I voted that I hated / didn't like it. It was just too much, given that Lana will be gone in two episodes. Despite all the hate-Lana chatter in some threads, though, Lana's showed a pretty good perspective on the situation. It's Clark that could use a jolt back into the present. It was an unwelcome diversion by Clark during an otherwise high-speed trajectory toward Superman. The writers could have done so much better with KK back for a few episodes. I'm still hoping that they tie this up decently.

As far as kisses are concerned, it wouldn't rank that high on my list. There was no spark and the chemistry just wasn't there. I have the theory that this was done and purpose and will be explained in the next episode. Otherwise the sort of "cliffhanger" ending just doesn't make sense.
There was something strange in Clark's eyes, confusion most likely, and I know it will be addressed in Power.

Oh, how I would love to be Clark sometimes. :lol:

I expected Clark to do something like this. He's never really given up on Lana. He was just forced to let go. If he was ever going to move on from Lana he had to consider this option of having a relationship with Lana and still try to be the person the world needs.
I just hope I will finally really move on and not be forced to do so.

I think the confusion on Clarks' part after the kiss is that he realized that the girl is not that into him now.

I think the confusion is that Clark knows Lana's into him - more than ever now that she knows his secret and that he is stepping up like never before - but she is not going to stay.

I'm hoping the confusion after the kiss means that he realizes he's not that into the girl anymore. The chemistry is gone. This is where he really wakes up to the fact that his heart now lies elsewhere.

I agree. I think he's realizing that so much has happened that it's impossible for things to be like they were 6 or 7 years ago and having realized that he also has feelings for Lois is why the confusion exists. It will lead him to telling her (hopefully) they'll be friends forever but nothing more.

Good point. It's not that I hate Lana, but I hate to see a regressed Clark.
Clark seems to regress most when Lana is in his life. When Lana left town with no forwarding address or cell phone number, and Clark worked side by side with Lois everyday, we saw him really step it up.
I'm not saying Lois caused that. It was all Clark. But, Lois somehow brings out the best in him, or at least, does not bring him down.

I agree with that, too. This would have been a nice Clana arc for season 7. It just would not have involved Clark being all dashing in his shirt and tie, turning heads, and being the man Lana always knew he would be. Anybody could fall in love with that.
What about when he was depressed and wanted to stay on the farm instead of taking out Lex and being a superhero for the whole world? What about that Clark, Lana? Were you that into him, then? Or did Bizarro do it for you more? I think Lana knows the answer to that question and that is why she will be leaving in two weeks.
Despite the sexual chemistry, these two simply do not bring out the best in each other. Lana was right: once she left him, Clark became Metropolis' hero (and the world's since he keeps saving it from annihilation by aliens).

In what way did he regress exactly? :confused:
He was being very proactive throughout the episode and most importantkly, stood by his opinion on how to solve the cop problem.

That is the thing. I agree with you, I think some of us see Clark as a strong person in Bulletproof even if Lana is there and some others see him as a regressing Clark because of her.
What is interesting is how we can watch the same show and not feel the same things...As WickedJenn says that is why all opinions are good to read:)

It seemed to lack the passion I've seen during times the have kissed in prior seasons, but that may be part of the overall plan for the next couple of weeks. It was in context with her coming back and was relevant to Clark's struggle with the idea of merging his desitny with a relationship. It also makes sense that if KK is leaving then to have some closure. I am glad it will not end with the Dear John DVD

I'm thinking of those final minutes of the episode when he said, "For a year I've been sacrificing my own desires for the world. What if the rest of the world didn't have to come first" or something like that and then they kiss.
I thought to myself, that is what season 7 was for. Lana "died" and then came back to the farm. The two played house together, did not commit to a lifetime together in marriage, never made out or had sex (except once in Wrath), Lana kept twisted secrets from him, and they were generally miserable.
After all we've seen from Odyssey to the first 55 minutes of Bulletproof, why would Clark even go there?
We got to see it not work for them during their highschool crush because he kept secrets from her. Then we saw her with Lex and how it destroyed Clark. Then we saw them together in season 7 knowing the secret but there was no passion and Lana kept secrets from him and they still didn't believe in their relationship enough to get married. Then in Bride he tells Lana that things may have worked for them if he erased her memory of his secret like he did Chloe, forgetting the first six seasons of Smallville when Lana did not know the secret.
No matter how they come at this relationship, it never works. They are better apart than together and they need to accept that. I think Lana has, more than Clark has. That is where I see the "regression."
Without Lana, he has swagger, he has cajones, he is focused and purposeful and heroic. With Lana, he is entertaining the idea of getting back together despite seven and half years of evidence that they are not meant to be together despite intense sexual attraction.

