He just shaved them. What is your narrow definition of 'girl's legs' and are cooties involved so Jimmy has just sullied himself as icky poo and unmanly?

I forgot about drag queen Jimmy. They better do it on SV next season and Chloe can say that he makes a hot woman as a joke. Nice!

No, no cooties involved. I have no problem with a man dressing as a woman. However, that artist has drawn Jimmy with the shapely, slender, legs of a woman.

It must have been an in joke, yes?

The test would be did the sameartist ever draw Jimmy's legs bulgie and musclely/hairy but then suddenly change up to smooth slender when Jimmy was going out in drag? Otherwise alot of men have slender legs, not majorly toned or defined, so a smooth leg shave and nyons would make their legs seem 'feminine' because that is the social norm of what supposedly is how woman legs should look. Personally, I'm not into being hairy or attracted to hairy, but without razors many women especial from key ethnic groups, like the men are fairly hairy and have toned muscled legs if they are fit.

Anyway cartoon Jimmy is only a photog and not in-shape so I can easily see him with hot sexy legs when shaved smooth. ANyway the whole concept makes me laugh seeing the phrase 'girly legs' because my mind then remembers the Sinfeld episode where he wouldn't date this woman because she had 'MAN HANDS'. Heh. I used to work at UPS and my hands were really strong and looking at them, I've got man hands! LOL

Since she's all over the Media thread I'm assuming Supergirl being on the show next year isn't a true spoiler. What are the chances the female Project Aries Soldier Lex focused on in the finale turns out to be Kara El and the hair just looked dark because the lighting was bad? Maybe Lex already knew there was something "special" about this "body" LuthorCorp interests had found (which turns out to be in suspended animation) and as a result he had high hopes for her performance once she was infused with blood from the Phantom host.

I was secretly wondering the same thing.

So was I...In fact this is the only plausible way they could do it, but since we know that she catches the attention of Lex we know that he has no idea who she is.

Kara being the long haired soldier is plausible, but it's not the only plausible explanation for her sudden appearance.

As they said it's the dam breaking that wakes her up, I'm imagining something like this: Her ship is lodged partially underground, maybe completely, somewhere in the vicinity of the dam. The dam breaks, quake jostles the ship, lights come on, suspended animation is disengaged and voila, Kara wakes up.

I'd almost go for her lodged in the dam but not in Lex's vending machine of doom.

If she was one of the Lex's soliders of doom, then how are they going to get around the issue of her living with Clark and being his cousin? I assume Lex would know she wasn't of this earth. And I know she's not going to in hiding.

She couldn't be the girl in the dam otherwise Lex would seriously qualify for Wile E. Coyote soopergenius villany.

One would assume he would do medical tests on the unconscious girl, discover her Alien DNA and use that instead of importing a very hostile and active gut ripping phantom.

And the Phantom that somehow knew Clark was Kryptonian should have sensed it, unless he was a particularly picky Phantom.

Dread, dude, have you read one of your recaplets recently? If anything I figure the fact it would make Lex look like an idiot means it's more likely that soldier was Kara rather than less. But that's just my in my decidedly jaded yet humble opinion.

I thought Dread meant it was too smart for Lex by the Wile E. Coyote comment.

If this show somehow goes on for an 8th season, what do you think are the chances of them trying to resurrect Clexana/Lexana as an attempt to drag out the melodrama? Logically, the possibility should be dead, but logically the Clana should have been dead after any of the first six times they broke up so you never know.

They could even do it in a somewhat in-character (though still horrible) way. Lana doesn't seem to mind when her love interests mistreat her was long as they tell her the truth. Or tell her what she wants to hear. Sure, she thinks Lex put fake baby hormones in her, and she hates him. But she hated him after Commencement, too, and look how that turned out.

What if she comes back from the "dead" and Lex shows her that she was really pregnant, but with a monster mutant baby. He says something like he was giving her treatments to try to make the baby normal but it ended up causing a miscarriage. She whispers angrily about how he should have been honest with her from the start. But he cries about how it was all his fault because of his meteor infection and he thought she would hate him forever and she's the center of his universe wahhhhhh! He'll even give her her own team of supersoldiers to protect her, take her shopping, brush her hair, etc.

