I wanted to write a review about Heroes Volume Three on my own blog. But after watching the season three I was so disappointed I was looking around for other peoples comments about the season three. I actually found two quotes that really summarizes my point of view! With the publication of these quotes on my blog I also want to thank the writers of these quotes for their mind-blowing way of expresing their opinions

The season has major suckage…but the writers are best with surprises and ironies.

FAST FORWARDS
I’m tired of premonition images (and, oh, super lame nondescript paintings) that tell me what “could” or “will” happen. And I’m tired of timelines and fixes to them. And after New York was saved at the end of Season 1, we still have Nathan on track to the presidency, which fulfills the initial vision of the future, which was supposedly mended.

So things are inevitable, images are re-interpetable, and the past/present/future can be tinkered with. THEN WHY BOTHER with the timescapes? If the story’s supposed to be in four dimensions, fine–I love a good mind*#$@ once in a while. Just don’t use it as the principle plot device.

IT’S THE PEOPLE, STUPID!
The series painstakingly introduced us to PEOPLE but it’s uprooted the characters and immersed them in a boring solution of All Powers All The Time. Peter was a compassionate home health care worker. Tom was a cop trying to hold his marriage together. Suresh was a son trying to either walk in the legacy of his father or solve the mystery his father had hidden. See all the relationships? There are none–not even between the main characters (well, Ando & Hiro). You even have Mrs. Petrelli proclaiming her family ties to Sylar, and is there any warmth to it? The air got chillier at that moment than when Nikki-TRiplet freeze-dried a rose in her hands. Does anyone agree with me, the triplet story is lame and so is keeping this mouth-breathing actress on board?

THINGS I DON’T HATE
I’m not too keen on all our heroes becoming bad guys, and vise versa. There may be a balance in the universe–some say yin/yang. But yin should always be yin and don’t you dare mess with my yang.

Oddly enough, the character signal we got from Tom forcing the Company members identities from Mrs. Petrelli–and she actually said it to him, was that if he did this, he would become what he hated (his father). This should have been the first hero to “go dark” but no, he’s off in Africa talking to turtles.

I insist that my interpretation of Tom’s wilderness scenario is better than what the writers have done. My take was that Tom had been thrown into a dreamscape prison like his father, or he, or Peter could create.

I like that Peter has become Sylar, and I like how it happened (Hey Vic, he wanted Sylar’s innate power ‘to understand how things work,’ so that he could “un-unravel” the timeline.)

I saw Peter going dark back when he confronted Sylar, in the episode where Sylar pinned him and said “This is the part when most people scream.” Once Peter got his game on, his face became ruthless and you could see he was manifesting Sylar’s lust for power….I thought for sure Peter was going to “become” Sylar and would himself fulfill the scene where Hiro saw someone kill Isaac. Another case where MY story was better than the real one.

HOW THE FUTURE IS FIXED
Peter somehow acquires the powers of the Haitan. He also acquires the powers of Daphne. He has Hiro’s powers already. Now he combines these and runs all over the planet and all over time making all the NBC viewers *forget* what they’ve seen of Season 3. See? No muss, no fuss, no can-opener craniums.

Well, you know…

I’ve officially given up on this show… it’s drowning and I don’t like to see good people get dragged through hell and drown…

This show is an example to everyone just how horrible it can become.

Heroes is suffering from the dumbest writers in the history of writers…

They’ve dealt with story lines in the most amateuristic ways, trying to fool the viewers into forgetting all the past errors, by simply not mentioning them.
Like copy cat girl… The grandmother Uhura, how Parkmans dad ever got out of that mind trap he put him there… so many things have become so stupid, bordering idiotic, that I am just waiting to see the headline “HEROES CANCELLED”.

This whole new idea of “genetically enhanced humans” just makes me sick to my stomach… it’s become more 4400 than Heroes… suddenly it’s just lost its own identity…

It went from amazing to ridicules to appalling…

This show is hurting the actors… Sylar is a joke, Hiro is a pain in the neck… you’d think he’d mature… and what the hell was that killing Ando scene for?

New characters coming in and old ones being forgotten… such bad writing..

So, we’re not talking about genetically enhanced humans with supernatural powers (X-Men and 4400 comes to mind, been there done that)

In so many ways the show is trying to wipe out the existence of it’s first season.

Dr. Suresh was the voice the morality the philosophy in the show in it’s first season…

The entire idea of EVOLUTION (Season 1) was what made it special… it was unique… now… it’s a discounted version of an idea that died a horrible death…

Heroes has become the perfect example to use in lectures and seminars on WHAT NEVER TO DO in this business.

