Heroes Heroes Heroes

Well, after watching last night's Heroes, color me amazed. Who knew this X-men wannabe tv show could turn out to be so freaking good, and actually have acting and a plot and drama! I predict a whole bunch of Heroes-wannabe shows for next seasons, just like when Lost originally came out, and everyone came out with these high concept thrillers that just tanked and bombed. Anyone remember Invasion, The Nine, and some whose names escape me at the moment?

I think the Cheerleader is the bomb, or maybe it's because I first saw her as the Coach's daughter in Remember the Titans, or as the voice of the girly bug in A Bug's Life. Or maybe it's because right before Heroes premiered, I saw her in the direct to dvd sequel of Bring it on, Bring it on: All or Nothing.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Reading Week. It's scary, because there's only like 6 weeks of classes left. I found out my last exam, and it falls on my birthday. How exciting. So you guys can expect me to be back sometime around then.

p.s. Finally saw The Departed. Have to say that Marty totally deserved his Best Director and Best Picture wins. It's definetly stylistically different than the original Hong Kong drama, Infernal Affairs. Way more cursing and bloodyness though. I highly recommend it. The only major oscar movies I have yet to see is Little Miss Sunshine and Letters from Iwo Jima.
