Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine Smallville ... MAJOR SPOILERS

*Sigh* more of the same "model-turned-actor" jazz...why not have an actor-turned-even-better-actor? :rolleyes:

has no one been watching season 5, since it's return to US tv last week ???

i've noticed there are new titles from www.kryptonsite.com !!!

and some cool stills from upcoming episodes, can't wait for this to in January in the UK !!! so who's watching it over there ......

Matthew.

It conflicts with Survivor this season.

I'll wait until Survivor wraps up (since it doesn't repeat), and then catch up on Smallville in reruns...

It was a fantastic season opener, kryptonian super villans and all, DICIPLES OF ZOD!!!
The fortress of solitude, but the second episode was a bit boring.

So what'd y'all think of Aquaman?? Yeah, the "bro" stuff was a little grating, but it was a cool episode -- especially seeing them square off against one another in the water. Also, Lois and "AC" gettin' cozy! I sense tension in future JLA meetings (and no, I don't mean "Junior Lifeguard Association"). Cool that they mentioned the Flash as well.

Interestingly enough, on Boomerang later tonight they showed an old episode of Aquaman where he uses that "water punch" thing he did on "Smallville". Does anyone know if he does this in the comics, or were they referencing the cartoon??

Oh, and I'm glad they've finally gotten the Brainiac story underway. It took a few seconds to get used to "Spike" speaking without the fake Brit accent, but this should be interesting.

I'm not a big Aquaman guy but I never remember a "water punch". Is it the tsunami left hook? Sounds cool for a video game.

Aquaman is such a surfer pothead! I mean I'm from California and use my fair share of "dude" and "sweet" but Smallville "AC" sounds like be belongs in the O.C.! I did like the humor and hinting at the future.

I enjoyed last night's episode, but this guy has got to be the worst actor they've ever hired for a guest shot. All his dialogue with Lois, especially, sounded so stilted. It actually spoiled it a bit for me.

For some reason, I was thinking James Marsters was from Australia, but IMDB says he's not. I liked him, but I just got the distinct impression in a few sequences that he was fighting a losing battle against his accent. Maybe he's had trouble losing it since "Angel" got cancelled.

I think for the series finale, Clark needs to follow Lex to Gotham to foil a scheme. There, he'll meet a young Bruce Wayne, maybe as he's just starting his training, and a beautiful raven-haired girl named Diana, daughter of the Themiscyrian queen in the U.S. on a state visit. (The queen of Themiscyra was mentioned in a newspaper headline a couple seasons ago.)

And that would be the only thing that could get me to watch this show again. I stopped watching 2 years ago, especially when they put it up against 24. Got tired of the kryptonite villain of the week and bad acting of the guest stars.

I liked last night's episode - and I liked the take on a young Aquaman. Besides mentioning the JLA and the Flash, Aquaman also called Clark, "Superboy." How long before we have visit from a trio from the future? Then the mythos will be complete.

I liked the season opener well enough, but the next two episodes kind of annoyed me. I absolutely hate Clark with Lana. She is just so wimpy/whiny in this series. And I'm sorry, but shacking up in your parents' house while they are home is just tacky.

I have my fingers crossed that Jor-El will take Lana's lifeforce as payment for restoring Clark's, but my guess is Chloe (since Clark has no love for Lionel, and I would expect the main future characters (Martha, Jonathon, Lois, Lex and probably Lana) are safe enough.

I haven't watched this week's episode yet, but if Lana is still a main focus, then I won't get my hopes up

No, actually, Lois is the love interest in this week's episode - the love interest of Auqaman, that is. It's interesting to see Clark's interest in Lois slowly building.

I'm sorry, but after Clark sprayed Arthur with the water, causing him to start heaving his enormous pecs and to begin moaning and braething deeply, the ONLY thing I could think of was that the dripping-wet glistening Aquaboy was all lubed up and ready to go.

HoYAY!!!

Again, my apologies.

Well, we all thought THAT, silly.

What, you're saying that 3 mysterious teenagers
dropping in who know all about Clark's super
powers wouldn't pique your interest enough to
watch the show again?

I figured I had more a chance of Bruce showing up than Garth, Imra and Rokk. Of course the way Garth gets treated it'll be Reep, Imra and Rokk like in the animated version. I swear, sometimes I think Garth is the Rodney Dangerfield of the team.

I think that however slim the chances of the
Legion show up are, it's still better than
the odds of seeing a young Bruce Wayne. Given
how often there have been at least two
electro-mutants on Smallville, I'd say that
Garth has a pretty good shot at making the
cut this time if the Legion did show up.

I just read an interview with one of the producers of "Smallville" (don't remember where) and he said there's no chance of Bruce showing up now that "Batman Begins" has revitalized the franchise.

The vampire episode was cute if only for the nods to Buffy -- Brainiac (Spike) saying there's no such thing as vampires and the "slaying Buffy the vampire" line but otherwise it was kinda the same old, meteor freak targets Lana, she goes evil then Clark saves her. I read that a future episode will involve Clark becoming paranoid and (big shock) acting out of character again. They need to stop all those episodes of the various characters "turning bad". It's as overdone as the Meteor Freak of the Week device.

The subplot with Brainiac ("T2") is shaping up nicely though.

You know, I had absolutely no interest in this episode besides the Brainaic storyline.

I mean, what the Hell is up with Lana? She was on her own in the last year of high school, lived alone in Europe for a few months and she decides she needs to pledge to a sorority of rich girls?

WTF?

Jamie

It's all a cover. She's actually an undercover officer from 21 Jump Street.

That commercial within a show for Lois' car was ridiculous. To "distract" the guard, she basically does a whole sales pitch to the audience about how great the car is. It strained credibility more than a little that the guard thought her dinky Ford was so cool.

Another big DC guest star scheduled for February sweeps. Want to know who? You'll have to read the Titans forum !

Well, since it looks like no one saw the announcment of Cyborg in the Titans forum I thought I'd post this here too:

Lee Thompson Young as been cast as Victor Stone. You can find a pic of him here . Cyborg will be episode #15 for this season.

i checked it out, its good to have more dc characters in the show. But i dont think cyborg should be the character they use, aquaman and flash made sense, but a teen titan? If they are going to use a teen why not a legionairre? Isnt cyborg a teen when superman is an adult.
