    Heroes - Season Three

    If I recall my physics, if Daphne just approaches the speed of light (without exceeding it), according to special relativity, time will slow down for her relative to an outside observer. So 10 seconds to Daphne could equal 17 years if she travelled at 0.9999999999999998c.... ? Not 100% sure.

    As far as I recall, he had two guns: the revolver and his normal service weapon. He had the revolver holstered and used it to shoot the two goons.

    Bionic Woman season 1 thread

    When they show Bionic Woman in Europe the PAL conversion will probably make her sound even sexier. The show has potential but its being held back by the overall tone. It's very dreary at times with a lot of brooding. The last episode worked for me because it broke from that pattern with...

    Bionic Woman season 1 thread

    Her thick cockney accent in Eastenders is definitely not her natural accent, which goes to show that Michelle has the chops to perform regardless of what accent she uses. If anyone is interested in what she really sounds like, they need but check the scifi online interview...

    Life season 1 thread

    I'm loving the show. The balance between solving the main crime and the crime-of-the-week is just right. I wouldn't mind if they stretched it over a couple of seasons, but my main fear is that once it's solved it'll be all downhill from there, a la Veronica Mars. I also wouldn't mind if a couple...

    I took it to mean that he's been pulling her husband over for innocuous traffic violations, only this time the ex-wife was also in the car.

    Smallville - Season 7 thread

    I was going to post the exact same thing. Her massive cheekbones give her a strange, caricature-like appearance from the front, and her overbite/underbite make her look more of a yokel than a supergirl. I also don't like her.

    Life season 1 thread

    Great episode that nicely sets up the premise and characters. I love that the main character, Charlie, is out of touch with modern day advances, such as the camera cell phone and the internet ('what's IM?'). It's also nice to see Sarah Shahi again after missing her in last season's the L word...

    Bionic Woman season 1 thread

    Apparently... The deaf sister is out and replaced by a younger-looking sister without the hearing problems. There's meant to be some sexual tension between the two bionic womans on the show. The show looks interesting but apart from Michelle Ryan and Miguel Ferrer as boss, the casting...

    Smallville season 6

    Awful episode - poor concept, poorly executed. Oh, and it's funny how Lana's gunshot wound jumped from her left side, to her right, then back to her left.

    Veronica Mars Season 3

    Sub-par episode but still entertaining. Max (to Mac): okay, seriously...did my friends hire you? :laugh:

    When I watch movies like Spider-Man and Superman, I get the feeling that Avatar is being made ten years too soon. There's something very wrong in the way these virtual stunt doubles move and look.

    House, M.D. Season 3 Ongoing Thread

    :D I think Chase misdiagnosed a patient last season which led to her eventual death - and even had to appear in front of the hospital board for a disciplinary hearing.

    House, M.D. Season 3 Ongoing Thread

    Another meh episode wrt the case. I missed why she didn't have a fever if she had a staph infection. The Foreman story seems rehashed and Cameron and Chase had nothing to do (and I wish Chase (or the writers) would just drop his infatuation with Cameron.) As always, the interplay between...

    Superman Returns Sequel discussion thread

    The problem with casting for Superman is that the actor needs to fit three roles, the normal Clark, the nerdy Clark and Superman. I can't see Welling as bumbling, nerdy, bespectacled Clark Kent, the reporter. He's way too beefcake, his face too full and his appearance too youthful. Nick from...

    Smallville season 6

    How did Moira know that Lex had a file on her on his flash? Also, I can understand she's desperate, but why 'persuade' Chloe to do something so dangerous as to fetch the flash drive from Lex? That didn't sit well with me, especially considering how she got herself institutionalized to prevent...

    Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007)

    The giant Galactus is iconic and I would rather they had tried and failed rather than cop out like they've done. However, it could still work if they made Galactus appear ethereal like Zeus in the animated series, Ulysses 31... (link to zeus at 1:11 min mark)

    I predict that Transformers will have a huge opening and then see a steep drop, following a similar curve to the first X-Men. It'll probably end near to the $200 mill mark.

    House, M.D. Season 3 Ongoing Thread

    Apart from the ass grab it was a pretty run-of-the-mill episode. I'm finding the whole Cameron/Chase storyline uninteresting and redundant. One of the highlights of the episode (and indeed the whole show) is the interaction/banter between House and Wilson.

    CSI: Miami because I can't stand the Horatio character. He takes all his cases personally, he talks with long pauses and always faces away from the person he's talking to, he removes his sunglasses in every other scene (drinking game fodder), and he's an annoying leprechaun. Once and Again...
