More than one Brainiac!

[Another-One]

I was excited to see there were multiple Brainiacs. It reminds me of JLU. :D

[Summers]

JLU is a far better show ;).

Yeah but JLU is never on now. :(

[Summers]

It's comes back in April to finish it's final season ;) :(. Blame that on Cartoon Network. I would rather have JLU than SV anyday now.

Its hard to argue against the genius of JLU.

I love Braniac, he makes everyone else on the show look retarded.
I do miss the JLU, it was a great show. I think on a regular basis, JLU is better, and theirs more action; but Smallville is deeper and more intresting.

I was so happy to see so much Brainiac in this ep. Great actor, great character and great arc. Much better than DrSwann or the Stones plotlines. Makes me excited for the finale.

[vyperman7]

That was a very cool development.

I personally don't see why this episode got so much hate. I really liked it.

Although next week's episode looks like a total WTF moment. Where do they come up these plots for the Lana episodes?

[Kal-El1138]

Brainiac is the ultimate Superman villain. As much as I love Lex, Brainiac is where it's at in terms of Superman villains for me. And four Brainiac's just makes it even better.

Clark has enough time handling one Brianiac. I wonder how he can handle an army of them.

i really dont think a gangbang with Clark is the plan. The clones are most likely a quick way for Brainiac to collect his "samples".

Is that what he said in the very end? "We need to collect more samples"?????? My loud fiancee started to speak right at that moment and i missed it. If this isn't what he said, could someone tell me what he said and what he meant by it.

You don't see why. Um, how about Clark acting more of a jerk than he already is. How about all the plot holes and inconsistencies, and not to mention the bad acting. Um, it I can't blame the people who did not like it. It was blah.

Maybe because it was the most forced episode ever. It's just a lame attempt at making Clark a man, which is still failing.

Like usual there is always two possiblities. The little boy needs help from both his daddies, or have the most WTH fighting sequence since we know Brainaic can mulitply.

[LexLuthorMetropolis]

I look for him to luck out again because frankly he can't do anything.

The more the characters want to keep calling Clark a man the more I see him as a little boy who will never become be who suppose to be. I seen 15 years olds who are a better man than him.

All he does is toss people all day. I mean has this boy not heard of the word punch especially when you fight people who can take the punch :lol:.

[LexLuthorMetropolis]

Or lead? He dives into the Kryptonite knowing that he can kill himself lol. Clark is still very much a little boy that hasn't grown up.

I actually prefer him tossing a person than punching them cause if clark ever punched someone they'd be dead. Also why is it he's less of a man because he dumped lana? His actions thus far show he's growing up.

[LexLuthorMetropolis]

He's not growning up at all. What they're doing is making a facade growth, that Clark really has not passed. Basically it looks like he is but he hasn't matured beyond Clark of S3. In fact, he continually regresses.

Also due to no continuity between episodes, lack of development, lack of understanding and flat out not understanding the characters themselves.

He's truly a BDA and he's not becoming Superman unless the Superman comes from the movies and knocks some serious sense into him.

Clana is a whole different nightmare of a story, that he really didn't want to give up and clearly he hasn't despite what we're seeing. Their building a jealously arc with Lexana.

I'm specifically talking the punches he could've have used on people who can take the hit:
-Brainiac
-Pa Kent in "Phoenix"
-Jeremiah in "Tailsman"
Not punches on the people who couldn't take it. Plus this already a guy who doesn't feel any guilt when a FoTW dies. He practically was the cataylst for many of their deaths, but does he cared no. The other incarnations of Clark Kent would.

Give me break. Grown up? This is boy who had sex with someone without giving her full disclosure, and then lied to her over and over again. He gets what he deserves. Not to mention to save her he played God and killed his father. He is no man.

I always tape the show since I don't get home from work on Thursdays until after 8:00. I had to replay that part to make sure of what he said so you might not have caught it even if your fiancee was being quiet. Yes, he said samples.

Sums up why the biggest portion of the posters on here call him the Big Dumb Alien. :)

So again because he keeps a secret that makes him less of a man. weird logic. So I guess that means since lana didn't tell him about her helping lex with the ship straight away that makes her less of a women. Also find it funny that he's not man since he played god and killed his father. Yet if he hadn't lana would still be dead and it still would have been his fault since she wouldnt' of died if she hadn't of known his secret and lex didn't pick up on that fact. By that same logic Lionel isn't a man either since he lies through his teeth constantly. IMO he's damned if he does damned if he doesn't. What I also find weird too is that nobody is seeing this clana break up from clarks pov everyone keeps seeing poor lana who got hurt from a break up nobody sees what's driving him to it. I throughly believe the events from recokoning have affected him deeply. Ergo his not telling her his secret.



As for the throwing punches at other people as in suped up people I can agree with that he should throw punches.

For part of the fight anyway, he didn't know that JK was "suped up". But yeah, I think he should throw more punches, especially against Brainiac/Fine. The only time I remember him throwing them was in Mortal when he & Lex fought.

I definitely understand your point of Clark regressing (I thought in S1 & S2 he was the most mature we had ever seen him). But I think the breakup did show he is starting to grow up. He knew he had to end it and he had to show himself as a jerk or else he would have continued going in circles with Lana. What happened in Reckoning was a result of him not listening to Jor-El in Arrival, though I wonder if JK would have died soon regardless (that future shown in Lexmas showed both him & Lana alive about 8-10 years later). His Superman side wanted to make things right, but this caused things to go terribly wrong and turned out to be a huge lesson for him. In the movies, he did the same thing after Lois was killed in the earthquake that Lex caused, but there were no side effects (someone else dying to "balance" the universe).

But this multiple Brainiacs thing just seems to prove that Brainiac is actually the ship, which can create all the Milton Fines it wants to until it runs out of matter to do it with. Part of the ship is destroyed (the part that turned into the Milton Fine that died in the FOS). I wonder why he kept going to the warehouse. Maybe he communicated his knowledge with the rest of him (i.e. the ship) though I think he can just send signals to do that (if Earth has wireless communications, he must be so much more advanced).

What struck me was when Lex's guy said Milton Fine is not who we thought. I don't know if that refers to their perception that he is a government worker or if they found out that he turned himself into a Lionel (a bogus Lionel) like some other poster suggested in the Cyborg threads.

Weird logic? Um, you do know Lana knew Clark's secret during their senior year in the comics. I'm not the only that mentioned the illogical reasoning "Reckoning". There is a reason vast of the fanbase hated that epsiode ;). Actually we heard Clark's POV, and this is the first time we able to hear Lana's. Clark is BDA who needs a reality check. The affect of "Reckoning' is what is called a lightswitch :p. AlMiles are known for them since they don't know how to write a show.

Uh, check again in "Exile" Clark knew Jor-El gave his dad powers ;). So yea he knew.

What SV did a lightswitch not progression. He was far more mature in S1 and S2. That was when I liked his character. The movie example not really. In "Reckoning" Jor-El told him if he turned back time one way or another someone will die, and he couldn't stop it. There is no way back. Clark knew someone else was going to die, and he didn't care. He wanted to save Lana, and forget the other innocent person who will die. With movies he didn't have to sacrifice someone else to save Lois. There is a huge difference, and not the same :\.

[Krypton935]

I was pshyced to see multiple Brainiacs. I can't wait to see the fight between them and Clark. It will be a really good battle.
