Minemrys:
series u mean? Cos the show relied too much on using krypt0nite as a plot device t0o many times. And t0o many love triangles. Smallville was good but saying the pinnacle for cb films?

Which comic book TV series was on the level of smallville back then

Minemrys:
those were cart0ons. And mind u, they never achieved the acclaim smallville did. The show had its m0ments bk then but ryt n0w, it wouldn't last on air.

Minemrys:
the questi0n is, which CB tv series ran parallel to Smallville back then? Listen, smallville was a g0od show, had its bad m0ments but i c0rrected thekingishere n0ti0n of it being the "pinnacle of CB movies". Yea, the idea for arrow came as a result of smallville and the pace it set for introducing other dc elements. But it being a pinnacle of c0micb0ok m0vies? C0me on, it was g0od as a series bk then but can't be measured with CB movies that existd bk then.

wth are you saying He said it was the Pinnacle of CB series(he said movies but it's a naija cliché) back then...it was even better than many actual CB movies but that's not what we talking about
What he said is valid and I don't even get your argument

Mtchew...you are what wb will release on October 4th bro

He said back then...back then bro,even though so many of the graphics would be archaic if you compare it to now but the story and acting is still 100% better than many CB series right now

So I watched Pennyworth and it was great.

Pennyworth got his revenge, finally!! But still, it wasn't enough to fill the void in his heart.

Some questions though.

Why, was the other lady willing to risk her life to have revenge for pennyworth's girlfriend?

I thought she was the one that held her captive in episode 2 or am I missing something

Also, why is no one bothered about the devil in England? I expected Thomas Wayne to say something to the CIA about it. Although they might not believe him

I don't know why you are wasting time with minemrys.

Minemrys:
bro, the storyline of the 1st six seas0ns wouldn't have measured to anything d0ne presently. What am saying is The series relied too much on c0nvenient plot devices throughout its 1st 6 seas0ns. We kept seeing show h0rned elements such as meteor freaks, krypt0nite being in every epis0de, they never justified Lex's hatred for Clark and they just made him outrightly the bad guy. The meteor freak plot device worked well in seas0n 1 0nly for the writerz to keep forcing it in at every seas0n. Then came the all t0o c0nvenient storyline of Lana Lang's grand aunt who was a witch. C0me on? Then cave drawings by a certain tribe predicting the c0ming of Kal El and his battle with Naman. Mhen, those st0rylines were all t0o c0nvenient. You couldn't go abt an epis0de without watching Kent falling becos of krypt0nite. They couldn't c0me up with reas0nable ways for villains to beat Clark without using krypt0nite. There were epis0des that made sense but the writerz played to save with the show at the early stage. Would u c0mpare smallville's storyline with that of Kyle xy? The series had a structured story with a linear plot that followed. Smallville though picked up in seas0n 6 when they decided to delve deeper into dc lore.

You think smallville is better than smallville cos of kryptonite Lmao

You have no point here bro...I don't see it,nobody sees it and you on the brink of sounding delusional bro

Minemrys:
pard0n? Where did i say this? How did i even say this?


n0w i see u d0n't even undastand my argument. That guy said, "smallville was the pinnacle of c0mic bo0k 'm0vies' and 'tv series". I said, yea as for bringing abt the arrowverse, but No, as it barely did anything worth significant to be a pinnacle of cb m0vies. That was my argument and i listed why.'

Sykes really loved Esme o,it was genuine

Mtchew...you are what wb will release on October 4th bro

pu7pl3:
But you can't name a CB series that had more impact or was more interesting than it

hulk616:
Wait, are they gays in pennyworth ?

It was platonic

Minemrys:
oga, my argument no be abt series. The matter na when my nigga begin dy rate smallville as the pinnacle of m0vies, and then series. Naim me i c0me talk xay, to say him leave am at series, i for gree but when the guy c0me join cb m0vies join, i say no way, smallville no fit be the pinnacle for cb m0vies. Na where the tori dy wey u no undastand since. Naim i begin explain why smallville no fit be pinnacle for cb m0vies. I hope say u grab ba?

Minemrys:
lmfao, u just want s0me0ne dat will be agreeing to everytin u say. No way. I would make it hard for u lol. On a serious n0te, smallville was g0od, had its m0ments but then failed in s0 many ways that had it been introduced today, it wouldn't live up to the hype of bk then. N0t cos of the cgi or acting; they were perfect, but cos of its t0o many plot c0nveniences fr0m its incepti0n. Like, the series made Lex the bad guy fr0m the way they made the characterz treat him even b4 he was a bad guy. They never gave us Lex's perspective or why he was all t0o attracted to Kent. Story c0nvenience: the bad guy is the bad guy becos he is the bad guy.

pu7pl3, pennyworth episode 8 is making mad sense, that is the best episode of the season mehn, i enjoyed it too much.

I just love how unpredictable the whole season is

pu7pl3:

emmy2807:
I think Esme charmed the lady, she was pained that Esme was killed before she had the chance to make Esme her actual friend.
Thomas wayne like Martha is still pretty shaken up with his encounter, and he just wants to act like it never happened, But actually there is nothing to say, "hey, i had an encounter with the devil" no one will believe that.

TheKingIsHere:
Why will I want someone to agree to everything I say?
Na wa o

pu7pl3:
off topic tho...which movie will you say was the Pinnacle of cbms back then(between 2001-2006)

Minemrys:
1st of, u ask what the meaning 'pinnacle' is, then u ask; 'in what aspect?'; the pinnacle of the early cbm era or the m0dern cbm era? By that time frame, i'd say the pinnacle of c0mic b0ok m0vies is x men. It was the film that ushered an era where CBMs are allowed to feature real world themes and place them into superhero ficti0n. Hence, we started seeing alot m0re of CB characterz being taken seriously. As for Smallville, its greatest achievement was inspiring the arrowverse. It had no influence on c0mic bo0k m0vies but it did influence s0me tv series like the arrowverse and again, inspired the pr0ducerz of Merlin to produce a show abt the mythical arthurian legend.

Spiderman was the Pinnacle of cbm movies not X-Men and smallville was the Pinnacle of cbm series back then
