Smallville Season 8 Finale: 8x22 Doomsday Review
Hi Everyone,
Well, that was not only the worst finale ever, but one of the worst episodes ever. They're exhausted and apparently have no goddamn energy or desire to pull anything good out of any part of their body. Seriously, they couldn't look on the net and find some talented fans to help them out? Jesus, usually they just piss off the Cloisers. This time, they pissed off everyone. I couldn't see what fanbase they were aiming for. As usual, I agree completely with my partner in crime, so I'll be commenting quite a bit like Cricketgrl's LJ and I thank her for her incredible fan art and passion for SV and Clois. :)
8x22 Doomsday Review
Lois vs. Tess
What the fuck!!! As Cricketgrl said, we have an Army Soldier trained woman and a Martial Arts trained woman and they give us a stupid little weak fight? What, did the guys in the writing room sit there and go, "Gee, let's put the two hot women on the show in a room and see how many guys we can give a fantasy to instead of letting them actually kick ass?" They seriously need to watch Alias and let strong women actually fucking FIGHT! Tess and Lois wouldn't fight like that. That was some teenage male's fantasy. I get that these are the hot women, but these are trained women, step up the fight about 98%.
And on top of that, there was hardly a REASON for the fight! Lois doesn't have your goddamn orb, Tess. Does Lois look like she could blow up your door from the inside? NO! Now I've only watched the episode once and I was bored, so maybe I missed something, but it just seemed like they really WANTED them to fight so they created some scenario with little reason FOR the fight. Tess should've known it wasn't Lois. They just wanted them to fight. Hey, two hot chicks, right? Gawwwwwwwwd.
Clark Kent vs. Doomsday
Clark doesn't die, Doomsday's still evil and splits in two, the whole thing's ridiculous. WHY why why? This was written horrifically. You don't need a big budget to do great writing. It's called dialogue, it's called the story. I don't give a damn about special effects. So if we didn't get a big fight, fine. Have something else. Give us a better STORY! This, whatever this was...crap. I didn't even mind so much that we didn't get some huge fight, maybe they couldn't afford it, however, Clark and Doomsday had barely a scene together. THAT is horrible. It should've been about them. HELLO!
Lois Lane & The Red Blue Blur
THIS WAS OUR ONLY SCENE? Okay, why is Clark all of a sudden ALWAYS being an ass to her? Like, a real ass? Not my cup of tea. If we have a triangle, we have a triangle, fine, but Clark doesn't need to be world's biggest fuck head and then run off and be distant but kind to her as his alter-ego. NO! And what were we supposed to gain from this scene? After what Clana, Lexana, pretty much every other couple has gotten in finales, we get a phone booth scene where nothing really happens and "all is supposed to be forgiven"? BULLSHIT! It's two minutes before the show's over and I realize we're going to get nothing else and I'm so confused I'm not even pissed off. Now, I'm left realizing how much they fucked everyone over and I'm amazed.
The phonebooth scene was pointless, nothing happened. I'm not impressed with this triangle at all. This is not making me go mythos at all. Not in SV anyway. It sucks. Improve it or move on.
Dinah Lance
I love me some Dinah Lance! I was so happy to see her! But again, what the FUCK! What, the love of her life doesn't even say hello to her? Gee, Oliver and Clark have the same damn problem. No realization in their minds whatsoever. (See, unlike with Clois where there is no switching of their partnering at all, I'm happy with Oliver being with Dinah or Tess, hee) But the so under used our Dinah. Dammit. And I love her. And can I just say how much better she looks as a brunette? She's one gorgeous woman. Wow.
Oliver Queen
See, as much as I hate to say it, I was pretty much on Oliver's side. For the greater good, sometimes you have to make some sacrifices. I don't know, that's my point of view. It'd be nice if you could believe in the good all the time, like Clark, but not everyone is redeemable. Sucks. So I'm much more of a Clark fan than an Oliver fan, but Oliver had my vote on this one. Poor Ollie!
Chloe and Jimmy
Does she NEVER die??? God! I actually didn't want her to die until now, and now I'm pissed that she's still here. Crap! Jimmy died and she still has the nerve to be the one to survive? GRRRRRRRR! But as a total Chimmy person, I was blown away, once again, by their love. Chloe/Davis, go away! They were a ridiculous pairing. I was SO happy Chloe realized who the love of her life is. Not Davis, not Clark, but Jimmy. Sometimes, guess what, the good guy gets your love. And I'm so happy our James Olsen, OUR James Olsen, got that before the bastard killed him.
So poor Chloe, she's having a bad day. I wish Lois would bring our Jimmy back so he and Chloe could be together. TEARS!
Where the FUCK is Lois?
Okay, so Lois is our heroine, our canon heroine, and they leave her out of 80% of the show? I could scream. I loved her scene with Jimmy, I will always miss their scenes. I hope Lois travels to the future and finds out the truth. I hope she has a great time and comes back as sassy as ever. I hope we see her in the future and I hope they un-fuck all of this shit and despite my language I am forever the optimist. Though I don't know why.
Again, what the FUCK?!?!