The kiss was weird. Lana didn't seem into it at first and Clark looked hesitant. At least he opened his mouth in this one, something that didn't happen in any of their kisses during S7, but still. For a couple that lived together several months and is finally reuniting after a long separation, I would have expected more passion. Then they pulled back with blank expressions. Clark frowns, Lana stares. Something is not right there. At least IMO.

In real life, what would you think of a guy who still moons over his highschool sweetheart, four years after graduation, three years after they broke up, and two years after she married someone else? A real loser, right?
Remember Brendon Nash, the guy in "Forever" who wanted to stay in high school for the rest of his life? That's the kind of guy who says things like, "If I squint just right, it's like we're fourteen again."
Grownups don't want to be fourteen again. They want to get on with their adult lives, not revisit their childhood. Clark should not have wanted to kiss Lana again.

But you see... that's the point. Old comics or new comics... Clark/Superman has never pined for Lana. It has always been the contrary, as you've said.
I hated the kiss. I wouldn't have hated it if it weren't for Clark's previous "back to 14" line. That's not my kind of Superman.
I understand that Clark needs closure but I still didn't like that scene. Maybe that wierd look on Clark's face at the end is because he pictured Lois instead of Lana in front of him when he opened his eyes.:p

but it can be a kind of nostalgia, no ? In life, when you have to make big decisions, sometimes you look back to be reassured (it is like with the children, they make some regression after they made a big progress because they have many things to "digest").
After your nostalgia crisis, you are able to "grow up" with your decisions. I think it is the case for Clark. Even if he will be Superman, he is a man with his doubts, his questioning,...
Maybe it is harder for him because he knows his decisions will have many consequences for the world and not just for him. He has to be sure he chooses the good one as a partner

Sure, but the thing is this relationship hasn't had an ending where both Clark and Lana was in agreement that they should break up. That is the final stage they both must go through, to able to move on and recognize that things can never work between them.
-
Clark had swagger, cajones, he was focused, purposeful and heroic in both Legion and Bulletproof - So your argument doesn't make any sense yet again.
The only way he regressed (in your opinion) is romantically.
Clark did not say "screw the world, I only wanna be with you". After his conversation with the cop (Danny?) he simply thought to himself that maybe it doesn't have to be all or nothing, maybe Lana and I can do this.
The remaining episodes wil show that they can't - which is one of the reasons they don't end up together. That's the way the story goes. We know that already, but it has to be shown on-screen.

I hope Lana will be out of the picture soon and moving on with her own future that Emery was talking about.

I honestly don't know how I felt about the kiss. I'm an original Clana fan but Clois has grown on me so much in the last couple seasons. And I know that after her 5 episodes, Lana's gone for good. So, I guess knowing that.. it kinda made me feel like Lana is just using Clark for whatever her friggin' secret texts are about. I dunno. I guess we'll see. :/

Not b/c it was "Clana" kiss but it felt and looked odd in my eyes.
The magic was gone. There wasn't anything there. No longing, No passion, No need, No want.
Clark please realize your feelings for Lana in basic on a concept an image that you no longer see or feel.
Clark need to be confused over this kiss.
It wasn't the same Clana kiss we have seen in the past I can tell you that.

As a graduate of study at the Clana Kiss Academy......that was one of their BEST kisses!
And yes,......we have a lot of Clana kisses to analyze over the years to compare. Trust me, Clanas, have looked at each and every Clark and Lana kiss many times over and we know each and every nuance. I am sure a Clana could tell you their top 5 or 10 by heart.

