[Season 7] Smallville


Recommended Posts

screw all you moaners about the writing and acting, i'll watch it till the end. Reason? because its good tv.

it has a good combination, excellent musical score + great action scenes + decent visuals + good acting + interesting plots each episode. smallville ftw.

If you read any of MY posts, you'd know that I had been defending Smallville too, but I am really very Unpleased with the way the writers handled the latest episode by Clark saying "I Don't Care about Lex" after he said "I am going to Stop Lex" just a week ago... I mean who the hell write like this?

What is Clark Kent to be like that? A Moron?

That speech by Clark really ****ed me off.

i also agree, i think the writers are just loosing their steam in trying to drag it on this long. Also i think part of it is the CW network, for one their commercial time is ridiculously long and too frequent so im wondering if money might be an issue now for the show as well.

Next year better be worth it for the last season

edit: If lex finds out clarks secret wont that ruin the show or at least the story?

I honestly don't remember when Clark said that but couldn't he have meant it as "I don't care about Lex". You know? Sort of like "I don't care if he dies" or something.

Well, this has been happening since Season 1. In one episode they say on thing (like the Lana/Clark forever-ongoing-arc), and the next episode, they magically change their mind.

Great show though, cannonballed Season 3 on saturday/sunday. All 23 episodes.

Smallville's Future! - MAJOR NEWS!!!

NO Lex in Season 8.... Edit: At least not as a series regular I guess guest spot is possible... sorry about that.

UPDATED 5/1/08: Michael Rosenbaum will not be returning as a series regular for Season 8. Negotiations are continuing to try and bring Allison Mack back next year. Kristin Kreuk will be back for at least part of Season Eight.

Tom Welling, Aaron Ashmore, Laura Vandervoort, and Erica Durance are all still said to be signed and expected to return for the show's eighth year. John Glover was also still on contract, though we saw from "Descent" that there was a change in plans.

Two new characters have been announced for Season 8:

Doomsday: In season eight, Clark will face his ultimate challenge with the appearance of the legendary, unstoppable destroyer Doomsday, who appears on ?Smallville? for the first time. As comic book fans know, Doomsday is notorious for being the only character in the DC Comics universe to have killed Superman.

Female villain: Doomsday won?t be Clark?s only nemesis in the upcoming season. The executive producers are tight-lipped about a new female villain they will be introducing, but they can say she will be familiar to many fans and will set her sights on Clark in ways Lex never could. Intelligent, brilliantly manipulative, and dangerously sinister, our gorgeous new villain has one more weapon in her arsenal: Her mutual attraction with Clark may prove to be as deadly as kryptonite for him.

Not sure if this is needed to be spoiler tagged, but just to be safe...

I LOVE the Clark/Lois moments!:D! :D

The writing was often senseless still, but overall I LIKED last night's episode.

I just wish those writers respect us Audiences intelligence :(re... :(

I don't get how the heck they can bring in Doomsday just like this. I mean, Brainiac I can see as he was easily beaten most of the time for Supes. But Doomsday? He killed Superman for christ sake! Ugh. Wanna be he's gonna be portrayed as some angst ridden teener? And wait, if Clark is going to take on Doomsday, WILL HE LEARN TO FREAKEN FLY FINALLY? How could he possibly take on Doomsday without all his powers? Bleh.

Bye bye Lex, gonna miss ya!

The alt. universe stuff was great. And it was AWESOME to see Clark Kent Ace Reporter - with glasses and all! And a nice moment with Lois as well. Thank god they will be moving to a Clark/Lois relationship now. If I had to take anymore of Lana I'd gouge my eyes out I think.

Great climax with Brainiac. Loved the "there's no yellow sun to charge you, human" line, heh.

Btw, anyone else notice the nuclear detonation scene, was oddly like (read: exactly like) that scene from Terminator 3. In fact, the launch scene, except for the foreground shot of Smallville looked like one of the launch scenes from T3 also....

I really enjoyed the episode, good too see a progression in the relationship between lois and clark as yo'll said, and also bringing it back to the original superman series and movies the reporter with glasses on loved it! Was a BIG fan of the original superman series!

And obvs brainiac isn't exactly dead because of what happened to kara at the end, right?

Ditto. I also thought of the nuclear detonation scene from the Battlestar Galactica miniseries.

what was happening to kara at the end? i don't get it?

My guess is, it's Brainiac :) Note how he was laughing his butt off when she was gonna drop the big rock thingie on him? Yeah, Brainiac don't go that easy, not even in the comics heh.

Don't forget also, when he first showed up in season 5 (or 6?) he was just a black liquid thing. He coulda "melded" with Kara or something. Besides, if you read any of the spoilers for the season finale, you know what happens to Kara by then :D

    • So its a museum of AI prompts? Boring
    • This one baffles me...so they are creating a museum based around the Ship of Theseus? A museum is supposed to preserve things. It doesn't really work if the conversation goes, "I gazed upon Starry Night the other day, the colours were beautiful!" "Yeah...I didn't expect Godzilla to show up, though." Create a building devoted to displaying AI work, fine. The rainforest idea sounds interesting and I would consider visiting if they pay me a few bucks. But don't call it a museum...
    • >defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool It is not. It is the inhuman artist replacement. The human writing the prompt is the employer/manager requesting the work product of the artist -- a supervisory/descriptive job that doesn't carry with it any rights to the copyright of that work product at all. And since AI is not human itself, it can't gain copyright for anything it is asked to regurgitate or hallucinate, so it can't transfer that copyright to the employer/manager/human who asked for the output. This was all legally reaffirmed last year. So, no, while there are AI tools, AI slopware generation is NOT a "tool" in the legal definition of that word.
    • As long as i get to play GTA 6 before it ends 😂😂
    • Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles by Ivan Jenic Image via: Google Ever since AI image generators went mainstream, the debate over whether AI-generated art is real art hasn't let up. Those who don’t consider AI to be art say that if a machine does the creating and anyone can prompt it, there’s no skill involved, and therefore no art is produced. The counter-argument is equally persistent, as defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool, and that every major technological breakthrough, like the camera or the computer, was met with the same skepticism before eventually being accepted as a legitimate creative medium. Google’s position in this debate is clear. Which is no surprise, as the company is investing billions in AI infrastructure. And now, in efforts to encourage people to use its AI even more, Google is opening Dataland on June 20, which it's calling the world's first AI arts museum. Located inside The Grand LA, a Frank Gehry-designed building in Los Angeles, the museum spans 25,000 square feet. The museum is built around a collaboration with media artist Refik Anadol, who has worked with Google since 2016. The inaugural exhibition is called Machine Dreams: Rainforest, and is powered by an AI model trained on “an extensive dataset of the natural world.” It generates 1.2 billion pixels of visuals in real time and reacts to visitors dynamically. The space also generates soundscapes, real-time emotion sensing, and algorithmically produced scents. Image via: Refik Anadol Studio / Google Google says that the museum is powered by its Gemini models, which run on Google Cloud. So, everything is generated inside one of Google’s AI data centers and is streamed to the museum. Alongside the museum opening, Google Arts & Culture is funding an AI Artist Residency, giving four artists $25,000 grants each, along with mentorship from Refik Anadol Studio and access to Google's machine learning tools. Their work will be shown at Dataland and on the Google Arts & Culture website later this year. Google’s AI museum will undoubtedly initiate a fired-up debate on social media, and we can’t wait to see the first reactions. Via: Smithsonian Magazine
