    jason's Interests
Generalcomics, animation, video games, films, exercise, animals....I'll think of more later
MusicLove metal/hardcore or whatever you crazy kids are calling it these days; Metallica (the "Black" album and anything before it), Marilyn Manson, Fear Factory, Rage Against the Machine, The Ministry, Pantera, etc etc
MoviesThe Godfather 1 and 2, Shawshank Redemption, The Iron Giant, The Incredibles, goofy sophomoric comedies like "Van Wilder" and "The Forty Year Old Virgin", horror movies too, both old and new "Dawn of the Dead", "The Thing" (and basically any old John Carpenter flick)
TelevisionEureka, House, Bones (except for Season 3's finale--ugghh) The Office, My name is Earl, Ace of Cakes
BooksYes, I admit it, I read and enjoy the 'Harry Potter' books. Favorite of all-time though is Heinlein's "Stranger in a Strange Land", Malcom X's autobiography, Frank Miller's "Dark Knight Returns" and "Batman:Year One" (not technically novels but still spectacular) and Alan Moore's "The Watchmen"
HeroesOutside the stock answer of "my parents", I'd say artists like John Buscema, Bill Peet, Art Adams, Bill Watterson, Berkeley Breathed, Mike Mignola, Frank Miller, Bernie Wrightson, Frank Frazetta, Vaughn Bode, Michelangelo, Carravaggio, Mucha...and on and on...Otherwise, writer Robert Heinlein, Malcom X, Jon Stewart, David Cross....again, more later...
