Why Lex cannot hate Clark on Smallville....
I have been watching Smallville and the one of the things I was thinking about was what happens when Lex goes bad. And while it will happen. I don't think he would hate Clark. If Lex really hated Clark. With one phone call he could destroy the Kents (ie-call in a loan, etc). I think a better way would be him becoming more distant and cold. He doesn't hate Clark. He just doesn't care about him.
Bring back John Doe! Or at least resolve the cliff-hanger with a 2hr movie or as an extra on a dvd release.

Oh, he can hate him but just not make his feelings know.
Intead he could pretend to be his friend and manipulate things in the background. That's part of Lex's emerging personality.
Believe me, I'm familiar with this strategy, as several women have practiced it on me.

- There\'s no such thing as \"normal\". The secret is to find someone that\'s screwed up in a way that seems \"normal\" to you.

In this retelling of Superman Who Knows but it's always Been Superman that Luthor has hated not Clark. In this version Lex suspects Clark of Hiding a secret and at some point he will become increasingly distant, and why do I get the feeling it may be over his emerging love Helen? Will Clark have to choose between saving her or Lana? And will Helen fall victim to this? Who knows but I sure love Smallville it's consistantly the best thing my tivo records.

Or you could accept the fact that the series was not created with a full understanding of the Superman history, thus opening up the opportunity for several major flaws.

Since they're creating their own Superman history here, I don't see how this coud be an issue.

I think Lex will grow further and further away from Clark, and may even resent Clark, when it comes time for Clark to do something and Clark chooses not to, or can't due for some unforeseen reason.
But here is a possible spoiler for season 3 regarding Lois Lane(Chloe's cousin)

I would'nt mind seeing Clark meet a younger Bruce Wayne, but I really don't see a need to have him meet the likes of Lois, Jimmy, or Mr. White. In fact meeting them now kinda cheapens meeting them later in his life. I think Chloe and Lana are enough for Clark to worry about for the time being.

Or it could be like Magneto and Prof. X... they know so much about each other that they live in a careful equilibrium of respect and hatred. They can't really attack each other directly, but they still try.

It would have been nice to have a travelling Bruce Wayne make his way to Smallville, but if I remember correctly, there were a bunch of legal issues that kept the future Dark Knight from making an appearance.
I don't think they should over do it in having familiar characters make appearances in Smallville. As much as I love | |
