Hector, check out this site, Brother:
Highlights from G4's Live Coverage of San Diego Comic-Con, Part 1: TV!
The crux of it is from about the 4 Minute mark on. About 5 Minutes in is the mention of Supes, but the preceding story puts it into a neat context.Comment

Well, when the talk of that came up in the interview, the first thing I noticed was that he is a physical presence. His arms look bigger than they do in the photo you posted at the beginning of this thread. I think the Dude has the role on his mind.Last edited by saildog; Jul 27, '10, 10:27 PM.Comment

Sigh, I'm not going to bother defending Welling here, heck there's almost no point in posting about Smallville in this forum, but Welling has the build to play Superman as well. The guy goes shirtless for the ladies every 3rd episode. He's ripped. He could do it.
Not saying this True Blood guy couldn't, but Welling can pull of the physicality. If you ever bothered watching the show, you'd know this.

I think Welling would be fine. And I though Rough did a good job as well.Last edited by ScottA; Jul 28, '10, 8:41 PM.sigpic WANTED: Boxed, Carded and Kresge Carded WGSHComment

Keep smiling Chris. I'm with you on Smallville. We'll start another Smallville thread and I'll delete all negative posts.

Routh was a fine Superman. And Returns is a good movie...it's just not the type of Superman movie anyone wanted, or Warners needed to reboot the franchise.

The Naysayers can down Tom & Smallville all they want...but it's proven it's staying power as they now head into the 10th Season!. And don't think for one minute Warner Brothers aren't aware of this.
Studios don't like to take risks with BIG BUDGET block busters. But by casting Tom, they don't have to...there's already a "built in" Fan base.sigpicComment

I mean...are we all supposed to agree with each other?
What's the point of posting then?
I was never abusive...I'm a very fine fella...I think most would agree.
Besides...Tom Welling is not exactly a deity or political leader of any kind...he's just an actor.

It's all good Hector. I love ya Dude.
What Chris and I are refering to is that in EVERY SINGLE thread about Smallville people post only about how much they hate the show and/or it's stars. They have nothing positive to say - "I never watched it and I never will, etc.". It's fine for the first 5 threads but after that is gets old real fast. If you don't like then we'd rather you (people in general) didn't post at all.
We'd just like to talk about something we like without all the negative-nannies jumping in every single time.Last edited by ScottA; Jul 28, '10, 11:27 PM.sigpic WANTED: Boxed, Carded and Kresge Carded WGSHComment

Smallville = General Hospital with Superheroes and 5.5 minutes of actual Action per episode.
But without Scorpio, Frisco and Felicia... The Original Knight ..., Often Imitated, However Never Duplicated. The 1st Knight in Customs.
