Foreshadowing The Return of Clana?

[Kreukie]

Before I continue, yes I'm a Clana shipper or at least was a Clana shipper. I think I'm confused how I feel about them at this point in the series, but I still enjoy their scenes very much!

Anyway I had this feeling while watching tonight's episode that there was a lot foreshadowing of the return of Clana.

First scene was the one at the Daily Planet, when Clark sees Lana.

The way they both looked at each other.

They both exchanged that awe stare with each other like they haven't seen each other in years, when just last week they saw each other and had a decent exchange of words.

Why did TPTB add that exchange?

Kind of reminded me of the old Clana whenever they would be on the outs, but yet still have those soulful exchanges with each other whenever they would see each other.

Kind of saying what they feel but without saying anything…

Then we have the scene in Lex's office, we have Lana asking Clark if he wishes he could go back in time.

Both seem like they both regert things they've done in the past, seems like mostly with their relationships.

Clark: Breaking up with Lana the way he did, causing her to distance herself from him.

Lana: Letting herself rebound into Lex's arms after her break-up with Clark putting herself in the place she is in now.

Then there's that last scene, everyone seems happy at the Kent dinner table, everyone in some type of relationship... but then we have Clark sitting alone, sad, almost thinking about where he is in life in the relationship department...which is alone.

If you listen to the lyrics of the music playing during that scene you'll hear the following words being sang:

She said no one would love you more than me.

I looked at her she looked at me I think she's waiting for me to believe.

I wish love was all that took I'll fall into if I could.

Then it fades to an also unhappy Lana at the dinner table.

It's an interesting thought, but as much as I'd love to see Clana again, I don't think it will happen (it's not in the cards---or specifically, the comics/movies). I'm hoping that they can at least be friends again.

Who said anything about them ending up together?

Just one last BANG before the series ends! ;)

[SmallvilleMan]

Dont play with me like this......Please, i'm begging you. Don't do this to me. *Runs away crying*

[smallvillerocks45]

Well, I know they won't end up together...and like I said I like the idea; I think it would be great if they dated one last time (I know a lot of people won't like that, but I'm a sucker for the Clana)...but besides the fact that they don't end up together, I just can't see Clark being with her after she was impregnated by his former best friend.

Hey, I'm as shocked as you are that these things were in this episode!

I usually don't take these things too seriously, but three different scenes foreshadowing it!

[SmallvilleMan]

But you have to remember one thing. Al/Miles hate Clana, they want to cut it up into a million pieces. I don't believe it's coming back and i refuse to believe it!(And that's for my own emotionally stability)

Clark doesn't seem like the type who would drop a girl just because of that...

I mean if he was willing to take back Alicia after all the stuff she did to him and Lana, I don't see why he would have an issue with Lana getting impregnated with someone else's child.

[Ares]

that scene pretty much sealed that we wont see another clana relationship again. Every time we see both of them on screen they always like to remind us that they'll never be back together.

[ShelbyKent]

With a Lana pregnancy, I think it's way too late for Clana to make a believable comeback. Sure TPTB can do it but I think it would take a huge amount of maneuvering that it will crowd-out other plot arcs altogether. Unless they go for another mindwipe *Almiles paranoia sets-in once more*

If that's the case, why not make them just be indifferent towards each other.

Rather show them giving each other longing looks at each other whenever they see each other.

And not show them both sad and alone within the same two seconds.

[firefly01]

I am not a fan of Clana, but I really liked their scene at the fireside. Lana definitely looked regretful, but the way she jerked away from him when he touched her was weird. At dinner, Clark didn't look sad to me at all though. He was smiling and looking around at everyone, and seemed at peace. I think this might actually be a turning point for him- to stop being mopey and move on.

ETA: I re-watched the scene just now (DVR rocks), and there actually is a moment right before it cuts to Lana where he has a brief look of sadness. Huh.

[Shadow116]

I'm not a fan of SV Clana the comic Clana was better :lol:

Anyway I enjoyed the Clana scenes last night. Lana finally knows she's gotten in too deep.

[InLove_with_Chloe]

The Clana scene was excellent, IMO. Great acting, I loved it.
However, no comeback of romantic Clana. But one day she will trust him again, and not send him away...

