It doesnt matter that it doesnt follow the canon. Its crap regardless.
Honestly, I don't have a problem with changing aspects from the mythos, taking liberties and whatnot as long as they are
good changes.
I can honestly say most of the liberties that SV has taken have been 'meh' or really bad.
Ex:
- Lois going to highschool and growing up with Clark since S4, being an older sister figure to him for years in Smallville. No way the glasses and reporter disguise would work now.
- Failsday; Davis Bloome. Turning Doomsday into a human and his horrible arc with Chloe.
- the characterization of Lana for seven seasons; leading to her getting super stength, speed, invulnerability and kryptonite power in her final episode. Having her witch storyline tie with the Fortress crystals.
- The 'fake' Jimmy Olsen
- Chloe's overall central importance in everything in the SV universe. Bossing Clark around for years and now, the league.
- Making Lex into a jealous brother figure to Clark who was born into money; there was potential with this one but it was executed so poorly.
- Kara appearing when Clark is still in Smallville, Supergirl being the same age as Clark. That's why they had to write her off the series in such an abrupt manner. Turning Zor-El into a villian who was lusting after Lara was bizarre too.
- SV's Pete Ross.. another fail
- Meteor freaks.. and the 10 million different and contrived affects of Kryptonite exposure.
- Jor-El (being a bastard) and Clark (being Lana obsessed) being reponsible for Jonathan's life being taken
etc.... the list is too long
I hate this whole Red-Blue Blur/The Blur nonsense too. It's just so incredibly lame.
Anyway, none of this stuff will be in the Superman movie, so I suppose it's all moot.
