was anyone else irritated in this second season episode? since when did al capone pronounce the e in his last name??? he didn't and it is not pronounced.
Reading the paper can really be depressing. Mr. Dithers fired Dagwood again.
Yeah, what was the deal with that?
I have NEVER heard anyone else say it like that.
You would think that, with this guy being SO FAMOUS, that after all these years since his death, that if that was how his name was supposed to be said, EVERYONE would be saying that by now.
No one else does!
Even if that is the correct way. No one watching a Superman show would recognize it as being correct, and it was just irritating to the audience. We all would have preferred hearing it the more popular way, even if it was wrong.
Leave the revelations of correct pronunciations to news broadcasts, and documentary shows. Not some random show, that wasn't only about Al Capone, or the Untouchables.

I understand what you mean, but I am from Chicago and many people (Italians) would pronounce his name that way and it would make sense he would say his own name the right way.
Whatchoo Lookin' At??
okay.
the interesting thing, is that metropolis is supposed to be some made up city. often times in this show they made it look like it was Chicago. [how else could clark drive to his parents house?]
Many italians can't even say the name of their own country/motherland properly. it is not Itly!
