Woohoo first ones here!

Ok, this is my blog where I get to talk about the less high-minded stuff that interest me, this will include, Lindsay Lohan's snatch, comics, movies, Britney Spears' snatch, music, gigs, some TV stuff and most importantly Jessica Beal's arse.

For this first post I would like to talk about the awesomeness of 'Heroes' which is yet to reach the hallowed shores of the UK but can be found at Pirate Bay. Its brilliant, I really want to say its the best thing to happen to sci-fi tv since Buffy and I'm fairly confident of that. I am completely in love with most of the characters, Claire (the cheerleader) seems to treat every incident of her power with same kind of disdain that is normally reserved for someone who wears the same outfit as her, Hiro (the Jap) is just fucking amazing and acts like I would if I had superpowers - as if it was an issue of Spiderman, Nikki/Jessica (the pornstar) are wicked, Nikki is utterly bemused and Jessica is pure, ride-you-to-death sexy evilness, several of the other characters are yet to come into their own as yet but it does include the awesome Greg Grunberg (from Alias) as Matt which makes me very very happy. If you are completely unaware the show is a kind of X-Men type thing with a whole bunch of unconnected people who are discovering they have 'abilities', there's a shadowy government organisation, an unstoppable super-villain and a bomb in New York in the future. One of the best things about it is that unlike Lost it seems to have direction - I'm not sure where a second series is gonna come from but I'm looking forward to seeing them try - every scene establishes one of the disparate story threads or characters a little more and by the end of each episode you know justa leeeettle more about what's going on - I've watch 6 episodes and I'm still not sure what Nikki's 'power' actually is. I also love the way that the makers trust you to understand that you're not always going to know quite what's going on, or even where in the chronology it happens (there's a fair bit of fucking with timelines) and that you'll trust them to bring it all together in the end.

Oh and I have a massive man-crush on the impossibly beautiful, incredible voiced Mohinder Suresh played by Sendhil Ramamurthy.

Just another couple of things - check out these bands:
Gravenhurst
and
Frank Turner

I currently love these comics:
Desolation Jones
and
Bullet Points

And I am almost wetting myself at the prospect of seeing Hot Fuzz - read the Empire review

Peas out.
