9.02 - Metallo - Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

[Prison Mike]

looks like the show will stay in the 2-3 million range this season.

 

[Webhead2006]

totally with the friday night slot. So if that holds true there is no worry for the show. I am glad even with the lost of a big market like nyc we had decent numbers.

 

[Prison Mike]

I'm sure it will go up when the final numbers come in. Will they add the NYC numbers for tonight?

 

[Webhead2006]

i would think so to have the final regular numbers in. Then we still have to wait a few weeks to see how both savior and metallo and the rest do with the counted in live +7 numbers.

 

[Prison Mike]

the DVR numbers for Savior should come in this upcoming week or next.

 

[Webhead2006]

yup i think someone said the dvr/tivo numbers come in 2-3 weeks later. We have seen the other cw shows go up pretty good with those numbers. So i hope for smallville its a good bump too.

 

[gohei_]

Is that Jor-el in the S? It kinda looks like Tom Welling in that pic.

 

[Webhead2006]

i believe its meant to be. if you have been following the spoilers.

 

[gohei_]

Yeah okey. Yeah I try to not to read to much spoilers but I knew he would come back in some form. But Tom wasn't going to reprise his role right?

 

[Webhead2006]

Spoiler

yes in episode 7 kandor, played by julian sands.

 

[gohei_]

ah okey. thanks.

 

[kal_el_526]

Awesome gifs you can tell his heat vision has gotten stronger since the pilot it went from little heat waves to pure fire almost haha

 

[Webhead2006]

oh totally if you go back to heat season 2 when he got the power it was more clear/just heat waves coming from his eyes. But over the years it has been getting stronger/more powerful and being more red/fire like.

From this: Season 2 Heat


To this: Season 9 Metallo

 

[kal_el_526]

Yea i first noticed a big change back in prototype it seemed like a red laser when he shot it at the soldier. Now its starting look more like fire though. Its a nice visual progression.

 

[Serene]

Um, is it just me or was Tess subtly hitting on Lois? The peeps on the Kryptonsite board seem to think so.

About as subtle as a sledghammer.

 

[Superfreak]

Is that Jor-el in the S? It kinda looks like Tom Welling in that pic.

that's what I'm thinking. A younger version of Jor'el.

 

[\S/JcDc\S/]

Loved the Terminator reference

Btw, BAG has turned into a very good actor. I honestly never would have guessed he would improve so much. Dare I say it, he could transition to a movie career rather well. If a Bladerunner remake were in the works (for all I know it is lol) I think he'd be a great choice btw

 

[COMPO]

Metallo looked boss and omg Clark's back yay!

 

[Prison Mike]

personally, I think it would have been the perfect time for Clark to come back with glasses. At least start preparing for the dual identity.

 

[The Caped Knight]

​

I love The Daily Planet sunrise shot in the opening

 

[TwilightPro101]

Second that.

 

[Mikelus]

"Metallo" was better than the premiere IMO, it was more intense and had its lighter moments with the wonderful Clark and Lois reunion at the DP. I agree the mysterious man on the \S/ was Jor-El, is going to be a hell of a surprise when Kal-El meets him. t:

This is the best season start in years, next week is kneelbeforezombies!


Ps: Dear Hype, a Zod smilie would be appreciated, you even have one for Abomination for Pete's sake!

About as subtle as a sledghammer.

I was definitely feeling some lesbian undertones between the two... and it's not just me being a horny teenage male sensing lesbianism everywhere I look! If I hadnt watched the episode where they fought and just tuned in to this one, I would've thought they had intercourse...

Nah, you're just seeing things...




Although Cassidy said this:

Cassidy: Oliver is actually gonna rekindle some feelings for Lois. I mean how can you not? She's just so perfect. Do you know what I mean? She's like the most perfect woman. [...] And the Lois and Clark relationship only gets hotter. I like reading the scripts, they're like romance novels.