Lana finds this prospect appealing, because Clark is ignoring her as he goes off saving people, the big meanie. Of course, then the next episode she'll berate Lex and cuddle up with Clark, and the next episode after that she'll berate Clark and cuddle up to Lex, and no one will call her on her fickle ways. But I could see it happening if the Goughlar think that's how they should drag things out.

If they get S8, there will definitely be something to drag down the second half of S7. Combine that with MR likely bowing out after this year, last season or no, then I think it's safe to say Clexana of some kind will be in full force for the Epic Conclusion.

Chances of resurrecting Clexana 100%, with or without an 8th season.


Mmmm... I thought so too at first but then the picky phantom comment threw me.

Wile E. Coyote is known for planning evil plots that ending up backfiring on himself. Lex having Kara in the dam as part of his legion would be one in the same...a plot that would backfire on him. That's the way I understood it.

I know. I know.

As jaded as I am, a part of me will always say "That is so stupid, random, and character destroying that they can't possibly go there."

<Sigh>

I need a drink.

I totally agree I can see Lana recieving the divorce papers and telling Chloe that she wanted to sign them but something won't let her let go of Lex as of now and a few hours later telling her that that she still loves Lex since he did so much to have her at her side and that Clark never used her power to make her his wife...and then the Clexana goes again and I shoot myself!

I can only get behind this if Lex tricks her into believing he still loves her, and then simply throws her on a deserted island, preferebly with cannibalistic inhabitants.

Annulment. Lana would never be tainted by a divorce.

She's also too pure and good to take tainted Luthor money.

Man, that's gonna piss me off. I hadn't thought about it, but you guys are right, she will probably get out of this mess with a simple annulment. I wonder if she'll take some of Lex's money, though. I think we'll get our answers when we see her in a brand new, expensive car next season.

Maybe it will come out that Helen, his first wife, isn't really dead and just instantly make the "marriage" to Lana null and void.

Wait, Helen's dead?

I think she's presumed dead, since she jumped off the plane in the middle of nowhere. They never said one way or the other. I'd be shocked if the Goughlar remembers Helen existed at all.

Lana will get an annulment based on the lack of consummation. Or they won't mention it at all, which is sort of what I'm expecting.

Lana will get an annulment while Lex is in jail awaiting trial for her murder. And it will never occur to anyone that the bride filing for annulment is kind of proof that she's alive. Lana will refuse any Luthor money, but she won't get a job and she'll be able to afford a penthouse apartment, drugs (for when she's depressed), and airplane tickets to Paris for when she and Nell need some bonding time.

??
They had sex that's how she (and he) thought she was pregnant. What's the definition of consummation than having sexual relations after marriage to prove the partnership?

webster - 2 : to make (marital union) complete by sexual intercourse

I think she never had sex with him again after marriage remember the desperate attemp of Lex to light candles to set the mood... I wouldn't blame you if you didn't since I wish I could erase that pathetic scene out of my head.

Still, once is enough. She can hardly argue she never had sex with him when everyone knew she was supposedly pregnant.

But it wouldn't surprised me if the "revirginization" progresses to the point where the writers forget (or hope the audience forgets) they actually had sex at all.

Everyone has to remember that one of Clark's special abilities is "telling his secret" to Lana.....there's real power in that. This will cause the sun to shine, rainbows to form, birds to sing and the revirginization of Lana.....she'll come back to a level playing field with Chloe....she'll have strength of character and somehow appear like the real heroine of the story....

Actually, Lana does have several valid grounds for annulment under the law. Fraud, Past/Present Condition, Force and Fear are all grounds for annulment. Force and Fear she might not be able to prove due to Clark's secret. However, she should be able to do Past or Present Condition, which is basically marrying due to a specific condition. In Lana's case, a pregnancy. However, since that pregnancy was false, it creates sufficient justification for annulment.

Not that I expect SV to bother with any of this. I'm thinking the Wizards will just grant her one in Offscreensville. IMO

There's that, but I think that as far as annulments go, only consummation after the marriage counts. But yes, she has other grounds for annulment, too, chief among them "I was too stupid to listen to everyone including myself!"

I'd be really shocked if she didn't file for a divorce and take half his money. Of course, then she might have to explain the faking my own death idea, but since it's pretty rare that anyone in Smallville is held accountable for felonies, the cops would probably forget about it.

Or it'll be waved away under the "I was in fear for my life" defence.

