the problem i have with the recent incarnations of Smallville and the Superman Saga…. is that they are depending too much on the buzzwords and catchphrases that make the Superman mythology.
Lois Lane, looking into the eyes of Dr.Fate, seeing her future… and turning around and telling Clark “I don’t know who i’m supposed to support… but it’s going to be someone representing a force of good, power, honor, kindness… a force for all to admire….” is all well and dandy… but…. when you look at the relationship of clark and Lois… there’s not much showing they have ANY KIND of chemistry whatsoever. there’s the “shyness” … but beyond that… there’s no reason to think that at any point in time…. they will be madly in love with each other… other than the crutch that the script demands it.
This goes across the board.
I feel the show has turned to simply following the comics’ outline of what SHOULD happen… and thus they go through the motions like blind zombies.
I have a feeling this is the last season of this series.
Too bad. I loved Smallville.