I felt this clinching feeling around my heart. Like a fist was clenching it. Then I felt like someone had kicked me in the neck. Then I let out a resigned sigh and nodded to myself because at least this time the ressurgence of Clark's Lana obsession was well written. Clearly he's 14 again. He get's off on the idea, Lana doesn't. He's trying to pretend that his relationship with Lana didn't work because he was trying to choose between Lana and heroism. Blah blah blah. After thinking all these things through I felt happy for the Clana fans and thought that the lighting was good. I thought about Clana as a whole and hoped it would be a good ending for the Clana fans. Well as good an ending as possible without making me want to gouge out my eyes. Then I thought it was kinda sweet.

I think this is the right place for these caps. Enjoy people!
I thought the Clana kiss was hot.
Let me refresh your memory with lightened caps.

And these last two are right after the kiss. Clark doesn't look confused at all. Looking straight at Lana.

I was cringing when that scene took place. It was just a big step back and the chemistry was lacking IMO. It seemed forced after they don't seem like they have anything in common anymore.

I voted Whatever cause the other two options seemed very unfit to how I felt about it, I thought it was weird, I didnt hate it cause there was nothing to hate, it was an empty kiss, I saw no passion no nothing, even some awkward moves on both parts that made it look weird.

I like nostalgia. I agree that Clark has the right to have doubts, to have ideals, dreams, etc.
But after 8 years? I just think it's too much time.
I was rewatching Superman Returns these days... and... that Clark... when he was even younger that S1 Clark had the courage, the curiosity to try his powers. As an adult he had the strenght to fight for his ideals, to deal with pain and loneliness.
I don't like Clana... but like I said, I would have had no problem with the kiss if it weren't for that line.
You are right too:)The thing is OUR Clark in SV is slowwwww (sighs), we have to do with it;)
I just want to add, can't tell you about Superman returns, I find this movie is a complete disaster. That is the only thing I can remember about it:(:p

The first time I saw this, I thought to myself this was very different from what I've seen in the past. From my observation I didn't see any passion behind it, and the camera angle confirmed this as it didn't zoom in on their faces to show loving looks or zoom out to insinuate that they could not pull away from each other.
Now, after rewatching this, it is Clark that pulls away while Lana is still nuzzling his nose/face. Lacking is the passionate, strong embrace we've seen in the past with these two characters.
More profound is as Clark is pulling away, his eyebrows briefly frown as if to suggest puzzlement and confusion. I didn't see any lovey dovey type look, so TBH this kiss actually made me feel that this is the beginning of Clark moving on.
I feel pretty good about it after rewatching the scene and looking into the meaning behind it for the development of Clark's character.:D

Michèle, it is exactly what I think. No passion anymore, Clark is almost ready to have the answer of his love for Lana:D

01-27-2009, 09:07 AM
Yes, Karine. I've been saying the same thing since the episode aired, but what I didn't notice until watching it again was that Clark was the one to pull away and briefly frown. It's definitely nice to finally see them begin to move on. I'm curious to what Power will bring about in relation to their relationship.

Exactly. It was strange. With all the kisses they've had before, none of them felt or looked as weird as that one. Well, for one thing, Clark didn't give Lana his usual 'googly-eyed look of love' afterward. So, there was something definitely off there.
And, like I said before, it was bittersweet. It seemed like an honest attempt at recapturing the love they once shared. But, by the look on their faces, that's not what they found. To me, it felt like the beginning of the end.
I voted for whatever. It's mainly because I'm so over the clana drama I don't even get annoyed at it anymore and after 7 years of the revolving clana door I refused to ship clois so I wouldn't get hurt like I did when I shipped chlark, hence my new carefree attitude to the trainwreck that is Clark's lovelife.

ITA. Actually, it made me have faith in the writers. I thought the camera angle was brilliant. I hope we see Clark talk a little about this with Chloe in the upcoming episodes.

Lame, this ep took a million steps backward. I am sick of them bringing CK so far along and then having him regress in the span of 2 seconds of looking at Lana.

01-28-2009, 05:44 PM
Meh... it didn't exactly set the screen alight.
As for their relationship? Done to death. I figure it's not leading anywhere, so why bother? The only potential good I see coming from this story line is some red-hot Lois jealousy!

