You don't need to petition. She is gone next week, for good.

They could have done so much good with Lana's return. They could have cemented their friendship and redeemed her character. Instead, they ruined her forever, making her a power hungry creature, that would stop at nothing to have powers, and made Clark accept that, and be ok with it. Again.

They ruined both characters and the story they were telling this season for no reason at all.

Sad. :( How far can obsession with one single character go? It went to the point that the main character and everything he should stand up for means nothing at all... :(

you read my mind
exactly my thoughts

Exactly. But they are setting up something where it seems like Clark will only move on from Lana because she becomes a martyr.

[liana]

And unfortunatelly the damage is already done. I know a couple of fans that were so disgusted with Clark's acceptance of Lana that they are leaving the show. It is not so much his love of Lana that matters to them, but the fact that he still loves her even when she is doing all those questionable things. He accepts them, even though he knows it is wrong.

Right or wrong doesn't matter any more. Sad. :(

[zorasuperman]

very very true damage is already done way beyond repair only a miracle can save things now and even then i shake my head in sadness

True, though she left a pretty bad taste in my mouth, as she usually does.

[House of Brock]

They say Love makes a person blind. This couldn't be more obvious now with Clark and Lana. My hope is that they allow Clark to see how driven Lana is for power and that this desire to save lives and be equal is not something to appreciate, it really is something to fear in her case. With this exit of Lana, it may not signal to Clark that Lois is the one for him, but he will probably know that Lana isn't. Thats what I'm hoping to see.

Lana is not the problem. Clark is. He is the one that is being portrayed as accepting anything, even if it is sick, disgusting and wrong, so that he could be with her. He lacks moral compass. No matter if you love someone. If this person is doing something wrong, you can't support her by staying with her. When Clark stays with Lana, he is saying that what she is doing is right, even though he does know it isn't. And what is worst, he knows that having powers never ends well, and yet, he is not saying anything because he wants to be with her. He is so afraid to lose her, that he is willing to accept something that he truly suspects that might endanger her and the people around her because he is soooooo in love.

He lacks moral compass. Sad day. At least when he was stealing, he had redk to blame for. The only one we can blame for this is Clark. :(

[zorasuperman]

welcome to the forums House of Brock :D

[Kid Collins]

Power hungry to do good.

Lana wants to make a difference in the world.

After being a victim for so long, she's a victim no more.

It's a proper way for Lana to end up. Being able to take care of herself, without getting hurt and helping people along the way.

[lovinredkclark]

ps3 dont care what we think, so there is no point.
if they cared they wouldn't have brought her back.

I guess his protesting is supposed to mean something, like when he said it wasn't going to be a happy ending. But to me, he should have pushed her away in dissapointment in what she'd done.

[paolinki25]

He lacks moral compass.

You know, that also worries me a lot. There are times where Clark loses himself so badly, I cannot understand how this man is supposed to become Superman, and I'm sorry to say this, but it's usually involved Lana in some form.

What??? :confused:

Power hunger NEVER does good. EVER. And it's a well known fact.

What Lana's doing is sick and disgusting? And because why? I also didn't see Chloe jumping up and down yelling that Lana is wrong.....

He stays with her becaues he wants to be happy......

Clark already knows, rationally, that Lana isn't the one for him. He has repeatedly said this more than once in the show, and yet, he keeps going back to her. He knows that their relationship has always been dysfunctional, he knows it doesn't work. And so what?

On a recent comic arc, Superman tells Lana Lang, (right after she decides push a button that would spread kryptonite on the atmosphere, making it unbearable for any Kryptonian to live on Earth any more), one of the reasons that they would never work and he and Lois do, is because Lois would never do that. Comic Lana Lang willing chose the power of Luthor Corp, over the world (that needed Superman), over her friendship and supposed love for Clark.

When you go right down to it, she also believed her motivation was good. She also believed she could use Luthor Corp power for good. She was as power hungry as SVLana Lang. The difference is that Comic Clark makes it clear to her that one of the reason he fell so deeply in love with Lois, and not her, is because he would never accept that kind of behavior. SVClark has no problem with that, it seems. As long as they are together, does it matter who gets hurt on the process? Even it it Lana herself? :(

Wanting power so much, and to hell with the consequences is disgusting. You can do a lot good in the world, without going to this length to get this kind of power. And you know, as well as I do, that this is not going to end well, because it never does. Whenever someone gets so obsessed with power it never ends well. And I do believe that Clark, by aproving that is not doing what is right, even to Lana.

And I do believe that next week episode will prove that I am right and that it will be grave consequences because of Lana's choices in this episode.

