I always told myself that there is some kryptonian tech in his glasses that makes him look and sound a little different until Clark tells them his secret afterwards they finally see through despite the tech. If they just say this everyone will be like “ehh good enough”
@@kevsdigitalartsmore3743 Not good enough. That'd just be lazy hand waving. If Superman wants to be anonymous, he should wear a mask. It's the only thing that makes sense.
the bravery of Lana from Smallville is portrayed very well here. It kinda makes it seem like Kristin Krueks Lana Lang grew up to become Emmanuelle Chriqui's Lana.
Most people didn't like her at start of series but have said she has started growing on her, i didn't mind her at start and she defiantly gotten better as series goes on this episode was my favorite. when she volunteered, she was so brave. this show is so good, hard to believe its CW.
Yes, certainly. I have often noticed that myself that Kristin's Lana and Emmanuelle's Lana have many similar characteristics. Such as a great bravery, kindness and compassion. Not to mention that they have very similar looks as well. I would say Kristin's Lana had a more growth overall.
i dont think it was bravery that lead her to it but guilt it was her and her husban that lead the people to edge and as a moral persion shes not able to pass the buck
In the silver age DC comics, they said that Clark wanted to appear weaker than Superman and that he used super-hypnosis magnified by the lenses of his eyeglasses to "convince" people that he was shorter and more frail than Superman and that he did not look like Superman but just a generic guy.
thats acually one of the ways some of the writers expalin why it takes loise so long and he acually has to tell her he has complete control of his bodes musels so he tense some in his face wall relaxing others gibeing his face a differnt look
She literally *dated* him and she still can't recognize him without his glasses! Either the tight costume is just so distracting (possible) or else Lana and Lois share a common genetic defect when it comes to facial recognition!
I don't know if you've seen Invicible but Atom Eve doesn't even wear glasses and yet no one recognizes her. She explains it this way that no one expects to see a superhero at school so nobody recognizes her. It always depends on how somebody is seen. Superman is being seen as larger than life. No one would expect him to be a reporter at a newspaper or his neighbor or the guy she dated in highschool.
@@andreas.grundler - I would buy that argument if Lana (and Lois, Jordan and Jonathan) didn't know Clark *extremely* well. But he's *not* just some guy that they passed on the street once.
@@daniels7907 That makes it even less expected. It’s be hard to believe that the most powerful and inspiring man in the world is your dorky high school ex that you went without seeing for years.
You know…l the fact Lana does this… am I the only one seeing Lana remembering Lara’s memories while in her body… the interactions that include Lois as “Superman”’s wife…? If we go two or more seasons I can see Lana remembering and putting two and two together.
no human and kyrption mids are to differnt they may look the same but its like two laptops by the same company that are 3 gens apart same basic set up but the newer one is much stronger and faster its covered in the comics that kents able to do multipal extremely complex taxes such as reading something in a different laugh for a example the odyssey in the oruiginal ancient Greek, wall doing collage level math and rebuilding a plane engine, omn top of that Clarks mother belong to the science guild she had a above average IQ wall lana is smart shes more or less avarge i highly doubt shed be able to sort through the trouight prossess of Lara it would overload her head like tryiong to play halo on a orginal game boy
Wow look at that both Clark and Superman have facial hair for some reason, wait could it be that.... Clark and Superman use the same facial hair growth product?
So much cheese.. They need a host. If they don't get a host, they can't win. Lana volunteers, after learning they need someone to do so. And they try and talk her out of it, wasting time.
becouse she is a cilival a persion the army was formed to protect they need to at least try on top of that its a kanssaes town a state in the part of america that has the most enlistments for the miltary as in hey access the dod datta baise find me a solider solir or marine from small vill superman they are here go get them
"Yeah, can be a little weird. Come on."
Lois was more probably more like "you actually met him every day in your childhood tho. How weird, huh?"
They can compare notes as to the power of a pair of glasses to completely change the appearance of a man they've both been with.
The fact that Lana can't piece together that Clark is Superman when they sound and look almost exactly alike mind boggles me
I know she has known him for over 20 years you think she would have figured it out

"Almost"? They're literally the same person!

Lana "He's here"
It's funny when you remember he's her ex-boyfriend

Yeah you're correct about Lana's character growth
Well Kristin Kruek version actually grew a lot more than this from season 1 to season 7.

im just going to pretend superman has the ability to make himself look different to different people

Everyone in that universe shares it because the writers deem it so.

Isn't that cute your ex became your mom
You should watch season 7 of the Flash, Barry's mom became his daughter
Too bad mother Kent did do it maybe they could have blended their minds and became mother Kent El
Lois Lane and 'dem aviators.
So badass that an armed soldier just nods as she strides past him.
@@daniels7907 cuz they know she is the General's daughter.
@@illimattic - Which probably only convinces the soldier that she's likely to snatch his rifle and use it to beat him if he gets in her way.
She failed her city lol
Yeah, Oliver might have been a problem here.
Lana Lang you have failed this town
We need more of this comment but about politicians.
where I have seen General Lane before?
Nip/Tuck
@@daniels7907 oh yeah! I watched it back in 2008...

Clark was understandably creeped out by the idea of his ex-girlfriend literally becoming his mother.

Lois is the 5 star general of the army.