[Wildfire]

I think its like everyone says Lana knows shes probably just made the biggest mistake of her life with this kid.. But as far as Clana getting back together whats the point? I mean your suppose the major kiss that totally changes this for Clark. Heck Clark is suppose to end up with Lois. And honestly its not just becasue Im a Clois shpper, its becasue honestly the legalities involved in this make it to where they no other choice. So I ask whats the point in more Clana when it cant last, its just a waste of SL if you ask me?


Are you guys really ready to go through another Clana break up?

[monstra]

I dont wanna get my hopes up,since this show has played with my emotions more than once, but maybe after all this fiasco is over clana can re-connect again, and i want it to be romantically, god damnit we got the worst break up in the history of break ups in tv shows, i dont call that closure -_-

[SOTK]

I didn't pick up Clana moments at all in this episode. I saw Clark display awkwardness around Lana which was natural; natural in the sense of them being an ex-item and natural in the sense that Clark knows Lana is still upset with him. As far as Clark displaying concern for Lana, I chalked that up to Clark being Clark-he's a good guy and still cares for the well-being of Lana.

I seriously didn't detect any "foreshadowing of Clana" going on.

[Rhoda123]

If Clana ever resurfaces again, I will gouge out my own eyes with a knife.. I'm over it! The Clana shippers had 5 years of Clana.. now its Chlark's turn.. or even if they don't go that route, PLEASE NO MORE CLANA!!!!!!!

I agree this is 2 weeks in a row the clana scenes weren't bad,their scene in the mansion said alot.It shows that lana is startin to have regrets,she doesn't kno how she got herself into this mess.We all known clark has regrets,but it was a brief moment when I thought she was willing to open up to him,only to pull back.Still a nice scene tho,but I doubt we'll see romantic clana again.Jus them becomin friends/trusting again

[myankskent]

I'm surprised that people still don't realize this yet. This show is about Clana when it comes to relationships. The heart of the show is, and will always be, about Clana. That is not something that is going to magically change beause Lana is with Lex or that she is pregnant with Lex's child. Romantic Clana is probably over, but Clana is still going to be an important part of this show right up until the end. I expect there to be a long Clana scene in the series finale toward the end of the episode. It's Clana until the bitter end of this show.

[lana&Clark4ever]

i think theres a better chance for clana than chlark thats for sure. even though those scenes broke my heart, *sniff*, i know that sexy clana is coming back!

[jim[beam]]

Lana still has feelings for Clark and Clark has moved on I think. At least Lex said something about it. But I dont get it anyway...She couldn't live with Clark's secret but Lex has many secrets and she's not even upset about it.

Maybe a better chance but for those of us that know how special the Chlark relationship is and how horrible the Clana was, we can just sit back and smile..

As freinds yes but you forgot her place has really been taken by CHole. Lana right now destiny wise in a bad situation. Her place has been taken by CHole Lois is here and whats worse Chole is now possible about to become part of DC.

Why is that a problem you ask well for Lana in this show it means with mess up the writers made at the begining of the show and was making Chole the sidekick or best firend. Now we are faced with this, Chole for the most part is more popluar with the fans than Lana, and Lana unlike Lois does not have a franchise that protects her place and rights in the Superman mythos. So techinally if any destined character is expendable or Chole would cahnge her name to its Lana Lang. Becasue as of where is suppose to be she is so far away from it that it would take several seasons to put her back right.

The problem should be at the moment not putting CLana back together as a couple but saving Lana from Chole=Lana sort of shaft. Right or wrong its a problem that is real, right now the writers dont know what to do with Lana they are not ready for whatever reason and so she foreced to sinks to depths that the real Lana Lang ever sunk to (being preffers with Lex child FOR ONE).

Now this is not a slite on Chole becasue she is truely the best written character in the whole story, however it does pose a problem you cant fix over night.

I do conceed that the Clana break up as it happened was wrong, but making the a couple agian or having them sleep together or what not is not going to give you closer, prehaps a kiss and a prorper discusssion would be a better course to start on the Clana firendship.

[lana&Clark4ever]

yes...clana forshadowing. bad, happy, sad, or akward, any clana is all good with me. just bring the sexy couple back!

[jimmyolsenblues]

I disagree that this was Foreshadowing The Return of Clana.
I believe the exact opposite.
This is the conversation that ends clana, his we are friends, hey i wish things were different, hey i wish we could changes things, but too little too late its over.

