Smallville Producer on the Justice League and Plans For Season 10

First and o yea im psyched

love this show but if they go with a season10 he needs to be a legit Superman not the blur! he is what? 24 in the show now? he needs to be superman! before him and lois get anymore serious

"It will basically be what we've been doing for five seasons. Slower it is the more we can cash this cow."

MisterUnderhill: Yeah, I almost stopped watching the show after last season but Season 9 has for the most part been excellent! Still wish they'd kill off Chloe though... :P

TYLER: LMAO! C'mon man, its not that bad! ;D Wouldnt you at least like to see him as a small screen Superman?

Hey wait a [frick]ing minute, i posted this same article THREE days ago an i didn't make main??????

And i [frick]ed about with lots of JSA PICS etc for the damn article lol.


Still kudos yours went up @ JOSH. ; )

The second part of this season is going to be sick. He will make a good Superman on the show but i think id have to see him with some better lines before i would wanna see him as Supes in a movie.

i feel like ive heard this same exact bullshit for the past 3 years of this show

brianj22 - That listing is accurate for the JLA cartoon, but I STRONGLY recommend that you check out the old JL of A issues from 1960 - 1984, even if they're reprints! It will give you a stronger sense of the TRUE flavor of the Justice League; the Identity Crisis maxi-series did a good job of capturing it!

BTW, I'm not sure that Supergirl will be coming back, as the actress that plays her is now on ABC's "V", which is doing well in the ratings. Also, I don't think Zatanna or Martian Manhunter have officially joined the group yet, and I believe Warner Bros. is STILL restricting the show's producers from using Batman and WW! And Black Canary badly needs to be recast!!

BLack Lightning would work :]

MisterUnderhill: I have, and you know who else played a gay character? Heath Ledger.

Dude, the role was a 5 minute (not even) one in a comedy about two people making a porno, and you're judging him on that?

Routh got a bad script, with a less than competent Superman director. He got a raw deal, and was told to do a Reeves impression by Singer.

And also, we get it already. Every post related to Superman has your new slogan all over it. WE GET THE POINT!

HOLY SH1T @ Brianj !!!! ; D

UNDERHILL @ Yeah ive got the DVD cool comedy!!

JOSH @ Im sorry man but BRANDON ROUTH is ten times the actor of JENSEN ACKLES and you know it!! ; D

Bwahahhahhahahhahha!!

Well, the only thing (I assume) you've seen Routh in Josh is Returns, where he had a bad script and a bad director to work with, and Zack and Miri, where he had a cameo.

Personally, Routh was great in Returns. The script/Singer called for a Reeves impression, and Routh did what they asked. He was great as both Clark and Superman, even though he didn't have enough solid scenes to work with, and he was written/directed to be a Superman that we didn't want.

And don't give me the "he would have shone through the bad script if he was a good actor!" thing. So, by that logic, Christian Bale is a bad actor for Equilibrium, Malcolm McDowell is a bad actor for Tank Girl, and yes, CHRISTOPHER REEVES is a bad actor for Superman 4.

We didn't want another Reeves performance, but we got one because of Singer and the script. If he was given a solid script and a good director (JJ Abrams) then he would do even better than in Returns.

Welling is the definition of wooden acting, and has not only managed to make Clark unlikeable as f*ck, but annoying as f*ck to match that. Also, he's not even enthusiastic about the role either, he's never talking about how great the role is, hell, it only took him about 8 years to take the trip to Comic-Con for the fans of his show. Routh, whenever asked about returning (pun intended) as Supes, always gives an enthusiastic response and says he would love to come back.

Until anyone can give me a better choice than Routh, I stand by him as my choice for Superman. So yeah.

TYLER: I dont think that Welling would be a better choice than Routh and you're completely right with pretty much every point you make! Despite that I still think a new actor is needed if the franchise is going to have a fresh start! Im not sure WHO exactly at the moment but once I've finished working on my Punisher Fan Cast I'll start my Superman one, lol!

i think green lantern will appear after seeing the ring in the trailer. if wonder woman shows up it will just 'another person who can fly, just because clark can't'. batman won't. i don't think they have ever even mentioned gotham city in nine seasons.

i can't remember what happened to zatanna in the show, i thought she disappeared somehow. smallville is pretty terrible when it comes to magic heroes and villains though, they make them REALLY campy!

martian manhunter may appear, but they made him lose his powers flying clark to the sun to heal him in a previous season, didn't they?

samd577, There was an episode that involved Oliver, Lex and a few other richies. One unidentified rich boy got into a limo and said he had to get back to Gotham... (At this point I was on the edge of my seat saying is that Bruce Wayne? Is that Bruce Wayne???)Then the car blew up and I decided that it in fact was not Bruce wayne.

MisterUnderhill: So, if you think Welling is as wooden as you say Routh is, why is it that you have that manip of Welling as Superman as your avatar?

Regarding the "welcome to your world thing", I'm not the one saying the same exact thing every post about Routh/Superman. You are. I am not defending teabag or Lee, and you make a valid point by mentioning them, even though I never mentioned them or was defending them. It gets pretty redundant to see the same line repeated over and over again, in the same article no less.

I already explained to you about Routh's performance, how he was TOLD to act like Reeves, and how you're judging him on a cameo in a comedy about pornos.

You seemed to have totally ignored that, so I'll say it again:

The script/Singer called for a Reeves impression, and Routh did what they asked. He was great as both Clark and Superman, even though he didn't have enough solid scenes to work with, and he was written/directed to be a Superman that we didn't want.

And don't give me the "he would have shone through the bad script if he was a good actor!" thing. So, by that logic, Christian Bale is a bad actor for Equilibrium, Malcolm McDowell is a bad actor for Tank Girl, and yes, CHRISTOPHER REEVES is a bad actor for Superman 4.

MisterUnderhill-Thanks! It seems like everyone has the same excuse, Routh was bad because of the script/directer, know one want to addmit it was just a POOR CASTING CHOICE, from the word go he was wrong for the character. And Singer was just a moron telling Routh to "do you're best REEVES impression"
I can see Welling being SUPERMAN on the small screen
or as superman in a JSA/JLA spin-off. But I think we need a WAY BETTER ACTOR to portray supes in a new movie
IF THERE IS EVER A NEW MOVIE!! LOL
