Probably why it took him so long to fly

[@stupidhandles]

What the dude sat with posters and figurines of himself all around him?, yeah, totally down to earth, doesn't look narcissistic at all......

[@AzguardMike]

you know they wanted him to reprise the Superman role in the CW-verse shows but he said. "I cant actually wear the suit. Its in my contract. No cape. No tights. No flight." Its why in the Smallville finale they had to CGI him in the suit. He flat out refused to wear it. Then on Crisis on Infinite Earths he's like "Sure i'll play Clark Kent... but I wont wear the suit. Deal with it."

[@ROFO79]

@@stupidhandles I don’t think there’s any issue with having your achievements in your home. If he was a recording artist , if he was an athlete, etc…he might have some trophies/ awards. He does podcasting and has some of the memorabilia of what he’s famous for in the background. I don’t think it makes him egotistical to have memories from his profession. Especially since his podcast is centered around the show the show he is showcasing.

[@litterboxstudios]

To Tom, I just have to say that having a bad response, owning it, and learning from it is the best possible result. Super, one might say.

[@lindamawdsley6130]

It’s good that Tom appreciates the lesson in this situation🙂

[@knightwalkr]

Christian bale talked about it. It was a hot day. They had been filming for like 13 hours. Everyone on set was hot, tired and pissed off and the director kept going let’s just try one more time. And he snapped. He said like an hour later he called the guy and apologized. He said the director was like okay let’s just wrap for the day. And the take used on screen was one they had done like 3 hours prior.

Everyone has done something like this, it’s a learning moment that’s why they say patience is a virtue, and it make you relatable. Thanks for sharing. At any given moment we can all have a bad day, for y’all it’s often more public then the rest of us, that has to add to the difficulty.

[@MGDConsumer]

I love watching stuff like this from you guys. I've been a fan, and still watch Smallvile to this day since 2003, and It's so surreal to hear from actors we love talk about these challenges and times where you're stressed and have moments like this on or off set. We're all human and any time a well known actor/actress has a stressful moment recorded and released to the public, everyone makes a big deal about it like it's abnormal. Anyway, I thought this was cool how Tom took ownership of the situation, learned from it, talked about it live, and doesn't make excuses.

This is such a good podcast. Everyone can relate.

[@esteban1973]

Yep. It's a real wake up call when you realize YOUR the A-hole in a situation. People are capable of change, but most of the time are in denial they need it.

[@alex1vid]

Most of us go through something like this in some way and it's just a sobering thing in a way becaise of thr total lack o perspective. I learned so much from the lesson and pausing. But its so hard today with all the cameras and stuff - people have bad days and moments. I totally felt this. Tom's a Good guy man. So many can't aelf reflect its almost a gift to be able to do it or see someone that can.

Good job protecting the individual who needed to change and saw it. To that person I say thank you for recognizing and changing yourself.

[@blazing6string]

It hits different when you hear yourself or see yourself from another view. I used to chew gum on stage when my band played to keep my throat from getting dry for singing. I didn’t feel like I was really chewing much just sort of having it in my cheek but then I saw a video and I am just chomping the crap out of it 100 mph and it looked so horrible and unprofessional and I stopped that very day … I realize it’s not coke but still seeing it objectively was eye opening

[@AngelArm1110]

Ah, I'm so glad you guys talked about all of this. As a musician being in the biz for decades, The I've seen. *and* done many things I'd rather forget about. But you are so right, it's how we grow and learn to smarten up; survival in this industry relies on choosing to not be a dick no matter how burnt out you get.

[@josephvlogsdon]

We’ve all had moments where we lose our temper and instantly regret it. In a show that ran for ten seasons, it was bound to happen at some point. I’m glad Tom had enough self-awareness to realize his mistake and take responsibility for it. Not everyone has that ability.

[@Annie-wn1zx]

I love Michael and Tom just talking about “stuff”. Thank you guys!!! I have “totally lost it” like that too, AND it was justified! The problem is, even though it happened over a decade ago, I feel sick and upset to my core whenever I think about it. Justified or not, it’s awful. “Don’t stack the dynamite”.

I work on Tech support and unfortunately is one of these jobs where the stress can build up quite high on an average day. Having said that, I ask an apology if we handle things quite snarky at times, it is not intentional, it´s something that even the most professional can do from time to time ( I have never blowed up with a customer, but have seen quite a close calls). Great to see that even our heros deal with that kind of issues also

It's nice to see that some people make it out of hollywood and are well adjusted individuals. Your channel actually helps calm me down.

[@jimmycarpenter6612]

It's good to put yourself outside yourself sometimes. I think everyone has almost a shock experience that shows them it's not always about yourself. Like people complaining about being stuck in traffic only to find out the reason is that someone just lost their life in an accident. It has a way of really bringing you back down and humbling you.

[@scottibrown3274]

I honestly feel like when it’s been a long day, nothing is going right, you’re tired and stressed and just want to go home, I think going off in anger is more of a catharsis. And then once it happens and you calm down you have that “I shouldn’t have said that” moment

i first watched this on a recommendation of my ex-girlfriends uncle. I watched it again when i got married. When my son was a toddler he would waych it with me. Through out the years we would watch it together. And now his 13. We are on season 3. Rewatching it. I hope to watch it with him and his kids some day if he has a famiy of his own. Thanks to the people that made Smallville awesome and a catalyst in forming new lasting memories

[@corporealghoul]

I dont watch podcats... but i love the shorts and small videos hitting my feed. I wish i watched smallville while it was first airing. I didnt watch smallville until i was maybe 30 like 5 years ago. Or maybe it was better because man. That viewing took me back. It was so nostalgic even though i had never seen the show prior. I remember seeing all the actors faces around that time so seeing them in show for the first time was truly awesome.

