The Linderman Group's Corinthian Casino & Hotel

It looks like that, sometime in the near future, HEROES fans will get to take "a virtual tour of Mr. Linderman's renowned collection of antiquities and modern art!"

This site is where you can play some online poker, slot machines, and blackjack, and when ya accumulate enough "points" (300,000 looks like the minumum to qualify), then an invitation is given to become a member of the "Titan Club" (screenshot of pop-up invitation prompt). If you choose "Yes", then you'll eventually be sent to the Titan Club Membership Form (screenshot of the Titan Club Sign-up Form, although currently a redirect will send you to the main Titan Club page).

It'll be fun to see what Mr. Linderman's collection will include! I'd also like to know whether Ausiello or Kristin at eonline is correct about who is going to play Lindy, either Malcolm McDowell or Eric Roberts...

Thats pretty cool. Did you already get invited or something?

Hero · 02-20-2007, 12:16 PM

Well, I filled out the invitation form, but nothing further yet.

That sounds sweet

Is this part of Heroes 360 or just a little side attraction?

A password was given yesterday to gain "VIP" admittance to Mr. Linderman's Gallery. If you enter "sword" (without the quotation marks) as the password at this login page, you should get to the page that looks like this screenshot.

So far, 7 images are available, which you can click to see below if you want, and you can compare the images of Isaac's paintings we haven't seen before with some similar scenes from the episodes that have already aired (for which I happened to have gotten screencaps, since some of the scenes were from "Collision"):

Photo #1. Samurai sword allegedly owned by Takezo Kensei - leather, steel and wood with decorative markings - circa 1580 - "Allegedly"? Who doesn't think Hiro goes back in time and is Takezo?!? Anyway, here is a view of the sword that we saw in Hiro of the Future's possession in "Collision" and "Hiros" (screencap and swf vidcap).
Photo #2. Japanese tapestry depicting Takezo Kensei - artist unknown - watercolor on silk, stretched over wood panel, circa 1595 - It's interesting that in this shot, the panels are in a different order compared to what you can see from the museum (I wasn't getting a screencap of the tapestry at the time, but you can see a little bit of the panels rearranged in this set of pics). Also, you can see that the subtitles showed that warrior's name to be Takezo Kensai.
Photo #3. "Girl On Autopsy Table" - Isaac Mendez - oil on canvas, 2006 - This painting shows Claire after the stick was removed from her cabeza.
Photo #4. "The President Stands Alone" - Isaac Mendez - oil on canvas, 2007 - This painting of the future seems to show Nathan in the Oval Office. Interesting! That would mean Nathan doesn't die from any NYC incidents...
Photo #5. "The Mirror Has Two Faces" - Isaac Mendez - oil on canvas, 2006 - This scene is when Niki and (at the time, I just called her Ikin) Jessica are split in the reflection of the elevator doors in "Collision".
Photo #6. "Tourists" - Isaac Mendez - oil on canvas, 2006 - It's Hiro and Ando by the bloody Homecoming Banner.
Photo #7. "Unknown Man" - Isaac Mendez - oil on canvas, 2007- When compared to the scene where HRG is looking at Niki and Nathan in "Collision", it appears that the unknown man is Mr. Bennet. Did Isaac give the paintings the titles? If so, and Mr. Linderman didn't recognize the glasses, then does it mean Lindy and HRG do not know each other? I thought that they did...

So what's with the dates of some paintings being in 2007? I thought this was still set in Oct/Nov of 2006?!? If the dates are correct, then, in the HEROES 'verse, the paintings are from the future? Wild.

Hero --> THANK YOU!!!!!!

So, Linderman has a painting of Nathan as President and he sends Niki to kill him, the guy he gave money? I mean, shouldn't he own Nathan. Why would he want to kill him? UNLESS, he believes Isaac's paintings can't be changed and thinks sending an assassin doomed to fail will boost Nathan's spotlight, allowing Linderman to eventually have the President in his pocket... hmm?

Or, Nathan did something to peeve Linderman off and he is sending Niki to make sure Nathan doesn't become President. But what did Nathan do? Since we don't know IF Nathan did anything, Occam's razor would suggest the first plausibility is the more likely, right? AND, if Linderman is a fan of Occam's razor himself, since we haven't seen any of Isaac's paintings to be categorically wrong, wouldn't that make Linderman believe nothing he can do can prevent Nathan from becoming president?

Ahhh that made my head hurt!

Wouldn't it take a LONG time for Nathan to become president? He's running for Congress now, so he'd still have to wait until 2012 to get a shot at the Oval Office.

Yes, but once you buy a politician (illegally like Linderman has done) you own them. Nathan couldn't allow his accepting of illegal donations to escape or he could kiss his career goodbye. Having the future President of the USA in your back pocket would be well worth the wait.

And, the writers of the show have hinted that Isaac might be able to see LONG into the future. (*cough* Uluru *cough*)
