Sylar = Spock
Categories : Movies, Television |
I’ve never been much of a trekkie – missed the last few movies and never watched any of the TV series after the one with Pickard. But the upcoming movie produced by J J Abrams does sound like it might be worth watching. And a particularly interesting thing about this movie is that they have the actor who plays Heroes’ Sylar (the coolest, and scariest, TV villain in years) to play a young Spock. Judging from these grainy pictures he’s a pretty good choice for the role.
Speaking of Heroes, Jen and I have finished re-watching season 1 on HDDVD and are now working our way through season 2. It took a little while to get into it while they were introducing all these new characters but eight episodes in and it’s looking as good as ever. I especially enjoyed the ‘Hiro in Japan’ storyline. My big frustration now is that we only have one episode left to watch and we will be up to date! After a few weeks of watching Heroes several nights a week, having to endure the pain of waiting for one episode every week will be agony, especially if the screenwriter’s strike results in a big mid-season gap.
