Suit looks like its got a blue shirt collar lol
Facade - 4/21/2011, 3:36 AM
The fortress looks good. I hope they don't change it for MOS.
Crumb - 4/21/2011, 3:38 AM
I don't get it, it's been in the fortress since episode 1 of this season?
SUPERMAN2013 - 4/21/2011, 3:45 AM
seriously,why the [frick] do you people bother coming on a smallville article,I dont bother going on something I dont like just to say I dont like it and let everyone know I dont like it...pointless people
Cross - 4/21/2011, 3:50 AM
So he's wearing the suit thats been worn by brandon routh?

Very cheap!
LEEE777 - 4/21/2011, 3:52 AM


So their just using the SUPERMAN RETURNS suit???

Well thats kinda cheap lol.

Damn shame we have had the BLUE BLUR, SUPER MATRIX and SUPER FLASH GORDON JACKET...

Because it takes away the special moment he does become SUPERMAN coz basically he's worn it already!

Damn CW writers, I miss the original writers oh well...

Fingers crossed with the old crew back a decent finale, I know a little too late but better late than never! : P
LEEE777 - 4/21/2011, 3:57 AM
Well apart from that stupid collar!?? : p
LP4 - 4/21/2011, 3:59 AM
What's the point of this episode teasing us with the suit if he won't even wear the damn thing.
Havok2 - 4/21/2011, 4:01 AM
@superboy91

Who said they didn't like it?
Cross - 4/21/2011, 4:02 AM
WHAT THE [frick] IS UP WITH THE COLLAR?

SHITS GAY!
Spilox - 4/21/2011, 4:03 AM
All the [female dog]ing about the suit aside, lets hope this episode pays some homage to the all-star superman comic.
superman7 - 4/21/2011, 4:04 AM
That's retarded. I guess they forgot that last time someone he loved had his powers, (his dad) it gave him a heart attack. I guess that doesn't matter since it happened more than 2 weeks ago. But hey, selective memory is great when writing the shit they produce.

I wonder if they'll give lois a Thriller video jacket so they can do the zombie dance with Michael Jackson... Which would be awesome if Michael Jackson really did come back as a zombie to do thriller.

@ Superboy91:

I really do like some stuff about the show. And i loved the first few seasons and a few select episodes after. But lately it's become a show for the writers (to write 'fun' stuff that teenage girls would watch) than a show for the fans. With the writing staff currently on there, they seem to continuously spit in the face of my favorite character.

Have you seen the indianna jones south park episode? That's the way i feel.

superman7 - 4/21/2011, 4:10 AM



that's the same thing smallville did
answer - 4/21/2011, 4:14 AM
I'm annoyed they have used the Returns suit too but you never know they may have just used that one upto now as they hadn't made the suit when it was first shown at the start of the season and they've just stuck with it until teh finale and we might get a new suit.
For those mentioning the darker blue on the collar it is probably just a certian material used in the design to make the cape sit right and isnt actually seen.
SuperSomething616 - 4/21/2011, 4:54 AM
Guys that isnt a collar....I've seen a picture of Brandon Routh during shooting of Superman Returns when he doesnt have his cape on...what looks like a blue collar is actually where the cape attaches to the suit...when Clark dons ths suit it wont have that collar...
marvel72 - 4/21/2011, 5:05 AM
he's not gonna put that on,its been there all this time & his avoid it like the plague.

if he wears it,it'll be for the last shot or scene.

@ grif

well said,i couldn't of said it better myself.
LEEE777 - 4/21/2011, 5:05 AM
ShadowVoyd @ ; D

SuperSomething616 @ I think your right dude, still pity CW destroyed Smallville when they took over from Warner Bros TV!

But good eye! ; )
LEEE777 - 4/21/2011, 5:08 AM
Yo @ MARVEL72!

Lol! ; P


Yup I don't get why ppl have been thinking he's gonna wear the suit b4 the last shot???

The plan has always been last minute of the last scene from the very start!

Not gonna change it now although they've ruined it with all the stupid MATRIX, FLASH GORDON costumes... oh well.

Just not gonna be as sweet as it would have been coz basically hes already worn the 'S'!

Wez - 4/21/2011, 6:05 AM
It's not a collar on the suit. It's the velcro the cape attaches to!
tracy - 4/21/2011, 6:24 AM
This article is enjoyable to read and aside form that this is also informative one. I also found some relevant topics here that are very useful for my research..
You really have a good point of sharing this one and this could be a big help for all of us.

@BCat

Yeah I hated that neck line on the suit in Superman Returns. They did go cheap by making him wear brandon routh suit(hope they washed it lol) They could have made improvements to it, Such as making the S bigger, fixing the neck line, and making the cape look less like a fruit roll-up (also put the gold s back on the cape.) Those changes would make the suit look better.
UltimaRex - 4/21/2011, 7:18 AM
...

...

You mean to tell me the CW can't at the very least release a pic of Welling LOOKING AT THE DAMN SUIT!?! Look at it Tom. At least LOOK AT THE SUCKING THING. It's given you a job for ten years, a cheerleader TV series(!), an army of adoring fans and more money than you will ever spend at their expense.

You don't have to put it on. I think we all know that's not going to happen now.

But at least LOOK at it.
Lexatron93 - 4/21/2011, 8:41 AM
I think everyone should stop moaning and get ready for some rad episodes from now :D
naterator - 4/21/2011, 8:43 AM
ummmm....how is this new to you people? we have all known it was the RETURNS suit from the moment that LOIS opened the box...remember?
Nova2012 - 4/21/2011, 9:04 AM
So Lois gets his powers for a day?....What do you want to bet that she will know how to fly immediately (just like every Kryptonian and every super-villian that can leech power).
LEEE777 - 4/21/2011, 9:13 AM
ShadowVoyd @ Lmao CW has destroyed what was once an amazing well written show with bad writing and bad writers!

