Did anybody notice Clark having the Superman curl in his hair, when he was talking to Zatanna in front of that vortex thing????? Pretty iconic for Smallville standards. I am not sure if it was intentional or not, but whatever, pretty cool anyway.

Yes, I've been noticing the stray strand of hair on his forehead. Very subtle how they are doing it this year. And HOT, of course

i was rewatching the scene. I noticed it, then literally a few seconds later, it was gone. How could Clark go styling at a time like this?

I know!!! Was that intentional? If I had the chance that's what I'd ask the director!

^ He also had it when chloe as lois slipped. I think the makeup/hair people are doing it on purpose and they are trying to incorporate the swirl as subtly as possible.

I didn't notice it honestly... what I did notice was it felt like he was Superman there...

His stance and everything.. the way he said... "I am finally the man my father wanted me to be" and honestly.. that line was great.. it meant Jor-El and Jonathan. They both wanted him to be Superman, in totally different aspects or by their own definition.

When Clark was talking to Zatana. His hair flip foward in the iconic style with the curl at the front.double check that scene

Yeah--I have to believe it was intentionally done at the exact time he talks about embracing his destiny.

And he was talking about finally living up to his father's expectations; it applies for both of them.

Oh yes, I definitely noticed; he also had the curl when EDChloe tripped and he caught her.

The Lois puppy dog eyes curled lock had me squeeing and the Superman-esque lock with Zatanna had me on my feet cheering.

Did anybody else catch the curled lock of hair on Clark's forehead as he was talking Zatanna down -- when he is talking about being the man his father always wanted him to be.

The curl of hair has long been one of the iconic superman details -- though often a little one.


I thought it was a great touch to add at that moment.

Did anyone notice that when clark was on the roof top with zatanna as she was about to bring her father back, that clark's hair had a curl in the front resembling the actual superman with the recognizable hair curl with the bangs

I just watched the episode for the second time and was stunned by this! I am surprised I didn't catch it ther first time.

It's only in the bit of the scene where he says "I'm now the man my father wanted me to be." His hair is just slightly blowing before and after but not nearly enough to get this result. It has to have been planned. When coupled with the line itself, I'm convinced it was on purpose!

Way to go, director! Or, I guess the writer could have requested it to be put there. Either way, I loved it!

Well actually in the scene where chlois fall he also has the curl !!:D
so that was kind of Lois and superman ;D

Is this like a new drinking game?

Everytime you see Clark with the "S" curl in his hair chug your beer?

What are the other rules?

Can I play?

Yes. In the last three episodes I've been noticing it more and more. TW's hair is styled longer at the front so it falls in a soft wave. It's been like that since "Infamous" and you can see a small curl on the end of his fringe.

In that scene with Zatanna, the wind was blowing his hair so that the curl was more pronounced. And I think it was probably intentional. Similarly, Lois' hair is darker and more in keeping with her iconic self. They're just doing the same with Clark.

Wow, three episodes? I just noticed it when the wind was hitting his hair up on the roof, lol. They need to make these things more noticeable!

Okay, I'll stop cos this would be seriously off topic. :\

The curl appeared in Plastique, Identity, Turbulance, and now Hex. There may have been other episodes that I forgot. The one in Plastique was the best to me.

xrayvision
03-29-2009, 08:46 PM
That did not look like the classic curl to me. The classic curl is not as wide as what we saw & has a neater appearance. The one in Hex seemed a little sloppy to me. I liked the one in Combat when he was speaking to Richter Maddox. You could see a slight version of the curl. It needs to be more pronounced than it was in Combat but less than what we saw in Hex IMHO.

Noticed the curl but didn't get it right away-- I thought it was just the wind giving the bangs... now I understand when I read 2 or 3 posts mentioned the s-curl! Lol!

i noticed it but then i assumed it was unintentional as the continuity people failed to keep it in place.
