Five points back to OogieBoogie just for making nice in the thread. ;D
I see Lissa has jumped in with some big time points offerings. Clearly someone is trying to ruin the curve for the rest of the class, hmmm?
Remember all other questions remain open, optional and prone to frivolity and random point giving. on the parts of the judges. Just like this. TEN POINTS TO EVERYONE because I have mac' n cheese for lunch!
StarOpal - 66 points TheOogieBoogieMan - 59 points Lordmoon - 40 Ms. Jellybean - 35 points blinkfan - 30 points Big T - 25 points Arrgmematey - 15 points TheLuckyOne - 10 points pfrsue - (-5)

"I wasn't begging for my life. I was offering you yours." And SYLAR comes back in a big way! Woo!
And three cheers for mac n' cheese!

Personally, I think the lamest quote from Heroes is "Save the cheerleader, save the world." I don't want to save cheerleaders. Not even ones with superpowers.
Also, I now want mac n' cheese, but sadly only have leftover Chinese in the fridge.

The lamest quote from Heroes has to be "That sound, in your heart. What is it?" "MURDER." There is nothing at all cool about the exchange.

Five compensatory points to Ms. Jellybean for her appalling deficit in the mac 'n cheese department. Also five points to StarOpal for remembering to smile. Excellent.
StarOpal - 71 points TheOogieBoogieMan - 59 points Lordmoon - 40 Ms. Jellybean - 40 points blinkfan - 30 points Big T - 25 points Arrgmematey - 15 points TheLuckyOne - 10 points pfrsue - (-5)

The coolest line has to be one of Claude's. I'll go with:
"And when you've left New York a smoking wasteland we'll put that on your tombstone: 'Here lies Peter Petrelli. He tried.'"

Actually, Lissa is too lazy to do adding. 100 and 50 make life easy.
Although I personally think that Ando's "You start talking capes and tights and I'm out of here" rocks, I will concede that Elle's "They diagnosed me as a sociopath with paranoid delusions but they were just out to get me because I threatened to kill them" is exceedingly cool. Especially since I don't like the character and it still makes me laugh. So Lordmoon gets 100 points.
No one posted anything said by West, which would have automatically won for lamest. But I do have to agree that "That sound, in your heart. What is it?" "MURDER." was REALLY lame.
I hate Sylar.
Lordmoon - 140 points StarOpal - 71 points Arrgmematey - 65 points TheOogieBoogieMan - 59 points Ms. Jellybean - 40 points blinkfan - 30 points Big T - 25 points TheLuckyOne - 10 points pfrsue - (-5)

But shouldn't we take it as a good sign that nobody bothered to remember a line by West? Hopefully didn't remember West at all?

The thing that I like most about Heroes is the sometimes really good dialogue and the sometimes really bad dialogue. They've done a really good job in capturing the comic book fell even if non-comic fans don't realize it. Like when Hiro last night did a 180 from trying really hard to save his father to accepting that he cannot play god all within a 30-second scene. That's so comic book!

Season 2 character. Claire's newest love interest: Now with new stalker-y flavor!
Also a manipulative, whiny-bucket.
(And my favorite Hiro "line" is when they did the subtitle *GULP* or for actual line "Do not take the Unspecial Ando!" ... I love you Hiro!)

Whoa nellie! Are we getting off topic? Is the contest derailing? Do we not have an Heroes thread elsewhere on this forum? Is this a democracy? Why no!
Hmmmmm.....points may be docked. Bad things could happen!
Well, if all of my lovely Methos points are destined to be awarded to the existing Methos quoters, (hint hint) let us move along.
Okay, riddle me this. Which Farscape episode and/or character was the best ever? Explain in three sentences or less. Bonus points if you explain in haiku. I will give points for answers that I like--whether I agree with them or not. You might even get mentioned in an upcoming article. Oooooooh!

Here I am, making a stylishly late entrance! Yay! It was totally intentional!
My haiku:
The best character Was that one guy. You know, He does the stuff . . . yeah.
Bask in my Farscape knowledge!

People! Focus!
First, I'm going to award Sue 15 points to get her back on her feet, because the Game With No Rules rulebook says I can. To wit: "Under emergency circumstances--such as a negative score or Godzilla attack--a non-staffer may award points, under review of at least two staffers for the propriety of the amount awarded and validity of said circumstances."
(Plus, I expect it to pay off in spades!)
(People can't see what I type in parenthesis, because it's my thoughts!)
Drew, I'm going to guess that your avatar is the Wild Wolf version of Terry Bogard, simply because that's way too obscure to be correct.
As for the Very Sorry Song, I only know the closing lyrics, but I'm grafting in the guitar intro from "Welcome to the Jungle" to compensate. Kind of like using frog DNA to make dinosaurs:
(Guitar Intro) I'm so verry sorry that I stole your precious flaaaaag! Just don't do it again you scrurvy scalawaaaaag!
Speaking of lyrics:
Here we are, Born to be kings, We're the. . .
Guitar: "Bwooow."
. . .princes of the universe
Here we belong Fighting to survive In a war with the darkest powers
I could also tell you the exact point at which the full version of "Princes of the Universe" abruptly ceases to be at all cool, but I'm saving that ace for later.
