More thoughts on the Pilot Episode

[serafina20]

I love how Nell says tulips are simple flowers (did she say for simple people? Anyway) and then those are the flowers Lex orders for Victoria. Was he trying to tell her something? (I like tulips, though, so I don't know what that says about me.;)

I fucking *love* how Lana's parents don't move. They just stand there and stare. Love, love, *love* it.

I also love how, on the commentary, Almiles assure us that the little girl didn't actually see the people get crushed because it was filmed in two different towns. So ... you did kill people, but you didn't let the little girl see it. Great.

Little!Lex is so beautiful, it breaks my heart. Baby!Clark is adorable, too. But he's not 3. He's 6. Maybe older. And how did he fit in the ship? Not the old one, the new one. That holding space was only a little bit bigger than a baby. I don't see a 3/6 year old fitting in it. So, I'm right with you, Bo; I don't believe Clark was ever that small either.

They're all so *young*. Even Lex. So young.

Pete's so cute! And look! He's not pushing any products.

Chloe's office looks a lot like a computer lab. And that, friends, is the only bit of reality I've seen on this episode so far.

I hate Lana's baby voice, and I'm glad she doesnt talk like that anymore.

I'd never seen Clark faint after rescusing Lex before. I must have looked away the while watching the DVD.

And, finally, THEIRLOVEISSOPURE!!!

See, they had already grown tired of dealing with Lana. It was suicide-by-meteor. :)

*snort* OMG, I never realized that!

There's really no other way to explain it. :)

I really should rewatch to make sure, but I remember cracking up over that statement.

They actually said that? Because it doesn't matter if they were in the same town, the people were killed by a CGI rock! She'd have to have been in the post-production house to see it.

Hee!

Note that those notes at the end of movies always say "no *animals* were harmed in the making of this motion picture." It says nothing at all about people.

People are expendable. It's the animals we have to protect! :)

I *know*. Man, even though Lewis turned out to not be her biological father, she clearly comes by that chuckleheadedness she occasionally displays honestly. *g*

Nurture obviously plays a *big* part in Lana's sense of self-preservation. :)

You didn't miss it.

Clark falling over in a dead faint next to Lex by the riverside is on the Canadian WB DVD of the Pilot/Metamorphosis, not on the WB First season of SV DVD set.

It is available in stock at Virgin Mega-stores and Amazon on-line, the usual sources, etc.

So, no, you didn't miss it.

I have the DVD. I've watched the DVD. I missed Clark fainting on the DVD.

Ahh, oops!

[astrea9562.livejournal.com]

I misunderstood. No cookie for me. But, you do have the fun of re-watching just for that. *g*

Re: Ahh, oops!

[serafina20.livejournal.com]

I *saw* it this time!!!!! :) That's what I was saying. People have mentioned it before, and I, who bought the DVD back when it came out, didn't realize understand what they were talking about. Then, last night, I saw it. :)

Hopeless, ain't I?

See, the way I read that, it seemed like you meant that you had just recently watched it and hadn't seen that scene.

Just shoot me now, to quote Donald Duck. *face palms*

On the up side; dayum, that made the scene even slashier, if that was even possible. ;)
