jetfire for that when he comes back lol.

Brian and Kelly just can't stop talking about Smallville...another interview, this time from Newsarama. Seems we're going to get a mid-season cliffhanger again. They seriously must give the most interviews out of any show runner that I know...Ron Moore is the only other person I can think of who might come close, MAYBE Cooper and Wright from Stargate.
