Finally Superman is being born But there is one problem.

[frooky]

Well it took 8 seasons but finally smallville is back on track.

The positives:

clark is following his destiny and like in the comics works at DP so he can be in the middle of the action and get there fast when needed. Finally more action nicer familiar superman-ish surroundings and storylines.

No more whinny clana and all that triangle weird drama crap, superman is about action ,adventure,fantasy not a over-abused soap opera.

The negatives or should i say unknown variables due to the DC continuity:

1.clark meets lois in highschool and they even live together for a while.

2.Lois and half of of smallville and god knows who knows clark as a full adult with no glasses how are u gonna wear glasses and fool everyone now?

3. Doomsday is a human who becomes who knows what.

4. MM is working for Jor-El???

so i would like to see how they make the final transition to superman with all those changes.

:) You've pointed out some important Issues in the 'Smallville' version of Clark Kent's story. The answer will most likely come from the writers getting REAL Creative when it comes to this Reinterpretation of his story. Maybe, Clark Will have to wear some type of mask to disguise himself for example the way he did in one of his alternate comic book stories. :\

However, :rolleyes: that part of your assessment I highlighted in BOLD print above is what I'd like to address. IMO, the Drama that involves Personal Relationships is the Solid Foundation that Supports every Great story. Without that, the story is flat and all the action and adventure would seem Pointless. :cool:

let me rephrase ofcourse every story needs some drama and love stories but you can only butcher the same concept over and over. Lois and clark (continuity aside) dancing around each other and stuff is fine especially since we know where its leading.

i personally waited for years for lana and clark to finally be honest and together but the writers butchered that as well what can i say. Now the final piece is flight you cant tell me every other super villain or guest star can fly but yet clark wont even try knowing he should be able to as a kryptonian.

Point taken. However, there is a point at which human drama can overtake the main story -- Clark's journey toward becoming a superhero icon -- that crosses the line from spice-of-life to ridiculous. Several times, SV has reached that point but, to its credit, has righted itself and given us action junkies a break.

The best drama balances characterization with plot/action. First, we have to give a hoot about the characters. Then stuff happens to enable the characters to react and change (for the better or worse). In drama, it's really tough for the "stuff" to come entirely within and between the core characters without any external intervention at all. That might be where internal novels come from, but it's impossible to sustain believably in TV.
