Nicméně zrovna tam čtu recenzi na letošní finále, kterou jsem ještě nečetl, a zase:
"Clark meets Lionel in the hallways of Luthorcorp and beats the bejesus out of him on an assumption. Ah, young Superman, you're so mischevious! What a poor example you set for L'il Lobo!
I don't even have to tell you why this disappoints me, if you're still reading. It's a patently ridiculous attempt to make the stakes seem higher and Clark to seem EDGY. Instead, it makes him look like a brutal sadist $#%hole who uses force to get his way, which isn't even the level to which Batman sinks unless he HAS to. On unverified information from a fifty-time liar. It's supposed to seem like he's a justified bad@#$ here, which is why it plays so horribly to me. Hands-down, one of the most disappointing scenes of this show.
Seriously, folks. He beats an old man to the point of bleeding out the mouth after throwing him ten feet over something he SAID. Is that heroic?" |