This show is dead to me…

Hier ein paar interessante Szenen die aus dem Film geschnitten wurden:

Ich kann euch nur wärmstens diesen Film ans Herz legen. Sehr gut recherchiert. Wirft einige Fragen auf…

Bigger Stronger Faster: The side effects of being american

http://www.biggerstrongerfastermovie.com/

Zitat

In America, we define ourselves in the superlative: we are the biggest, strongest, fastest country in the world. Is it any wonder that so many of our heroes are on performance enhancing drugs? Director Christopher Bell explores America’s win-at-all-cost culture by examining how his two brothers became members of the steroid-subculture in an effort to realize their American dream.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1151309

Zitat

[...]
This film takes an honest view at steroids, and more importantly at the attitudes that push people towards altering "what god gave them". If anything it should make people realize the problem isn’t a single class of drugs that has been sensationalized, but a growing problem of body dimorphism. It is self worth, and self-esteem in a bottle. And there is nothing "biased towards steroids" about that message. If anything it is simply one of several performance enhancement methods he demonstrates.
I know to many the movie seems biased. But to anyone who has done the research, it isn’t so much this movie is biased as the media depiction of these drugs is as ridiculous as the media’s depiction of marijuana in "Reefer Madness". People are so bombarded with misinformation about drugs in general in America, that when they are shown something honest, it rocks their point of reference and they feel it is biased.
What this documentary is, is eye opening, honest, and very complete in it’s presentation. More so then any other documentary I’ve seen on the topic.

Es ist wieder einmal Zeit für richtig geile Action in den Kinos. Kombiniert man Crank, Matrix und den Mörenfressenden Actionheld aus Shoot ‘Em Up zusammen mit oberstylischer Musik und coolen Filmschauplätzen so erhält man die neueste Kreation “Wanted” von Mark Millar. Ein “must see” für alle Action Fans!

Immer wieder gibt es ein paar Filme die wirklich sehenswert zu sein scheinen. Einer dieser Filme, der nächstens in den Kinos erscheinen sollte, ist Hellboy II The Golden Army. Ich fand den ersten Teil von Hellboy echt witzig und cool umgesetzt. Der zweite Teil sieht mindestens im Trailer ziemlich ordentlich aus. Aber entscheidet selbst…

Ich habe heute den Film Cashback gesehen und war begeistert von den Kameraeinstellungen, den Schnitten und Übergängen im Film. Fast umgehauen hat mich aber das untenstehende Mantra der Liebe am Ende des Filmes:

”Once upon a time, I wanted to know what love was. Love is there if you want it to be. You just have to see that it’s wrapped in beauty and hidden away in between the seconds of your life. If you don’t stop for a minute, you might miss it.”

Sinngemässe Übersetzung:

"Früher wollte ich wissen was die Liebe ist. Die Liebe ist da, wenn du es willst. Du musst nur erkennen, dass Sie sich in der Schönheit und zwischen den Sekunden deines Lebens versteckt. Wenn du nicht für eine Minute anhaltest, wirst du sie vielleicht verpassen."

Unglaublich wie diese wenigen Sätze einfach alles auf den Punkt bringen! Ich denke, wenn wir das uns alle zu Herzen nehmen, wird die Welt ein viel schönerer Ort…

Wieder einmal ein cooler Jason Statham Film!

Der in der Schweiz legale Downloadservice serienjunkies.dl.am ist nicht mehr unter serienjunkies.dl.am erreichbar sondern unter serienjunkies.org! Hier die offizielle Begründung

Guten Tag

Da du dir jetzt sicherlich die Frage stellst: Warum ändern die jetzt plötzlich die Domainendung auf serienjunkies.org, wo ich mir doch gerade die Endung .dl.am eingeprägt habe?

Naja, das ganze hat auf jeden Fall einen trifftigen Grund, denn ie komplette .dl.am Domainendung wurde für eine Unsumme von Geld an die Firma Usenext verkauft, welche nur darauf aus ist möglichst viel Geld mit dem Kauf zu verdienen.

So wird nicht mehr die eigentliche Seite dargestellt, sondern ein Bild der eigentlichen Page mit dem Hinweis, dass die Page vorrübergehend nicht erreichbar sei. Natürlich ist das Ganze dann noch mit viel Werbung verschönert, damit man sich bei ihrem Dienst im Usenet anmeldet. Die Aussage das die Page offline sei entspricht natürlich nicht der Wahrheit, denn die Page läuft noch einwandfrei, jetzt allerdings unter der Domain: http://serienjunkies.org

Bei der Gelegenheit wurden folgende Domains gleich mitbestellt:

http://serienjunkies.eu

http://serienjunkies.biz

http://serienjunkies.info

http://serienjunkies.us

Prägt euch also die neuen Domain gut ein, denn unter .dl.am werden wir wohl nie wieder erreichbar sein, so wie es aussieht.

