Update 2007-10-02:
I just discovered that NBC has released, during all the Heroes series, graphic novels that “complete” the Heroes story. More details here.

Good stuff NBC!!!

WOW. I’m addicted. Another time.

On June 2007 my friend Nemo wrote a post about his new addiction, Heroes, a brand new american TV Serial:

Heroes is an American science fiction drama television series, created by Tim Kring, which premiered on NBC on September 25, 2006. The show tells the story of several people who “thought they were like everyone else… until they realized they have incredible abilities” such as telepathy, time travel, flight and spontaneous regeneration. These people soon realize they have a role in preventing a catastrophe and saving mankind. The series emulates the writing style of American comic books with short, multi-episode story arcs that build upon a larger, more encompassing arc. Kring said “we have talked about where the show goes up to five seasons.”

Hayden Panettiere - The Cheerleader to Save… to Save the World

I was curious, but at that time I found no time to download see the series. But, 2 weeks ago, I found a torrent with all the First Season.

Here is my progression (on all the 23 episodes):

• Sunday 23th of Septeber 2007: 5 episodes - Level of Addiction: High
• Wednesday 26th of September 2007: 1 episode - Level of Addiction: High
• Friday 28th of September 2007: 4 episodes - Level of Addiction: Very High
• Saturday 29th of September 2007 (yesterday): 13 (!!!) episodes - Level of Addiction: Headache

Now? Now I have ready in my external hard drive the first episode of the Second Season. But… I have also the first episode of House 4x and Grey’s Anatomy 4x.

Help me, pleeeeez!!!

P.S. Every episode is 45 min. long.
P.P.S. Hayden Panettiere, the Cheerleader is an Celestial Creature !
P.P.P.S. Thanks to Nemo, Alhandra, Serage and Luca, my pushers.

From Wikipedia:

Stephen John Fry (born 24 August 1957) is an English comedian, writer, actor, novelist, filmmaker and television personality. The former comedy collaborator of Hugh Laurie, he is also the host of the television panel game QI.

I like this man. I discovered him thanks to Laurie, and reading and watching him I discovered that he is great on his own.

Fry and his FryPhone (is not my idea: is him)

And now he has a blog. Just 2 post, but both interesting a sharper than you can expect from a “Theater/Letterature Man”. Particularly, I suggest the first one about SmartPhones, iPhone and (hypothetical) iPhone-Killers: Devices and Desires.

Best Wishes for Your new “experiment”, Mr. Fry.

P.S. If you want to understand how good is this man as actor, watch “A Bit of Fry and Laurie” (all the 4 seasons): I bought all the DVDs. As soon as I finish my third english-written book, Mortal Fear by Greg Iles, I’ll buy (or I’ll borrow from the Symbian Library) The Liar by Fry: then, I’ll “evaluate” him also as writer.

My friend Manu, after she has Simpsonized her boyfriend and her self, she wasted her time Simpsonizing Me!

Here is the result:

Yeah, I have the face of a Serial Killer, haven’t I? Or… just of a “pesc eh nicolò” (sorry, I can’t translate it)!

Saw 4 is on is way. And who LOVE this series knows that will be very very… very difficult to make something better than the previous movies. But this clip, with the autopsy of JigSaw, is just PERFECT!!!
Everything as usual: unexpected and bleeding.

Probably… a little bit of spoilering… or not? I think not! Take a look and let me know.

By the way, I putted it after “continue…” because the images very horrifying (I’d say “amazing”, but someone will think I’m a Serial Killer ).

Update 10th of Sep 2007: The name of the Restaurant is “Sig. Grilli - Ristorante Pizzeria” in 40 Goodge Street, London W1. I wrote a review about it in Italian

It was parked in Tottenham Court Road. We were just out of an Italian Restaurant (£25.00 each… for a beef steak and House’s Red Wine!!!)… when I saw it:

It’s beautiful, isn’t it? The mythic Volkswagen Type 2 (aka Transporter)!!!

Another one follow. Continue…

Tra le tante opportunità che offre la città di Londra, resto sempre più affascinata dalla cultura e dall’importanza che questo popolo riserva ai suoi “personaggi”, a coloro che legano il nome dell’Inghilterra alla propria fama, portandolo in tutto il mondo… uno di questi è William Shakespeare.

Ebbene sulle rive del Tamigi, nel Bankside, si trova il teatro aperto nel 1997, dedicato al lavoro del novellista, nel quale vengono rappresentate le sue opere da diverse compagnie! Ma per ulteriori informazioni vi consiglio di dare un’occhiata al sito ufficiale dello Shakespeare’s Globe, che di sicuro riconoscerete in questo filmato.

Immerso in un quartiere dall’aria profondamente elisabettiano, salta all’occhio per il suo colore bianco e per la sua forma circolare; la pavimentazione del cortile è molto particolare: su ogni mattonella c’è scritto il nome di un personaggio illustre, re, regina, scrittore o scrittrice che sia… ovviamente inglese!

All’interno non vi troverete delle comode poltrone ad attendervi ma panche di legno senza schienale, quindi il consiglio è acquistare dei cuscini prima di entrare, che ovviamente dovrete lasciare alla fine dello spettacolo!!!

L’atmosfera che si respira è particolare: ti senti sul serio proietatto nel passato!!! I marmi colorati, gli abiti degli attori, l’assenza di sipario e di microfoni (insomma della tecnologia), musicanti che suonano dal vivo con strumenti antichi, ti fanno sentire parte integrante dello spettacolo. Non esiste una platea, gli attori salgono e scendono dal palcoscenico, passando tra il pubblico. Non ci sono scenografie, arredi, solo gli attori e il loro inglese incomprensibile! Almeno per me!

Data l’altissima richiesta di partecipare a questi spettacoli, i biglietti vanno a ruba, ma per fortuna, anche se laterali, qualcuno ne era rimasto! Dopo una ricerca sullo spettacolo di cui avevamo acquistato i biglietti, “Love’s Labour’s Lost“, siamo riusciti a “percepire” anche qualche battuta…

A dimenticavo! Un ulteriore consiglio è coprirsi bene. il teatro è semi aperto, e se dovesse piovere, non preoccupatevi di portare un ombrello: non potrete aprirlo! Ma lo spettacolo va avanti!!!
