This is the new G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra TV spot that aired last night during Super Bowl 43. I don’t know much about G.I. Joe. I was more into Batman and Spider-Man when I was a kid. Not knowing much about the movie, franchise, or story, I think this trailer looks pretty kick ass.

Yeah, I watched the Superbowl last night. It was boring as hell until the final minutes, so, pretty much like 90% of NFL games. This had to be my favorite commercial during the big game. There were a few other good ones, including the preview for the new Heroes episodes, and one with Sylar, Hiro, and others from the show singing, but this one was the best. I know, I know; I’m addicted to Heroes. What can I say? It’s a great show. The new episodes start back up tonight.

This is beyond epic. So this dude took his laptop, and decided to laser-etch it with every level from the Game Boy game,  Super Mario Land. Needless to say, it was worth the time, effort, and money. Check out Flickr user revolvingdork, to see more from this photo set.

This episode aired on Monday, November 24th, 2008. If you haven’t seen this episode yet, or if you’re not this far into the series, I suggest you do not read the rest of this post, as it may contain spoilers.

So the eclipse came, and I want it to get the hell out! In season 1, when the eclipse occurred, our heroes and villains discovered their powers for the first time. When the eclipse came on Monday, in season 3, everybody’s powers went away. Suresh is no longer a mutant freak, Elle can longer shoot electricity, Claire can no longer heal, Hiro can no longer control the time-space continuum, Matt can no longer read thoughts and control minds, Daphne is no longer a speedster, she is crippled, Nathan fell out of the sky, and Sylar and Arthur are no longer godly. There is no change for Peter, as his father, Arthur, had already taken his powers, and Hiro still has memory loss, and believes he is 10 years old.

Since this is a two part episode, I’m hoping this Monday, the eclipse will pass, and the powers will return. Hopefully Peter will get his power back as well. The preview for the next episode shows Claire on the verge of death after a bullet wound, and it also shows Noah Bennet looking at Sylar and Elle kissing through a sniper rifle. Since Sylar has no powers, including his healing power he took from Claire, if he is shot, it’s over, he’s dead, same for Elle. Please, please don’t kill Sylar or Elle, they are falling in love, and a great duo.

Heroes airs at 9PM EST, Monday nights, on NBC.

This is the episode that aired last night, and is the 9th episode of the 3rd season. If you haven’t watched it yet, watch it before reading the rest of this post.

There is a lot of talk about Heroes losing it’s ratings, and having a bad story going on right now. I have to say I agree for the most part. Peter has lost his powers, Hiro has lost his memories, and Sylar and Elle are still hanging out with the villains.

I think Sylar and Elle will eventually join the Heroes, as Sylar pretty much already has, and they’ll fall in love, which looks like has already started during this episode. I think we need some new, more dangerous villains. I don’t care much about Arthur Petrelli, and the guy who shoots fire, and the guy who can punch holes through people are all pretty much insects compared to the godly powers of Sylar and Peter. If there isn’t a new super villain soon besides Arthur Petrelli, the Heroes won’t have anybody to have an epic battle against in the future.

Then, the preview for the next episode, with everybody losing their powers. If nobody has powers, the show is over, nobody wants to see a bunch of normal people with issues, we want to see super powers. I have a feeling everybody will get their powers back with the formula Suresh is making, but it won’t be the power they had before, it’ll be something different.

Heroes comes on Mondays, at 9PM EST, on NBC.

I’m not really sure why Bill O’Reilly has a problem with this ad. I can’t believe we’re seeing a presumed heterosexual male, not wanting to see Heidi Klum jump around in lingerie playing Guitar Hero. Plus, this ad is much less inapropriate than some sex scenes and violence on broadcast TV. I wish people, mainly in the US, would stop being such prudes…sex is not evil.

Here we see Liu Kang’s fatality, Baraka’s fatality, and Batman’s “Heroic Brutality”. I think they all suck. I’ve yet to see a fatality or brutality that is better than The Joker’s.