I forgot they had the surprisingly unspeakable sex before marriage and the marriage soon after pregnancy was the reason to make her an honest woman. I was so caught up annoyed and pissed off about the baby arc that the wedding episode placement was rather late and I kept assuming, married. nevermind the bollocks

I have just read something that just kills me:

It's an article about how Chloe might be Lena Thorul...

I don't know how to feel about this theory. I mean, it would explain how the writers keep claiming they have big plans for Chloe. It would also add tension to Chloe/Lex scenes and Chloe and Clark's friendship. It would also explain why they focus on a character who, though the most compelling on the show for me (something that owes more to AM's skills than anything else), was never in the mythos.

But... I just don't want it. I hope it's not what the writer's have up their sleeve. I kind of like reading Chlex fic sometimes and I always found their interactions a lot sexier (as they're both so intelligent) than any of the Lex/Squirrelly scenes. If this ends up being Chloe's destiny, then *shudders.* No more Chlex fic for me.

I just don't know...

That writer owes jwm royalities for the first season of Castville.Clearly, this person did not watch Transference.I wish I could forget last season as easily as the Smallville police department. They make the Sunnydale cops look like Jason Bourne.

Over in Smallville Merchanidise, KatieFlirth brought in an article on Season 6 DVD sales for SV and they are very good. I'd say Season 8 is nearly in the bag. The industry is just catching up to these TV show DVDs and they are extremely high profit for the studios. Prison Break was reported to have gotten a third season based heavily on the strength of Season 1 DVD sales and international appeal.

So, what does this have to do with anything? IMO it means they will lean towards a two-year mentality rather than lean towards wrapping things up in Season 7.

I read an article a while back that makes the case for season eight a little more interesting. On the WB, Smallville never made money on the original broadcasts; revenue from commercials was less than the cost to produce and advertise the show. It made money on the dvd sales and syndication. Since the WB (studios) produced the show, the WB (merchandising) sold the dvds, the WB (television rights) got the syndication money and the WB (network) showed Smallville everything worked out fine; production costs were more than covered by the other revenue streams.

The CW is another story. The WB and CBS split costs and the profits for the shows - but just the broadcasts on the CW network itself. All of the other revenue streams (dvd sales, syndication rights) belong to the studio that produced the show (WB), not a common cash supply. Suddenly, Smallville starts to look a lot less attractive, compared to the various cheap reality shows.

I think we will see a season four mentality - Al and Miles will try to get all their ducks in a row, in case this is the last season. If they get a reprieve? Then goodbye character growth, hello stall tactics and mind whammie episodes.

Season 7 has a different dynamic than S4, we're near the end of the journey, and with Clark getting closer to his roots and this being MR last season, it has this "ending of a period feeling", that could translate into the ending of the series. The main characters are reaching their "destiny", Clark is closer of becoming \S/, Lex is getting to the "evil level", Lois working in the DP, etc. Season 8 would be a HUGE mistake, specially without MR and AM, I hope Tom decides to stop at S7, without him there's no show, and it would be the best decision for him to move on with his career before he gets the "CK forever stamp" from the showbiz.

Finally, some caps from a new trailer, thanks to Mr. Video:
Posted at KryptonSite, of course! ;)

Thanks for the caps Craig. Here is the actual trailer. Enjoy.

Full length 30-second version has been posted: here

According to Trish over DTS:



And from ManOfSteel87 on Ksite

EDIT: gobatara beat me to it.

I didn't realize it was a new trailer til like the last 5 seconds.

Thanks for that heads up about the trailer.

That's a voice over. It could be Chloe or Lois or Lana for all we know. Finally, a cool thing about Chloe though!

OK, before I believe that the show has Clana break up before 2008, please tell me what the heck Lana would be doing?

What the heck? Why show this at some random time on Tuesday when you haven't shown it to your audience on Thursday?
Makes more sense to me that you premiere the footage FIRST to your loyal fanbase who would EXPECT something after a rerun of the show and THEN run the spot at random times throughout the week to try and hit new viewers.

Well, at least, something is OUT for the premiere...FINALLY. Just wish I could see it :)

I'm uploading it on Youtube right now. Shit's taking forever!

Well damnit someone did it.

Thanks to Rosey @ KSite

Full Smallville Trailer. (took em long enough)

So that's definitely not Lois who says "Stay with me". It's looks to be the doctor trying to save her.

Also, I have to say how shocked I am that the CW is remembering who the show really is about and actually had a trailer that was all about Clark.
