Heroes

[OOO]

I figure that the lost people have their thread, so we should have a heroes thread too since

 

Heroes is better than lost.

 

with lots of spoilers from the current episodes!

 

 

I thought the last episode (5 years in the future) was awesome.

[Guest tandylacker]

I agree. Peter Patrelli kicked ass. Few questions though...

 

Sylar is apparently the president in the future. At this point, has he killed almost every hero that we have seen? Other than Peter, the cheerleader, Hiro, and Matt the cop.... ? Seems like he has everyone's powers. DL (black guy), Nathan Patrelli, nuclear fire guy, girl from the paper company the morphs, etc.

 

Why does Peter Patrelli have a scar across his face even though he can regenerate?

 

Do asian people really lose their accent when they lose hope in humanity?

 

Anyway, had a dream last night I was future Peter Patrelli. Yikes. I kicked ass, but it was a weird dream. There was a part in the dream in which I was trying to become invisible but I never could tell if I was invisible because I could still see myself. Didn't know if others could see me.

He also doesn't have Jessica/Nikki's powers or The haitin (since he cant get close to the haitin without losing powers) and probably not Linderman's ( and maybe not Christopher Eccleston - Invisible Guy) but who knows. Essentially, he killed the Mystique like character who can morph into anyone, took her power. Then he killed Nathan Patrelli and took his power and his identity. Now, he can have Matt the cop and Homeland security go out and get the "terrorist" heroes without being chased as sylar himself. Not a bad plan.

No idea, but I am thinking he probably was cut/injured by something superpowered that won't regenerate. Or its from the nuclear blast.

I'm thinking he just learned english really well from spending 5 years in New York.

 

MY big question has to do with Claire. It's clear that in the future claire survived (up until she was caught by sylar). This means that sylar didn't have claires powers when he was stabbed with Hiro's sword. This means he should have died, unless he already has some regenerationish powers. It just doesn't make sense that hiro is going into the past to save claire when claire is alive and sylar doesn't have his powers.

 

but its hard to get time travel to make sense so i won't question it.

 

Anyway, its not sylar blowing up - it's peter - so it doesn't matter if he gets stabbed or not.

Yeah, that part really confused me. Apparently Hiro did alter the future by going back in time to get Peter to save Claire, but it didn't make any difference - Claire survived, but the world was still fucked up anyway.

 

Also, how could someone as batshit as Sylar pose as the president for so long? You'd think he'd lose it after a month or two and try to eat someone's brains during a live press conference.

 

Oh well, I'll just distract myself from the plot holes by staring dreamily at Milo Ventimiglia.

[Guest tandylacker]

Yeah I'm wondering how many ideas they are using from fans submissions. One thing that was funny after the last episode in the preview for the next episode it said something like, "There's only one person that can kill Sylar, and she's 6 years old." Then it asks for fans ideas. "Who do you think can kill Sylar?" ...

 

Well the 6 year old....

 

Time travel makes plot holes unavoidable. Regardless of what happens, Hiro can keep going back in time and save the world. But hey, it's a show with a creative story line that hasn't been cancelled yet. So thumbs up from me.

The quote was "Save the cheerleader, save the world." They only saved her in present time, they need to continue to save her...

 

Maybe?

[OOO]

hmm...the latest episode was decent, though much less action then the last episode and felt more like setting up for next week. Questions...

 

Did sylar break off Hiro's time freeze or did Hiro break it off on his own by not concentrating?

 

Mohinder's blood will help the finding-girl even though they arent related?

 

Why do you they need to take backroads to New York if they have trackers on them?

 

What's Grandma Petrelli's power do you think?

[Lammycat]

I think Hiro lost concentration (chickened out) as Sylar hasn't taken his brain yet.

 

I'm thinking the finding-girl may be a patsy to keep Suresh off the path of Sylar until the explosion.

 

Not sure.

 

She's a cold-hearted bitch. Actually, it's interesting that she's got so much pull with Linderman. She may be behind the whole thing....

[Mrs. Peel]

I'm really looking forward to the finale. I think no one person can stop Sylar, and that we're going to see all the Heroes come together and use their personal powers to help each other in a specific sequence in order to take him out.

[damo]

i dunno about hiro losing concentration because in last weeks episode why didnt petrelli just freeze time and go kill sylar, i think its cause sylar is too powerful over the whole time thing, i dunno just a guess

[OOO]

She's a cold-hearted bitch.

 

 

It's so true!

 

Maybe that's her power: Channeling Angela Lansbury from The Manchurian Candidate.

In the previous episode, Future Hiro went back to talk to Peter (on the train) which resulted in claire being alive in the 5+ years future. BUT since present Hiro was in 5+ future in this episode HE WASN'T THERE to stab sylar. That's why in 5+ future they were confused that Issac's last comic didn't come true. Tho at the end he jumped back into the present so he could possible stab sylar aftet that point.

 

*I'm not reading any posts from today since I haven't seen the new episode yet! just thought I'd clear up that confusion from last week.

Thats an interesting take on things. I kind of like it!

[Saint Genevieve]

Can you actually kill someone with a pair of scissors?

[OOO]

Season Finale is tonight!

[aricandover]

Season Finale is tonight!

 

 

so much shit went down last week, I did not expect Linderman to bite it so soon.

[OOO]

Yeah I was expecting Linderman to be seriously long term. Same thing with Mr. Bennett's boss (Eric Roberts). But I like shows that aren't afraid to kill off characters when you don't expect it.

oh man, when Bennett killed Eric Roberts, that was some cold blooded shit. they've made Bennett such a likeable guy in last few episodes, that you forget what a heartless prick he was for most of the series.

[aricandover]

wow I'm more than pleased that they actually gave a proper climax and conclusion, I'm sick of these serial dramas being "all middle." tonight's episode actually deliverred, and can't wait for next season.

[Lammycat]

I'll assume all the heroes are still alive save Sylar.

[aricandover]

I think all of them are, including Sylar

[Lammycat]

What's your take on how Sylar survives? And why didn't Peter fly himself up to the deep skies and explode himself and then regenerate?

not sure how Sylar survived, but they did show that trail of blood leading to the manhole, he's down in the sewers.

 

as far as Peter goes, I'm assuming he's like Ultra-Boy, from the Legion of Superheroes, he has a bunch of different powers, but he can only use one at a time.

[Lammycat]

I'll buy that. Though a new villain for a new chapter would seem apt, too. I'm wondering if they all carry over their powers from the just finished chapter. Hiro seemingly does, though he did crash to the ground from the form of an eagle or hawk or something.

[OOO]

I don't think peter could concentrate enough to use any of his powers at the time. He wasn't able to control himself, so nathan had to fly up for him.

 

Regarding Heroes dying, I'm pretty sure Nathan didn't survive, but clearly peter did.

 

Didn't the little walker girl say there was one person much worse than sylar? Villian for Season 2?

 

P.S. me and my friend were trying to decide last month how we thought theyd stop the bomb and i figured it out exactly.

[alison the wilca]

isn't there going to be a nuclear rain over nyc now, or something?

 

why didn't any of the heroes notice that sylar disappeared? is he now going to be a mole person like felicity's weird roommate? oh! and the cop guy dated the weird roommate on felicity! what a connection. also, is he for sure dead?

 

what the heck is that symbol?!