This talk was the absolute end of Clana.

[Khyla]

...Kind of saying what they feel but without saying anything…

...the scene in Lex's office, we have Lana asking Clark if he wishes he could go back in time.

Both seem like they both regret things they've done in the past, seems like mostly with their relationships....

I had thought they were completely over one another and even had a bit of animosity towards each other, BUT NOW I def got the impression that either he is not over Lana, maybe never will be, or maybe it's that he is pining for that feeling of being in love that Lana represents.

[mobiusklein]

Honestly, just watch Relic or early S5 again if you're THAT hard up to see Clana get busy.

[lana&Clark4ever]

one more time for clana!

[paolinki25]

No, I honestly think this scene did not forshadow the return of romantic Clana at all. It might have foreshadowed the return of the friendship, but that's about it.

[Kreukie]

Don't be bitter.

[Wildfire]

You know I just going to say this, why are Clana fans focuing on the wrong Clana relationship? Why are not worried about the destined firendship which is seemingly in danger and more worried about a romantic one that in the end is not be?

I do want the friendship back, in all honestly that seems more real than the romance.

I'm just pointing out what I saw in this episode between them that foreshadowed their past and their future.

At least to me!

What's wrong with that? Not once did I say I wanted them back together.

Yeah I joked about having one last BANG and bringing sexy back, but that's only because some people are being so up tight and bitter in this thread over my views on what I saw in Rage.:eek:

[Tomsgurl88]

I actually liked the Clana scene in the mansion, i mean Clark is such a nice guy the way he was worried about her i was like aww.

Let me clarify something here, CHLOE is NOT for the most part more popular than Lana Lang. Just because less LANA fans post here @ Ksite does not mean that's a generalized fact. It may seem that a majority of fans ONLINE despises Lana but that's only ONLINE. In reality online fans only make up about 0.01% of the entire SV viewership.

Lana Lang is an iconic figure in the Superman mythos. She's always been a GREAT friend to Clark, even able to tell her things he couldn't tell Lois Lane. They share a lifelong bond that will always tie them together.

In fact, there are ALOT of Lana fans and alot of them are angry and taking actions as of now. You'll just have to wait and see what that's all about :cool:

[smallville_fetish]

Wow that never occured to me Kreukie.... I don't think they'll take the Clana shipper as far as them officially getting back together though... I think there will always be something there between them besides regrets, but at this point it's too late for either of those 2 to really turn back time.

[Chihiro]

I hope they don't get back together again. I like the Lana character most of the time, but as far as CLANA goes, that ship has sailed!

Exactly!

Do we have to result to google fights (http://www.googlefight.com/) to prove our point?

I guess we do!

Chloe Sullivan vs. Lana Lang:

Chloe Sullivan - 723,000 results

Lana Lang - 1,290,000 results

Shoot let's even do iconic Lois Lane since 1930's who just starred in a summer block buster vs. Lana Lang:

Lois Lane - 1,410,000 results

Lana Lang - 1,290,000 results

You would think Lois would be doing circles around silly little Lana Lang. :rolleyes:

Much like the following numbers.

Superman vs. Lana Lang:

Superman - 50,400,000 results

Lana Lang - 1,290,000 results

Clark Kent vs. Lana Lang:

Clark Kent - 3,610,000 results

Lana Lang - 1,290,000 results

[svsabbiesv]

you kno I really believe Clark will save Lana/baby from Lex. and this is how she'll find out about his secret...*prays*
I think Lex will put her in jeopordy...
it sucks..I loved the song at the end..thanks for the lyrics..man I really like Lois and Oliver together..If Clark is honest with Lana then I think they could have the relationship we all want!
yes a clana fan can dream can't I!!??

What? No they don't hate it. They loved it from the very beginning. Why the HELL do you think they beat us over the head with it for four seasons?

[Kreukie]

I believe that's the one thing that can take back all the wrongs that have been done to the relationship, at least in Lana's eyes.

Clark opening up to her and telling her the truth will make her understand his stand point much like a lot viewers do and forgive him for everything.

But it's Clark that needs to learn to trust everything will be okay if he take that step with Lana again with her knowing the truth about him.

