THIS is when Smallville truly shined. They changed the Superman story forever. They turned Lex from a criminal mastermind, usually only after monetary gains and power, into the embodiment of evil.... into the freakin antichrist. And Rosenbaum played it like no other. He owned that role here and throughout the series. RIP Smallvile. You will be missed.
I never did understand what this vision represented. Did it mean that Lex causes the apocolypse? Did it mean that he'll murder a whole lot of innocent people while fighting Superman? Some have said it represents the old lady's impending death. I know we all have our ideas but this vision wasn't clear to me.
@Archangel101576 let me understand: You see a guy surrounded buy a post nuke enviroment
And you dont get it LOL In this overpopulated planet is a matter of time some of those enlightend smart asses who say they speak with god every day, decide it is time to bomb it all to SAVE PEACE, FREEDOM, AND SOME COLOR PATTERN IN A PIECE OF CLOTH.
@userwords um a little anti america aren't you? I think the comment is more appreciated when its less negative TO AN ENTIRE COUNTRY. But yes if you don't get this u might just need to go back to school
@jromanr01 maybe u r the one who need to go back to school:
1. My opinion must be thruthfull, i dont need you to like it, nor im gonna put some make up on it to accomodate your taste.
2. america is a continent not a country.
3. my post is about our main concern, overpopulation, which is the cause all issues directly or indirectly, cancer, terrorism, poverty, crime, inmigration, species extintion, climate change, unemployment, financial crisis and any other.
@userwords okay for u, yeah i still think u need to go to school.
1. "Thruthfull"?
2. I respect ur opinion i was using some humor to lighten your very negative post.
3. "America" is a term used to emphasize the United States of America, for instance i am an American. I come from America. But i don't HAVE to say, im from North America, or the US of A.
4. The Americas, as it is known is a Continent, North America and South America.
5. Okay great, so why are u insulting america? And ur solution?
3. Canada is also northamerica, usa is usa. It is like saying europe to refer to spain.
4.same.
5.u r becoming paranoid, i hate a guy who play to be god, dont care if hi is president of usa or italy, ill blame him anyway. And about overpopulation, is enough to top at 2 childs per 2 adults, not a big sacrifice if u think on the benefits for all of us. Believe me, im european and overpopulation is a disaster here.
@userwords thats all fine and dandy but i just don't appreciate when you say "is time to bomb it all to SAVE PEACE, FREEDOM, AND SOME COLOR PATTERN IN A PIECE OF CLOTH". I mean that 'might' offend a few people...
@jromanr01 I MEAN i dont care who get offended by the TRUTH. Thats what we call BEING HONEST. To say the truth ignoring ppl who may feel offended by it. If they feel that way then, they are guilty in some way, they like it or not. Not my sin, their sin.
@gjjijji Not really. In season 5 Lex takes the drug that puts you near death. His mother is there and begs him to stay because if he goes back to life then he'll never be able to wash away the blood of all the people he's going to murder.
@gjjijji Probably wouldn't have changed a thing. If I remember that episode right he didn't really believe in her power anyway and even if he did that future came from him being himself and doing what comes naturally to him and that's a hard urge to fight even when you really want to and I don't know that he would really want to in the end.
I had completely forgotten about this scene! I'm embarassed to say that because I remember thinking it was such a phenomenal piece of foreshadowing for so long.
@MartoEmeraldHonor It probably started as a reference to the comics. There he lost his hand to kryptonite poisoning and he covered the prosthetic with the glove.
@MartoEmeraldHonor Actually, that's a callback to the comics of the mid to late 80's/early 90's when Lex had a robot hand because his krytonite signet ring gave him cancer.
@thegame2011able Im guessing its to cover up his burnt up hand from the explosion, in the newest trailer for his return you see his arm completely messed up. In some pics of the series finale ep you see him sport it and since this destiny takes place when hes running or is president it makes total sense
@thegame2011able Well the explaination impulse gave you is accurate for the show. But in the comics he lost his hand from radiation poisoning from wearing a kryptonite ring for so long.
@DavidGBrowning under jor el's influence. lionel was the guy that because he was temporarily blind after his son saved him, he cursed his son for saving him at all. without jor el, lex would have already taken over the world, and lionel would have been a head trophy in his bedroom.
This future could happen in Smallville after 2013 Superman's ascension.
Will be the last apocalypse of Smallville, others are: Brainiac-Lex (Zod), Phantom Zoners, Brainiac-Kara-Lex (Apocalypse), Brainiac-Faora-Davis Bloome (Doomsday), Zod and his army (clones), Darkseid with his minions and another supervillain from central rogues. But in this video, why Superman doesn't stop Lex from destroying the world ?
Jesus if she died seeing lex destiny imagine what would have happen if she saw jack nappier destiny she probably would have like exploded of something
Check lex's right hand, he's wearing a dark glove, in Superman's story, the dark glove is because his kryptonite ring is killing him, starting with his hand, and he hides it with the glove. This is the best scene about lex's future, incluiding his vision about been president and the episode where he says I am the villain of this story.
@laloman1005 yh theres loads of cliffhangers about lex's ring like in the episode where oliver kills him and looks at the ring and it seems to hav something inside it, but u cant see it cus of the camera angle!!!!
I Remenber of see this scene in this some episode Lex goes talk with Clark and tell something because for some reason Lex tell to Clark be friend of the Clark make him more humam and dont have the cursr of the Luthors !!
When I saw this scene for the first time I was totally like "WHAT?!?!"... I mean.... I knew Lex Luthos is a villain but he was so nice with Clark and his family that this scene and the idea of him being the super villain just did not fit to him.
i cant find the part of this episode where casandra shows clark his future and tells him about his destiny- i really need this clip but cant find it on youtube- if anyone could help me i would appriciate it, because i need it for my next vid- thanks so much
lex never turned evil in my opinion, he just kept fighting to be the strongest and survive and make good use of his money to study and take advantage of his position. knowledge is power and time is money! can't waste it, and he didn't :).. michael rosenbaum is the perfect actor for Lex Luthor character. he cud really relate to em and be really convincing.
Later, when Clark & Lex are mortal enemies, Lex wears a kryptonite ring for years to keep Clark away. Ironically, the krytonite causes cancer in his hand and it has to be removed. The glove is actually an artificial hand.
ah thank you i didnt know that but i think lex wears this glove also in season 7 in the alternate universe, but theres neither clark kent nor a superman there
i don't know why tehy had him wearing a glove in that universe. you're right, it doesn't make sense. then again, it's smallville, and the writers are known for making a lot of timeline mistakes. =/
Smallville does something right every now and then. We see now that Lex in this continuity will still be pure eveil, and have that whole "lost hand" thing. Yep, Luthor is on to big things, including teaming up with DC's other leading maniac Mistah J.
Yeah, but the question is if they'd have changed knowing what they'd turn into? Lex didn't know that's what he would become, he didn't see the vision, he was good enough during the first few seasons he might've changed his ways but then it became too late.
I'd say Lex starts out in season 1 only about 25% evil, that's why he's buds with Clark. Then he gets about 10% more evil with each passing season, until now he's pretty much a lost cause, seeing as how he kinda shoved his dad through a window.
see the original movie { The Dead Zone } with Christopher Walken....( or read the book )....The Dead Zone did not copy....it's just how the two stories go. Smallville / The Dead Zone fan for life....!!!!!
Hackman's version, is just so Machiavellian and brilliant. Launching a nuclear missile to the San Andreas fault, calculating how to kill Superman, manipulating Zod, he is the ultimate villain in the DC universe.
Mind over Muscle. When it came time to cash in your chips did you think this diseased maniac would be your banker?(something like that)
If you h8 Returns you hate the 1st one.. All Superman did was lift things in the 1st one too. Returns was an homage.

