While We Wait for 1.22.06

Heroes withdrawal starts now. "Are you on the list?" will be the question lingering in our head for well over a month. While we wait for the next great episode of Heroes, we can get our fill of the characters we love still. Peter Petrelli, played by Milo Ventimiglia, will be appearing in the upcoming movie "Rocky Balboa" as Rocky, Jr (the son). Pretty cool. It's unknown if he inherits Rocky's ability to knockout opponents in the ring.

Also if you're an Ali Larter/Niki/Jessica fan, there's the Final Destination 1 and Final Destination 2 movies. I don't necessarily call these horror, because the villain is death, but unseen. It is quite graphic, but I think the premise of the movies is interesting enough. Check her out in those, she wisely did not appear in part 3.

"Mission Impossible 3", now on DVD, features a brief cameo from one of our Heroes. I won't say who it is, but it's an added bonus to see a decent action flick.

A few of the heroes have also appeared on various TV roles within the past several years. Feel free to browse the imdb.com Heroes page, which lists all the cast. You can see which movies and TV roles your favorite characters have had and maybe check it out in the interim.

And of course if you've TIVO'd or DVR'd or even "taped" (Im like Hiro I live in the past at times), episodes you can review them for clues to develop further speculations and theories about whats going to happen, who's who and why this or that has happened.
