BvS How Much is Smallville The Blueprint For Zack Synder's Universe

[Joeblo]

i want to start off by saying that i watched all 10 seasons,
Going by all the creative decisions with mos2 especially
Jesse Eisenberg, it feels like the movie version of smallville, remember smallville had all those superhero cross overs at one point

Jesse even looks like Lionel Luthor

Is this a serious question?

 

[Joeblo]

at least point yes

The only reason I ask that is because there's nothing in common between Smallville and MOS, and I think it's fairly obvious that there isn't going to be much in common with BvS.

Oh no not a problem at all, it's a fair question

If you look at Jesse Eisenburg, he will be a young Lex and matched against a young Clark, they may even start off as friends,

If they play that card, then I wish we could've seen in that in MOS flashbacks. That would certainly be an interesting dynamic.

I will say that I think Synder is a huge fan of Smallville, tv series

look at all the connections he put in movie 1


The biggest and most obvious, of course, is that Amy Adams plays Lois Lane. She appeared in the first season episode “Craving” as a girl who could lose weight with Kryptonite diet shakes that make her a bit violent and very, very hungry. Definitely an upgrade of a role for her, no?
- Not more than a minute after we hear the words “This is Dr. Emil Hamilton,” we see Dr. Emil Hamilton… no, not just Richard Schiff, who plays the role in the movie, but also Alessandro Juliani, who played Dr. Emil in several episodes of Smallville. For me, this was the most amusing connection. Why yes, yes it was Dr. Emil Hamilton!

- That guy that Lois gives information to who has the blog, “Glen Woodburn,” is played by Chad Krowchuck. Not only did he date Allison Mack in real life for several years; he was also in the Season 3 episode “Forever” as “Wendell.”
- Characters like Pete Ross and Lang are seen and/or referenced. Thanks to an IMDb listing (we warned you about those), it was thought for all this time that “Whitney Fordman” would be in the movie also, but no: the character in the film, according to the credits, is “Whitney Fordham.” At one point they even make reference to “the Fordham boy.”
- Mackenzie Gray plays Jax-Ur, but on Smallville, he played a Lex Luthor clone, in the Season 10 premiere “Lazarus.”
- There is no Sullivan in the Man Of Steel world, but Smallville has a “Sullivan’s Truck And Tractor Repair” in the movie.
- Blink and you’d probably miss Tahmoh Penikett, who played two different characters on Smallville. Way back in Season 3 he was living dead kid “Vince Davis” in “Resurrection,” and then he played super-soldier Wes Keenan in a recurring part in Season 6. Penikett has made a habit of appearing in DC adaptations, having also appeared in Human Target and Arrow.

- Ian Tracey played bad guy Lincoln Cole in the Season 5 Smallville episode “Mercy.” Here, he is “Ludlow.” (We don’t remember who Ludlow was, either.)
- “Lexcorp” logos are seen in more than one place in Metropolis.
- Smallville has an “Ezra’s Mail Depot.” A reference to Ezra Small?
- The first time we hear the name “Superman” in the movie, does the guy saying it look familiar? He should. He’s played by David Paetkau, who played an abused football player in Season 1′s “Hothead” and then came back years later to play Dan Turpin in “Bulletproof.”

Good post.

Don't forget about Sullivan's.

I'd also add in Lois knowing Clark's identity before suiting up, a point that bothered most people except those familiar with the show. I see Lois and Clark possibly following a dynamic as seen in the Season 11 comic. Also MOS like Smallville was more about the events and development which led to Clark creating both identities of the reporter and the superhero.
