Ok, I'm going to give this one a review. Miyagawa (talk) 17:18, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Here goes. I remember this particular episode after watching ten years of Smallville to get to it - and then being disapointed because of the reused CGI and no full on body shot of Clark in the costume! :)

Yeah, the ending is kinda poopy, but I'm not going to lie, I really liked this episode!--Gen. Quon (Talk) 18:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Lead/Infobox

You've linked season 5 in the infobox instead of season 10.

Fixed.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 18:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Plot

I know Darkseid wasn't played really by anyone, but doesn't Granny Goodness, Desaad and Gordon Godfrey have actors that should be bracketed? I'd also bracket Michael Rosenbaum after the first mention of Lex as well.

I added all of them to the infobox on the right-hand side. Would that work?--Gen. Quon (Talk) 18:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Filming

General query on the episode rather than anything you included. Do you know anything about them reusing CGI from Superman Returns in the sequence where Clark pushes away Apokolips? I always thought it was the same shot as Superman pushing away the kryptonite infused land mass in the film. I've done some Googling and I guess it might have just been my poor memory of the film that made it seem similar. Did you ever come across anything that might suggest they re-used cgi?

Hmmm, I haven't heard anything about that, to be honest. I looked through some reviews and also did see anything. You might ping User:Bignole, as he might know more.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 18:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I had not heard anything about them reusing the CGI from Superman Returns. If a basic google seach doesn't yield it, it probably did not happen. :/ BIGNOLE (Contact me) 18:55, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

General points

No dash related issues.
Just two duplicate links - one in the lead as you link Brian Peterson twice, and the last sentence of Filming shows a duplicate link to Christopher Reeve.

Fixed!--Gen. Quon (Talk) 18:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

External links - you've linked to the Finale in the IMDB link, but called it Reckoning.

Fixed!--Gen. Quon (Talk) 18:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, so placing this one on hold for a week. Everything else looks good - the referencing is quality as either they're obviously reliable or else it's direct interviews or quotes from the producers/cast etc. So no problems there as far as I can see.

Thanks for the review. How does it look?--Gen. Quon (Talk) 18:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Great, everything looks solid. Happy for this to be marked as a Good Article now. Miyagawa (talk) 19:21, 3 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
