'Smallville's' Clark Kent: To Fly or Not To Fly? - Page 6

Well, thanks Batfan, I was gonna ask him to do just that. Well, anonymous, hope you join the fight, however, I agree with Batfan, you might not stand a chance, because it's 4 Lana-haters against 1 Lana-worshipper right now.

Yeah he's not doing too good. Hey kisha I think they're letting him out of intensive care next week.

Weeellllll, since that Clark/Lana thing is beating a dead horse...

about the flight thing and why Kara can fly and Clark can't.

Kryption has stronger gravity, Kara was the same age she is now as she was then. Clark/Kal-El was a baby, he's only known earth's gravity.

Kara was "imbedded trained" during her flight to earth about what abilities she would have. She spent 18 years of her life on a high gravity planet, then she wakes up from suspended-animation on a planet with a lot less gravity than what she's used to and was told by Zor-El about it before hand... good enough for me.

Then again I am going off the comics and how much the writers use from the comics... storyline wise for origins and devolopment.

For instance, if no one saw the whole Kara being a threat thing turning into a storyline... that storyline was done after crisis infinate earth, lol

Batfan114 · 10-19-2007, 01:51 PM

Yes it was but don't forget Smallville is using the Kara from before crisis infinite and in that storyline she dies. Then comes the one you are talking about eradicator kon-el. But Sv never really followed the story lines. They just used them as guide lines, to make their own story. So they might be combining story lines. But think about this if kara was to be a one time bad guy for this season then why is she in the credits as a regular? I can understand lex because he's superman's all time arch nemesis so he would have a permanent role. But not Kara. either way I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Some of the comments relating to Lana are almost laughable

"Its one Lana fan against 4 Lana haters"

"Lana is evil" lol. Are you all school girls?

This online hatred for Lana which has been wide and going on for a long time (although considering its the internet, I wouldnt take too much stock in it).
Granted some of the poor writing for the character doesnt help, but it never been to the point where its totall grating. Part of that flaw is that the writers as a whole dont construct the show very well and Chloe and Lois (especially) are equally poorly written and just as grating (The awful WWE episode last season for instance).
I imagine the girls and comic book fans want more of Superman and can relate to a chloe more than a Lana. But its pretty obvious by now that the Clana aspect is not holding this show back or making Clark Superman. Its the producers. The fact that they bring in Lois and Supergirl randomly and out of sync in the timeline do just as much damage on the qual

To all Lana Lang haters - get over yourselves and enjoy the show.

And to all the Lana Lang Worshippers - get a clue!!! We're not done yet!! And we're here to stay!! Just because you don't see the devious 'oh I'm a Goddess that's not capable of doing anything wrong' nature behind those 'oh so beautiful sparkling gazing eyes' doesn't mean the rest of us don't. We see it. CLEARLY. And we're not gonna just sit by and accept the writers flaws in how they want us to identify with her horribly written character. No!! We're gonna express our dismay with these flaws by bashing their 'Beautiful Silver-winged Angel'. Because for some reason the writers expect us to accept all that she has done under the 'it wasn't her fault' or 'someone made her do it' notion.

kishagirl92 · 10-20-2007, 01:19 PM

And we're looking forward to seeing how they are gonna keep up this Pink Princess portrayal of her, especially with all of her highness' upcoming 'Dark Angel' acts.

Oh, but, don't get it twisted, we enjoy the show very, very much. But we also enjoy expressing our feelings about the Queen Bee even more. Love Smallville, as long as they don't try to get rid of Chloe. Absolutely love Chloe!!

But still I do watch to see Clark's journey to superman, even though they sometimes gear off point and put the center spotlight on the Beauty Queen. But overall, still enjoy watching the show!!

Survivngthetimes: First of the WHOLE point of watching a show and ENJOYING involves LIKING/DISLIKING the characters-- so you actually lost me on the whole "it's the producers fault" etc... Yes, it is the writers/producers fault for writing the characters badly, but the point of the matter is we are NOT watching the producers, we are watching THE CHARACTERS. So as much as I give minuses and negatives, and remove props to the producers/writers for writing the characters badly, I can't hate them, I don't know them. But we know the characters, we've seen them from the time the show started, and I think given that we've invested our time in the show, kept the ratings up, I think we are granted to hate some characters. I don't know whether you've ever gone to a movie with a villain and a good guy and came out loving both of them-- you either love the villain, and hate the good giy, or vice-versa. Has nothing to do with the ACTORS themselves. So yes, Chloe and Lois are also written poorly (th
