Just getting this back right away. The season's over, but our discussion isn't!

Here's a repost of those articles:

Here's a cool interview with Tim Kring

Part 1

Part 2

He talks about all kinds of stuff, ranging from the cancellation of "Crossing Jordan" all the way to illegal downloads of "Heroes" in Europe *cough*Thursty*cough* and the impact of that.

Enjoy.

With my first post in the new Heroes forum, I just want to say...

Hayden Panettiere... homina homina homina homina HOMINAH!

That is all. Now we can continue with the discussion.

Now you've ruined it!

Thurston McQ · by **Thurston McQ** on Tue May 29, 2007 12:59 pm

Hey, U.:

Remember way back in the late eighties when Hayden Panettiere had yet to be born and you were old enough to buy alcohol?

Man, those were the days!

:P

Actually, I wasn't old enough to buy alcohol until the mid-'90s. But don't let it get you down, Thursty. :P

:lol:

Hah!

I knew I'd get you to give up a rough idea of your age eventually!

Nyah!

You're still too old for me, Thursty. Alas, it would never work.

:P

The CBR Spring Annual #1... the last Q&A session with the writers until the second season premiere on September 24!

http://www.comicbookresources.com/news/ ... i?id=10692

So the official countdown is 3 months, 24 days.

There's a decent interview with Zach Quinto (Sylar) here:

http://spoilertv-heroes.blogspot.com/

It's an audio recording. You might have to scroll down a bit to find it, if you're not reading this today.

He talks about the finale, and how people are stupid (but he's nice about it). There's even a tidbit about the new Star Trek re-boot.

Fascinating.

Potential Trek 11 Spoiler

Zachary Quinto as Young Spock? I can definitely see it. But they'll have to CG his eyebrows out a bit unless Heroes is willing to do some eyebrow work where they've been shaved/plucked.

End Potential Trek 11 Spoiler

Ipsilon · by **Ipsilon** on Wed May 30, 2007 2:57 pm

Hmm, we might need a color scheme that's more conducive to hiding spoilers...

As I've mentioned in the past, NBC.com's boards have a [spoiler]tag[/spoiler] that does black text on a black background.

Sickness · by **Sickness** on Wed May 30, 2007 3:03 pm

I don't know about you but I have to concentrate seriously hard to read dark blue on black. It's less visible than black on black here.

Master Ulic · by **Master Ulic** on Thu May 31, 2007 2:16 pm

SPOILER (I guess)

Strangely enough, I can picture Sylar -- excuse me: Zachary -- as a young Spock, with the ears and eyebrows and all that, and I'm sure he can carry off his demeanor. But at the same time, because of Heroes, he'd make the creepiest Spock ever. lol I'd keep expecting him to slice someone's head open and eat their brains, and the term "mind-meld" would take on a whole new, incredibly ironic meaning. :lol:

END SPOILER

Thurston McQ · by **Thurston McQ** on Thu May 31, 2007 5:06 pm

How can any of you even allow yourselves to consider the possibility that anyone other than Josh Hartnett will play Spock?

I kid, of course.

Colin Hanks is obviously the man for the job.

Sickness · by **Sickness** on Thu May 31, 2007 5:23 pm

Feh! I'm mortified that any of you would consider anyone other than Jack Black for the role!

*SLAP*

Sickness · by **Sickness** on Thu May 31, 2007 8:52 pm

I'll gladly take the slap just to make sure it gets said.

Ipsilon · by **Ipsilon** on Thu May 31, 2007 8:58 pm

Yeah, yeah.

Which reminds me...

*goes to the sci-fi/fantasy board*

Thurston McQ · by **Thurston McQ** on Fri Jun 01, 2007 8:04 am

Those slaps hurt far less than forks.

Ipsilon · by **Ipsilon** on Fri Jun 01, 2007 8:07 am

Well, if someone would get our forks back...

Thurston McQ · by **Thurston McQ** on Fri Jun 01, 2007 8:16 am

Well, maybe someone needs to fork-get-about-it.

What? You don't like my sense of humor?

Quasar · by **Quasar** on Sun Jun 03, 2007 8:24 pm

Dania Ramirez (Callisto in X3) has joined the cast.

leatherman · by **leatherman** on Sun Jun 03, 2007 9:15 pm

I don't know that that is a good thing.

She was the less androgynous-looking chick out of the two Latina mutants that joined the Brotherhood, right?

Thurston McQ · by **Thurston McQ** on Mon Jun 04, 2007 4:22 pm

Yes. She's also one of the many, many actors in the movie prone to nodding the head whenever delivering dialog.

I *hate* headnod acting, and I hate directors who either refuse to curb it or are incapable of recognizing it.

Drew Barrymore is the worst of the headnod actors. Bitch can't deliver a line without nodding her head. I'd like to see her play a survivor of an automobile accident forced to wear a neck brace, just to see if she is capable of delivering lines without bobbing that massive, massive jaw of hers. My guess is that she'd shatter any neck brace they strapped to her within seconds of having it fastened.