I LOVE Smallville's take on Lex Luthor. So much more interesting than the ineffectual clown in the movies. The movie Luthor is just an excuse for some middle aged, balding actor to ham it up shamelessly. Both Hackman and Spacey were as threatening week old kittens.
This Lex is an three dimensional character . A true match for a guy like Clark Kent.
Yes, Spacey wasn't as goofy as Hackman was, but he was just as inept, idiotic and cartoony as Hackman. It really doesn't matter because I HATED "Superman Lifts Things".....I mean Superman Returns anyway.
Smallville may have flaws (cough Lana Lang cough) but at least they get the two main characters right.
He wasn't in any way "cartoony or inept" like Hackman. For Christ's sake: He stabbed Superman! And the look on his face was pure revenge!
Anyway, I would say Michael Rosenbaum is one of THE BEST portrayals of Lex Luthor, I'm glad with saying that! He deserves that, but I believe Spacey was pretty freaking good as well.
The Luthor from the movies is a crook and a grifter, but fanboys eat it up anyway. Luthor never did rate very high on the sanity scale, even in the modern comics. Personally, I thought stabbing Superman had NO PLACE in that movie, which was obviously an homage to the classic silver age adventures. A stab wound belongs in a grittier movie.
I don't advise over-analyzing the Superman films. Either you dig retro superheroes, or you don't.
one of my truly favorite scenes in the whole series. The visual effects are pretty awesome and the metaphor used is completely astonishing...gives you the very clear idea of what will the meaning of Lex's life be.
Him and his father Lionel luther steal every scene. I think hes man's idea of the antichrist without the unholy relation. I love to see him every season struggling against that eventual darkness that will inevitably claim him that which is in his nature. Its as if his eyes are beginning to close; and upon opening only then, will he realise what he can only be. True to himself. True to the darkness that is constant where all his thoughts and motives come from.
That vision is from the episode apocalypse..I think

