Heroes

Being incredibly annoying and stupid.

olesmyhero · 5th December 2007, 14:02

Hiro should have chopped off Adam/Kenzei's head. That would have been cool.

air_mood · 5th December 2007, 15:13

They should cut off the Micah and Monica storyline. That is bloody annoying.

Noah is by far the best character

Count Duckula · 5th December 2007, 16:55

Noah shot Nathan in my opinion.

And I expect that at least one of Nikki and Nathan will stay dead. We can't keep having the Heroes die but then be brought back to life. It would be a shame, since I like those two, but meh.

air_mood · 5th December 2007, 20:05

Doesn't really look like Noah. At keast I wouldn't want it to be. Looked a bit like Sylar although it definitely would be impossible to have him in cahoots with Peter's and Nathan's mom. There might be a possibility of Noah though considering how he has re-sign with the Company. Damn Bob. Someone should kill him as well already.

Some Heroes stuff I found

Quote:

As most of us know, Volume 2 was heavily criticized by the fans and Tim Kring even apologized vowing to make the end of Volume 2 better and promised that Volume 3 will be even better. Thus, leading to script re-writes and also a alternate ending because of the strike allowing for Sylar to return.

What was Changed During Volume 2:
NOTE: These changes occurred for various reasons

1) Kristen Bell was originally suppose to be in 8 episodes and then killed off
but due to fan support they are keeping her around for a bit longer

2) Elle was setup as a Bob’s step daughter and the daughter of Meredith which in turn would have been Claire’s SISTER but they dropped it due to lack of storylline and plot holes.

3) Stephen Tobolowsky (BOB) also had a slightly different story, he was supposed to be more evil then he is now and even recruited his SON WEST to make Claire turn against her father this was dropped early in Volume 2 for “various reasons”.

Wow, so Claire was going to be Elle’s sister as Kristen Bell almost leaked when she was signed on to the cast and I never saw that West would be Bob’s Son, but it did feel like he was sent to watch Claire early on. Also, it did feel like Bob was planned to be this big EVIL character and then they backed off.

Ok now for what many of you want to know….the current direction for Vol. 3…please keep in mind nothing has been written and all of this is the “current” plan the writers have for the show. There is plenty of things that can change between now and well….whenever the show returns.

=========================
Spoilers Below
=========================

The Current Plan for Volume 3:

1) Ali Larter will return to the show (as Kristin at E!Online has already reported) but are planning to wrap up her storyline up in Volume 3. (eitor’s note: Also, there are rumors floating around that Ali Larter’s evil alter ego Jessica will be a part of the Volume and not Niki.)

2) Micah’s storyline will end also

3) David Anders (Adam) will return and will meet a new friend

4) Adrian Pasdar (Nathan) well thats it up to the fans and he “might be back so don’t worry.”

5) Zachary Quinto (Sylar) will be more bad ass then ever and when we come back he will kill a star on the show

6) Villains is the start of something bigger for Heroes and hopefully it will be more fast pace then Generations (Volume 2).

or of darker storylines for the Superhero genre so it is good to hear that Adam and Sylar will be back terrorizing the Heroes.

Heroes Redux: Who's Dead and Who's Not, with Special Guests Adrian Pasdar and Leonard Roberts!
Categories: heroes, video clips

Now you've seen it. Now you know. (And you shouldn't read another word if you haven't seen last night's Heroes!)

Our beloved Adrian Pasdar (Nathan), Ali Larter (Niki) and David Anders (Adam) were all apparently killed off—shot, blown up and buried alive.

It reminds me of a little line I just heard: "You show me a hero, and I'll show you a dead man." And funny enough, that line was written by Mr. Adrian Pasdar himself, for his new play Atlanta, a Civil War-era musical playing at the Geffen Playhouse in Los Angeles.

Adrian cowrote and directed Atlanta, and he cast his good friend and old Heroes buddy Leonard Roberts (D.L.) as one of the leading men. (Yes, D.L. sings! And he's good!) So, I hit the theater of the weekend to chat about the play and ask the money Q: Is Nathan gone for good?

See for yourself what Adrian says in the clip above! Then keep on reading for the scoop on who's really gone and who's coming back in the last Heroes ep we'll see for a while...

WHAT WE LEARNED

Three Heroes Have Fallen—Who Will Rise? We all know Claire's blood can save the world and pretty much everyone in it, so who'll get the hot cheerleader injection (wait, that sounded dirty) and come back to the show? Based on what I'm hearing from inside sources, here's where I'd put my money...
Ali Larter

Ali Larter: According to Heroes insiders, Niki is not expected to return to the show. But her devilish alter ego, Jessica? Oh yeah, we'll see her as soon as the show comes back to the beloved airwaves—when the strike is through! At least, that's the plan according to sources who tell me producers had "done all they could do" with Niki. Micah is not gonna be happy. But at least he'll have Monica...
David Anders

David Anders: I'd bet my beloved, signed Hiro poster that Hiro's sworn nemesis will return. (I've seen that '90s flick The Vanishing and know people can be dug up after being buried alive! Maybe we can even get Kiefer Sutherland to do the digging!) Sources tell me it's not set in stone, but the tentative plan is for Adam Monroe to be back to torment our favorite squinty teleporter—i.e., the "carp." Here's hoping he does.
Adrian Pasdar

Adrian Pasdar: I've heard the production and writing staff is somewhat split as to whether Nathan should return to the show. Allow me to be the first to say WTF? Heroes without the brothers would be like Prison Break or Brothers & Sisters without the brothers: a waste of time! Surely Claire's blood can save her own father, right?! Let's say a little prayer for the older Petrelli, shall we?

