you'll regret that when it's expanded to Zombie Love

I did not see last week, so all I can wonder out loud is whether Sylar last week had a chance to touch Nathan, or are we supposed to believe that his power to mimic/shapeshift into someone he has touched can be applied retroactively to before he even had the power?

The Shield, overall, is not doo doo. Soap Operas generally are, and when shows such as Heroes descends to that level, it sucks. When there is a plot, with decent characterizations and cool drama (like in most of Shield) and cool super powered effects (like some of Heroes), then the show is good. When it goes

well, I'd considered this as an upgrade for my son, who has a GBA and loves his lego starwars, but since it's not transferable, fuck it. I'll save the $170 and find something else for him.

His line about being a historian struck me as similar to Tom Cruise lecturing on the merits or lack thereof of psychiatry, him "knowing" it better than anyone else in the room. bah.

There's an author, Hendee or somesuch with a half-vampire protagonist in fantasy. I read the first few and thought them ok, and I think they're up to book 6 or 7 or so. And there's lots of vampires in modern vs. medievil fantasy, the latter usually reserving for villians I suppose.

no sparcklely fingertips to indicate that he took it. When we first saw his new manifested power, it was implied to be involuntary through touch, ala his icemaking on the plane. Since then, though, he seems to have gained conscious control over it. Otherwise, he'd not be able to fly folks around as he's been shown to

Just wait til Peter touches Sylar, and then we'll see if he picks up all of Sylar's powers at once. That or he'll babysit the new carpet rodent and get kickstarted somehow.

I have a problem with Peter's last minute save, however, in that there is no way for him to know where Angela is, that's she's being hunted, for her to tell him to pick her up, and for them to get in and out like that. I don't give a shit that they landed in the statue. I thought the effect was interesting in that we

Hmm..don't remember Prince of Darkness. Was that one with Scott Bakula, or am I thinking Lord of Illusion by someone else? I think I'd put They Live in more a guilty pleasure category. I like it, but wouldn't call it a good movie, and I liked Vampire$, but the book was so monumentally better and deeper in the

but..Pitch Black was a pretty decent poor man's Aliens. The Riddick sequel not so much, but I enjoyed PB quite a bit, especially since I had zero expectations going into it those years ago.

Shadow of the Vampire, is the name, I think, with John Malckovich as the director,yes?

I like Kevin Smith, his movies, podcast and his meet and greet story telling, though I've only seen bits of "an evening with Kevin Smith". His story about doing a Prince documentary, only to see it go into Prince's vault was quite amusing. I've outgrown some of his early work, but so has he. He's still a bit of a

did he make Mallrats for universal, or did universal distribute his movie?

hell's angels exist, and if you're referring to "the" devil, that would be a fallen angel, as are all his little angel helpers, at least according to biblical mythology, or Constantine, or maybe the Prophecy series, or any other host of fictional heavenly mayhem stories.

except that Sylar kind of killed him I thought in the whole cat and mouse volume finale. He strung up Sylar for a minute until Sylar overpowered him and did the telekinetic neck snap.

ah, I was remembering the fear guy being alone, and just kind of figured that his dad was stronger or more practiced at it. So yeah, there were a lot more options than going quietly into that black van.

re: Parkman, I did think his ability to give an illusion of something was somewhat limited to one person, so convincing the whole room that is was empty might not work, but taking over one gunman to start shooting the others would have. Personally, I thought the whole episode, especially when Noah made his escape,

here's a thought..
Hey Pete, if you're planning on "taking the fight to them", how 'bout you actually fight instead of impotent gun pointing?

Moira Kelly's plot line was a total in episode reset button that was drama for drama's sake and pointless. Let us count the ways:
1. she is assigned to the secret assignment, but hasn't been briefed or doesn't actually believe in powers, even though this is authorized by the president? how or why would he authorize it
