->Sitting with a group of pals, my friend Andrew Muchoney and I exchanged dropped-jaws looks when a bit from what was obviously the end of the movie was shown. How naïve we were. Now 80% of trailers are like that.

->You almost don’t need to spend $45 and a kidney (or however much a movie ticket is these days) to sip canned wine from a paper bag in a darkened theater while surrounded by a bunch of brats and their parents loudly talking at the screen. The trailer shows you the whole movie!

->If you don’t want to actually sit through this film, just watch the trailer. It’s a microcosm of the actual film. It’s the damn Cliff Notes. It seemingly just leaves out the very end ([[CaptainObviousReveal wins the fight, gets his daughter back]] I’m guessing?). Why does Hollywood assume that we’re all slack-jawed hammerheads who need everything spoon fed to us? Hey, I sort of understood ''{{Film/Interstellar}}''! I know things! I’m learned and patient enough not to need the movie explained to me so I’ll go see the movie! And so are many others, I’m sure. Hollywood’s the worst.

->Batman uncovers signs of a dangerous ''new'' villain unlike anything Gotham has ever-- '''''[[HijackedByGanon IT'S THE JOKER]]''''', alright?!\\\
And since his face is all over the fucking posters, I spoil that with no shame whatsoever.

->What ''Smallville'' tends to get right above all else is casting, principal and supporting roles alike. So it is (and was before) with Callum Blue as Zod, returning in "Dominion"...the attempt to exploit any available mystery around Zod's role as Clark and Oliver's Phantom Zone captor (cf. the [[DramaticUnmask slow lifting of Zod's shrouded head]] at the moment of revelation) simply exposes what ''Smallville'' tends not to get so right: [[ExcusePlot illogically building plots ]] on the ragged edges of inconsistent character behaviors and motivations.\\\
On the whole, this short-coming is partly the fault of marketing -- all the advance clips and stills and whatnot that prevent the device of dramatic surprise from ever getting to work its magic on its audience. We see Welling and Hartley act as though Clark and Oliver are surprised at the revelation of Zod's presence, but much of the real drama we could have enjoyed is lost because we all knew it was coming and, what's more, we'd known about it for days (if not weeks). I'd even go so far as to call it tragic in this case especially because using Zod, in what is at root a [[PanderingToTheBase filler episode]] to serve what is at best a supplemental function, would otherwise have been a real surprise.