Also in this episode...

Peter's powers—picked a peck of pickled peppers? How great is Milo Ventimiglia mixing up electricity, radiation, telekinesis, teleportation and mind reading? If Volume III: Villains is about Peter vs. Sylar, then sign me up!

Did anyone else sense a little Elle-Mohinder chemistry? Matt, don't look now, but you might have some competition!

Instant postep spec on the Internet is that HRG shot Nathan, as his side of the deal with the Company to protect Claire.

What happens when Micah becomes a sad little kid with no parents and a lot of power?

From reader Gerald: "How did Claire's blood fix HRG's glasses? Is there a LensCrafters at Primatech?" Ha.

WHAT LIES AHEAD

Books? Knitting circles? Fierce Jenga competitions? Sock-drawer reorganization?

As you may have heard, this is the last Heroes we'll get until the bad thing (strike) ends, so we'll have to find some other way to bide our time!

Those of you who live in Los Angeles can always go and visit two possibly dead guys (nooo) over at Adrian and Leonard's new musical, Atlanta.
Adrian Pasdar, Natalie Maines

It's playing through Jan. 6, and I should tell you, it's good enough to make Adrian's toughest critic—his wife, Natalie Maines (pictured above with Adrian, Leonard and actress Amie Farrell)—tear it up on opening night. (And I hear she knows something about music.)

Quote:

After Volume 2 Finale, Tim Kring gave an interview to TvGuide about Heroes Volume 2 “Generations”…

The fate of Nathan, who was shot during a TV press conference, and of Niki, who may have died in an abandoned building explosion, are “up in the air and will be determined when we come back after the strike,” Kring says. “Things are fairly dire for them both.” Immortal Adam was teleported by Hiro (Masi Oka) into a coffin buried in the same Japanese cemetery where his father Kaito (George Takei), who was slain by Adam, is also buried. “It’s poetic justice to have Adam end up in the same graveyard as Kaito,” Kring notes. “We’ve given the audience no reason to believe that Adam can figure a way to get out of there. The fact that he can live forever makes this the most gruesome of internments. If this happened to any of us, at least we’d know we’d soon have the mercy of death. Not here.”

Witchy, bitchy Elle, who wound up saving the lives of Mohinder (Sendhil Ramamurthy), Maya (Dania Ramirez) and little Molly (Adair Tishler), clearly sparked when Mohinder called her a hero. “Kristen Bell gave us the perfect reaction in that scene,” Kring says. “For a moment there, Elle sees she’s been given an opportunity to use her powers in a good way. And she absolutely likes the sound of that word ‘hero.’” Not to worry. There are plenty more baddies coming after the writers’ strike concludes. In fact, the title of Volume 3 — “Villains” — says it all.

“Sylar getting his power back does not bode well for our heroes,” says Kring, who admits there is one upside to the writers’ strike: Originally, Quinto was not going to be available for much of Volume 3 because of his commitment to the new Star Trek film. Now, with the strike dragging on, he’ll likely be done playing young Spock by the time Heroes returns to production.

Considering the series got cut short, i didn't think it was that bad.
I actually think that Bennet is a fantastic actor and i'm glad he's not been killed off.

Shotgun raisin · 5th December 2007, 22:17

I haven't watched a single episode of Heroes despite it being right up my street TV-wise. One of the things that annoys me about TV series in general is all the breaks and season ends that you have to endure. I've resolved not to watch a minute of this show until after the last episode airs. Then I'll buy the boxset on DVD and watch the whole thing from beginning to end at my own leisure. That's the plan anyway.

Reflectorboy · 5th December 2007, 22:31

I rewatched the scene and paused when the killer was walking away. It could never be Noah as the frame is too small compared with his. The frame of the man looks like Peter (not saying its Peter) or Sylar (couldn't be him though, he has nothing to do with the Company). I think it might be one of the new 'villains'.

Sam#1 · 5th December 2007, 22:46

I just watched the Season One series finale on BB2, and to be honest, it was a bit of a let down, compared to the rest of the series. Never the less, I can't wait for the next season as this one was fantastic!

No way it's Peter as he is together on stage with Nathan and Hiro.

Peter has Hiro's power though

Thing that stops me thinking it is peter though is that angela says something about opening pandoras box which makes me think she is talking about peter and his powers.

I didn't say it was Peter, I said his frame was like Peter's and Sylar's. You try watching the scene again and pausing it when he walks. No way it is West. And I heard the West theory did not went through. Would be super stupid if it did as how does Noah not know that West is part of them? The cartoon strip also suggests that West was abducted. If he was Bob's son, he would be with the company from young unless Bob was having an affair. This is the only explaination but I think would be a very stupid one to explain his connections.

Season Two has finished on terrestrial TV over here a week or two ago, I can't believe how short it was, eight episodes compared to like 24 of them in the first series.
Download them, although it's not as good as the first series.

How come whenever Hiro travels to the past,say for 2 months,comes back to the present 2 months later,can't he just teleport back to the time just after he left..... why write all that shit to ando through that scroll..... even when he gets knocked out by peter and wakes up later to realise he's lost time,can't he just transport back to the time he got knocked out to provide better resistance?

Ekeke · 6th December 2007, 18:05

HRG was the only reason to watch this series. Complete and utter shite.

"Well at least we get Sylar back next series"

Yes, a series too late.

Seriously, it took at least 8 episodes before there was anything slightly interesting happen.

Having a time traveller does present many loopholes but the writers can only do so much.