I like Hackman better.
Hackman's version, is just so Machiavellian and brilliant. Launching a nuclear missile to the San Andreas fault, calculating how to kill Superman, manipulating Zod, he is the ultimate villain in the DC universe.
Mind over Muscle. When it came time to cash in your chips did you think this diseased maniac would be your banker?(something like that)
If you h8 Returns you hate the 1st one.. All Superman did was lift things in the 1st one too. Returns was an homage.

I LOVE Smallville's take on Lex Luthor. So much more interesting than the ineffectual clown in the movies. The movie Luthor is just an excuse for some middle aged, balding actor to ham it up shamelessly. Both Hackman and Spacey were as threatening week old kittens.
This Lex is an three dimensional character . A true match for a guy like Clark Kent.

This comment has received too many negative votes show
Are you serious? Spacey was great as Lex, and I'll agree Hackman wasn't good as Lex. But Spacey kicked a** as Lex Luthor, are you kidding me?
cb1akl 4 years ago
Yes, Spacey wasn't as goofy as Hackman was, but he was just as inept, idiotic and cartoony as Hackman. It really doesn't matter because I HATED "Superman Lifts Things".....I mean Superman Returns anyway.
Smallville may have flaws (cough Lana Lang cough) but at least they get the two main characters right.
archer1949 4 years ago 4
He wasn't in any way "cartoony or inept" like Hackman. For Christ's sake: He stabbed Superman! And the look on his face was pure revenge!
Anyway, I would say Michael Rosenbaum is one of THE BEST portrayals of Lex Luthor, I'm glad with saying that! He deserves that, but I believe Spacey was pretty freaking good as well.

The Luthor from the movies is a crook and a grifter, but fanboys eat it up anyway. Luthor never did rate very high on the sanity scale, even in the modern comics. Personally, I thought stabbing Superman had NO PLACE in that movie, which was obviously an homage to the classic silver age adventures. A stab wound belongs in a grittier movie.
I don't advise over-analyzing the Superman films. Either you dig retro superheroes, or you don't.

one of my truly favorite scenes in the whole series. The visual effects are pretty awesome and the metaphor used is completely astonishing...gives you the very clear idea of what will the meaning of Lex's life be.

I admire his discipline, cunning, ruthlessness and frankness. Anybody who remembers the show PROFIT will know what I'm talking about.

yep. I guess they couldn't afford more special effects, so they bummed some off T3. But it still rules.

I love the Lex Luther character.
Him and his father Lionel luther steal every scene. I think hes man's idea of the antichrist without the unholy relation. I love to see him every season struggling against that eventual darkness that will inevitably claim him that which is in his nature. Its as if his eyes are beginning to close; and upon opening only then, will he realise what he can only be. True to himself. True to the darkness that is constant where all his thoughts and motives come from.

@BlakeVII i think Lex Luthor actually represents Lucipher and Superman represents Jesus/God.
think about it, Superman is infinitely more powerful than Lex just like God is more powerful than Satan.
Satan is extremly cunning like Lex and always trying to bring chaos and destruction.
Satan was jealous of god. Lex was jealous of clark.
Clark doesn't kill Lex just like God doesn't destroy Satan.
and they keep struggling with each other over the fate of humanity.

@CIarKent satan was'nt jealous of god, he was jealous about the way god treated his "new" creation, mankind. Otherwise I enjoyed your parallel
