I'm shocked they showed him this early in the game. Just.....wow.

my thoughts exactly... I would of thought they would of kept it for last and made it a two parter... but in all honesty, I don't even think DD should be this early in the mythos

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! xD
 
holy ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
...

yeah... incomplete...

don't get me wrong, those screencaps look so freaking awesome... but something is just lacking :csad:
 
Oh, KalKai. Ya never let us down. :heart:
 
I understand how you feel. It feels like its too soon... I don't know.. I wasnt expecting DD to show up that fast.. though he looks amazing.

His profile looks way better than his front...
 
What a twist, they basically just got rid of Chloe.

Well, they essentially can now.

Awesome.

That would suck for clark. Wiping her memory to protect her... only to have her die.
 
Idk, but those screencaps don't really do much for me. Maybe I would've been super hyped had i seen the trailer fully and on tv, but until i at least see it online, those pics just leave me with a 'eh' feeling.

EDIT: Just saw the trailer and i guess the idea of hem showing him is cool, but the shadows kept him from a full reveal with is both a good and bad thing.

lol, no, that's not it... I'm so looking froward to next week's episode, and I really mean that...


it's just...
look at this picture, and tell me what you see...


i mean, when the whole Doomdsay arc came out in the early 90's that's when I REALLY got into the comics... I guess I'm not used to seeing Superman, and especially when it comes to the DD arc, I really want that suit, and for me, it really means something because it got me interested in comics...

I'm still gonna watch it next week... but to me, it's not the same without that suit :csad:
yeah, I know, small rant, but that darn suit really means something to me :O...

especially when it the story deals with Doomsday

LMAO, yes, darnit... for the first time when it comes to this show, I'm having it...
I'm having SWS (Suit Withdrawal Syndrome) :p

this show has gotten better with each episode this season, i LOVE the doomsday storyline in smallville actually
 
I can't believe some of the ppl who went, eh, at the screencaps & trailer. You cry about doing doomsday justice & making him like his comic counterpart & when they do the right thing you find somethign to complain about. Why?. For me this is the best thing I have ever seen smallville do, they stuck true to doomsdays appearance, they showed respect for us & all you can muster is a meh?. :whatever:

Weird seeing Clark fight DD so early in his life, like Super Kal said

I don't think the character's look in the show is bad, it's just i feel the reveal in the trailer and screencap doesn't really do him justice. I feel like when I get to see it on my tv next week it'll look freakin' awesome and I can't wait for it. But based on what i've been able to see so far, in terms of quality, i feel like it's not enough to get me as riled up as everone else who got to see the trailer right after the show.
 
I liked this episode alot and enjoyed the trailer but if I do not see a knock down drag out brawl i will be super pissed and so will my 11 year old brother. I want something as good and hopefully better than the titan fight or the Johnathan VS CLark fight, that was awsome too.
 
Guys, just because they don't show Doomsday 100% is no reason to whine, what matters is that the look is faithful to the comics, not bad for a freaking TV show. Then you will whine because they don't have a movie budget to have the best SFX, blah blah blah.... what a pathetic mentality.

I would not expect a big fight this time, is obvious they will leave it for later, when Clark already flies and is more powerful.

I'm still curious as to what Doomsday's role will be for the rest of the season. I mean it would suck if they take the Bizzaro route and give him the shaft in one episode.

No see that is dumb because that is all Doomsday is about, fighting and killing. Clark needs to fight him HARDCORE to subdue him, they cant ***** out of this one.
