I saw HEROES is back for its 4th season.

I kinda liked it. Alpha... err, I mean Sylar emerging again as a person was a mite predictable. And I didn't get all this (undue) focus on Claire; although I liked her fisty, sexy, 'Guitar Hero' roomie Annie and her trajectory (and then they killed her off, and her puppy). I'm not sure where they're going with it, but I'll keep watching.

Any other first impressions?

One of the things that irks me about Heroes is that everyone has powers and normal people are red shirts. I bet Madeline Zime turns out to have some kind of power that she may doesn't know it yet. Also, ever since last season I have been getting the idea that Ali Larter's character may be multi-personality schizophrenic. She doesn't ever go away. Maybe they should just kill off Hayden to regain their ratings. I don't understand her [big] role in this 'save the cheerleader' thing which the writers apparently forgot to continue.

I gave up halfway through last season. Nothing I've heard about the new one makes me question that choice.

"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him."

I, too, have now given up on Heroes. Monday night was too busy in terms of viewing as it was, no I've decided not to watch it any more.

If I'm missing anything great, let me know and I'll get it on DVD. I don't think that will happen, though.

Read or see The Watchmen, and tell me Kring didn't rip it off like a week-old scab.

Ok, now I want to see it, just so I can know what you're talking about.

I love the Watchmen, and now you have me intrigued.

Get the extended Director's Cut, the theatrical leaves out much crucial info.

I saw it in theaters, and yeah it left a lot out. In November they are releasing a cut that has the Black Freighter cartoon spliced into the movie.

What I was saying was that now I kind of want to watch the season premier of Heroes just to see what you were talking about.

And yes, they are gonna get me with the double dip, given a good review. I like the Director's Cut just fine, and wonder if the Freighter addition would help or hurt it, cinematically speaking.

In many ways. At a minimum, the big villainous plot from season 1 was straight outta the Veidt playbook.

"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him."