I know some stuck around... but not very long annd who can blame them with the direction Smallville was going in.

Season 8 to now = Not very good!

Season 1 to 7 = Gold!


Even WELLING could play farm boy Kent but is a no hoper at playing Super Matrix blue blur Flash Gordon boy! ; P

DURANCE shows him up on every line together!

Like I keep saying... its called SMALLVILLE for a reason, once it turned METROPOLIS and put in a lame DOOMSDAY it all went downhill!

Shame but true.


MARVEL @ Cool bro!

M.I.A Heh heh!

An sweet man enjoy!!!

Cool Graphic novels too!
ohsoserious - 4/21/2011, 9:14 AM
Grif os such a c.u.n.t
LEEE777 - 4/21/2011, 9:17 AM
I only say this as I'm a Smallville fan, it just used to be so much better than it is now!

Still again, with the originals back (well some of them) hopefully we'll get gold for the finale!
Maia87 - 4/21/2011, 9:17 AM
I HATE the fact that Lois knows already EVERYTHING about Clark's life...He doesn't even wear the Superman suit yet and she already knows about the Fortress...What a lame version of the Superman mythology...
LEEE777 - 4/21/2011, 9:21 AM
Maia87 @ EXACTLY more CW Bullshit!


LOIS should not know about Clark till he's been Superman a few years!

CW is the small screen version of FOX's Marvel movies!


HOLLYWOOD strikes again!
GUNSMITH - 4/21/2011, 9:21 AM
AFTER SMALLVILLE PEOPLE WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT WONDERWOMAN..
LEEE777 - 4/21/2011, 9:25 AM
GUNSMITH @ Hopefully not...

At least WW is not at CW so it has some hope of being half good dude! ; D
LP4 - 4/21/2011, 10:08 AM
Actually I might be one of the few here who doesn't really mind the collar type look all that much :P

I think it looks kinda cool actually! It looks like the 'Returns' costume but a bit better...the cape material looks different, lighter and not as heavy and the collar thing kinda sets it apart. I don't know...I guess I don't care much because I know he won't even wear it. =P
Loadmaster - 4/21/2011, 10:11 AM
Man of Steel = Blue-collar job?
superman7 - 4/21/2011, 10:15 AM
@ Nova2012:

Didn't she fly already as isis? lol. I'll flip a shit if she's the one who teaches him how to fly.
JosePetrelli12 - 4/21/2011, 10:48 AM
I cant wait....
therj00 - 4/21/2011, 11:16 AM
I loved Smallville from seasons 1-6, 7 was easily the worst season of any show I've ever watched, 8 and 9 the only cool episodes was one finale and the JSA, it sucks the show's ending before they get a shot to bring in new writers,and turn the show around into greatness again.
DCwanabe - 4/21/2011, 11:38 AM
Hoorray the suit, with as much attention as they give it in this episode I figure the chances of welling wearing it are improving. All we need is the fight from season 6 combat, but with suit and smoke monster.

Of course haters will just bash the way he wears the suit no matter what.

At least they can take their hating out on wonderwoman once it comes out. I think her mole is will be my favorite character, UNCALLED FOR.

Come on, we have known this is the returns suit since the beginning of this season SURPRISE, and the whole point is that he can not wear it until he is ready to become superman, which according to haters is never, dammed if he does dammed if he does not. HaHa nothing makes you guys happy, I love it, the acidic environment of nerd-town is palpable as usual.
JaySin420 - 4/21/2011, 12:07 PM
Wow, some of you are truly retarded.

How could it possibly be cheap for them use the costume from Superman Returns? lol the costume was perfect and that movie cost like half a billion dollars!

The only people that should be against this suit are Brandon Routh fans, cause Welling is going to make him look like a lanky goofball by comparison.
nld3 - 4/21/2011, 12:17 PM
Its a shame they turned the Smallville KRYTON tech to look like Superman Returns and now its not going to connect with MOS. Which it shouldn't have anyway. I was so up set when they started to change the tech from a fresh new look to look like Superman & SRs.
TheBurnSays - 4/21/2011, 12:28 PM
HELLO!!! THAT'S NOT A COLLAR, THAT'S VELCRO. YOU KNOW, TO HOLD THE CAPE IN PLACE...CAUSE IT'S A MOVIE PROP...DUH!
Philvis - 4/21/2011, 12:44 PM
I think it was just flat out laziness on the show's part. The SR suit is definitely a weaker suit. There is no reason they couldn't have custom made a suit for the show, especially considering the fact it is going to be a once and done type shot. It's not like they have to fabricate dozens of them. If you can buy a very nice handmade replica suit for $1000 on ebay, there is no reason the show couldn't have had one made especially for Welling. Lazy...
metalliverb - 4/21/2011, 1:24 PM
I don't even care about the suit. The bigger issue to me is that we're only a few episodes away from the finale and we're still getting these pointless filler episodes, just like last week's episode, Kent, and most likely tomorrow's episode. I guess Darkseid has decided to give taking over the world a rest for a while. The characters sure don't seem to worried about it.
mgeoff88 - 4/21/2011, 1:34 PM
My biggest complaints about the SR suit; was the darkened colors(red and yellow) and the S.

Needless to say, I'm not a fan of the suit. But I'm kind of glad they went with a modern suit, instead of the same basic tights.
UltimaRex - 4/21/2011, 1:45 PM
@JaySin420 & Philvis. It's not like he's going to wear it...