[chlarkfan333]

Nope, I didn't see any foreshadowing in this Clana scene. Saw regret in both characters yes, but none of it led me to believe that we could be seeing the return of romantic Clana. What I saw is a girl conflicted, questioning her past (and future) choices, and a boy still concerned for his highschool sweetheart.

That's what makes you a Chlark shipper and me a Clana shipper. :p

[mobiusklein]

I'm not bitter. I'm just bored with this insistence that Clark has to be chained to someone who has proven to have major problems with her own life/choices, that she has to be the no. #1 gal forever and ever.

As I said, just watch faux versions of them get busy in Relic.

[tjpw fanatic]

PLEASE! No more Clana! It was back and forth for 5 seasons. I've had enough!

Like I said, don't be bitter.

As long as I've been on this board you're always had a bitter feeling towards anything in relations to Clana/Lana and still have it.

So speaking of being bored I think you're dislike towards everything Lana/Clana is as bad if not worst than those who want to see Clark have a friendship/relationship with Lana.

[thehenry89]

please no more clana...i mean we've had it for 5 years already. i love KFC but if i had it every day for 5 years i'd never want to see it again.

[tjpw fanatic]

LOL. Yeah, but it seems they got as sick of them as we did.

[kismet]

clana is enevitable but romantic clana is dead.

[Super Skunk]

I think that they will probably become friends again, but they probably won't be boyfriend/girlfriend ever again.

Besides, the show has focused too much on Clana and not enough on Clark's journey into Superman. Clark should move on and Lana should probably leave the series(but she won't).

[shirkie]

I think the Google fight thing was a little lacking as evidence goes... It's pretty sad that Chloe Sullivan, A CHARACTER MADE UP FOR "SMALLVILLE" had just half a million hits less than the iconic Lana Lang.

Anyways, if Clana comes back, count me out of watching "Smallville," and everyone knows how much I love this show.

I looked at her she looked at me I think she's waiting for me to believe.

I wish love was all that took I'll fall into if I could.

Then it fades to an also unhappy Lana at the dinner table.

Hhhmm... first of all, I want to say that I definitely saw Clana there. Not exactly sure if it was "we're going to get back together someday" Clana. But I did see that Clark clearly feels something for her. I think that he still cares deeply about her and when she was trouble and hurting, he was hurting for her. And I saw Lana kind of thaw in her icy attitude towards him. But then, after a moment of weakness, she froze up again. Maybe because she was afraid of being vulnerable again? Maybe because he irritated her with his assumptions that it was because of Lex and Clark could save her from Lex?

But what this means for the Clana as a whole? I don't know... I honestly don't see them addressing a Clana reunion for a loooonnngg time. This whole Lexana thing seems way too huge. It really seems like season 6 will be the year of Lexana. Perhaps, by the end of the season, Lana realizes she made a mistake about Lex & tries to repair her friendship with Clark. But I think that it'll be very tentative and hard. And the end result, imo, should be friendship. Because Clark always feels like he can't tell her his secret & that's something that Lana will never be able to live with.

And that's a good catch about the song. I didn't even think about it fading into Lana & how it could be used for Clana. But, honestly? I think that a Cloiser would look at it and think it's about Lois. (Because he looking at Lois when the first lines happen.) And a Chlarker would say that the song is about Chloe (because he's looking at Chloe during the song, too). And Lexana shippers will say it's about Lex will never believe Lana can love him. And even Mionel shippers could say it's about Mionel! :lol: In short: I don't think the song was meant for any ship. It was just a pretty song they stuck at the end of the episode at a nice bittersweet moment.

Lana isn't an iconic character though, an iconic character is a character who's name is a household name.

When Smallville first started people kept calling Lana, Lana Lane or even Lois Lane because they had no idea who Lana Lang was.

Those numbers are recordings of recent searches.

What has Lana been in outside of Smallville as of recent?

She hasn't been in a comic issue in months!

She wasn't in Superman Returns, or the new JL cartoon series or anything such as that.

Lana the character only has Smallville going for herself at the moment.

Just like Chloe the made up character.

Point is Chloe isn't more popular than Lana, Chlark isn't more popular than Clana, Allison Mack isn't more popular than Kristin...ect

If Chloe was more popular than Lana, those numbers would show that, since again those are recent recordings of people's searches on google.