Die neue Domain lautet: serienjunkies.org.

Da du einer derjenigen bist, der auf welchem Wege auch immer, trotz der Domainprobleme den Weg hierher gefunden hast, sei doch bitte so nett und teile deinen Freunden / Verwandten / Bekannten mit, dass die Page nicht offline ist, sondern weiterhin erreichbar ist, nur halt unter der Domain http://serienjunkies.org.

Es wäre nett, wenn ihr dieser Bitte nachgeht, denn viele Besucher warten jetzt sicherlich gespannt wann die Page endlich wieder online geht, was jedoch längst der Fall ist, sie allerdings auf der falschen Seite sind (.dl.am) auf der angezeigt wird, dass die Page temporär nicht verfügbar ist. In diesem Sinne “spread the message ” …

Mit freundlichen Grüßen, das Team von serienjunkies.org ;P

Ich fand im Netz eine unglaublich coole Interpretation des Koffermysteriums von Pulp Fiction! Seht selbst

If you all are anything like me then you had no idea what was in the briefcase in Pulp Fiction. So, through a friend of a friend of a friend who had a two hour conversation with Quentin Tarantino himself, I now know, and I thought I would pass along the information because it makes the movie even 100 times better than it already is.
Remember the first time you were introduce to Marsellis Wallace. The first shot of him was of the back of his head, complete with band-aid. Then, remember the combination of the lock on the briefcase was 666. Then, remember that whenever anyone opened the briefcase, it glowed, and they were in amazement at how beautiful it was; they were speechless. Now, bring in some Bible knowledge, and remember that when the devil takes your soul, he takes it from the back of your head. Yep, you guessed it. And what is the most beautiful thing about a person: his soul. Marsellis Wallace had sold his soul to the devil, and was trying to buy it back. The three kids in the beginning of the movie were the devil’s helpers. And remember that when the kid at the end came out of the bathroom with a “hand cannon,” Jules and Vincent were not harmed by the bullets. “God came down and stopped the bullets,” because they were saving a soul. It was divine intervention.

Ok ich gebe es zu: Prison Break ist der Hammer! Neben 24 und Dr. House eine meiner Lieblingsserien. Heute ging ich der Frage nach ob es eine Season Drei geben wird. Seht selbst:

WARNING – THE FOLLOWING TEXT CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR SEASON 3. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK

SEASON 3

– > The answer to the question that has been on every prison break fan’s lips is right here. Yes there will be a season 3. Season 3 of Prison Break (which may have a different name announced soon) will be premiered on 17th September 2007, 5 months after the season 2 finale. Most of the conspiracy storyline (about 90%) will be wrapped up by the end of season 2, and the third season will have a completely new plot. Scheuring quotes “The audience will definitely get closure. It’ll feel like this is the endgame of the story, and yet there will be a few unanswered questions.”

The third season will have eight major roles, including new additions to the cast. Most of the surviving crew will be brought together somehow, and there will be one or two new faces. When asked about the fate of Mahone played by William Fichtner, fans were told that Scheuring was very happy with William, hinting that Mahone will make a comeback in season 3.

One of the new additions is a female character who is Michael’s equivalent in intelligence, and she will act as a love interest for one of the guys. Who will it be? Your guess is as good as mine. Scheuring also let slip “And she would seem to be coming down on the side of good initially, but there will be questions [about] whether that’s a facade.”

Ausiello quotes: “Paul Scheuring also teased that Season 3 would feature “a different storytelling process” that will begin to “play out in the last couple episodes of Season 2″ and “leave some cliff-hangers, including one with Sara.”

Sara Tancredi fans may have been worried that she may be killed off because the actress playing her, Sarah Wayne Callies, is pregnant, but Ausiello assures us that she’s safe. He says that Paul Scheuring won’t kill her off because he believes that Sara Tancredi is a strong component in the show. Sarah is due in the late summer, which coincides with the premiere of season 3, and she will be gone for a while, but will be back soon after the birth of her child. Scheuring says that her disappearance will fit into the plot, but refuses to confirm rumours of Sara Tancredi being kidnapped.

Season three will provide some of our favourite characters with redeeming moments. Michael Scofield’s tattoo still has one more important role to play before the second season ends. Not everyone at the Paley Festival Event will survive to see season three. The show will continue to shoot in Dallas for season three, with secondary units covering Florida and Lousiana. The cast present at the Paley Festival were Dominic Purcell (Lincoln Burrows), Sarah Wayne Callies (Sara Tancredi), Robert Knepper (T-Bag), Wade Williams (Captain Brad Bellick), Rockmond Dunbar (C-Note) and Amaury Nolasco (Sucre).
