You Said It 
Since, as mentioned, I turned off the comment feature due to
way too much spam getting through even with filters, I asked you
to send me your comments to my e-mail address at guardian@redboots.net
and you did. Thanks!
I’m going to post and comment on some of your e-mail. I’m
not posting all of the e-mail since many are simply one liners
like “I agree” or “I disagree” or “Loved your post”
type of comments. Believe me, I love getting them, both positive
and negative, but in this column I’ll be addressing comments,
questions, critiques, etc. so let’s get started.

A Many Splintered Thing
 Now
that Smallville’s 6th season is over and filming has begun
on the new season, it’s clear that somewhere midpoint last
year the show made a deadly shift in direction.
The first half of the season averaged nearly 5 million
viewers, while the “back 9,” as the remaining episodes are
referred to in TV lingo, could barely come close to 4 million.

Superman: Doomsday
Behind
the Scenes of the Animated Movie
Translating the best selling Death of Superman saga into a 70
minute animated movie is a daunting task. Of course in that time
frame not everything will be covered, which might upset purists,
but unless you have the money to produce a story on a Peter
Jackson scale, that’s inevitable.
The other purist constituency who might quibble over details
would be fans of the Superman animated series, disappointed that
different voice actors are being used and the look of the
characters will be different. However, for the rest of us, this
should be a very intense and entertaining movie.Read

Is Chloe Sullivan Really Lena
Thorul?
No character on Smallville has had more speculation on who
she might really be than Chloe Sullivan. Why? Because
she is not a canon character currently in the Superman myth.
There had been the “Chloe is Lois” theory, known in
shorthand as the “Chlois” theory, but that was put to rest
for all but a handful of hopeful die-hards when the real Lois
Lane joined the cast. There were also theories that Chloe could
be Lucy Lane until Lucy also showed up, or maybe she could be
Cat Grant, but Chloe doesn’t pack the gear for that character.
However, there is confirmation that Chloe will be appearing
in the comics as early as 2008, so that prompted me to post the
Lena Thorul theory before the truth about Chloe Sullivan comes
out and makes this, like the other theories, obsolete. Plus I
will issue this spoiler warning that a new character is joining
the Smallville cast next season, so read no further if you
don’t want to be spoiled. Read
