charloween1. In which the prince rescues the princesses, but finds his true love in a different form. Really. Why do the fairy tales have to be so straight all the time?
2. Dear Self: Writing a paper does not reading fic, unless your paper is about fic. Yours is about Help!. Help!, while fun, is not fic. Now then. Also: Help! has nothing to do with Heroes, Good Omens *or* Dead Poets Society, so it would be advantageous to STOP READING FIC and START WRITING THE PAPER. Love and kisses, Me. (ps: Yes, the “Intermission” sequence in Help! is sheer brilliance. No, you probably won’t be able to work it into your paper.)
2a. Memo to Self: Why, when picking your topics for these two papers, did you choose films with wacky names that are bothersome to type? Help! and If… are the punctuation twins, and If You Love This Planet and Not A Love Story are the unabridgable wordy names from hell. Way to go.
3. Anyone have any handy references about the figure of the clown in British drama? I’ve tried keyword searching at the school library and keep coming up blank. Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
4. Hey, a teaser before the previouslies. Haven’t seen that before!
Whoops, I missed how to spell Claire’s surname again - one ‘t’ or two?
Isaac is going to get Peter killed.
Ooooh, was that a look, Mr. Haitian.
HAHAHAHAHHAAHA Peter can heal. That gun doesn’t scare me. *cuddles laptop because I’m scared for Isaac* I mean, if there’s a gun involved, someone’s going to get hurt and I’m pretty sure it’s not the guy who can heal. But maybe not if he’s not expecting it, because he was thinking about Claire before he got impaled on that taxi. Gunshots to the head might not give him that chance he needs to load the healing file, or whatever it is he does.
[Awesome that The Black Donnelleys is going to be on right after Heroes... I like getting NBC!]
Heyheyhey. I hope Baby Matt can, like, shoot electricity from his fingers.
I love Sylar. “I’m not just saying that because you’re Indian”. *snerk*
HA! That’s how they got the DNA samples.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
philthe25th and I were talking about that this morning. And it’s awesome that Dane is on to Sylar. I also like how they’re filming this scene, with the fuzzy bits at the edges of the frame.
Love Hiro’s “... Pal” He’s got so much dignity.
That’s a HUGE frakking gun, Isaac.
HAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAA. Tough love, indeed. AND CLAUDE’S GOT ANOTHER STICK. There needs to be a special webisode of just the Claude and Peter training sessions. Like, an entire hour of Rocky-style montages of Claude yelling at Peter to manifest some kind of power and Peter half-trying to run away. Man, Peter is really some kind of masochist.
Oh, he’ll find Peter, Simone. Find Peter and shoot him in the head. Aiiie.
Gaming commission man had better not be foreshadowing killing Ando. I LIKE Ando. Damn you promo monkeys for making it so I can’t watch the episode because I’m looking at every twitch as a potentially fatal situation.
Poor, oblivious Mohinder. Sylar’s really creepy. This is awesome. *love* I also like how Mohinder isn’t being kept oblivious for much longer.
Ooop. Poor Claire. She’s having one hell of a week. Hey! Spilt milk!
The pigeons are his family. HRG transfigured them somehow.
HRG: Heh. Heh. I have tasers.
Claude: I am le tasered! *falls*
Peter: I refuse to be tasered, bitch! *telekinetic-s*
HRG: Buuuuh?
Haitian: I’m just here, with the goggles. Yeah. If I spoke (*chortle*) I’d sure say something.
AND THEN THEY FLY AWAY TO FREEDOM! Where they can live happily together, and Claude can hit Peter with sticks and Peter can “do something unexpected”.
Matt’s baby, that’s a superbaby. It grew fast. How long has it been since last episode?
Ooop. Peter just went evil.
I totally hope that Peter’s hiding in a corner, invisible. If Peter and Nathan don’t meet up by the end of this episode I’ll be sad. Peter really doesn’t have anywhere else to go now that Claude ran off.
Yay! Cartoon villains eliminated thanks to Hiro’s powers! Unexpected!
[And Claire’s in a Neutrogena ad. *boggles* Isn’t that, like, false advertising?]
Technically, it is a result of ...ooop! Claire got there first.
Ted and Matt, that’s a new one. I like Ted. “Ted! You’re radioactive by nature!” *dies* It’s neat, all these different definitions of heroes.
HRG... it’s no use trying to deny it anymore. This will never happen again? YA RITE.
Welp, there’s a corpse for us. Even more Zachary Quinto love. Actor pretending to be Sylar who’s pretending to be Zane, who doesn’t know about Sylar but then Sylar is having slight issues integrating this latest power... and it’s all there, and it’s all in a few seconds, and it’s all clear. Marry me, ZQ. Marry me.
Hiro: Ando, I wuv you too much to see you get hurt.
Ando: But... I bought all that stuff you said about being a hero!
Hiro: *stoic face*
HA! STAN LEE BUS DRIVER.
Hee! Unexpected. Matt goes dark side. Or, dark greyish side.
I really like evil!Peter. Ooop. Except when he hurts Isaac. This is why you don't piss off the emo ones, folks. All that mope can be transfigured to some pretty serious rage.
Huh. Unexpected! That’s one way to solve a love triangle. I guess that’s why they never bothered to develop Simone’s character. Kind of a cheap way out, but I can dig it.
... so I guess now we’re taking bets on the major character that dies in two weeks?
5. I guess it’s finally time to post this song: “Yeah Yeah Yeah Song”, by The Flaming Lips. It fits the moral ambiguity surrounding the choices these heroes have to make about their powers. What would you do?

Date: 2007-02-20 04:01 am (UTC)And yeah. Peter and Isaac were acting like total children. Idiots. Maybe this will make Peter remember he has a family that might be worried about him and go visit or something. Aiiiesh. Besides, it looks like Peter's got a better handle on his powers.
It is like shooting fish in a barrel, but it might also give everyone involved a reminder of the stakes they're fighting for. If New York explodes an entire city of Simones - all innocent bystanders - will be killed just as needlessly as she was.

Date: 2007-02-20 04:09 am (UTC)I mean seriously. It's like Reefer Madness but with powers, play with them and someone gets shot. *TSK* But yeah. This better be grow-up time for Peter and Issac, 'cause if it's not, I will be very displeased with the emokids.
This is so. And, that said, I'm glad that it IS small-scale first; people tend not to consider the fact that huge destruction is made up of individuals.
