I hate to make posts that plug an item or site, but I have no clue if anyone is even going to see this anyway. I absolutely loved this movie. It’s a music video for Jimmy Eat World‘s song “23″. Only it’s from smallville. Yes, I know the vast majority of fan videos on the internet are Awful (i’ve watched alot of them), but this guy Ryan is serious about his work. This video took him two weeks of his spare time and it really shows. It’s an 80 Meg download but well worth the time it takes to leech. If you ever wondered why anyone likes the show, this is as clear an answer as you are liable to get. Two links below are to the file on the server here, and a link to the forum where it was originally posted.

Ok. After you have mentioned Smallville in the past, I ran across it while channel surfing. I determined Clark has mystical powers, but never did I discover he is semi-superman, as I see now in the music video. Once, you said I would like the show, but you gave more enticement. If you had, I would have become a regular viewer.
Who is the bald guy? Is there another kid with similar “attributes?” What about the show makes it sp special to you? Do you wish you were Clark? Certainly it isn’t that 2 foot tall brunette who wets your appetite each week.
Strangely, the show is on the Family Channel. Perplexing.
Hey Hawk, ok, I’ll do my best to explain. Smallville is about Clark Kent’s journey to finally becoming superman. The Bald Guy is Lex Luthor in his mid 20′s.
Smallville is a total escape for me. An hour a week I get to completely ignore myself and jack into other’s emotions. Fictional Characters, yes, but they are portrayed as vividly as any I have seen. Aesthetically, I love Lex Luthor’s clothes, and i enjoy staring at the girls in the cast. Definitely a big plus.
Most of all, the show has all these amazing super abilities and villians and otherworldly situations in it, but it refuses to be about them. The show is about the people and the issues they face when dealing with one another on so many different levels. It shows us that inside everyone is part hero and part villain, and we can choose which aspect we allow to rule our lives each day. Even superman with all the abilities in the world, still has challenges he finds almost insurmountable, and responsibilities like anyone else. The show speaks to me directly saying, Even though we may not be able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, we can create miracles in the lives of those around us each day just by being ourselves.
It’s a very positive message and is presented in a delightfully entertaining way. You can rent the DVD’s at blockbuster if you are interested.
Oh, for if I only that illustrious promo had been given when you first suggested Smallville. Even though I am able to jump over buildings and hurl tractors across farmland, the show will still provide entertainment.
I will look at Lex’s clothes. I liked the long coat he was wearing.
Seeking schedule…
Tonight, Wednesday at 8 p.m. on WB. possibly 7 p.m. check http://thewb.com for local channels. Starting in the fall it is moving to thursday. Hit me back with anything about Lex’s clothing.
I loved the video! It was so good! I love this show! Thanks for posting the link! As for the summation of Smallville, Well said! I agree with you whole-heartedly, except I enjoy staring at Tom
… there’s such good eye candy on the show!
Wow that was a great video! He really did a great job on it. I like that it shows parts of the superman movie and what is in store for him in the future. I can see why it took a long time to make. Two thumbs UP!
Thanks everyone for the great feedback on my video. I am glad that you enjoyed it. Clark Kent is my favorite character on the show, and I wanted to show him in a Superman like light since a lot of people are skeptical about the direction that Smallville is taking with the character. It took me two weeks to make but feedback like this makes it feel like it was worth it.
Thanks again!!
