Aqua - Discussion Thread(Spoilers)

[triplet]

I've gotta buy one of those tags.

I bought those, they're nice and heavy and are good quality.



I recommend them, not just because it's for a good cause. They're very attractive.

 

[RKromwell]

I don't think it was that he could see Clark on land. I think it had more to do with the fact that he did not come back after that second blast.

 

[triplet]

Marsters was one of the reasons I enjoyed this episode, despite my reservations with the actor playing AC. And to whoever said he was leagues above everyone else in the acting department I totally agree, although all the regulars are excellent too. But I think it comes from all those years working on Buffy and Angel.

No, actually I think it was due to all those years studying acting at places like Julliard and the American Conservatory Theatre...

 

[triplet]

Now Im a huge fan of the show, HUGE. But I feel this was as much of a waste of my time as Velocity was. They had good intentions but it was badly executed.

I agree, to an extent, but I think I liked it better than you but it wasn't nearly as good as Run was, IMO. I just don't see it, for those that prefer this to Run.

The mind boggles, actually.

And Todd Slavkin and Darren Swimmer were the writers on this episode, and were also responsible for Velocity.

Did you know that when you mentioned that particular episode?

Pretty funny if you didn't, and very telling...

 

[muscaremy]

watchin it again .... i notice did ac ever say how he was able to do what he does..... cuz i didnt think so


oh and the brainiac line was "do you knw where the worlds greatest super computer resides" pointin to his head "the brain" again cant believe no one sed anythin

 

[RKromwell]

I got quite a few smiles from the lines tonight. But when AC called Clark a boyscout I was rolling.

 

[KalKai]

Fine saying "we only use 10% of our brain" that ain't true right? i remember reading somewhere that it's all a lie lol.

 

[muscaremy]

boyscout yea forgot bout that one hehe had me rollin too

HAHAHAHA I had no idea they wrote it. Nice catch Triplet.

 

[NHawk19]

Gotta say I liked this episode. Not as much as run but close. Only reason I give run the nod is because compared to that this one was kind of a carbon copy. Also A.C..s surfer speak was starting to become grating.

Things that I thought they did well; nice nod back to Run, Lex is definetly going darking and MR is pulling it off, Brainiac was handled well, Superboy was a nice one to sneak in.

Things I thought were forced; JLA though I did go nuts when I heard him bring it up.

Other than that the only thing I have to question is why the hell Lana doesnt know. For the love of god her bf was shot, killed, and brought back. She cant be that dumb especially after the no secrets speach.

Overall not as good as the first 3 but a far cry from Lucy.

 

[KenK]

Where's young Bruce Wayne! I figure they'll have to get around to all the JLA heavy hitters at some point! Can't wait for them to do an ep where a mysterious woman named "Diana" comes to Smallville! But more than anything I want to see Bruce, especially since WB originally wanted to focus on him in his teen years for a series.

 

[joke]

Well I just started watching this episode and.. Well, in the beginning when Lois appears in the bikini.. Is it just me or did she look like a twig? Or was she just really sucking in her stomach?

KenK, if I remember correctly, they can't get the rights to use Bruce Wayne's character in Smallville. And they've already mentioned a woman embassador from an island called.. (Check out the first episode in the series, 1x01)

This is neither the time nor the place for that crap. Couldnt you pick one of the other 3214561321561531651514654 threads about BW.

Clark likes his womans stupid

 

[NHawk19]

Clark likes his womans stupid

Yeah I can see it

Lana: I thought you were dead

Clark: Nope

Lana: But I saw you

Clark: must've been someone else

Lana: ok . . .How did you ruin your clothes

Clark: I fell down . . . .alot

It wasn't as good as run, but the episode was good. When he shot Clark out of the water, I was lovin it. Plus I thought the JLA line was hilarious, and A.C. calling Clark Superboy. I also agree about Velocity, but there are not many as bad as that one, maybe Lucy, but not many more.

All in all a great episode with an interesting character addition. A.C. showing Clark that he had to look beyond his home town was great. Trouble isn't always just happening locally.

Strange catch of the episode: Did anyone notice the mountains around Crater Lake? Since when are there mountains in Kansas?

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

Posterbation.

LOL now thats pretty damn funny...

 

[Brainiac 8]

Also, how could you not like the respect Reeves recieved at the end of the episode with the Reeves foundation ad with Annette? A great nod to the original Supes!

 

[dpm07]

I loved this episode!!

Definitely some of the best work yet by the cast, IMO.

The guy who played Aquaman was really good. I really like the allusions he made to his heritage, and that line about swimming with the seals was great!

Arthur Curry's slight surfer talk didn't bother me a bit. It made sense because of his age, and besides, what made Aquaman the character he is was captured in this episode.

I was liking Milton Fine (Braniac) a lot. The dialogue between he and Clark, and Clark and Lex for that matter was awesome. It's really cool to see how things are unfolding. I love it when they make references to various comic lore, and the history of the character in the dialogue. I look forward to these things in every episode, and for those of us that like it, we really received it in this episode.

Aqua was definitely one of the better episodes. It's liked they have really upped their game this season. It shows, and I appreciate their efforts.

 

[celldog]

Didn't the guy playing Aquaman kinda' look like a beefed up "Eddie Haskel" from Leave It To Beaver ???

The man's name was REEVE, leave off the S for

LOL! Yeah.. he did a little.
(except the guy who played Eddie had a bit more range. )

HA!! "Gee, you look radiant today Mrs. Cleaver."

 

[Immortalfire]

These one-word episode titles are getting annoying..with the vampires next week, is it going to be called "Suck"?

Great show with Aquaman btw.

lol..well I didn't really like Run, but I thought it was a good episode, I liked Aqua better only because there were other storylines going on..I loved the introduction to Prof. Fine, and the scenes between Clark and Lex..I felt like Aqua moved the characters forward more. I've gone over it a million times, trying to think of why I didn't enjoy Run, and I think I'm just not that keen on storylines that don't focus on Clark, selfish and perhaps slightly obsessive I know, but I didn't care enough about the Flash kid to watch an episode about him, as good as he was. But like I said, it was a well done episode, just not one of my personal favorites. And Aqua will probably one of my lesser favorites too, but I still enjoyed it more than Run.
