SMALLVILLE Minicaps / Season 8, Eps. 17-20

The Smallville season 8 minicaps is now 100% Lana free.  It took us a while, but we finally got around to it.  Thank you for your patience.

We had some brief returns of some long-time players in Smallville that have been absent this season.  One was Lana, who underwent a procedure to become superpowerful, only to get her and Clark’s new perfect relationship sunk when she gets irradiated with kryptonite.  And that happens thanks to the other returning player, Lex Luthor, who is physically destroyed from that experience at the Arctic, and who ends up dead thanks to an explosion caused by Oliver Queen.  Meanwhile, Tess seems to be aware of Clark’s secret, and lets him know as much despite his denials.  Our other villain this season, Davis Bloome, is now murdering criminals and keeping people off his scent through some pretty extreme measures, like Jimmy, who thinks Davis is the killer, and gets drugged up bad for it.  That drugging up doesn’t help Jimmy convince Chloe of what’s going on, and either due to the pills he’s starting to pop more than regularly or his own insecurities, wants to not be married to Chloe anymore.  Sniff.

Oh, Chloe, can you make things worse somehow?  Not to spoil what’s coming up here in this round of minicaps, but the short answer is “yes”… Continue reading

SDCC 2014 News Wrap-Up!

Stewart here…

As the latest San Diego Comic-Con has wrapped, I thought it would be fun to look at some of the big news that dropped over the weekend at the place I consider “geek nirvana”.  So let’s get to the real reason it’s called comic-con with… Continue reading

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s Ward… do we love him? Yes, we do.

26 Jul

At the end of season 1 of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Charity and I were working on a post about why we loved Agent Ward. Even though he was with Hydra and evil. Life happened, the finale aired, and we never finished it.

But it has lingered in the back of my mind ever since.

Ward is evil. He is Hydra. But we still love him. Below is an excerpt from the discussion we had regarding Agent Ward. Continue reading

The Smallville season 8 minicaps is happy to see Lana again, but really concerned with her state of mind after what happens here.

 Chloe has been infected by Brainiac, and after her wedding gets crashed by Davis as a giant rock monster, that illness has to finally be dealt with by Clark (with some help of some 31st century heroes).  Before Chloe gets downgraded from her Brainiac powers, she gets in touch with Davis about that pesky thing where he’s a kryptonian super weapon and meant to destroy Clark and humanity.  Add to that, Jimmy’s been hospitalized because of Davis’ rampage, and Lana has reappeared in town.  A lot of stuff for Clark to handle in this round of minicaps, especially with Lex being alive and not so well.  So, let’s jump in… Continue reading

Television Graveyard- plot 9, SeaQuest DSV

20 Jul

Things were different back in the 90s…

Sunday night television was actually appropriate for families. Shows didn’t aim to outdo each other by hitting extremes of violence, sex, language or gore. It was a different time.

Kids, in the fall of 1993, NBC  premiered a sci-fi series from Steven Spielberg set in the near-ish future where the world was mostly at peace, and man had set out to explore a new frontier… the oceans.

The Smallville season 8 minicaps is trying to slim down for Chloe and Jimmy's wedding.  Either that, or buy a new suit.

Clark’s starting to become a hero (if in secret) around Metropolis, and that’s bound to get some attention for the nervous Mr. Kent.  But he embraces it, and probably good timing too because things in town are getting weird.  Chloe has started to become creepy super-genius, Tess is getting really interested in Lex’s obsession with kryptonian stuff, and Davis has found out he might be a kryptonian WMD whose meant to lay waste to Earth.  Plus, Lois is totally not interested in him.  What?  She isn’t!

Who are YOU really?

16 Jul

Have you ever watched a movie/TV show and flipped out because you are so used to seeing that actor as another character? For instance, Princess Diaries 2 pits Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) against Smallville‘s Major Zod (Callum Blue) for the hand of Catwoman (Anne Hathaway). It’s just weird.

I saw a meme a few months ago that hits home with this idea- Continue reading

So… you want to write a guest post?

14 Jul

Something strange has happened the last few months- we’ve gotten a large number of requests to guest post on NerdLush. Now, I think it’s really cool that people want to join us, but a lot of the requests scream SCAM/SPAM… like… they aren’t written by people that actually read our site. So I’ve decided that there should be a form to fill out if you want to guest post with us- Continue reading

The Smallville season 8 minicaps spends more time in Metropolis these days.  It's not Smallville's fault.

Clark has managed to escape the wreckage of the Fortress (whether Lex did as well is another mystery) and set out on the next phase of his life: without Lana and working as a reporter for the Daily Planet alongside Lois.  But he also has a new boss in new Luthorcorp boss Tess Mercer, who has inherited Lex’s tendency to get involved in sinister alien stuff.  Chloe and Jimmy get engaged, and we meet a possibly new friend in EMT Davis Bloome, who spends his time between saving lives and waking up naked in alleyways.  I’m sure the latter part of that’s just a phase he’s going through.  Anyhoo… Continue reading