Yeah, I think you're right. It's like, Clark is lonely enough that he wanted to try to see if he and Lana could still have something (and as much as I HATE the clana ship, I guess from Clark's POV it did end rather abruptly last season)...and then he seemed to start to realize that he and Lana just don't have the passion for each other. I think over the next couple episodes, we WILL see Clark finally realize that Lana is not the right girl for him.

Though I enjoyed their relationship at the beginning, I preferred Lois once she arrived on the scene. The kiss wasn't necessary, IMO and something told me to check the boards immediately to read about the reactions. Sure enough, I was proven right when I saw how many other fans were upset by it. Yes, I know there are fans who did enjoy it, but I certainly wasn't one of them. I think by now we all know the reason, why beat a dead horse to death! I'm looking forward to the grownup relationship of Clark and Lois. Clana is yesterday's news. Surely the writers already knew this, yet chose to upset what seems to be the majority of fans. Perhaps they will let us know why in tonight's episode!

*Slam*
Clark slams Lois into the door. I thought Chloe's intervention was honest and heart felt- but come on, Lana is Clark's Kryptonite. He just can't resist her - or kissing her. Chloe (in past seasons) and Lois now be darned.
Personally, the man of Steel should look into *not* nearly kissing and sweetly dancing with women and then running off to Lana the first second she enters his brain.

Well, I liked the Clark/Lana relationship and I'm glad it got a decent send off. But I do believe that by the time Clark and Lois were getting ready to be married, she was the only one in his heart.
Lois4Kent
09-14-2011, 05:39 PM
Definitely hated it. I consider it a major screw up by the writer's though, not by Clark. It was a major "WTH?" moment for most of the audience I think. Seemed like the whole thing came out of nowhere and was completely pointless. Didn't feel at all like it fit in with where Clark was at that time, and as far as I can see it was all just to have Kristen back. I think Brian and Kelly did a good job of undoing the damage in "Homecoming" though.

They had a send off over and over again. I never liked Clana,it made Clark too mopey. I liked Lana and Jason though he wasn't always looking
at her like she walked on water or something.. Oh well, such is life...:lol:

Guess we'll have to agree to disagree. Where you saw send off after send off, I saw prematurely aborted storylines due to "secrets & lies" or "physical impairment." Clark made himself mopey in his relationship (or lack thereof) with Lana, but this ground has been rehashed ad nauseum already. As for Jason, he came into Lana's life with ulterior motives. He may not have looked at her as if she walked on water, but he did look at her as an "end" to a goal.

To think that Clark and Lana's story was resolved at the end of Season 7 is simply not reasonable IMO. Kristen was brought back to wrap things up. Clark and Lana did not end because they were not in love, they ended because it was physically impossible for them to be around each other. I guess that's the thing that bugs hell out of clois fans. I'm of the opinion that it makes no difference how or why they ended as long as they did so that the revered Clark & Lois relationship could bloom. There was no damage to undue in Homecoming. Clark moved on with his life as everyone knew he eventually would. And on a side note: I guess this is why Superman is not my favorite superhero, I like Batman much better. Batman doesn't come with built-in baggage (i.e. love relationship); I can really do without love interests in this genre, especially to the extent of Clark and Lois's.

I guess you can see it that way too. The way I see it, Lana was the biggest failure of a character on the show. She basically ruined all her remaining chances with Clark (if there were any) by putting the suit on herself and playing for Lex Luthor's revenge. She was basically forgotten by everyone, including Clark, already in the next episode after Requiem and was barely mentioned at all after that. But I guess they went for a full circle; Clark was on the ground from kryptonite at their first and also at their last meeting. What goes around comes around, or how is the saying. :lol:

I was going to ignore this post, but...I...can't. :D

I will agree that by donning the Prometheus suit, Lana doomed her relationship with Clark. But her reasons for deciding to wear it had nothing to do with revenge on Lex. And she had no way of knowing the suit was a weapon.
She was basically forgotten by everyone, including Clark, already in the next episode after Requiem and was barely mentioned at all after that.
If Lana had been mentioned every episode until SV's swan song the b*tching and cauterwauling would have been deafening. That said, Lana was mentioned the very next episode by Clark and Chloe. I know it makes some people feel good to think Lana was exorcised from Clark's heart when Lois wormed her way in, but first loves are always remembered fondly.
