30 Days & 30 Nights - “How Many Times You Been Tied Up?”
Henry's notes:
Opening: Love Clark and Lois in bed. They’re my cozy mom and dad. Great shot of Superman flying out of the house over the farm. Very cool call back to Superman flying around the world in Superman The Movie. Love that he’s flying in a small circle to pick up speed. What was happening to him as he was going through? Was he breaking apart? Was he transforming into Bizarro?
Jordan: Training montage! Just needed “you’re the best around” or “eye of the tiger.” Disturbing but also comforting seeing the world struggling without Superman.
Lois/Sam/Jordan: Sorry Lois, I love you but I’m with Jordan. Chill, he has to help. It’s what Clark would do. Great voice of reason from Sam Lane. I do like that Lois is getting close to finding the dealers. Glad Jonathan finally came to his senses. It was getting silly. Really enjoy seeing Lois do her reporter getting into life threatening predicaments thing.
Jordan’s heat vision/freeze breath/knockout punch was a total video game move. The little smile, very reminiscent of Superman Returns, bullet eyeball scene. Sorry Jordan, you want to be a superhero and keep your secret, you can’t have a girlfriend. Read a comic book.
Irons Family: Steel helping out is great. Love that the news report called him “new Man of Steel?” Seems like lots of planes have engine failure in Superman/Supergirl’s universes. Also, again, where is Supergirl?
I like that Natalie can fix a super-suit and interdimensional space ship but can’t make waffles.
Natalie is mad at her dad flirting with Lana. Chill out kid. I can’t deal with her. Remember how last season I could barely stand the Cushings. This is how I feel about Natalie. I want to like her so much but instead of showing how awesome she is in the shop with her tools and tech it’s just blah blah drama with her. It’s annoying. I like John’s explanation. It’s totally reasonable. He’s entitled to move on. Having said that it was pretty upsetting seeing alternate Lois with baby Natalie and John Henry losing it.
Lana’s election: We laughed about election day coming but now that we know Superman has been gone for 1 month it makes sense. They don’t have projections on the local news? 57-43 what?
Funny to me that Coach Toxic Masculinity is supporting Lana.
Jeez, really hitting us over the head with the whole “Divorced dad sad apartment” cliche.
End: Whaaaat Superboy is Jonathan in Bizarro world because it’s the opposite of Jordan!
