Usually i would agree, as Lost is my favorite tv show, but Lithgow's portrayal of the craziest serial killer ever was just phenomenal.
You think THATS stupid? Go take a look at the youtube comments for the Green Day Rock Band reveal. Its sad. Just sad.
This game looks fucking sweet and the movie will be too if handled correctly.
I would be completely satisfied if her powers were the kick-ass aiming and reaction time on display this episode. Useful, but not too farfetched (on a show about multiple universes).
This is what i got from the whole "door" thing:

As it stands, the only way to get to the other side, and back, is through a portal. such is the one we saw in the first season, and how olivia got thrown to the other side and back. however, they are dangerous, and temporary. usually only one person going through. lots of side effects afterwards, as we've seen.

what i think is different about what walter created is that it is a door, something stable. that you can use at will, with little to no possible side effects. this would come in handy when transferring universes a lot, or for transferring an army.


pretty much speculation, but it seems to be where they're heading.
Heres my take on the ships:

The visitors said they needed a resource. Yeah, the planet. I think they need to take over the planet and call it their home for whatever reason, like their planet being destroyed, or just being evil, etc. I think they are doing it secretly just to avoid resistance. If those flu vaccines turned everyone who took it into the mummies they found at the lab, think of how quickly and easily it would dispose of us.

Maybe.
I dunno....

Looks about the right height for the distance he probably was from them.
oh oh! i have an idea!

the rings allowed you to stay awake during the flash-forward.

bam! called it.
I thought this episode was riveting. Usually i don't care much for the "freak-of-the-week" episodes, but this one was different. the way they played the chase, that the kid was the one doing it, was amazing. after a few minutes of the episode, i thought it was the kid doing it. but then the writers were able to twist it so well to make it seem like the car salesmen were doing it. for example, the camera focusing on the guy as he kills the two in the convenience store, and then how scared the kid was. and then after all of that, this kid turns out to be one of the creepiest kids ever. no moral barriers whatsoever.

the pacing of the episode was intense, and it had me on the edge of my seat.

other things i noticed:

-A quote from walter: "I can't lose him again." Notice the dual-meaning? As soon as i heard it, i thought about how peter died before, and how this is alter-peter. but then i also realized everyone else on the show will think of how he ruined his career and ended up in an institution, thus losing peter. great writing.

-Im begininning to think either william bell is behind the attack of the alter-universe on the normal one, or trying to build an army to battle them. They played it very creepily and suggestive, but you never know...
exactly what i thought. boring as hell. skate is actually somewhat of a challenge to pull of realistic and sick tricks. this is same over-extreme tony hawk, but it almost seems like an on-rails skater.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What's the best gaming laptop for under 1,500 bucks? I had my eye on the P7805u (Gateway), but it seems Best Buy has run out for the time being. Also, as a secondary question, I like the specs on brands such as iBUYPOWER and CyberPower and the like, but are they reliable? I'm a little worried about buying labels that aren't huge like Dell, Gateway, etc. Thanks!"
