Yes, I'm aware that Lex isn't supposed to be around next season. Clark can paint a volleyball with Lex's face or something.

Also, I'm leaving this poll open to discussion, but keep in mind that the poll will most likely be deleted in a few weeks to keep the boards tidy. So if you want to have any serious discussion about the topic that you want to have a longer shelf life, it should go in another thread. A new poll will go up next week, too. Feel free to post a suggestion for the next poll in the mod thread.

Vote!

I'm sure we'll see some Cloominess. And that Cloliver is a given. But when you die in each other's arms, there's no coming back from that.

Clex FTW, forever.

What I like about this poll is I can vote my choice, AND vote for recreational orgies too! Well designed, Tennison!

Can we have a poll for a recreational orgy next time?

Chlex ftw!

If recreational orgies were part of Clark's life, why is he so mopey?

Gee, I wonder who will win out of the relatively safe bets.

Heh, it cracks me up that 9 posters want to see Clark have group sex with Lex, Ollie, Doomtender and Brainiac. I voted for Lex, but I also like this option!


Word, CTUN!

I was tempted to vote Nobody under the safe bets. I'd rather Clark end up with Chloe. If they get together too early in Season 8 it may not stick til the end of the series.

I don't think there's a hope in hell of Chloe and Clark ending the show as a couple. I'm not even sure I'd want to see that. But these characters deserve a shot. I won't be satisfied if the series ends before they get it.

Understood Teen Titan, and I feel the same way about recreational orgies. Chloe and Clark on the other hand, I have convinced myself will happen.

I think the real Batman should be on there just because, well it's Christian Bale and TW.

Christian Bale's Batman would seriously look down on SV's Superman and for good reason.

Well pity sex then...an orgy is an orgy ;)

Noo! Don't do it. Don't get my hopes up! It will just make the inevitable disappointment that much worse.

If Lex is dead, Clark can have romantic encounters with his ghost. If he's still alive, they can get together in their seekret hideout in the basement of the Mansion, where they've been meeting all along. The whole 'Lex is EVOL and we fight all the time' thing is just a cover.

How about a Lex-bot? Kinda like Spike's Buffy-bot.

"How about a Lex-bot? Kinda like Spike's Buffy-bot."

This concept has interesting possibilities. How would Clark's Lex-bot behave. I mean, the Buffy-bot was nothing much like the real Buffy, IIRC.

Hmmm. Would the Lex-bot be really evil, because Clark has a perverse attraction to evil he doesn't want to admit? Or would it make speeches like Jonathan because Clark ends up with someone who reminds him of his father?

Or would he just be sexy and giggly and empty-headed because that's the only way Clark could justify his attraction to Lex -- by turning him into a sex object?

Or am I over-thinking all this? :-)))

Chlexark is forever. Because we all know who saved Clark and Lex, and how the three celebrated this.

How about Clark/Clark? Just imagine if Lex had tried to clone Clark or maybe made a copy for everybody who wanted one.

I don't mind Clark/Biz myself - after all, we know Bizarro can luuuve mondo well.

And really he has to come back, right? His end can't be a declaration of undying love for teh pink, right?

I'm down with that! Chloe in a Clex sandwich!

Why, oh why won't the poll let me vote? It keeps telling me I haven't voted against anything. I'm so confused...

Aren't they going to have to find some way to get rid of Chloe by the end of S8? And isn't she dating Jimmy again?

Well, they signed her on for 22 episodes. Guess they're not that interested in ditching her. They could've just cut her off like MR, AOT, JS, etc. (shrug)

Vote for both categories: the likely bets and the longshots



Taken to the Speculation without Spoilers thread.

How about love by the hour? Or maybe a weekly trip to Las Vegas?

I'd be all for that, mobiusklein. Anytime our now-adult Clark can get his drink on and make out with pretty women would get my vote. It's really the only thing that could make this swirling mess worthwhile. (But I never miss an episode...)

Jimmy is irrelevant.

Poor Jimmy, he doesn't get to be a part of the recreational orgy.

Start tossing out ideas for the next poll, if you have them. Otherwise, I might just make up something lame like, "Does the cast have nice nostrils? Yes or No."

In S8, will Chloe:
- return to journalism and the DP
- do some journalism but not return to the DP
- leave journalism behind for superhero hag duty

There's a poll suggestion.

We can expand it to "future job careers for Chloe Sullivan." (Watchtower? Rogue Zombie Maker?)

I like the Chloe one. I also suggest "what would convince you Clark was finally ready to be superman":

Underwear on the outside
Street patroling
Dumping Lana
Getting a job at the planet
mass amnesia


that sort of thing

Once the showrunners realize we hate Davis as DMT, next career choice for The Monster Formerly Known As Doomtender. (Most of my ideas involve career choices I guess.)

Excuses to the public to explain a missing Lex.

Ultimate reason for Clark to move on from Lana. For real. Seriously. No coming back.

How the showrunners need to be punished?

-mauled by grizzly
-terrorized by killer clowns
-a wasp attack
-huge notice in Variety that they should never be hired for any sort of creative project

or we can ask what kind of sexbot Clark or Lex or the other characters would want. Frankly, we know what Lana would want: A Bizarro redux where it's a non-stop humping machine that says "pretty Lana" over and over again.

All good suggestions, but I think I'll go with "Excuses to the public to explain a missing Lex" for the next one.

Can we do this one 3rd, Tennison? I think there is endless comic potential imagining jobs for a seven foot tall monster covered in bone spurs.

I vote Stephen Colbert's anti-bear countermeasure or co-host on the View.

Sure, just remind me when it's time to do the third one.

How about asking which characters from the past people would most like to see return in S8?
