...when a preview makes you desparately want to go see a movie. If you can't tell, I just finished watching the entire 10 minute Batman Begins preview. When it was first on, I only caught a minute or two. (Thankfully, Dad taped Smallville and the preview.)

I haven't been to a theatre in 11 years--I'm going to just wait patiently until Batman Begins is released on DVD.

And also, does anyone know what happened to Teland's website? The mood theme doesn't seem to work anymore.

And I like Smallville now. Even though I haven't a clue what was going on in the season finale.

And now, a few dozen questions from me. Since I'm new to watching the show. They're going behind the cut because there are bound to be spoilers.

Is Lionel possessed by Brainiac now? (I wondered if that was the case when they showed his eyes and those numbers. Has Brainiac ever appeared on Smallville before?)

Was Lana possessed at one point in the beginning of the episode? Is that why she killed that woman? And I finally found out who the voice of Jor--El is. Zod from Superman II.

I kept thinking that it was the voice that Cordelia used when she spoke to Angelus telepathically in season 4 of Angel. Guess I was wrong.

And when Clark is standing in the middle of the snow, is that going to become the Fortress of Solitude? And does Chloe know Clark has powers? Does Lana know? How old is Lex--he looks a lot older than a teenager?

The first full episode of Smallville I ever watched involved Chloe walking into a house at the end of the episode, followed by it blowing up. It was apparently season 3's finale, and I asssumed she died. Apparently not, since she's in the season 4 finale. (I keep catching the finales.)

When will part 2 of the season finale air? Or is it just a cliffhanger until the new season?

Is there a good website that summarizes the episodes? Sort of like Loey's Guide To Buffy, I mean.
