[QUOTE="Orius, post: 2823984, member: 8863"] I thought it was ridiculously silly myself, but then I [i]always[/i] think Smallville is ridiculous. The whole "kill Lex" storyline was just stupid to begin with. We know Clark isn't going to kill Lex for 2 reasons: [list=1] [*]Superman, and by extention Clark, isn't known as a killer. Disregarding the examples to the contrary given here, Superman just isn't a cold-blooded murderer. And in this case, although he and Lex aren't getting along right now, they were still friends in the past, and he doesn't want to just bump off someone who was a friend. Especially when Jor-El tells him he must do it, because we know how well Clark has listened to dear old Dad in this show. [*]Lex Luthor is a major Superman character, and probably his most well-known villain. Clark simply [i]can't[/i] kill him because of this and the audience [i]knows[/i] this. [/list] The result: Clark does the [i]dumbest[/i] thing possible. Not surprising. He's been doing the dumbest thing possible [i]all season[/i]. As a result, I was pleased to see Clark stuck in the Phantom Zone, since he deserves it for being such a dumbass. In Clark's defense, I doubt he knew trying to kill Fine would free Zod, but I feel like bashing him anyway. :] I hope next season Clark does show some maturity, seriously. All this whining and teeny angst is grating. I want to see him finally tranform from Spineless Boy into the Man of Steel already. [/QUOTE]
