Reviews and Confessions

*Here there be spoilers*

Who Wants to be a Superhero-  It is two weeks in and I think this season is shaping up to be pretty good.  I think they had a better group of heroes last time though.  So Braid (truly anoying) and Mindset (not as smart as he says) are now eliminated.  Mr. Mitzvah and Ms. Limelight have been up to the pedastals twice and both characters need some major transformation to survive.  I will now break the characters down.

Ms. Limelight - She is just so perky and sweet that you want her to do well, but she will only make it a couple of more weeks at most. 

Mr. Mitzvah- Likely the mole, super stereotypical.  If not the mole, his days are numbered.

Parthenon- He is a fun character and I like him to go pretty far, but to reference another superhero: Flame on Johnny Storm. 

Hyperstrike- I agree, his costume sucks.  I see him in the final two.

Defuser- He is a leader on the team, but I question what his focus is.  Also a chance that he is the mole.

Basura-  she is hot, but I had to look up her name.  At this point she is just eye candy.

Hygena-  I see here as another leader on the team and possibly one that will win the competition.

WhipSnap- This is my favorite, and, pardon the pun, the dark horse (cause they get adapted to a dark horse comic) for winning the whole thing.  She really wants to be there and is really taking it seriously. 

 

Crank- does the is guy play any other characters?  The movie was fun and almost non-stop action.  There is a lot of disbelieve to suspend and it is not remotely for children.  Guys, you might not even want to watch this with the wife. 

 

 

 

 

 

Confession Time:

I like High School Musical

I have watched it a couple of times with my daughter and we just have a grand ole time.  I want to buy her the DVD.  The DVD has features such as dance lessons and studio time.  This movie is very charming and family friendly.  The chicks are hot, and I can say that because they were all over 18 when the movie was made.  The sequel comes out in two weeks on Disney channel and my daughter and I can't wait. I just hope that it has the same charm as the original and doesn't come off as contrived just to make a profit off of the firsts success.

TV Talk

Wow, summer is upon us.  That means time to catch up on stuff I DVR'd like House, Painkiller Jane,  Smallville, and the Tudors. 

To wrap up the tv season: Lost rocked, Heroes did too.  Supernatural started slow but knocked it out of the park.  Prison Break (huge in Korea now for some reason) was circling the shark tank on the motorcycle, but they have been doing that from the beginning.  Everything else that was good got cancelled.  Jericho was brought back thanks to some fan sending the studio nuts.  I hear they are trying this trick with Veronica Mars using Mars bars.

Summer seasons are now showing new programming. 

Here is what I will likely watch:

Last Comic Standing

Hell's Kitchen

Who Wants to Be a Superhero

Dr. Who

Drive (final two episodes)

I would watch 4400 but they need to have a marathon that I could see the entire 2nd and 3rd seasons in order to catch up.

I will also probably finish up The Prisoner Series that I have borrowed for quite too long.
