meimichiMan, not much love for "Fade" in the poll, huh? I think that episode is the prettiest of the four I put up, too. But this episode is awesome and I think it's one of everyone's favorites, so no real surprise.
Part one of what may become an ongoing picspam series entitled, "Chloe Sullivan is a reporter, you fucking hacks that call yourselves a writing staff." OR MAYBE WE CAN COME UP WITH SOMETHING MORE CATCHY. Suggestions welcome!
"Do you know that there have been rumors about her flying around Suicide Slums for weeks? But I couldn't get a confirmed eyewitness... Until your mom. Now, this has front-page news written all over it! The vigilante is for real!"
And as the following is basically the reason for the picspam, it gets special treatment.
Oh, Allison Mack, I LOVE YOUR FACE.
Now this is what I need, Clark: a catchy moniker for our new crime-fighter. 'Miss Death Wish!' No, that's lame. 'Dirty Harriet!' No, that's too derivative. ...I got it! I got it, Clark! So, your mom said that she swooped down from the heavens...
So, how about the 'Angel of Vengeance'?"
"Chloe. Police report."
"Right. I'm sorry, Clark. Once I go Woodward and Bernstein, I get carried away..."
THE MOST HILARIOUS SCENE IN THE HISTORY OF EVER:
Nnnngh Luthorcorp I miss you and your icy blues.
Did anyone else notice this week that they put up one of the Luthorcorp lit-up walls in Ollie's office, but replaced the blue light with green? NOT PRETTY.
I love how this episode is supposed to take place over a period of a single night, and yet count the costume changes for everyone involved, lol. Not that I blame Chloe for changing into jeans once work was over, but she's not the only oneee!
"He's gonna be okay. We won't let anything happen to him."
This scene is so gorgeous.
"Besides, the mask doesn't look so good with glasses over it."
"Acuvue to the rescue!"
YOU KNOW I HAD TO DO IT. OH SHOW. YOU ARE SUCH A WHORE.
Clark being smart with the pizza delivery call!
And Chloe, rockin' the Chloevage.
"I hope you enjoyed your stay. Sorry it was so short."
OLD PEOPLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Lionel is such a creeper. ilu, Lionel!
"What made you stop...?"
"My dad's voice."
"Do you think you could ever do what she did? Play the mild-mannered reporter by day, and a crime-fighter by night?"
"Honestly? I'm kind of hoping I can find a way to not have to hide who I really am."
This might be my favorite Clana scene in the history of the entire show.
Lana does something entirely selfless and kind, with no agenda. And it makes sense. Because she lost her parents, and she had her necklace, and she gets it completely.
So well-done.
And speaking of well-done scenes...
Best. Scene. Ever.
It just comes out of nowhere and even now I can't believe this scene exists, because it feels like it belongs on some other, more touching, better-written show.
Perfect.

Date: 2009-03-29 07:38 pm (UTC)Yeah, I don't know why it NEEDS a rug.
Because the floor also looks really cheapo? Not that the rug helps matters any, admittedly. Maybe the merger isn't long for this world, thus the lack of effort in the set? If they aren't using it into next year, I can see why they wouldn't go all out.
Yeah, despite the fact everyone keeps going on over how disconnected she is, and how true it is... Her death could really be the insta-fix for many of the characters' issues, if they really let it ripple and sell it hard.

Date: 2009-03-29 08:44 pm (UTC)I love that he's so lame though! Like, Jimmy is just Lame. Just... not that he doesn't have his moments too, but on the whole - he's just lame-o. But Clark's lameness is at such a level that it's almost endearing. If that makes sense.
Maybe the merger isn't long for this world, thus the lack of effort in the set?
Now that makes sense. Maybe it's transitional too, as they are going to make a Queen Industries office (that y'know, they should have maybe made in s6 rather than his apartment) and so it's in a transitional phaze.
Still I think Tess need to take over Lionel's old office. It would say a lot about her rising tot he badassness level. She got to start out behind Lex's desk in the premiere after taking out Regan (kinda), and to know about Clark and move on up to LuthorCorp proper would make sense.

I was going over this yesterday with a bunch of people, but if one figures that they let her figure out about Clark and let them say okay, she knows and that's the end of the affair; if they let her and Ollie talk about how this year was them grandly f-ing up because they didn't want to get sucked into their own Lollie go-round again, if Tess sees that with Lollie, then bam. In two scenes one can really set up (on top of the missed phone call set up, and the Chloe set up from Hex where she's not going to try to undermine Nois):
- Clark feels bad for letting someone who had faith in him down
- Chloe feels bad because... she's Chloe.
- Tess has a motive whether she's the shooter or not.
- Jimmy should feel kinda bad because it sound like in Stiletto he tells her to take a hike (thus maybe like in Descent he coulda helped)
- Ollie feels horrrible because hey, he did care about her, and wow we have a death that really maybe was in his power to save and ZOMG HE HAS A MISSION AGAIN and can stop just being Ollie Queen, Asshole.
And then you also get the karma of her dying right when everything finally aligns for her. *nod*
