Its very well written. I expected it to be corny to be honest, but I was really impressed. They even manage to place humor in there with the guy who can transport (ie. he transported into the girls bathroom etc). I admit though, the cheerleader who can't be hurt creeped me out a bit.
I'm pretty sure it required no acting prep for ali larter to work on her role as an internet stripper. I wouldn't be suprised if she actually did that for supplemental income.

I'm enjoying the show so far, but there's waaaay too many commercials. It feels like there's 3 minutes of show, 5 minutes of commercial, another 3 minutes of show, and so on. Just as I'm getting really into it, bam, another commercial break.
I'm tempted to just start Tivo'ing it and watching it on Tuesdays and skipping the commercials.

I thought of that too at first. I think it's kinda cool though how they've been bringing things together. I think that the ending of the last episode was absolutely insane.
I think it's definitely going to be a cool show and hopefully it stays interesting and doesn't get all cheesy.

I'm pretty sure it's suppose to be comic book-esque. If you like reading comic books or anything of the likes, then you'll like this show. I grew up reading X-men/Marvel comic's, so I'm diggin' this show.
And with that...I was pretty disappointed with X-men 3. They messed up the story line of Phoenix. And I'm stoked that they are making War Song, yeah!

They show reruns on sci-fi sometimes so you might beable to catch up that way. But it's not a really deep show they have powers and are just figuring out what they are.

Another addict over here, but the show reminds me more of the old The Tomorrow People than anything else. Same basis in the storyline of people getting their abilities from the next stage in evolution.
Still, it's really well done with small cues everywhere, like Hiro's co-working watching Nikki in Las Vegas on his computer, or Isaac working on his painting while a campaign ad plays for Petrelli in the background. I loved how Claire's 'father' is signified by his glasses, like when he was in Suresh's father's apartment and he left his glasses on the book, or when he got into Suresh's cab and all you could see in the rear-view mirror was the glasses.
I managed to get my mother and myself addicted from the first show somehow. It gets recorded on the DVR so we can watch it later without commercials, but we often end up just watching it when it's actually on.
We do the same thing for Eureka on the Sci-Fi Channel. Amusing, given neither of us are much for sci-fi stuff.
I'll have to agree with what's been mentioned before. Claire absolutely freaks me out when she gets hurt. It's like the people are actually trying to get us to look away. I mean, come on, she can put her hand in the garbage disposal, but don't have her hold her hand up for us to see!

The movie was just based on the comic book characters not following same plot. It is just liek that with the comic books. They have several universes/story lines. This was just another.. that is how I see it.

The powers are probably genetic, since it's supposed to be evolution, and evolution is passed down and all that. That kid will definitely have some sort of power, those weren't Claire's real parents, and the Petrelli's father probably had a power as well.
I wish they'd get into the Syler thing more, as they've only touched on that once or twice, and it seems like it should be really big. Right now the bad guy of the show doesn't really seem like that much of a bad guy.
I also wish there'd be less fucking commercials.

FarScape was the last decent science fiction TV series.
I don't even think that non-SciFi channel orignal series and/or movies can be considered science fiction :smug:
Roger R. Cross in First Wave was the sickest shit (like, good sickest of shittiness.)
I dare someone to try and compete with John Rhys-Davies' performance in Sliders.
Cube (not Hypercube) and Mr. Stitch were some awesome SciFi channel produced movies, too.
Wow. Sorry for the tangent.
Numbers
11-01-2006, 01:35 AM
Except Petrelli needs to be near the person whose power he's mimicking. That's why he can only fly when he's with his brother, and he was only able to paint the future near Isaac.
Besides, it looks like Syler has some sort of telekinetic power, since two of his victims were in impossible positions, and he's apparently able to stop bullets, or at least survive getting shot.

I've got this brilliant idea for a TV show where the FILTHY ANTI-DURKHEIMIAN PAGANS try to corrupt these UPRIGHT GOD-FEARING CHAMPIONS of MORAL ORDER and also they fly around in starships and after awhile how about some soft-core pornography? and then in the end everyone gets all Raptured up and Jesus sings twangly campfire songs and everyone gets smores and people who don't like smores get CAST INTO GEHENNA where they only get chocolate bars and no marshmallows what do you think? :)

Ok so now that the season is over (good finale btw), what do you think is going to happen next season? When I first heard they were going to do another season I thought it was going to suck as my favorite part was the character background reveals, but I think they did a good job of leaving just enough ends untied to warrant a good second season.
Is Syler dead? Did some yet-to-be-seen villain drag him into the sewers or did he crawl there himself? Did he turn into the cockroach? There was a cockroach in his prison cell at the paper factory.
Who do you think the person is that Molly is afraid to finding because he can see her when she can see him? Maybe that kid that can walk into dreams that was saw in India?
Also what happened to the Haitian?
This show was probably my favorite in the last few years besides 24, I can't wait for next season. What are your theories?

