| Smallville: The Complete Eighth Season. Season 8 introduced the marvelous Tess Mercer (as excellently portrayed by Cassidy Freeman) who filled the shoes of an MIA Lex Luthor with more charisma and grace than, dare I say it, the great Michael Rosenbaum in the past couple seasons.
Also among the characters this year is Davis "Doomsday" Bloome, who is taken to the next level by Sam Witwer, who plays the role in such a way that the viewers can actually sympathize for the tortured, lonely murderer that Davis has unfortunately become.
I give five stars for this season because of Erica Durance's portrayal of Lois Lane, the best ever, and for the episodes with Zatanna, Maxima and the Legion. Alisson Mack creation of a futuristic Frankenstein bride in the Brainiac episode also deserves five stars. Smallville is the only show where we can see actors playing such legendary characters of DC universe as Maxima, Zatanna and the Legion of Superheroes, so this box is a must for DC fans.
I have only words of praise for all the actors who give their best for the show. Smallville should be renamed Metropolis by now because there is no way they could go back to the early days of a teenage superboy at high school. They are in Metropolis now and must leave Smallville behind. |

Thank you for dropping in. Pulp Fiction Trivia
Jules:
Tarantino originally wrote the role of Jules specifically for Samuel L. Jackson, however it was almost given to Paul Calderon after a great audition. When Jackson heard this, he flew to LA and re-auditioned, getting back the part he was supposed to play. Calderon ended up with a cameo as Paul, the bartender.Vince Vega:
When Vince visits Lance for the first time he is complaining about some jerk that supposedly keyed his car. It was allegedly Butchs revenge for the argument the two had when early on they met at Marsellus club.
Mia Wallace:
Mia Wallace is barefoot for most of the movie.
The Wolf:
Tarantino wrote "The Wolf" character specifically for Harvey Keitel.
The Briefcase:
Speculation abounds as to the nature of the mysterious glowing contents of the case:
The most persistent theory (most usually attributed to a friend of a friend who saw it posted on a message board by someone whose brother had read a report of a radio interview with Tarantino himself) is that it is Marcellus Wallaces soul. The story goes that when the Devil takes a persons soul, it is removed through the back of the head (this isnt part of any known religion, but this is what the message board posters say). When we see the back of Marcellus's head he has a Band-Aid covering the precise spot indicated by tradition for soul removal. Perhaps Marcellus sold his soul to the devil which would also explain why the combination to open the briefcase is 666.
Beatles Trivia:
Though "The Ed Sullivan Show" was the first TV program in America to host the Beatles, (February 9, 1964), ABC and CBS shot concert footage of the band in November 1963 as Beatlemania swept England. On December 7, 1963, "The CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite" featured footage of Beatles fans at a concert, and on Friday, January 3, 1964, Jack Paars show was the first to broadcast footage of them on a major U.S. show, when Paar played a clip of the Beatles performing "She Loves You." At that point Paar was not a fan, and he disparaged their haircuts on air. |
