Is she retarded? Its an invasion, stupid!

What is the supposed mixed messaging? What confrontation?

Its an invasion, your hero has started a war, Bob.

"Every Hero... Has a Genesis"
really? gotta reference the console that Sonic came out on?

Jim Carrey must be doing a cash grab for this one.
I don't see how it could be worse than Super Mario Brothers, at least.

I would love to see that. I think most writers/directors had no clue what the philosophical/ethical questions are that a character with the power of superman has to confront. It's basically not the bad guy/ Kryptonite / magic which could destroy superman, that makes superman interesting. What the hell, NO superhero movie should be interesting because of the part where the hero could get hurt. In the end there is one thing we all know when we go to a superhero movie, the hero survives in the end, maybe we're cheering for the bad guy or hope the world will get what it deserves but deep down we know that the hero will find a way to stop the crisis. It's just the way these movies work. On the other hand what I find interesting, is to see what the hero has to sacrifice in order to save the world. Sure Superman will still be super tomorrow, but what about the rest of the world?

Did you see Watchmen? Great movie (ok against what i said earlier, in the end one of the heroes dies) but besides that, it shows brilliantly how to work with a unstoppable superhuman being and how to create a crisis that doesn't need something like Kryptonite/Magic to work as a movie. You don't even know/see the bad guy until the last quarter of the movie. And one of the Heroes (Dr. Manhatten) is literally unstoppable, I mean he can change reality with his will as far as I know. But even he is of no help at all in the given circumstances. You can say the biggest enemy of Dr. Manhatten is himself, I would also say this applies to superman. And I think that is what makes it great.

On the other side you can make a movie like "The Avengers" which is great as a action movie but I don't think it's a good superhero movie. I mean when i watched this movie, all i did was waiting for the grand finale. The final super fight where the avengers fight together. And what was it? Just a group of super dudes/dudesses killing one exchangeable alien thingy after another... wow great tension you achieved there... I mean in the end what is the great crisis they fight? That their own Bosses try to nuke them, because everything else was under control at that moment.

It does make great action material, but what I want to see (and sadly that doesn't seem what "the people" want to see) is a superhero movie (especially speaking of superman) where the hero has to fight more than just interchangeable aliens in a big CGI fuckfest.

Now that Heroes has been officially and mercifully cancelled, can we please never see this horrible actress ever again? Thanks.


She was great in Malcolm in the middle, I think they WANTED them to act like that...pretty much all the characters besides hero were pretty emo.

Now that Heroes has been officially and mercifully cancelled, can we please never see this horrible actress ever again? Thanks.

Plea bargain for 20 years when you know you haven't committed a crime? Forget it.

right, because you woulda been the real stoic "hero" and taken the full 25 to life outta principle?


Being a hero has nothing to do with it. 20 years is a long time for not having done anything wrong, so I'd take my chances. On the other hand, it seems like so many stupid fucking idiots don't seem to understand the concept of reasonable doubt.

Pills are overrated, I've had a lot more fun without them. Running naked through the mall just feels liberating now.

every super hero has their weakness, AnimalsForCrackers...
here... I brought you something ( opens curtain to reveal giant bag filled with hornets and kitties) POW!

Sorry, the YouTube page is in broken English. I think his name is "Hero Ha." Does that sound right?

Wow - I guess when you're really young you can overlook the fact that your hero has a green mullet and the cast does really bad voice acting.
I still loved this show though.

And was that Whoopi Goldberg at the end?

Well the difference there of course is that guitar hero has a prescribed pattern - there's a logic to his composition here, but it's also very free in that the percussion is all micro-edited - I'd be surprised if the fills and pattern variations weren't spontaneous inventions.

I think percussion is the most apt analogy in comparing this to other music - regular players on the drum kit aren't just glorified dance-dance revolutionaries, are they?

So when exactly is Bioshock coming out? I'm looking forward to it.

This game reminds me of one of those movies where the hero has to do something really simple but before he can do that he has to do something else, and before he can do that, he has to... I mean, your original goal is to get on a freaking elevator. 30 hours of game play later, you're still not there.
