7.16 - Descent - Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

Niiice. So CW did spoil it in the preview afterall..

Not the first time. The CW did the same thing last year with Supernatural when a main character was killed (they got better, but thats not the point). And The WB did the same the year before that with One Tree Hills finale cliffhanger.

The CW just kinda sucks.
 
Can't say this with absolute certainty but I'm hearing from credible sources that the trailer is really misleading and that Glover has already signed on for season 8.
 
Official description:

THE DAY CLARK AND LEX BECAME MORTAL ENEMIES — The secret of Veritas leads Lex (Michael Rosenbaum) in a dangerous direction that will put Clark (Tom Welling) and Lex in each others’ crosshairs. There is a major power struggle and one character dies. Kristin Kreuk, Allison Mack, Erica Durance, Laura Vandervoort, Aaron Ashmore and John Glover also star. Ken Horton directed the episode written by Don Whitehead & Holly Hendersen.

From ENI.

your source is very wrong
 
^It's from K-Site:

http://www.kryptonsite.com/smallvillespoilers.htm

UPDATED 3/5/08: More details, from a source within the studio: Now that Smallville is officially picked up for an eighth season, negotiations will begin with Allison Mack and Michael Rosenbaum, both of whom had contracts which end with Season Seven. No official deals have been signed for them as of yet. Kristin Kreuk will be back for at least part of Season Eight.

Tom Welling, Aaron Ashmore, Laura Vandervoort, Erica Durance, and John Glover are all still signed and expected to return for the show's eighth year.
 
The promo pictures aren't misleading. Plans can change.

Lionel Luthor dieing doesn't necessarily mean JG is out. After all he is the vessel of Jor-El and would most likely be the living version of him.
 
I'm not sure if Jor-El is able to use a dead body to communicate lol.
 
lol, idk I'm just trying to make sense out of all of it.
 
after this weeks revoked promise of clark attempting to fly, if CW have mislead us again with this trailer for decent then I'll officially stop watching smallville for good. I can't stand that misleading crap anymore, it does my head in.

This is true.

I strongly believe the death of Lionel and the resolution of the Lex storyarc this season is due to Al/Miles inability to secure MR for Season 8.

I assume the original plan was to have both JG and MR on board for Season 8; but that didn't happen.
 
Why doesn' CW mislead for freaking Gossip Girl or other teen crap they deliver

ib seriously hope this NOT another false advertising
 
your source is very wrong
Actually that's what I thought and then I was reminded that we were promised a death when season 6 ended but everyone returned for season 7.
 
They always mislead. That's their job. Heck they even do it in the official descriptions a lot.

I find it funny they still include Kristin's name in there. But I can understand why.
 
I'm not sure if Jor-El is able to use a dead body to communicate lol.


Have you not been watching this show, Jor-el can do anything. Oh and he already has used a dead body to communicate, that fake Kara from season 3 finale.:o

Boy do These Pictures sure show it . Clark looks really Pissed-Off & Lex looks like he doesn't give a damn What Clark thinks . He's happy he's finally gotten ready of his Old Man once and for all .

I wonder if Lex will rename Luthorcorp to Lexcorp now?

That is without a doubt the Next step bring the story that much closer towards the Superman storyline .

I've been waiting a long time for the name change . :woot:

Just because I'm sure its Lionel who dies, I almost wish its Chloe who is just ruthlessly murdered by Lex. I know someone pretty much said this a few posts back. I think the shock value would be great, but after that I'd regret it just because I think I'm one of the few Chloe fans. Gah I can't wait till this episode. Probably going to be in the top 10 best, but then again thats what I thought Veritas was going to be in...


Heres to this episode living up to all expectations :up:

well
I read somewhere that Lex will fire Chloe from the DP so in some ways, Lex does kill Chloe's journalism aspirations for now. lol

There'd be nothing poignant about Lex killing Chloe. Killing his father and taking over is what we've been waiting for, its the final step for Lex.
 
Hopefully Chloe dies at some point soon. Shes lived out her usefulness bigtime.

Her appearance in that last scene of Veritas ruined it.
