Hopefully it is more similar to the assertion of JMS - Not only did he know where B5 was going over five years, the show actually went somewhere each individual year.n Something I am told Lost cannot claim.
HOpefully heroes producers and writers will stick to their plans and not divert because of media or studio pressure.

That was/is thep roblem with LOst. I think they began to getlost themselves trying to cater to a lot of demands.

Hiro did not have a sword, though, when he sees the (same) T-Rex, so the future vision doesn't match what we've seen so far.
When he saw the dinosaurs the first time, he did not have sword.
But the second time, he was wielding the (false) sword in front of the dinosaur, just like in the picture. I don't think the picture is detailed enough to show us whether Hiro is holding the real sword or the fake one, so it seems it is was just a clever ruse of the authors. Though it could be a "double ruse", and make us all believe that that's what the picture was all about. :)
 

I may be talking out my butt on this one, but I don't think that it was the scene painted either. IIRC (which I may not) the picture of Hiro battling the T-Rex had substantially different lighting than the museum shot - I think the background was orange in the former and blue in the latter. Since they're been pretty exact about Isaac's paintings, as far as setting the shots up goes, I'm not entirely convinced.

That said, I find it likely it may be the same.
 

In the museum the sword is in its sheath and the background is indeed mostly blue. In the painting the sword is unsheathed and the background is indeed orange.

Otherwise, though, it is incredibly similar, and it works for me. The reason it didn't seem right before was because I remembered the unsheathed sword in the painting and that the one he grabs doesn't even have a blade. But yeah, I suppose it's good enough.

You're probably right. It seems out of character for the show to actually have Hiro battle, or even encounter, a living T-Rex. Almost silly, actually.

So....

Who is the next to die?

I wanted to write the same thing, first, but then I thought: "Come on, we are talking about a show with superheroes using questionable genetic science as its excuse for superpowers..." :)

Phoey on you. I was talking about thematically, in terms of mood and feel of the show. It is silly to suggest squinting your eyes changes the time stream, but the program has not gone into "fighting with dinos" silliness yet.
 


A dinosaur storyline could be done well if the right amount of tme and realism was put into it. I didnt think a superhero show could come off looking like anything but greatest american hero.
