Smallville Magazine: The Last Stand....

Dec 04, 2009 02:05

I saw the final issue of Smallville Magazine and I leafed through it with no intention of buying it---until I got to the last page. Who is featured on the very last page of the very last issue of Smallville Magazine? Why Ari Cohen, that’s Regan Matthews if you’re nasty, so I had to buy it.

Excerpts )

Truer words have never been spoken. I like what he puts up on the screen put he always seems like a whack-a-doo in interviews.

I guess it's fair that he can be on the creative team and still have a personal favorite or preference to a character or idea, but to have such tunnel vision is funny.

Damn,roxymissrose's icon. I gotta get me some Tough Girls to Match.

How George Bush of them. snerk.

He said that Jared is really funny

I noticed that in the gag reel that I saw. Mr. Padelecki was the Jokester. He always had a quip or a slapstick move or a funny face to throw in. On the show, Mr. Ackles is the comic relief and Mr. Padelecki is the straight man (and a very good one, he plays it beautifully with both Mr. Ackles and Mr. Collins). Interesting contrast between the show and real life.

Now I know who Mr. Parrack is. I haven't watched enough of True Blood to have seen him on the show. I've just seen the first couple of episodes of season one. I don't recall that he was in any of those.

Mr. Parrack was very good as the siren. I noticed the coy feminity that he put into the role. I really believed that the character spent most of its time as a woman or female; but knew how to work a Bromance. It was subtle but telling.

I see why he is your favorite on True Blood. I don't know the character that he plays but the ( ... )

You and the Divine Miss Roxy have great icons especially the Mama O'Connell.

Interesting contrast between the show and real life.

I would think about the contrast between the dynamics of the SPN guys and the SV guys: Jared, younger than Jensen is the funny guy and on SV Michael is older than Tom and the funny guy and it makes sense that although Michael and Jensen have hung out and traveled together, Jensen says he has alot in common with Tom. Jensen has said that Jared draws him out of his shell and Tom has somewhat said the same about Michael. Such fascinating men--let's strap them down to tables and get them nekkid.... for science of course.

I've just seen the first couple of episodes of season one. I don't recall that he was in any of those.I've only watched S2 of True Blood. I don't know if he was in S1. His character on TB is Hoyt, the sweet, mama's boy who his now suddenly rebelling against her because he's in love with a vampire, the impulsive Jessica. ( ... )

I've always appreciated how much Erica loves Lois, and how game she is for whatever they throw at her. She's the opposite of a diva, I think. She makes an interesting point about Lois being on a journey in Smallville, too ( ... )

I don’t think I included this one, but the stunts coordinator said that Erica is wary of water so when it came time to submerge her they talked to her ahead of time and she got past her fear and did the scene.
He's intrigued by her, but underneath it all there's this unmistakable contempt and superiority.

Like Callum said, she’s still a monkey to him, intelligent or not.

I know some people on my flist disagree, but I find his Zod quite chilling. I think he's doing a great job, and I like that he's mindful of his responsibility to do this character justice.He’s incredibly mindful, what surprised me is that he says he’s made mistakes in the characterization and that’s unheard of because the only judge is yourself and he is so careful and mindful of Zod that he even doubts his own performance sometimes. I find his Zod perfectly evil and I’m loving it. It’s the coolness and the aloofness and ( ... )

I'm always so touched to hear how much thought and feeling actors put into their roles, whether those roles are big or small. That's what saves Smallville for me. The writing may make no sense at times, and TPTB may definitely smoke crack, but the actors pour their hearts and souls into this show, and I worship them for it.

There have been monumental moments on SV and the writing doesn’t make me gasp with its simple perfection like HBO’s “Six Feet Under” did, but it’s the cast’s earnestness and selling it that makes it work. It couldn’t work without such capable actors.
Acting fascinates and mystifies me, because I have no idea how they do it. My mom put me in acting classes in elementary school at the advice of the school psychologist, because I was so painfully shy, and I took them on and off all the way through high school. But I was never any good. :) I could never let go and make myself truly vulnerable by pulling forth my inner emotions and exposing them to the world in a performance.I think that’s the hard part of acting ( ... )
