[QUOTE="Talaysen, post: 201369, member: 340"] It has been established that Clark levitates in his sleep. However, he is as yet unable to control that ability; he has not accessed it - intentionally or unintentionally - while conscious; and the producers continue to chant "no flights, no tights". I sincerely doubt that we will see conscious, intentional flight in the near future. Spoilers have been revealed for next season - through Lex Luthor's account on the LuthorCorp intranet - that indicate that, regardless of whether his father lives or dies, Lex's involvement with LuthorCorp will end and a new entity, LexCorp, will be born. It is possible that LuthorCorp itself will be transformed into the new company; Lex might choose to change the name in an effort to restore the company's reputation, or at least give it a blank slate. Bruce Wayne is problematic; there are a lot of hoops to jump through before they bring him on the show. Yes, the WB owns Superman and Batman and the rest, but...well, I don't know what's going on, I just know the producers aren't sure they can make it happen. Note that at least some of the supervillains didn't die - at least not onscreen. Yes, some of them could indeed return, and probably will. I'm hoping for less emphasis on Kryptonite, however; it has been implied that some humans have developed powers without the aid of that substance, and I would like to see that theme explored in more detail. In the original DCU, Superman was the first of many superheroes; in the current DCU, he's one of many, not even the first. It seems that in the Smallville universe there have not yet been any other superheroes - to the public's knowledge - so frankly, I'd like to see some. Give us a Green Lantern! A Flash! Even a Black Canary will do! (Actually, BC is my favorite DC heroine - though Wonder Woman is a close second - it's just that she only has the one rather lame superpower.) Or give us completely original superhumans. Just - enough with the Kryptonite. And, again, I don't even need to see SUPERvillains every week. "Rogue" was one of Smallville's more interesting episodes, and the villain in that one was completely human. Of course, they killed the guy at the end - I wasn't too thrilled with that; I would've liked to see our friend Phelan keep his life and his knowledge of Clark's powers, and return a few more times to cause trouble. I think he would have made a great recurring villain. [/QUOTE]
