    You want to tell me what this is all about?

    As I walk through the valley of the shadow of Hogwarts
    I take a look at my life and realize there's not much left
    Cause I've been zappin' and castin so long that
    Even my ma'ma thinks that my mind is gone
    But I ain't never zapped a man that didn't deserve it
    Me, be treated like a geek, you know that's unheard of
    You better watch what you wavin, and what you castin
    Or you and your homies might be turned to chalk
    I really hate to trip, but I gotta loc'-
    As they grew I see myself in the magic smoke, fool
    I'm the kinda Z the little homies wanna be like
    Waving wands in the night
    Sayin spells in the street light

    Been spending most our lives living in the Wizard's Paradise
    Been spending most our lives living in the Wizard's Paradise
    Keep spending most our lives living in the Wizard's Paradise

    Hell, even if she wanted to and the HP people were up for it, it would probably actually make her look bad.

    I have to say it's just unnatural the way I react to the quick cut showing the Alan Scott Green Lantern ring in the Smallville trailer.

    I mean, I talk about this series as a steaming pile of crap, but they show me that ring for a half second and I am SO there....

    The final Potter film will be truer to the source material than the other films? Pfft. If there is ANY of the books that could use a little pruning, it's the final one. I mean, come on; it's two and a half hours of bitchy teens camping out in drizzly woods.

    Ok, I've never actually watched Smallville - SPACE (Canada's SyFy) shows repeats of the current episodes at 6am on Mondays (when I'm usually at the gym.)

    I've gotta ask - does that fellow (Oliver? from the sub-titles) actually OWN a shirt?

    Wow, I actually find those Fringe wallpapers fantastic-looking. Photoshopped to death, but not that horribly distracting. I especially like #5. Walter's drinking a slusho, lawlz. (And am I the only one who thinks that they're taking advantage of the pretty way the light bounces off Olivia, Pacey and Walter's eyes?)

    Tim Kring says we definitely won't be seeing Nathan again for the rest of season four

    Can someone please kill Heroes so we won't see any more after season 4?

    A Supernatural episode titled "My Bloody Valentine." I love that this show and the actors are willing to make fun of themselves.

    @EdificeComplex: I just love this show in general. So far the only thing I have whined about was what they did with the Trickster. I would have liked it better if he had really been Loki.

    @LittleDragon: The whole Loki thing didn't bother me too much. The way they dealt with who he actually was fits with the show's established mythology, I think. So far, IIRC, all the demi-god level characters have been from the Christian mythos. Although if they did open up the show to deities from other religious pantheons, it would allow for some great new story-lines. Potential Season 6???

    @EdificeComplex: I am for any thing that gets us a season 6. The five demi-gods that I can think of are the harvest scary crow, the winter time human eaters, the fan eater, and the trickster. Where do the other four fit into christian mythos? I am not arguing, I just don't know. Can't remember enough of my sunday school.

    Oh, you're right. Scratch what I said in my previous post then. It's been a while since I watched the previous seasons, and I tend to wipe anything with Paris Hilton from my memory. Time to break out the DVD sets again.

    @EdificeComplex: I thought was missing some connections. Semi-photographic memories come in handy when obsessing about a favorite tv show. I would have glazed the PH as well but there were some good Dean/Sam moments. Some may think its sacrilege, but I thought it was great when Gandhi attacks Sam.