[@cliffnickerson2299]

How many times do we judge someone for a rage out video online? That's like that person's worst moment. And the whole internet treats them like that's how they are every second of every day. I treated some guys at the hardware store like crap a few years back, and I actually went back and talked to the guys and said I was sorry for it. Middle of a project, hungry, stressed, and I took it out on them. The guys were cool about it, but I still look back at my behavior with a lot of shame. We should all be a lot less judgemental when these freakouts appear. Everybody has their moments, but most of us are lucky enough that it doesn't hit the internet.

[@billymoore7182]

I also own season 8 of Smallville, alongside the complete series.

[@geraldjuvejr.6171]

I agree about changing yourself once you've heard yourself on tape. For a time (still a teenage kid at the time). I was a real jerk to my sister closest in age to me. It unintentionally got caught on tape. My Dad played it back for me. I absolutely did not like the guy on the tape and made sure to change. I'm so glad I did. My sister is the best (both of them are).

[@hotkofy08]

I’ll be honest. I’m not a podcast guy. I loved smallville through high school and well after. I’ve seen every episode. This podcast might be better than the show. With the focus on reality, mental health, and the raw interactions between everyone. I’m hooked. Thanks for this.

[@BigNoseDog]

Tom Cruise had a similar moment during the filming of the last Mission Impossible movie. He blew up at members of the crew for violating Covid protocols. It’s hard to imagine that such a burst of anger was the result of just one incident. What’s more likely is things were building up. Several things may have been going wrong and finally it just reached a boiling point.

[@mycenia]

I think Cruise's outburst was more understandable and he explained himself well. So many people depended on that production succeeding, on that set and off, that anything short of total compliance was selfishness.

[@PiDsPagePrototypes]

So Cruise blew up because crew were ignoring the health and safety of those around them, and doing stuff that could shut down the production, affecting everyone's earnings? Like him or not for his off screen stuff, he is respected for his proffessionalism and commitment to the safety and wellbeing of his team, and not just those in front of the lens like so many other actors.

[@JohnSmith-gb5vg]

Pretty sure it was the millions of dollars riding on the only movie set in production at the time. Of which most of the money was his and he had gotten special license to keep the production going as long as protocol was followed. And he was yelling to be heard, it was all the crew and outside.

[@bobbylawson2177]

I got nick named in Highschool Superman and it followed me to the point I have a collection of superman. I forgot the reason why I was called that for 20 years until I hit my bottom and realized Supermans main power was calmness and leadership to sacrifice for others. I now proudly continue that nickname with my Family without any direction from me. Superman/Clark has always been so the right thing regardless of the sacrifice and that's why in a world wide poll asking what symbol do you know, The Cross was number one and S on the chest logo was number two shows how powerful this ideal really is. Thanks Tom for being down to earth and I understand why they casted you.

Everyone has done this, everyone has a frustration moment that explodes, and it is usually when you are younger and why does it happen? Exactly has Tom said, we don't have all the information and we lack patience to understand what is happening. We lack the ability to see everything at all times. How do you get better at this? Humility and age.

[@DarthBeaman]

Definitely doesn't need to be leaked unless it's happened more than once and probably a few times. Like what happened to Tim on set, he learned a lesson in the then and the there. He takes it with him to this day . Tim and Michele. There both great!

Season 10 on smallville. I was special ability for a scene that was in studio with tom directing the scene. It was a background video that was to play in a fetish nightclub. A scene i was also used in. We had shot the scene for the better part of the day and broke for lunch. Only to find that the camera operator had accidently erased the entire footage we had shot and Tom lost his shit. We got asked to come back to set shortly after and we shot as much as we could again from that point. It made for an extremely long ...tense day.

Also Christian Bale apologized to the guy and took him out to dinner. He did a wonderful radio interview where he agreed he was an a**hole and was not making any excuses. The guy was being incredibly unprofessional and distracting. I've been an Actor where I've had to give an intensely emotional performance and in my eye-line is a key grip looking bored at me. I've been polite about it, but I totally understand the anger/frustration especially if you're trying to get into the proper state and the clock is running out AND you're feeling the pressure of being the reason this movie will either succeed or fail.

[@ParadiseVids]

It’s interesting that Michael feels that someone filming your worst day and publicizing it is a good thing. I feel the opposite. If someone did that to me, I would feel a bit vindicated because the act of tattling and trying to ruin someone’s reputation is SO much worse than that explosion most of us (if not all of us) experience to one degree or another, I wouldn’t be so much apologizing as I would be wanting to know who violated my privacy and who was getting off on this. As a fan, I don’t want to every celebrity’s bad day. I don’t want to see how awful an industry it is that they can’t even have a bad day without it being leaked. That’s a sick industry to be in. There are going to be fewer and fewer talented actors and actresses if they are not protected and given a proper environment in which to work in. Have an on set psychiatrist, I don’t care, but the actors need to be in an environment where they are not double crossed.

[@Gunnumn]

This reminds me of a phase in my life (quite recently) where i would lose my cool and break something whether its a controller or headset. One day i lost my shit and destroyed my cell phone. I felt so dumb after the fact because not only i had to buy a new phone, but the head of our plan was having brain surgery (no pun intended) so i had no choice but to begin a new phone plan which was a new expense on top of my mortgage and my car. Since then, i never freaked out like that again. Whenever im in a heated moment, i remove myself situation and collect my thoughts. Havent had a meltdown ever since.