[Sk8erGur1]

I doubt if Clark and Lana will return. The way they looked at each other and the way Lana's reaction changed after he left so quickly to "So, Chloe.... what are we doing again?" said that.


Nah, I don't see it.

[maitriniazngurl]

As much as I love Clana... I really don't see them coming back together... I see the moments of Clois and I think 'It's doom' but I do see them being friends. I just hope for a big banging moment.. but that's it.

Just like Chlark... It's never gonna happen. So as much as I hate it.. I think the show is now gonna be Clois.

[BlueNRed2]

I'd be surprissed if TPTB decide to revisit the Clana angle. If anything, they probably are setting the stage for Clark and Lana to make peace so that they can end the series with them as friends.

[superman_115]

I hope they never bring it back together. Get rid of it completely, 4 seasons of this nonsense is enough for me.

[Fred the Man]

They can hint at it in the season finale: Lana finally decides she wants Clark back and goes to the farm to tell him, but finds out from Martha that he has left town and she does not know when he will be back (he leaves for training with Jor-el). The episode ends with Lana pouting.

[All about Clark]

Fred the Man that would be way cool of a season finale and makes sense to because Lois isn't in his brain yet, but his training is and of course they can't really bring romantic Clana back, to many disappointed fans in doing that.

[s_q]

If Clana happens, im out of smallville completely. she needs to die and she needs to die soon. before i kill her.

[Luthorism]

[HeimdallGrim]

Well... I sort of disagree with some of your observations.

For example, that look to me was a look of, "Oh hell, I wasn't expecting to see him/her". And, I notice Clark makes the conscious decision to turn his back to her as he leaves.

"Then there's that last scene, everyone seems happy at the Kent dinner table, everyone in some type of relationship... but then we have Clark sitting alone, sad, almost thinking about where he is in life in the relationship department...which is alone."

I didn't see that. I think Clark was watching everyone and seeing what he's thankful for. I mean, of the 5 other people there 4 know about his powers, all are close to him, all he cares about (though, you're never really sure if he cares for Lionel). I guess I just didn't see the scene like you did.

[Farm_Girl]

Well, I have to admit that I liked both Clana scenes in this episode.

I don't think romantic Clana will come back, but Al Miles will keep revisiting their fav ship on the show with stuff like this. IMO I don't mind. I liked the depth in both Clana scenes.

Didn't Al Miles say that they want to do their fav triangle Clark/Lex/Lana something like that.. I guess this is how they are doing it..

If you see their awkwardness, you'd really feel they had something really huge in the past.. but, sadly, *past* emphasized.

I am sure that this awkwardness will be created again in the future, and Lex might come to note this time.. which will make things interesting..

But, romantic Clana is not coming back, IMO.

That's assuming my ship preference is biasing my judgement as is yours and I can tell you that the former is not true. If it were, I would be saying Chlark is in the works but Clois is not...and I don't believe that to be the case.:)

[that girl]

I don't see them ever going back to having a romantic relationship, but this episode seemed to me to be the beginning of the new Clana friendship. In my opinion, even Clark now realizes that they're not gonna grow old together but that doesn't stop them from caring about each other platonically. Enough time has past now since their messy break up for them to start getting past it and becoming friends again. Because that's what they always were, first and foremost: friends.

I personally think that when Lana finally figures out how evil lex really is, Clark (and others, like Chloe, as well of course) is gonna be there for her. And that's what they've started setting up in this episode.

That line about turning back time,proved that Clark is NOT over Lana.He nearly cried as he said "All the time".I dont know if its forshadowing but i hope so. :)

I believe the exact opposite.
This is the conversation that ends clana, hey we are friends, hey i wish things were different, hey i wish we could changes things, but too little too late its over.

This talk was the absolute end of Clana.

I agree. This was the end of Clana romantically, but as someone on this thread said there will be further scenes of friendship.

I also liked the idea of Clark saving Lana & Baby from something Lex set in motion and Lana learns his secret that way.

I think we will see friendship scenes between Clark & Lana, and these will deepen (but not in any romantic way; they have both moved on). Remember Lana and Clark were at one point virtual enemies 'Lana: I don't know how I could have ever loved you'. TPTB will repair the friendship and make it close.

