the first two superman films are great.. I have a site on actress Sarah Douglas from Superman 2.. she played Ursa.. I do watch smallville and like the series very much.. MUCH better then the crap of lois and clark, since dean cain was no superman.. much less a terrible clark too.

Now WB should start a Batman Year One type show and have Batman/Superman crossover type shows.

How cool would that be?

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

Here's what I say...
Have Bruce Wayne have a similiar several episode run to Victoria's during Season 2. Then spin it off into "Gotham" for a mis-season replacement show. Have it cover the whole period before donning the cape and cowl, and perhaps a season or so as Batman.

 

[DougWright]

Good idea Adam, there could be a "bond" between Bruce and Lana over their shared loss in their past, that could throw a real loop in to smallville for a few shows. Surely Bruce and Lex could run in the same circles, this should be a gimme story line wise.
Would love to see a Dark Knight type of show, going over how Bruce becomes so brooding and yet develops his strength, intelligence and talents.
I smell a petition.
I just hope Smallville stays doing well and the people in charge would see there is a market to be tapped.

They do. That's why Birds of Prey is in pre-production under the same production company as Smallville.

I could definately see a Dark Knight spinoff of the smallville format. I would call the show "Knightrise"
Of course, they should make Bruce a couple of years older than Clark - maybe a year younger than Lex.
According to the Dark Knight mythology, Bruce Wayne actually travelled the world after college to learn and hone his skills. I could see each season, or several shows in each season, dealing with a specific story ark. For example, Bruce's travels to Tibet to learn meditation, healing and fighting skills from the tibetian monk.
The potential for these kinds of shows are mindblowing. It would attract both young (Dawson's creek, etc) audiences, as well as older audiences who grew up with the characters.
My only request is that WB keep both Smallville & any other similarly themed shows out of the realm of cheesiness a-la Lois & Clark.

My wife and I just finished watching the episode where the guys did the krypto tattoo's. Currently we really like Lex and dread when he starts turning bad. He has a great friendship with Clark in this series.

On another note, am I the only one who is getting sick of Lana? I know her and Clark can never be an item but she really does have a loser boyfriend that she is wasting her time on. Let's get Clark to the big city, leaving Lana to run the theater in Smallville, and have Clark fawning over a really hot Daily Planet reporter.

Frank, that's about 8 seasons away... :frowning:

 

[Frank Anderson]

On the up side... if it's 8 seasons away that means 9 seasons of Smallville
On the down side... it could go the way of the X-Files and turn crappy half way through :frowning:

 

[Adam Lenhardt]

Birds of Prey doesn't look that good... Gotham without Batman just isn't Gotham. A show about a paralysed Barbara Gordon, a bastard child of Batman and Catwoman, and a mysterious psychic girl getting therapy from a Dr. Harley Quinnzel just seems to depressing for me. Even by Batman standards.
I'll still watch, though

 

[DonWinzen]

To Frank Anderson: I am glad to see someone else besides my wife and I feeling the same way about Lana. I'd prefer to see Clark go with Chloe.

Also, does anyone notice that Lana constantly bobs her head up and down as she talks. I have noticed it for awhile and it is rather obnoxious.

I used to think she was cute but her ongoing loyalty to her boyfriend (think bad relationship) has lost my interest.

 

[Patrick Sun]

Smallville will last 4 years (the high school years), and then you have Clark doing his college years (Metropolis. U.?) for the next 4 years after that (maybe does it in 3 years), and then he goes away (Fortress of Solitude time) and comes back with the snazzy uniform and cape/boots. (Sometimes I pretend the Superboy TV series never ever happened).

I've always contended that Chloe is the prototypical female that Clark truly falls for, and when he meets Lois Lane, it's due to Chloe's influence on him in his high school years. I think Chloe will die, though, within the next 5 years.

 

[DonWinzen]

I think Chloe will die, though, within the next 5 years.

Patrick, with that last post, you must have Kryptonite in your veins :frowning:

 

[Patrick Sun]

But it was foreshadowed in this past episode when Clark wasn't there to save Chloe from harm. Again, Clark will be faced with not been able to save everyone he knows from harm, and it might even be event that gets him over the hump in terms of maturity going from adolescence to adulthood.

Remember, Chloe is a totally new character that's never seen the light of day in the comics themselves (AFAIK), she's "expendable" in that way. Don't get me wrong, I like Chloe more than Lana.

 

[Frank Anderson]

I like Chloe more than Lana.

You lie, you lie!!! You are just jealous some of us are not as receptive to Lana anymore. With her bobbing head (she thinks she is cute) and her insufferable loyalty to her loser boyfriend and her beautiful eyes, hair and... um.... she's not all that you know.

 

[DougWright]

umm.

Am I reading this right? Lana is not cute?

ok I am off to get my eyes checked because she definitely does it for me.

She has cute down pat.

my $0.02

 

[DonWinzen]

Doug, I think that Frank would agree with me that Lana is physically cute but she has been trying to hard to "be" cute whereas Chloe is simply cute. No one can deny the actress playing Lana is very attractive. It is an observation that she is becoming tiresome with her act and her persistent loyalty to a guy that doesn't deserve it, namely Whitney.

But Doug do not hold yourself back from being a Lana fan. I will stick with Chloe for now (unless she starts to bob her head a lot when she speaks). LOL

 

[Frank Anderson]

Doug,

I was trying to be sarcastic and rag on Patrick some. The girl who plays Lana is an extremly beautiful young lady. I am just starting to get sick of how her character is acting. I was really pissed a couple of weeks ago when her and Clark had their first disagreement... and of course she was wrong but did not trust her friend Clark enough to see it. She stuck with her jerkoff boyfriend.

 

[Dave Scarpa]

Well Frank that's alot like life woman always stay with the guys who treat them like dirt

 

[Mark Wolverton]

Dave, Here, here! What is it about women and bad guys. Do they think they can save them or, change them or something. I mean, I see Lana in a trailor park with torn clothes and a black eye from a passed out Whitney after a drunken stuper. Where is Superman then? Metroplis? Poor Lana. Stuck in a loser relationship. But, won't she get exactly what she deserves?

I'm sorry am I too sinical?
