<p>Really?&nbsp; That scene in Mulholland Drive was the creepiest?&nbsp; Does anyone remember when the guy describes his nightmare and that monster from that nightmare pops out and scares him to death?&nbsp; I will agree that the TCM scene is creepy but what about the end chase scene? Event Horizon still scares the sh*t me.&nbsp; Everything in that movie is just creepy and wrong.&nbsp; all of those others just mess w/me in the wrong way. &nbsp;</p>

TV REVIEW- HEROES: Dual (Article) - 12/18/2008 8:50:42 AM

<p>I've always found the season finale's to be quite disappointing my case when it comes to &quot;Heroes.&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp; Season 1's Kirby Plaza battle should've been bigger than what it all came down to.&nbsp; Season 2 petered out *no pun intended* obviously because of the writer's strike.&nbsp; But it wasn't any different here.&nbsp; Although it was nice to see the heroes not in one location like previous seasons fighting the final battle.&nbsp; </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>And yes Sanity Sylar still has a whole bunch of powers that he gained back in the first two seasons he hasn't used, I don't think it was shape shifting but more like creating the illusions around him.&nbsp; Does anyone else wonder if Ando will be able to keep his powers and Hiro will be the side kick?&nbsp; Since Arthur's dead there was no way to get his abilities back, and does Peter have his original powers back?&nbsp; So many plot threads that weren't taken care of, the writers better get back on track or else it's going to be cancelled by the end.</p> <p>Does anyone else find it funny that Heroes is the Star Trek dumping ground?&nbsp; First George Takei, next Nicholle Nichols, now Michael Dorn as the president?&nbsp; I wanna see Jonathan Frakes and Marina Sirtis next.&nbsp; Or logical choice, Brent Spiner he could fit in.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

5 Upcoming Comic Book Movies That Must Be Stopped (Article) - 12/7/2008 9:51:29 AM

<p>I agree w/most people that GL and Thor are the only worthy films worth making.&nbsp; Especially since Marvel is going ahead with the Avengers movie and the eventual if it ever seems to get off the ground Justice&nbsp;League movie.&nbsp; Everyone else I can take or leave. We don't need third string superheroes running around.&nbsp; And from here on in all Marvel characters need to be interconnected in the world that the studio is creating. We can't keep them separated no longer.</p>

TV REVIEW- HEROES: The Eclipse Part 1 (Article) - 11/27/2008 10:56:05 PM

<p>Everyone has to remember no show will ever be as good as the first season.&nbsp; Granted Lost finally got back to that point but it wasn't till the 2nd half of the 3rd season and when the writer's knew when they were going to end the show.</p> <p>Does anyone else find it kind of&nbsp; lame that the Haitian's brother name was Baron Samedi?&nbsp; Really a Bond villain as the name?</p> <p>I love that Peter finally pointed out that Nathan is nothing but a tool, which is 100% true.&nbsp; Season 1 he realized that he could be his own person but it took him right up until the end to get that.&nbsp; Season 2 he was just a drunkard, no real advancement there. And this season he's not quite sure about his father despite seeing Peter banged up and powerless after his encounter.&nbsp; Nathan is a tool and hopefully will eventually become his own person somewhere down the line.</p> <p>Seeing Peter w/o his powers has been a refresher course on why he's one of my favorite characters. He's been able to survive and think on his feet w/o them, and he still knows that he can change his destiny at anytime. Now don't get me wrong there have been times where he gets annoying about telling Claire to stay innocent because she will go to the dark side or whatever. Almost every scene they've been in it's the same conversation.</p> <p>I agree with the stunt casting with Seth Green and Breckin&nbsp;Meyer as the comic book owners but it doesn't mean I don't enjoy it.&nbsp; As long as they don't have powers i'll be fine.&nbsp; While no one cares for the 10 yr old Hiro I feel it's going to pay off because apparently Arthur feels he's more of a threat than what's lead to believe, why else would you do something like that? </p> <p>The show still has some work and not rely on what made the first season so great but new fresher ideas are on the way I can already feel a change of old coming back</p>

HEROES: Angels and Monsters (Article) - 10/15/2008 10:48:08 AM

The addition of some of the new characters has been mixed. We need more villains than just Sylar and Adam Munroe, even the X-Men had greater nemesis' than Magneto. The show is still young where it can switch it up and w/no danger of another shortened season they can fix it during the 2nd half of the season and return to what made it so great to begin with. Don't hop off the bandwagon, many people did this with Lost and now that has been better than ever. Robert Forster wasn't that great of a twist *well sort of given his current condition* it's been known for months that he was going to be Papa Petrelli. Who doesn't like the idea of two companies battling it out? The thought that some of the powers were genetically enhanced has taken some of the fun out of the show and I find it funny that once again Peter is the favored child since he was born w/powers as to Nathan who was given thru science experiments. I'm looking forward to Mohinder-Fly's final transformation and to see if he comes back to the light side or if it's too late. Two Big Questions... What was Kaito's Power? When is Richard Roundtree coming back? That was/is a loose thread that I never got..

Im still expecting this movie to bomb horribly since no one seems to know what's going on, the casting is all wrong and I feel the super hero genre' will have died down immensely by the time this comes out

Two Face Update for DARK KNIGHT (Article) - 3/26/2008 7:58:43 AM

not very much of a spoiler, but it is kind of nice to know that we will see Dent as full fleged Two Face. From the footage and talks from Wizard World Chicago it made it sound like we would only have a back shot of him and that was going to be the set up.

Julie Benz Toplines SAW V (Article) - 3/26/2008 7:54:55 AM

I have to agree with most people on here...it's nice to see Julie Benz getting more work. Also I feel that the franchise has run it's course unless they plan on making it two sets of trilogies, one being w/Jigsaw and the other with his new apprentice.

No More FANTASTIC FOUR?? (Article) - 3/26/2008 7:47:43 AM

Finally the studios are realizing that despite some minor success there is no necessary to rush and make another movie right away. Personally I think they shouldn't have rushed with FF2, that's what the real down fall was. That miscasting, lack of real story, and that stupid stupid Dodge commercial.

Kevin Conroy is the only Batman animated voice I know. Forget whoever did the voice on the recent "The Batman" he had no depth or juebos that Conroy did. Now..jeremy sisto did fine work with "New Frontier" but he came off sounding like Vin Diesel..in my opinion Is anyone else still waiting for the Knightsfall/Knightsend dvd? anyone anyone..if they broke it up into two dvd's I think it could work..hence why I think Superman vs. Doomsday kind of failed..not enough time to tell the whole story