I think the Clana scene at the mansion was a tacit acknowledgement from them both that they've made mistakes, and that they have both moved on (romance ended), but a shadowing of a renewal of trust and friendship between them. (But with no romance).

[TalkinMac]

Nope. Sorry to burst your bubble. TPTB are pushing for Clois now.
It would be nice to see Clana friendship though, may be the first time I will actually enjoy their interaction.

[clanaalltheway]

I am a clana shipper. but i only like clana ( like in the last couple of episodes at the end of season 2) when there happy. but i really dont like it when there in the inbetween stage. As for foreshadowing i think they probably wont get together but they will have plent of scenes like in rage.

He could have been talking about a lot of things here. How many times has something bad happened that Clark has blamed himself for? The meteor showers, Martha's miscarraige, Jonathan's death, etc. etc. Clark carries around an awful lot of guilt, just because he wants to change what happened in the past doesn't mean he's not over Lana.

[darkone]

It was a Clana interaction,so he definitely meant their relationship especially the Hypnotic ****.

[angelfire east]

I don't see any hints of them getting back together. I see Lana regreting her relationship with Lex seeing Clark and only seeing the good bits. Everytime something goes wrong with whoever she with she'll look at Clark and only see the good bits and wish she was back with him. Two mintues later she'll remember why they broke up and be back pissy with him.

^ Lana really bad for doing that. Everytime she does that doesn't mean she going to get back together with him

[ginnyfan]

I think perhaps there is hope that Clark and Lana can be friends. But I think romantic Clana is dead.

[Dor el]

Lana and Clark as friends--eventually. As a romantic couple--probably not.

Lana and Clark both have a multitude of reasons to be regretful. And both have a multitude of reasons they should apologize and get on with being friends. Romantic or not, I think they kind of need each other. Clark needs her to forgive him so he might have a better chance of forgiving himself. Lana needs Clark because of the good things he represents to her (Not to mention all the saves she's probably gonna need. But, he'd save her regardless of whether or not they were getting along. That's just Clark.)

WTH? What they showed inthis scene is that Clark and Lana are NOT over each other, Ive never seen Clark threat that way to Chloe nor Lois when hes worried about them, in this scene Clark looked like he was about to cry, they both havent moved on, and I doubt this was their closure in the romantic sense. Lois only has 5 more episodes after 'Hydro' and 13 more next season, so I doubt they'll play the Clois for a long time, and knowing AlMiles they wont want Clark to be alone, hence the return of Clana.

At least thats what Im hoping for :D

I don't follow you. Just because it was a Clana scene means the only thing he could possibly be talking about was Clana? How did you get there?

[MasterJonSt]

It all really comes down to the secret at the end of the day. If Lana finds out, she will finally be able undertstand all of the things Clark did and understand why he seemed so secretive. let's face it, she is only with Lex because of Clark's secretive behaviour.

If Lana knew the truth behind why Clark does the things he does, she would be able to forgive and forget all the **** that has happened between them.

I can see why Lana may be over Clark, but Clark over Lana?

The reason he broke up with her the way he did was because he LOVED her THAT much!

That's what some seem to forget. :rolleyes:

Mod Note: Watch your language! This is a PG-13 fourm

Why can't Lana just be responsible for her own behavior, her own choices, and her own diasters? Yes, Clark hurt her feelings. But. it was Lana who decided to go hang out with Lex. She should know full well that Lex has a tendancy to be a naughty boy. To say that Lana is only with Lex because of Clark's secrets really enables Lana's self destructive choices. It reinforces the belief that she is incapable of making her own decisions and of being an adult. If we hold Lana to the responsibility level of a 4 year old, shouldn't we hold Lex and even Clark responsible for pedophilia? Nope, Lana's choices are her own as is the unpleasant situation she now finds herself in.

Yes he broke up with her becuase he loved her and didn't want to hurt her more but before he did some really hurtful thigns. Can she forgive him? It depends. Can she be in another relationship with him? It depends.

They should move forward to friendship instead of regressing to pointless, mind numbing angst romance. And it will be pointless mind numbing annoying romance becuase that all tptb can write, even the happy clana is tainted with lies, secrets and denial IMO.

