MR Officially leaves SV!

I F'n love this guy:
And Rosenbaum's statement:
Dear Smallville Fans,
Well, it's been seven wonderful years. Your support is what has made Smallville so successful, and I appreciate you all more than you know.
That being said, it is time for me to start the next chapter of my life and career. I hope that I gave you some enjoyment over the years, and that you found my portrayal of Lex Luthor to be satisfying. I am truly grateful, as Smallville fans are the best fans out there. I sincerely hope that you will continue to follow my career through my hair growth period and beyond.
I'm very excited about what the future holds, but certainly, Smallville will always be a part of me. I will definitely miss the greatest crew in the world, and the wonderful cast that has been like a family to me.
Thank you Al and Miles for creating the show. Thank you writers, producers, directors and editors. Thanks Tollin, Robbins and Davola for being there for the pilot. Thank you Peter Roth for employing me for ten years. Lisa Lewis, I miss you already. John Glover, thanks for helping me feel more comfortable touching other actors, while acting. Bizarre, but helpful.
Mostly, I want to thank Greg Beeman for directing the "Oh Sherry" video, by Steve Perry, back in the 80's.
Thanks crew. Thanks fans. Thanks Smallville.
I love you all,
Michael Rosenbaum


I think he'll definitely be
I think he'll definitely be back for the last few episodes of the series. Michael is as much a geek as the rest of us and I think he would definitely come back to make sure the show wraps the way it should. That being said, it's going to be very strange watching Smallville without him.
He showed more class than
He showed more class than Gouh and Millar. He at least ACKNOWLEDGED them in his statement, even though the two completely OMITTED mention of ANY cast member in their exit statement.
Michael didn't mention his
Michael didn't mention his cast-mates either. I was surprised at that.
However, I see it really difficult to have him back more than 1 or 2 at best. And probably for the series finale....
Yea he had some nice things
Yea he had some nice things to say to the crew and the fans. As i said in the smallville spoiler thread and some other sites i hope he is open to do a few episodes like atless 3 episodes. You know the season preimere, an episode in the middle and then the season/series finale. Hopefully he does want to appear a little bit or atless come back and direct an episode loved his directing in freak.
I am sorry to see MR go, but
I am sorry to see MR go, but he did say he will miss the wonderful cast that has been like a family to him.
Much nicer than the farewell from Gough and Millar. They didn't thank the cast at all.
I always thought that MR and TW seemed like pretty good friends. On every gag reel you see the two of them cutting up like crazy. MR is a nut. I wish him the best.
It wouldn't hurt my feelings if he came back for a few episodes, but that would mean cutting his hair again.
Yea that is the issue there
Yea that is the issue there maybe he gets work and then they offer him to do a guest spot and he doesnt want to do it because he has to shave his head and all that. Or maybe they could try a bald cap but it probably wouldnt look good.
Does anyone know where i can
Does anyone know where i can find pictures of Brooke Burke?
sigh. Why'd this post get
sigh. Why'd this post get deleted, cant I say season 8 is going to suck?

Sorry, didn't mean to. You
Sorry, didn't mean to. You came in here with attitude and I'm not sure if you're on the up and up or just wanting to make trouble.
Ha! I find pictures of
Ha! I find pictures of Kelly Brook instead!
Well I have no intention of
Well I have no intention of starting a war or anything. Im a member on most Superman fan sites, as I love me some Superman. I'm also fond of dragons. I think smallville has lost it entirely this season. The cast knows as much thats why everyone is jumping ship. Staying another season I think will only hinder wellings career and future film opportunities. 2 years ago I would have LOVED a smallville movie. After this last season I can't see how theyd make it work. They have to go to alternate universes to give us anything that resembles Superman.

I ARE ALSO LOVE DRAGONS! Oh
I ARE ALSO LOVE DRAGONS! Oh i love for to see Tom Willing fight a dragon with his chisel. This would be the top awesome!
I think smallville has lost
No-one can argue with this. I hated season 7 and if they bring in Doomsday, I'll probably hate season 8 too....
Who are Doomsday?
