Smallville – S09E12 – Warrior

Tonight's Episode – Warrior

Woof, I'm still coming down from the endorphin high from last week's Smallville extravaganza! Man, that was good stuff.

So! Now we're back to our regularly scheduled programming. Last season, after Geoff Johns wrote the stellar Legion of Super-Heroes episode, Smallville went into the tank. There were some truly dreadful shows after that. Ugh. But let's hope that's not the case this season!

Zatanna's back and that's a good sign, and ths week Smallville heads to a comic book convention.

 


 

As always, I look forward to your thoughts, opinions, gripes, live-blogging, etc.

  8. boomergirl boomergirl says:

    chloe got a text from oliver about some guy ith boomerangs, who else can it be?

  9. Devastron Devastron says:

    I wonder how much they had to pay Lucasfilm for all of that Star Wars stuff. Also I wonder why they didn’t just use Captain Marvel for this, it seems like a pastiche of his powers and secret ID.

  10. Superyan Superyan says:

    @boomergirl – i wasnt questioning you, it was my geek out too!  that would be cool if the show him at some point..

  11. Superyan Superyan says:

  12. AztecLos AztecLos says:

    Captain Marvel would have been better.

  13. AztecLos AztecLos says:

    Allison Mack directed this one.

  14. boomergirl boomergirl says:

    @supervan- I meant to type that as a question but in my excited geekiness I missed the proper punctuation. also, the fanservice was a nice touch.

  15. boomergirl boomergirl says:

    it kinda has a Captain Marvel vibe to it.

  16. Superyan Superyan says:

    ZATANNA!!!!

  17. redhood22 redhood22 says:

  19. JesTr JesTr says:

    @AztecLos I agree Captain Marvel would have been awesome.

  20. AztecLos AztecLos says:

    Did they pay a lot to use C3PO

  21. JesTr JesTr says:

    Wonder-Woman???

  22. AztecLos AztecLos says:

    Erica Durance is hot as Wonder Woman.

  23. boomergirl boomergirl says:

    oh cons, how I miss you.

  24. PraxJarvin PraxJarvin says:

    WB is the current distribution house for Star Wars: The Clone Wars, I’m sure they only paid a (relatively) small licensing fee.

  25. Heroville Heroville says:

    Jesus christ Chloe couldn’t be more turned on without humping his leg

  26. Superyan Superyan says:

    @ Heroville – i’m no Z expert, but she’s had a very flirtatious relationship w/ Batman as far as i know..

  29. Superyan Superyan says:

    @Heroville – I’m not Z expert, but she’s always had a flirtatious relationship with Batman..

  30. AztecLos AztecLos says:

  31. Superyan Superyan says:

  33. AztecLos AztecLos says:

  34. Heroville Heroville says:

    Has Zatanna always been this lusty in the comics, I don’t ever remember that being a side to her characterization

  35. Superyan Superyan says:

  36. Superyan Superyan says:

  37. AztecLos AztecLos says:

  38. redlibertyx redlibertyx says:

  44. JesTr JesTr says:

  45. boomergirl boomergirl says:

    I just remembered that the kid’s like 12 years old.

  46. AztecLos AztecLos says:

  47. Heroville Heroville says:

    At 12 years old I knew damn well what do to alone with a girl

  48. JesTr JesTr says:

  53. Superyan Superyan says:

    Whoa he opened the shirt and showed the "S" like getting into action.

  55. Heroville Heroville says:

    Oh no now he’s a 90s Image character!

  56. AztecLos AztecLos says:

    So a 12 year old designed his suit?

  57. Heroville Heroville says:

    "So how did you decide on your costume Superman?"

    "A 12 year old boy designed it"

    "….OK then"

  58. Superyan Superyan says:

    I love Zatanna!  Note to Smallville show runners… Get Paul Dini to write an episode with her next season!!! :D

  59. Superyan Superyan says:

    lol.. "you smelled like a magazine insert!"

     

  60. Heroville Heroville says:

    I don’t know if its a good or bad thing that I’ve never had a girlfriend like Lois

  61. Superyan Superyan says:

    Ollie and Chloe are soo gonna hook up!

  62. boomergirl boomergirl says:

    subtext!

  63. AztecLos AztecLos says:

    OH Oliver and Cloe.

  64. Heroville Heroville says:

    "She’s a little buzzed and in a bad mood…I better give her a weapon"

  65. redlibertyx redlibertyx says:

    OH CRAP! IS CHLOE GOING TO GET LUCKY TONIGHT?!?!?!?

  66. JesTr JesTr says:

    So they are finally playing up the Ollie/Chloe angel.

  67. redlibertyx redlibertyx says:

    The preview looks AWESOME!

  68. boomergirl boomergirl says:

    about damn time.

  69. AztecLos AztecLos says:

    A Valantine episode way after Valantine’s Day? Someone got the tiem mixed up.

  70. Superyan Superyan says:

    @AztecLos – it would have aired this wk, ON TIME, because tonight’s episode was originally supposed to air the wk before Disciple, but that Haiti special pushed everything out of whack and they didnt wanna change the date of last wk’s big movie event.

  71. Crippler Crippler says:

    Well, I enjoyed this episode WAY too much.  Lots of fun.  Yes, it should have been some Shazam magic, but what can you do?  It worked for me and it was pretty funny.  What’s up with Chloe having a Natal before the release date? 

    Chloe/Oliver hooking up is pretty cool.  They needed to do SOMETHING with her this season.  What happened to IT help guy that Tess was using? 

    Zatanna is the hottest woman on this show.  I guess fishnets in real life are much hotter. 

  72. crud i missed it.  actually ponied up for ps3 and got arkham asylum .  damn im hooked!

  73. marshak75 marshak75 says:

    Chloe and Ollie wil not end well since Ollie is such a dog.  i was pleasantly surprised by Swan’s Zatanna.  In the last episode, she was basically eye candy.  This time, she actually had some substance.  I liked the illusion she laid on Clark.  Very much in Zatanna’s character.  She always acts impulsively and you never really know what she will do. 

  74. Crippler Crippler says:

    So, speaking of the confluence of the Olympics and Smallville….

  75. Crippler Crippler says:

    The Olympic cauldron is supposed to symbolize the host country.  Who would have guessed that the Olympics were being held on Krypton? 

     Seriously, it’s like a piece of the set that got left behind when they finished shooting Smallville in Vancouver! 

  76. Cheezdog Cheezdog says:

    Did anyone else see the (partly covered up) Superman poster and big DC logos around the convention hall?

  77. IroncladMerc says:

    So I guess this show takes place in the future, as Lois had Natal on her Xbox360, which isn’t out yet.

  78. Heroville Heroville says:

    @IroncladMerc Given that this is some version of the DCU WanyeTech has probably had that out since the late 80s
