I'd say the protagonist role is equally shared between and Claire, though they spend much of that time apart. The rest of the characters are 2d and predictable. Fat guy? Evil! British guy? Evil! Overexcited cop? Zombie food! ...etc. The real standout for me though was Angela, voiced by Laura Bailey, who also voiced Rayne from the BloodRayne series. $30 good? Psh, hell no. I'd say a rental at best.

If budget is a concern, they should return to the formula of S1, back when the show was character driven and not about all the fancy effects. Also, not having so many damn cast members would help. Considering he was standing close to Nathan after the Eclipse then he should be doing that already.
-
Any details on the Wal-Mart exlusive deal? What sort of comic book(s) they'll include, how the coin looks?
-
Major plothole. Yes he was in a coma for the last one, but what about the eclipse prior to that one? Apparently in the Heroes verse, eclipses happen once a year or so. Arthur is, what, in his late 40s? So he'd know it's a seasonal thing.
-
Elle had her powers from childhood, if what HRG said was true. Likely she was given them unnaturally, but even so, how and why would the Eclipse affect that?
-
Nightcrawler.
-
He forgot her the moment he saw Adam. No, really. It's sad that it's true.
-
If they can have girl/girl on the show, I demand equal opportunity. Which I doubt'll ever happen, given the loathsome House/Cuddy "kiss" that I've read about.
-
Um. Wow. I'm ashamed to be from Ohio with these people. Because he has a different skin tone that automatically means he hates white people? The fuck?! And he's a terrorist. Ugh... I'm glad I'm only now tuning in to the whole Presidential campaign stuff.

Original was better. But I could see this going on for a while. Too bad everyone in the cast is a 1,000 better than Jason O'Mara. He's just absolutely atrocious as Sam.
-
Yeah, he got the ability and now he's stuck in a coma. Personally I don't much care for the direction his character is taking this season. On some level I can understand what they were trying to do - in order to save the world he has to become a villain - but if anything that made him more of an idiot. Now he's slicing heads left and right like some addict on speed. If anything that just made him worse. I miss the Peter from S1 where he was trying to get out of Nathan's shadow, be more than just a nurse and save the world, etc. Why must Sylar be a Petrelli anyway? To me, that just seemed like the writers using a stock cliche to give his character an unnecessary "development". (Not to mention ruins all those Petlar fics I read ) The final scene in the car, with HRG, Claire and Sylar, almost made me intrigued by the potential for a Sylar-Claire match up. Also, what happened to his super hearing? While he was waiting by the car, and HRG was wanting vortex-guy to kill him, he seemed unable to hear them. Whereas we know from his Road Trip of Awesome with Mohinder, that's not the case. Papa Petrelli is a completely unnecessary addition to the cast. As is the sudden overpowering of Nightmare Man. Mohinder is dull already, but at least he shut Maya up. That's a plus.

From DVDTown.com, the 'official' cover art:
-
A video about it. I actually feel bad for him in watching this, how they hound him mercilessly. But I guess that's to be expected.
-
I actually like Parkman. I'd rather see more of him than cockroach!Mohinder. or Tracy/Nikki/Jessica which makes absolutely no fucking sense no matter how they'll try to explain it. The African man's "Should've gone with Sprint" was way too blatant of an ad, in my opinion. (Nikki holding a Sprint = far more subtle). So far I'm liking S3. I think they're overcompensating for S2's opening with so many people being able to predict the future in some way, to the point where Mama Petrelli's power is completely different. Her power in S2 was shown to be persuasion, indicated by her 'convincing' Nathan's wife to leave him. Emo!Claire I can tolerate; at least she's no longer dependant on some random cute guy in school and is actually trying to do something with her power. If ever I hear "I'm just a cheerleader" again, it'll be too soon. A nice touch I love is the return of S1's scoring.

Source: CinemaBlend: Personally I'm hoping for, at the very least, deleted scenes and perhaps a blooper reel. Though that last is more a pipe dream.

I'm sure someone will find this amusing: Through a glitch in our library's computer system, I now 'own' the two-disc edition of Batman and Robin. I still don't understand that myself. It was on hold from another library, I checked it out, but the computer never registered it. Still showed the item on hold. Even got a letter saying the hold had to be cancelled. So it never showed up in the check-out records. But I still have it. ... Yay me?
-
The above is the direct opposite of another report I read. Of course from CinemaBlend.com, which cites MTV.
-
Maybe so, but it has been in the top 5 (if not the top 3) since its release. Didn't beat Titanic as all the naysayers said (personally I hoped with all the talk of that, that the movie would) but still impressive.
-
Even if they are just rumors, a cast line-up of Depp, Bale, Hoffman, Freeman, Caine, and Oldman is fucking badass.
-
You also can't go wrong with Leslie Nielsen as president (unless its the fourth movie). "These men died for their country. Send money to their bitches and hos."
-
Ditto. I haven't been able to tolerate any of them since Scary Movie 1 & 3 way back when. (I was stupid enough to see II in theaters, lured in by Tim Curry. ...Oy, big mistake). Epic/Date/Disaster etc have all been pointless. Don't see how anyone can honestly watch them and find something humurous. I'd point out that it was already done, and called "Get smart"... but originality has never been the line of movie's oustanding attribute. "Jamie's got a gun...." In my opinion, the best sort of spoof film is one that has a strong enough story that it can stand on its own. NATM, in my opinion, is one. Possibly Scary Movie, from what I remember of it. Once you get past that, and the horrendous girl-on-grandma french kiss, its actually pretty good. Agreed. Length of a film doesn't matter. Red Eye is only 1:25 altogether and that one was pretty good (even if the end devolves into how many injuries can Cillian Murphy take). Which is a shame; 3 was quite well done (new creative team, new ideas, etc). The 4th goes a bit downhill with the Brokeback parody, but I do recommend the 3rd nonetheless. I think that was the one with Signs, Ring, and somewhere along the way a rap battle. Also its great just for the following conversation which, if I remember correctly, was improv.

Johnny Depp Talks Riddler Embed of interview provided:

I think it'll reach that before the school season officially kills it. Beaten by House Bunny though (at least this week)? ...Ouch.
-
And now for your cracktastic lulz. The Dark Knight "Fun Song". And no, I did not make this.