Sylar clearly still alive. The guy that scares molly will be then next big villian when Sylar is killed off early next season.

What I love about this show is how its totally X-Men in a world that didn't have Xavier and Magneto forming different camps and forming super teams.
They seemed to stay away from all the Marvel stereotypes.
Nikki = Hulk with the Bruce Banner anger management problem
Hawkins = Shadowcat
Hiro = Cable maybe?
Peter = Mimic
Isaac = ??
Claire = Wolverine
Micah = Forge
Parkman = Xavier with only one-way telepathy
Mohinder = Xavier without POWARS
Molly = Non-mechanical cerebro
Persuader Chick = Poison Ivy (DC and Not Marvel, I know)
Blazing247
05-29-2007, 03:57 PM
Speaking of Parkman, I hope they don't kill him off (doubt they would). He's one of my favorites.
The second season either isn't going to begin as I expected, or they messed up a few things with season one. At one point, the bomb is predicted to explode 2 days after the election, and yet Peter explodes the night OF the election. Either they messed up, or it wasn't the bomb they saw in the future and another will go off (Sylar).
Also Sylar has the morph ability in the future scenario, but we don't see Candace getting killed.
They changed the future by killing (we think) Sylar before the bomb explodes. Well if Sylar isn't dead, he can still blow up the city. Sylar also hat DL's ability in the future, and he was killed by Linderman. Nathan was Killed by Peter exploding, so him flying as he did in the future doesn't add up. I think we're meant to believe that the future has been altered.
Drew2
05-29-2007, 05:14 PM
I'm not convinced Nathan is dead. Peter can fly too, you know. I'm guessing he just helped him get up there then flew away and let him explode.
Also WTF IS UP WITH THE END? I sure hope they don't play out that "Hiro in the past" shit too long, it looked retarded.

Goretawn

I think Sylar is alive.
The evil that can see when the little girl is looking is Patrelli's mother (if not, what is her power then?).
Hiro goes back to find that he is the samurai warrior.
I don't think DL is dead. I may be wrong, but that was not a definate. Now, Lynderman is dead. That was the best kill of the show too.
They showed Sylar flying as well in the future episodes, but if he is dead in the explosion, then the future has changed.
I also hope Peter has that wicked scar when he comes back, that was nice make-up work.
AestheticDeath
05-29-2007, 07:05 PM
Peter being flown off by his brother doesn't make sense since he can fly. Unless he was too weak to do it or something.
Peter having a scar doesn't make sense, because he can heal himself.
How did Sylar appear out of nowhere at the end? Did he get to the invisible guy finally and kill him? Or did he kill the mentally morphing/alter reality chick?
I am pretty sure he escaped down the sewer - somehow.
Pretty sure DL is still alive, even though he got shot - he helped his woman out of the building and the 3some family was all represented watching Peter get flown off.
There was a bunch of other stuff that didnt make sense to me - but I have a short memory, would have to go rewatch it online or something.
Blazing247
05-29-2007, 07:33 PM
Peter being flown off makes sense. He can't control all of his abilities at all times, and he was already struggling with making sure he didn't explode. Him having a scar doesn't make sense, other than maybe in the future the cheerleader dies and he loses her power? Except in the future, she's still alive and just on the run if I recall correctly?
I know the invisible man was killed, but I think it was by Noah Bennett and the Haitian, but I'm not sure. The morphing chick is still alive according to what's been shown.
Also, the samurai being Hiro is a good thought, but I actually think it's Hiro's dad. If not dad, definitely someone related.
Peter being flown off by his brother doesn't make sense since he can fly. Unless he was too weak to do it or something.
Peter can only use one power at a time. Since he was already fighting Ted's power he couldn't call up the power to fly until he got Ted's power under control.

Renian
05-30-2007, 09:07 AM
Likely a best guess. However, I bet he can, at the least, use "always on" abilities in conjunction with anything else, like Claire's regen ability. Otherwise, he couldn't have been alive in the alternate future due to his meltdown.

Or he could take the brothers ability - whatever it is. Is it just something that neutralizes her ability? Does it neutralize all abilities? OR is another form of healing ability?
If its a type of neutralizing ability, and he took it - the girl would assumably wreck havoc without any control. And he could do a lot more damage to other people.

