Heroes -- watch out for **SPOILERS**

**Darkthoughts** · 05-22-2007 02:38 AM

A little behind you guys over here in the UK, but I'm loving this series nevertheless.
Discuss, theorize...feed me spoilers!!

**OchrisO** · 05-22-2007 02:48 AM

I just watched the season finale tonight with my group of friends who get together for it every monday. It is the ebst show on television right now. I look forward to it more than Lost most weeks, and that is saying a lot. I can't wait for season 2.

**Baradin** · 05-22-2007 07:40 AM

Well Now that Season one is over, what do you think? Personally I was very happy with the entire season. I think they set us up for a very nice ride. Well written characters, great plot, and amazing sub stories kept this show running without all the bad that happened to LOST (mind you second season is where Lost jumped the shark IMO, so lets hope Heroes doesn't fall that way.)

The only character I could have done without is Nikki/Jessica, but thats cause I can't stand Ali Larter. Had she been anyone else (Eliza Dushku Yeah!!) I would have had NO complaints.

As Hiro would say "YAAATAAAAAA!!!!" And man does the first episode of Volume two look like it's gonna be a humdinger!!

I used to be really annoyed by Mohinder, but by the time he had his run in

Spoiler:

I started to like him. He's also pretty hot. So that's a bonus.

I loved when Ando said to Hiro, "you look badass". It made me laugh how much that cheered Hiro up.

I'd only ever seen Ali Larter in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back before, so I was really impressed with her in this show. I think shes believably nice and evil by turns so she works for me - what don't you like about her?

I love Eliza D, but she is forever typecast as Faith in my mind

**Baradin** · 05-22-2007 10:22 AM

I just don't like her acting style I suppose. I find her rather wooden and unconvincing. Her only goodish role, IMO, was Final Destination (the first one). And seriously I think I woulda cast, ummm.... If they coulda gotten her Christina Ricci.

**sarajean** · 05-22-2007 11:11 AM

i still hate mohinder. with a passion.

the finale last night was good...until all the cheese.

i'm looking forward to next season, though...and the origins mini-series, as well.

**Darkthoughts** · 05-24-2007 04:53 AM

Mini series? Who, what, where and when?

**Baradin** · 05-24-2007 08:56 AM

Yeah this summer is supposed to be a 4 episode "Mini series"

Also The Following Characters are Guaranteed next season (anyone I don't mention hasn't been confirmed):
Sylar
Peter Petrelli (Emo McDroopylip)
Claire Bennet
Hiro Nakamura (Now there's some arguement as to whether or not Takezo Kensai is actually his Father - could be it looked like Sulu under that mask....)

No one else is solid confirmed from any of the places I searched (wiki, nbc ect)

Anyone have a date for the start of the Miniseries or Volume 2?

**ErinPatricia** · 05-24-2007 12:53 PM

first off "Emo McDroopylip" is the funniest thing I have seen in a long time.

I do not make plans with my friends on monday nights. People say "Wanna go out monday night?" My stock answer is "Cant. Heroes is on."

Obsess much. Possibly lol

I liked the finale, except for the Superman 4 ending.
I cant wait for "Origins" and Volume two to come out.
And no matter what Blake says, I'm still convinced that Linderman is the Petrellis father

**Darkthoughts** · 05-24-2007 01:53 PM

^Whoa, thats so what I've been thinking too!!

Emo McDroopylip - poor Pete!! Its an endearing feature

Although I have to admit to my favourite ep so far was watching him get character assasinated by the invisible man and pushed off a roof

**Baradin** · 05-24-2007 02:02 PM

I was cheering when Sylar cut off that emokid lock of hair : evil Sylar grin :

**sarajean** · 05-24-2007 02:14 PM

i read that origins will be during sweeps next february...not this summer.

i'm hoping i'm wrong.

he drives me crazy! I usually fast forward through all his scenes

I liked the finale, except for the Superman 4 ending.

that's exactly what is was!

EDIT:

oh and I hate this show and I'm not watching it next season.

(i reserve the right to change my mind without notice

)

**OchrisO** · 05-24-2007 07:53 PM

Psssht. You know you will be watching it.

**BlakeMP** · 05-24-2007 07:58 PM

I TOTALLY don't see a Superman 4 ending...

For one thing, the ending of Heroes was actually watchable...

**Fishonabike** · 05-25-2007 09:19 AM

My overall opinion of the Heroes finale... flat. The final showdown was sort of meh.
Again, that's my opinion.

I still love the show and can't wait for next season.

**Old Man Splitfoot** · 05-26-2007 02:41 PM

You know, even though I really enjoyed the finale, I do agree it was a bit flat. I've been wanting an epic Peter VS Sylar fight since I came to the conclusion that Peter is a perfected version of Sylar, and the end of "Five Years Gone" only made me want to see the fight even more. But they spent too much time setting up all the heroes getting out of Linderman's office, so the fight just sort of fell flat. I did like that Isaac Mendez's portrayal of Hiro defeating Sylar came true; Isaac was one of my favorite characters, and he will be sorely missed by me, even though I totally saw his death coming.

Speaking of Isaac, I really hope they keep putting his paintings throughout the next season. Maybe someone can bust out a cashe of paintings he hid somewhere, so he can go on making predictions into the next season. As a huge comic book fan that I am, I couldn't help but like the artwork that Tim Sale did for the show; I want to see more. When the first season comes out on DVD, I'm really hoping they package the DVD set with a booklet of the paintings. Or hell, release an "Art of Heroes" book. I'd buy it.

**Darkthoughts** · 06-05-2007 02:44 AM

Oooh - Company Man aired here last night...it was AWESOME!!!! Really unexpected background info on HRG...and Hiro's dad!! Holy macaroni!! Is he the boss of the organization? Is he Linderman?

**Baradin** · 06-06-2007 05:12 PM

Did anyone else notice that Sylar had painted Uluru/wolfman in his own blood (as a future telling like Issac) right before he got dragged down into the sewer? Hold on I'll get a screencap and post the pic.

Hmmm... A new bigger badder Badass? Someone to control even Sylar? Stay tuned eh?

**OchrisO** · 06-06-2007 05:14 PM

I hadn't noticed that, but the little girl with the tracking powers did mention a person that was way more evil than Syylar who could see her when she tried to look for him.

I still thing it is the Eye of Sauron though.

**Baradin** · 06-07-2007 06:21 PM

Well we've seen multiple paintings (by Issac) of a big rock like beastie (Uluru) who I am assuming is the next ubervillian.

**Mordred Deschain** · 08-26-2007 05:47 PM

Anyone a Heroes fan? Second season starts Sept. 24, 2007. I liked the first season. I thought it was a bit slow, LOTS of character development. Couple episodes erked me. What's your thoughts?

**Mike Beck** · 08-27-2007 05:22 AM

what it is, Mordred. I'm a fan of the show. And I agree with you, there were times when it was a bit slow. the last part of the season felt a little rushed or something after that hiatus. The momentum dropped. But Lost season 1 had some iffy moments too, so I'm gonna withhold my judgement on Heroes until this season is underway.

anyway, the characters are great. the style of the show is great. i'm excited to see where they go with the story now.

i'm psyched. the few previews out there look pretty rad as hell.

**sarajean** · 08-27-2007 11:06 AM

<---is a heroes fan, as well. however, this should be merged with the pre-existing heroes thread.