I am a person that usually never judges Lana's action, unless they really seem wrong to me. In this episode, they were. Pretty much as I do believe she was very wrong more than once in season 7. I understood her motivations in season 7, but this time, I don't. It is not like she doesn't know that this is dangerous, and yet, she is still hungry for power. And you are absolutely right: Chloe, as her friend, should be the one telling her this is wrong, especially after everything that happened with her this season. She knows first hand, after everything that happened with Brainiac, how dangerous those things are. Lana knows, and Clark knows. And yet, everyone is silent about it, and just accept it.

But I am blaming Clark even more, because he is supposed to love Lana, right? So, if he really loves her, how can he possibly accept this?

[Kid Collins]

Let me clarify it.

Super powers to do good.

[House of Brock]

I guess my biggest gripe is that Lana did a lot of bad things but rationalized them with "good intentions". It is weird to go back and watch an episode from, say season 2, when she was an incredibly likeable character. We WANTED her to find out about Clark. But, as time went on, it is almost as if she didn't deserve to know. The way it is written, it shows us that since she's known everything about Clark, she has wanted to experience the same gifts and abilities that he has and doing whatever is necessary without the morals that one Clark Kent has. Isn't that the message that this show has conveyed for 8 years? That the difference between Clark and other super powered people (Not including Justice Leaguers) is that Clark was raised the right way and knows what is right and wrong? Think of Tina Greer for example. While her obsession with Lana was known, in her first episode, she believes she is doing good by using her gifts to rob a bank and provide financial security for her and her mom.

As a viewer, we can sympathize with the fact that Lana suffered great losses and it helped shape her as the jaded character that she is. But, it is hard to sympathize and root for her to achieve what a Superman can achieve.

Why can't it end well? Why can't someone get power and do the right thing.......heck, isn't that how uh.......every superhero started? Getting power, then making the right choice.......What consequences did Lana break or bring upon?

Clark approved, because it does make things a lot easier for them as a couple......Like Clark said, it's like a dream to him.......That's why.......


And I do believe that next week episode will prove that I am right and that it will be grave consequences because of Lana's choice in this episode.

Time will tell.......So far the only thing she did was rid Lex of a weapon and complete Clark's life.

[liana]

Let me clarify it.

Super powers to do good.

And there is a lot more people that do great good without superpowers. Just look the whole world, when there is no powers, and look what people have done.

[Alicia Chipy]

To me this episode just shows "that the road to hell is paved with good intentions".
Lana has always been power hungry but this was way over the top.

[zorasuperman]

very true of the saying "the road to hell is paved with good intentions."

[thehenry89]

Lana is doing all these things which anyone would consider morally questionable for "the greater good" when I listen to her speal about saving the world and doing the right thing it makes me sick to my freakin stomache.

There's no point in any petition. There's a reason these new showrunners have been so far underground for the past month or so, they are practically subterreanan. And now we know exactly why. They pulled a big ol' bait and switch on you folks. They had people convinced (me included) they were actually making improvements, and strides in the right direction, and allowing Clark to grow up, and then they turned around and snatched that rug right out from under you. And all to bow to the greatness and wonder that is Lana, who will be gone from the show, but leave behind a huge black hole of suck that S8 is unlikely to recover from. IMO

Heck, why sure Lana can go off and be the most wonderous superpowered hero of them all. Hasn't that been what we've all been waiting for? Oh wait....:rolleyes:

Here's hoping the Prometheus suit has a short shelf life.

Sad. :( How far can obsession with one single character go? It went to the point that the main character and everything he should stand up for means nothing at all... :( I wrote this on another thread but this applies here too, I think. I actually I think it is more an obsession with KK. I think it is because the writers seem to have been mostly men who have been infatuated with Kristen Kruek. They make KK the woman of their dreams and put themselves in the place of Clark. Therefore the reactions of Clark is really how they feel. They don't give a hoot about Superman, Clark Kent or canon. They are living their fantasy through Smallville. I always thought that the producers of the show fell in love with the way KK looks then instead of focusing on Clark decided to focus the shows attention on her. That is the only explanation I could think of as to why they put so much emphasis on Lana's lousy character.

Also, I think it is political as to why they have to make Lana more important than Lois. While Lois Lane has been apart of the Superman mythos for over or about 70 years, Erica Durance has only been on the show for 4 years. Whereas Kristen Kruek has been on the show most of the 8 years it has been running. Her character might not be liked so much but KK is loved by the powers that be. I think TPTB place KK in higher esteem then the Lois character so they have to make her important for the last few episodes that she is on SV. Mythos be damned. I could be wrong though.
