Of Angels and Devils: Symbolic imagery in SMALLVILLE

AgentPat said:
Yeah, that's the scene. That's pretty good, but there's an even *better* one as the camera pulls around behind the ship and you see Clark in the background. That's the one I was thinking about. I'll cap it tonight. :D

Either way though, see what I mean about it being rather obvious? LOL ;)


couldnt find it here. DTS must only cap every 5 seconds or so...

Does anyone have a cap of when Clark rescues Ryan from the garbage truck in Stray?

Clark has a halo there....
 
looked for that one, but DTS's caps pnm Season 1 are sparse. I'll try to dl that ep later and cap it myself..
 
I suppose the whole Superman mythos does kind of poke fun at the whole Christianity affair. I kind of like that.

I'll take CK over JC as my personal saviour ANY DAY!! oh yeah..

I hate admitting to stuff like this 'cause it's gotten me in WAY deep trouble in public forums in the past, but.... :up: :D

Well I think this qualifies as heavenly....

from DTS

Yes, that is.

Too bad that one shot with Clark in the fog of tear gas in Transference isn't very clear....

That's a perfect example of the Angel symbology.

grr.. I tried to post a link to the audio clip, but it won't work. Sneaky Amazon bastards.
 
I love this thread. That's one of the things I love about Smallville is looking for hidden things. I found a couple things, not nearly as good as the previous ones. I never even saw the connection in the telephone pole. In Accelerate during the frozen rain Emily's grave has an angel on it and Clark is shown in the same frame with just him and the angel. In Jinx, in the lockeroom. I know everyone has commented on the Red Zone and the shoes, but in the very beginning, there is a ray of light coming down and the way Clark is posed, it looks like he is praying with the ray of light striking him. Its quite nice.
 
Looks like Lex is getting in on the Jesus poses:

I liked this one of Bad Lex fropm the other night, there was an even better one where he's standing directly in front og the fire but DTS didnt have a cap..

Tom really does have that angelic look to him. Especially in the first episode of this season when he had the cape/towel on.

Did you notice Holly Harold was one of the names of peopple called to get their diplomas in Commencement...

They do that stuff all the time and I think it's great.

:up:
 
This is great... I knew this show had great writing/set skills.

The power of positive thinking, such a wonderful tonic.

Now I'll be looking ever ever so closely for these little references, and I have something to justify to my husband why I need to watch an episode repeatedly.
