This.

It pretty much is going to be that way I figure. The final shot is of Clark donning the Superman costume and Cape and flying for the first time as Superman.

Will they rename the show "Justice League"? Are they even in Smallville anymore?

They keep the name Smallville because less intelligent people will become confused and stop watching the show.

Those of us with message board capable skills are not so easily confused.

Though very easily entertained.

We now finally have episode titles for the final two episodes of season nine:


Episode #9.21: "Hostage" (episode with Martha Kent and Perry White)
Episode #9.22: "Salvation" (season finale)


I'm certainly intrigued by the title of the season finale. I really hope the episode doesn't bomb like Doomsday did last year.

It is ridiculous that Clark is in his early 30s and can't fly. :lol

As long as he hovers people will be happy since they've teased for so long. Hell, people were blown away the firr time they saw the costume at ComicCon and it's just a black shirt and trenchcoat. :lol

Clark is at most 23 years old. The show started when he was a freshman in high school.

The actor is in his early 30's. The character is in his early 20's.

I know he is still in his 20s on the show (it's called exaggeration) but it's still ridiculous. If he is working full-time at the Planet and not going to school, fought Zod, Brainiac, Doomsday etc a handful of times he should be fucking flying. If they want to stick with the whole "it's a show about Clark not Superman" thing they should not be bringing in main villains, or at the very least just start calling the show Metropolis and have him fly.

Fuck, by the time the show ends Clark very well good be 30.

*shrug*

I've always looked at it as Ultimate Superman. If it were the DC Universe, it would simply be another Earth where everything happened differently.

I loved at one point it was a reluctant late move to move Clark from highschool to College because he looked too old to be in highschool :lol

You know I had an idea a few years ago that since they were no longer in Smallville to just call Smallville 'Metropolis'.

Season 10 is going to require flight, or THE costume - really both.

The moment he flies is when he'll truly become Superman and that's not happening until the series finale.

I'm just hoping for a better costume. Something red and blue isn't too much to ask.

They've teased us with it long enough, to abandon it and go in a completely different direction... the real secret is Clark discovers he wants to be Batman (thus all the black he's wearing now and standing on rooftops) :lol

Hrm...the best news in all of this is that Greg Beeman is directing the S9 finale. He, along with James Marshall, were easily the two best directors the show ever had and really established the visual tone of the series. Beeman left after S5 to work on Heroes, which he was fired from last year. He also directed the best episode in the series (Smallville), the S3 premiere "Exile". Having him directing Smallville again is more exciting than the S10 renewal for me.

What do you mean? He DID look too old but that's not why they moved him to high school. Every season, 1-4, was a year of high school. 1 was his freshman year and 4 was his senior year.

I forgot to post what I even came into the thread to post in the first place.

JSA is returning this season!

Geoff Johns appeared at the Emerald City Comic-Con in Seattle this weekend, and among other things he had this to say:

"They do appear again at the end of season on 'Smallville.' The hope is for every DC character to appear outside the comic book. Correctly."

You misunderstood my quote. I wasn't laughing because it was absurd to take him out of highschool, I was laughing because it was very obvious he was too old to be in highschool.

so if they are wanting to have every DC hero appear, i wonder if we will get wonder woman? we already had super girl, jsa/jla, im just wondering what other "big" hero that could show up. obviously not batman. plus the quote did say "correctly", so who could show up and fit in the smallville universe?

Well he didn't say on Smallville specifically. Now that he's DC Guru to Hollywood, there will be many possibilities.

DAMN DAMN DAMN

According to Michael's Twitter account:

Lots of good news coming soon. I have to shut up until I'm allowed to say something. Patience young jedi's.

Sorry. It's not Smallville related. I've already stated that I'm not returning. I'd never lead you guys on like that. I appreciate your support.

So lame that he won't return. If this next big thing doesn't do wonders for his career, I would hope he stops being stubborn about it.

If he doesn't at least go back for the final episode or two, that will suck.

probably because his final seasons were embarrassingly bad

maybe he hasnt bothered to watch this season and see how much it's improved

Lex had became so stale you can't be shocked he isn't willing to come back, regardless of the way his career is going. And since Lex was stale, I have a hard time being upset with his decision.