QFT. This season IS a real disappointment so far, it has a very odd feeling to it. It's almost like they brought these new cast members in JUST to appeal to different demographics without really worrying about how transparent it is. You have the dark, mysterious, cliche outcast high school "intelligent but hides it with sarcasm" flyboy to appeal to teenie boppers, the Mexican's so everyone can feel at home reading 6 minutes of subtitles an episode, and the English dude who I can only imagine is meant to appeal to older lonely women who miss MacGyver.
The appeal of the show, at least the first season, was that it had all these different tangents that hinted at being connected to eachother, but you could never guess exactly what was going to happen. Now you have all these different tangents that...go nowhere. I don't even care to guess what happens because the new Heroes are so annoyingly cliche. It's like they thought the Micah/Jessica storyline was so great in Season 1 and replicated it 3x over. Did ANYONE like the Micah storyline in Season 1?
Word, the flyboy (West?) is so annoying. I seriously can't stand that kid. Hopefully the new bogeyman kills him.

This season is shitty. Hero's part of the tale seems ok, but every other plot line is nonsensical and/or full of cliches. Are we supposed to find the Mexican chick sympathetic when she goes around killing people every time she wants to get to her brother? Why didn't what's-his-name just grab the damned box with his info and leave? Saresh has the Company keeping tabs on him, but he lives in the same house with cop who escaped their headquarters last season and the girl he kidnapped? WFT? This seems very poorly done.

Did they hire an entirely new team of writers or something? How could last season be so great and this season so awful?
I'd reeeeeaaally like it if West died a horrifically painful death. That smarmy, know-it-all, little asshole should be exterminated as soon as possible. The Mexican Wonder Twins are a bare step away.

What irritates me is that they spent practically 3/4 of the first season developing the relationship and trust between Claire and her father and finally revealing that her father wasn't that bad of a guy. And within three episodes they brought all that right to where it started.
I can't stand the flying kid. I wouldn't mind the Mexican twins if they hadn't just spent four episodes of them just driving around dirt roads in a jeep.
And the end of this episode makes it seem like this is a repeat of last season. Peter doesn't know what his powers are, everyone on earth is going to die, and it's up to him to stop it. Again.
And now we've got Veronica Mars doing Emperor Palpatine shit.

I'm predicting that the person who's offing all the old heroes (Sulu, mama Petrelli, daddy Parkman, fat bald guy, etc) is going to end up being the Brit Takezo Kensei. Either his power lets him never age, or Hiro somehow goes back to the present with him.

Actually - the guy so far has only shown an ability to heal himself. How could he have gotten into the middle of the police precinct to the Petrelli mother?

So, with the writer's strike happening, apparently this season is going to be cut short. They filmed a new season finale and everything.
That's probably the best thing that can happen to this season. End it quick and start from scratch next season. Tonight's episode was another snoozer.

I agree with pretty much everything that article said. Hiro was in Japan ENTIRELY too long and this season is moving at a snail's pace.
I'm guessing that the mexicans don't make it into next season, based on that article.

I think it's was a plan to shoot Claire's dad, use her blood to "raise" him, and thats how he survived.
The whole Adam/Claire blood healing everything is almost too much of a catch all, I mean, they can fix everything with it. I bet some blood disease happens at some point that makes it so that they can't fix everything.
AestheticDeath
11-20-2007, 11:17 AM
Yeah I am still not sure how they are pulling off that their blood can heal death it self. I mean its one thing to already have the blood and auto heal from wounds, but once your already dead for who knows how long.. That was stupid. And what do they gain by doing it? A guy who wants them dead?

I cheered when she died, because I figured then Sylar wouldnt get her power. Then they had to go and bring her back.
And Nathan getting shot - won't he just heal now that he has Adams blood in his system? Or is like like medicine that doesn't get assimilated? I am under the impression Noah and Nathan both have regenerative powers now. And Maya too I guess? And what the fuck is the Petrelli mothers Power? She has one right?

OH and Hiro putting Adam in a casket underground?! Sweet. But you could hear him screaming, I hope he dug him deeper than that, and it was just the 'TV show' allowing you to hear him.
That seemed rather poor planning on Hiro's part, to me. The casket will eventually rot and it's not like Adam's going to die. He may be able to dig himself out in the future. And then what will they have? A clever, insane man who is extremely hard to kill.

There's no way anyone could hear him. I also doubt Hiro knows the bullet to the head technique so this was a way to put him out of action.

Or Peter's I'd assume.
I kind of like the show, but there are so many plot holes, and characters that would have to be as dumb as a box of rocks.
That expression has always amused me, almost as much as "more blank than you can shake a stick at"... Are boxes of rocks really that dumb? I mean, there're things which, when put together in a box, would seem more dumb to me. What about a box of turds? That seems pretty dumb to me. Dumber, on the scale of box-of-things, than a box of rocks. Or a box of Uwe Boll movies. But maybe that's just me.
