couldn't they have made the conflict between Jor-El and Zor-El philosophical or political or something? *Sighs*
Somehow that's what I'd (naively) expected. That would have been SO much better!

And it would actually rock if he got Lex to help him, so of course he won't.
Yeah. :( But at least they'll give us potential for a futurefic where Superman calls Lex out on cloning Kal and Lex replies 'yeah, still cooler than cloning your MOM!'
