The Coming of Lord Darkseid...

Editorial Opinion

Hidy Ho guys and dolls, Im new to writing editorials and such but I am gonna give it a shot and see how well its received. As of late, I've been pondering who would be a truly deserving candidate to don the role of Darkseid for Smallville. Now I realize that there are a fair amount of you out there that dont like Smallville, or the way they have done things (Deadpool72, Grif, Lee at times and Intruder, you guys are awesome and I respect your opinions,I often laugh my ass off at the jokes). I, myself, have found myself at times at a loss at some of the things they've done, *cough completely desecrating Doomsday and Slade and Deadshot cough* but the general amount of time, I rather enjoy the show. I digress, however, I'd personally like to see Michael Clark Duncan get the role. Yes I get it that he was Kingpin in Daredevil, which I wont get into, but he does have the build and size of ol Rockface. Im sure there are plenty of other actors in the business but MCD stuck out in my mind. If you guys have any other ideas for actors who could don the Omega Beams then feel free to express it, I know what some will say though, that he shouldnt be on SV, which if they screw it up, then your definitely right. Im gonna wait till, what, May to see how they do with it. Happy Holidays guys.

Your friendly Kryptonian BigDaddy

Yo big @ Cool Editorial!

Gotta say MCD would own the part, more so tho for a JLA movie or SUPERMAN one!

I dunno, just can't see CW doing DARKSEID any justice!

Problem with MCD for Smallville is, he'd likely not do TV, perfect or near perfect with CGI of course for the big screen!



(Yeah I know thats Doomsday lol)


Yeah damn what they did to DOOMSDAY, DEADSHOT and DEATHSTROKE!

Heh heh, they all start with D!!!

Damn, so does Darkseid LOL! ; P

CW crucified Doomsday, I kept holding out for them to make him look like the version from the animated Supes/Doomsday movie but alas I was wrong. Aaaaand that 20 second fight with Clark was the straw that broke the camels back. Last i remember of Slade/Deathstroke he wore a suit almost like Deadshot and Deadpools but it was black and gold. yeah, they made him a damn general in SV. MCD would probably agree to only the big screen if he did get the role.

@ bigdaddysmalls

lol,i was formely known as "deadpool72",i am "marvel72" now.

as for "darkseid",as much as i would love to see "darkseid" portrayed properly i can't see c.w pulling it off.

so save darkseid for the big screen.

ahhh hey man, nice Apocalypse avatar. CW has a notorious history of pulling disasters out their ass and pissing us off. DD, Deadshot and Deathstroke are prime examples. lol, Darkseid would do nicely for Snyder's MOS.

it's a t.v. show, and he's still young enough to do some action so i'm throwing Clancy Brown in as my choice, can't see MCD be a god after Green mile, but he is a good actor, maybe Ving Rhames though.

Green Mile was a different genre all together @Garlen, Ving Rhames could possibly do it but MCD has the size perfectly, plus his voice is deep so that could be a good factor if Snyder were to consider him.

@BigDaddySmalls I understand that but i just really don't see him as physically portraying someone who's mean. He performance in Green Mile was very deep and Oscar Worthy which for my mind set replaces his status as being a BMF. He is a good actor and if he does get it it's good but I'd really like to see someone else especially for a T.V. Series, and since Clancy Brown hasn't appeared on Smallville, i think his appearance as Darkseid would help redeem the show for some and continue to be great for others.

I doubt it will really matter who the actor is because he'll be in heavy make up.

There is no other choice for the voice of darkside than the original, which is Michael Ironside. Nuff said.

Ironside would be EPIC if he did the voice, but he's already been on as Lois' Poppa, and Clancy Brown isnt bulky enough, Darkseid is around 8 feet tall and built like crazy.

@BigDaddySmalls I think Brown could wear a muscle suit, and simple trick photography would make Darskeid look 8 ft tall hell they could make him 10 ft tall. Plus, i really really think he could be great for it, or at least the voice of Darkseid with a separate actor for the Physical work.

If they have a voice over for him they'd do good with using Ironside as the voice, seeing as he voiced him for TAS and JL and JLU. But a Clancy Brown cameo would be pretty good. Have him and Rosenbaum in the same scene.

BobGarlen - 12/30/2010, 1:51 PM
@BigDaddySmalls we are too familier to Ironside's voice. Fans of the show would recognize it as Gen.Lane, and would thus take away from the impact of it. So no to Ironside's voice over, maybe if Darkseid took over Gen Lane's body and used it for a body on earth. Then i would understand. But still Brown hasn't done anything on Smallville so why not give him this? Earlier they could've made him Lionel Luthor, but now i really want him as Darkseid.