[MBCorp]

I think the show is going to have Clark and Lana make up and becomes friends again. They have Lana doubting Lex and they've been showing the Clana interactions to be alot more civilized than they were, so it wouldn't surprise me if after this baby drama is over they have Clana become friends. Romantically it's over. I know Gough & Miller have a bad habit of lying to the fans but I do believe them when they say that romantic Clana is dead and buried. I just can't see that dead horse being beaten yet again. It does kind of seem to me that they are developing the first steps towards a friendship between the two.

[clana_never_give_up]

I think that when Clark tells Lana his secret, they will get back together for a little while.

At least one more time, TPTB needs to change the way clana ended. This way if Lana knows his secret we all won't hate Clark for lieing to her.

[mobiusklein]

I really don't think they'll get busy ever again. Just be satisfied if they can talk in a way that's not hostile.

Nah, Lana diserves what she is having and what she'll get...for sleeping with the enemy :rolleyes:

Lex isn't the enemy to Lana, because she doesn't see what we see.

I wish she did, but sadly the girl in the dark about everything.

If I was Chloe I would had opened every file I have on Lex and relayed everything Clark has ever told me and Lex to Lana.

[mobiusklein]

And have Lana blab everything to Lex? Wow, let's endanger a whole lot of people because some girl is just too stupid and needy to take care of herself?

LANA is the one who mewed that she could take care of herself, didn't need protection, that she was nobody's prey, etc. Let her eat what she sowed.

When has Lana ever told Lex something Chloe/Clark has ever told her?

Something that's a sercet, something that they wouldn't want Lex knowing?

Lana knew about Clark knowing about Zod and she never told Lex about it when she was filling him about that day.


LANA is the one who mewed that she could take care of herself, didn't need protection, that she was nobody's prey, etc. Let her eat what she sowed.

Um, what does that have to do with a friend letting another friend know the whole story behind her boyfriend?

What does Clark/Chloe have to win from keeping Lana in the dark about everything they know about Lex?

Clark finally warned Lana about Lex AFTER he broke up with her, AFTER he lied to her for the final time by telling her he no longer loved her.

He waited THAT long to finally tell Lana to keep away from Lex!

Clark should had told Lana about all the things he knew about Lex right around the time Lana was getting close and working with Lex.

Or exactly when they happened!

The ONLY reason Lana started working on the ship with Lex was because Clark kept shutting her down whenever she tried to talk to him about the ship.

Why do people get so bent out of shape whenever people make comments about Lana being left in the dark?:lol:

It's the truth, Lana always kept in the dark about everything!

Then when she makes a mistake, quickly it's her fault.

It's like faulting someone who's never opened a math book in their life for getting the answer 1 plus 1 equals two wrong. :rolleyes:

What's the worst thing Lana has ever encounter Lex do?

What hear say has Lana ever heard (before getting together with him) has Lana ever heard?

What's the worst thing Lex did to HER (before getting together with him) to make her want to forever stay away from him?

When you can answer the above with good examples I'll agree that Lana knew better.

Lana was kept in the dark about a lot things that BOTH Clark and Chloe knew about Lex.

[Raistlin]

If Clana ever resurfaces again, I will gouge out my own eyes with a knife.. I'm over it! The Clana shippers had 5 years of Clana.. now its Chlark's turn.. or even if they don't go that route, PLEASE NO MORE CLANA!!!!!!!

I love Chloe. I adore Clark. I enjoy their relationship status: best friends. But if I'd ever been a Chlark-er I would have given up on the possibility of a romantic relationship in season 3.

Exactly!

Do we have to result to google fights (http://www.googlefight.com/) to prove our point?

I guess we do!

Chloe Sullivan vs. Lana Lang:

Chloe Sullivan - 723,000 results

Lana Lang - 1,290,000 results

Shoot let's even do iconic Lois Lane since 1930's who just starred in a summer block buster vs. Lana Lang:

Lois Lane - 1,410,000 results

Lana Lang - 1,290,000 results

You would think Lois would be doing circles around silly little Lana Lang. :rolleyes:

Much like the following numbers.

Superman vs. Lana Lang:

Superman - 50,400,000 results

Lana Lang - 1,290,000 results

Clark Kent vs. Lana Lang:

Clark Kent - 3,610,000 results

Lana Lang - 1,290,000 results

Good job. Who knew?
