Heroes Volume 3 : Villains


Recommended Posts

No because losing his power wouldn't have killed him ;) (and the eclipse is not the source of the powers, foolish writers, it just doesn't make sense)

I thought that loosing his power was the reason he died? It looked that way anyhow ;)

I was referring to a debate many pages back about how he died. I argued that it wasn't logical that he would've died instantly and that instead a power was used on him, but it's trivial at this point.

Oops sorry i am trying to keep up :p Must be the old age...

Peter needs his powers back... Claire's story has to die off... Hiro either has been to be killed or locked in some time warped field...

I like the stuff with the new company and their father, it's a good story and good potential... but still, this show has way too much filler crap. Not developing characters, not doing anything, just wasting time

Another 'meh' episode for me. Couldn't believe that both Elle's and Daphney's feelings changed so suddenly. Hiro was really annoying before and i didn't think they could make him worse but somehow they managed it. Oh, and i'm still sick of seeing Claire, hopefully she isn't the catalyst.

Was indeed a "meh" episode. Hiro is really starting to annoy me now, i wouldn't be surprised if he isn't killed off the show soon.

I think this one one of the top episodes, with Villains as the #1. Kinda like how its back to being split up good vs bad now =]

I think with each season they should string them together in one big ass movie type thing. Each movie has an awesome connection like that. Would be worth the time

After what we've seen with season two and three, the writers big picture of a season isn't as fleshed as you want it to be.

Here is a summary of some of the key details from the most recent Behind the Eclipse Q&A.

This week is a pretty long list, so enjoy!!

1) The writers work as a team on the GNs with ideas pitched in a "loose rotation"

2) Episode 3x13 War - Building will be blown up, some stories and perhaps characters will be "put to rest", but there will still be no clear winner between the Heroes or Villains

3) Death is a necessary tool for the writers and maybe fans miss certain characters, but if they were not killed, they might not be missed as much

4) We have not see the last of Usutu (he was seen again in Episode 3x09 last night)

5) They try to explain the continuity error in the HRG/Elle/Sylar scene and it "infuriated" them.

6) We will learn a little bit more about "The Formula's" origins in some upcoming episodes.

7) Claire's future employment with Arthur was "averted or delayed" once Peter fell through the window.

8) Claire will not find out any time soon that her dad HRG was responsible for Sylar's path to killer. Sylar does not even know HRG was involved just Elle.

9) Most of the Heroes abilities come with side effects like The Hunger, but not as severe

10) We will eventually learn about Adam's kids, but not this season

11) Sylar gained the cryokinesis ability from James Walker by: killing, absorbing and then testing

12) Anyone with the ability to see the future is a threat to Arthur

13) If Arthur dies, all the powers go with him and are not returned to the original person.

14) It will not be that easy for Peter to regain his powers

15) Episode 3x11 - Sam and Frack will have a theory about the Eclipse being similar to the tides

16) They avoid answering several questions about Linderman and say "you never know"

17) HRG does feel guilty of making Sylar the killer he is

18) They would like to explore the story of Elle's mother but do not know when.

19) Episode 3x12 will see some "memory healing" (I assume this is related to Hiro)

20) Arthur doesn't use powers on Nathan, because they wanted Linderman to be feared thus he wanted to kill him hoping to send a message to the DA's office

21) Keep checking out the GNs for more character from "The List" to appear

22) Doyle will return in Episode 3x13 and will have at least one appearance in Volume 4

Some of those are pretty cool, and we finally know what ability Molly's dad had.

5) They try to explain the continuity error in the HRG/Elle/Sylar scene and it "infuriated" them.

Booyah.

11) Sylar gained the cryokinesis ability from James Walker by: killing, absorbing and then testing

The only problem I have with this is that he was in the process of scooping up some food. Why do this if your head is in the process of being ripped open? :unsure: Possible that Sylar used telekinesis to keep him still, but most of his other victims were flung against a wall. Meh, add it to the list, but it's no big thing.

This used to be my favorite show.

To hell with it. It's so stupid and I hate all the characters. They just keep trying to make this stupid **** work and I'm sick of it. I think anyone in this forum could write and make it work better. I'm tired of it. A great show ruined by morons. It reminds me of how these ********ers are trying get bailed out by Congress right now. Hang them all. It's worthless.

Correction: I think anyone in this forum like to pretend they could write and make it work better.

Go head, make your OWN show! And let's see if YOU really can do it better!!!

No sense in getting arrogant, without showing proof!

I must say I was all over this show long before it first came out.. And the first season I was so enthralled with it.....now I just DVR it on G4 and watch it whenever I get bored.. It's sad really, had such HUGE potential.

But I must say I find myself were I can't miss an episode of Chuck...and it used to be the other way around.

Have you not heard the words personal opinion before, why do you insist on jumping on people?

Personally and I said personally Heroes has become very tedious, I used to look forward to the next episode but I gave up watching 2 weeks ago.

Look, you dont like it, stop ur whinning and dont watch it!

Personally I'm enjoying this season and look forward to the eclipse.

I think the story is going fine. It is after all a comic story.

What happened to the days when we were all allowed to have our say? The topic title says Spoilers and Thoughts, are negative voices disallowed?

^the negativity level is turning into trolling/complete beat up.....

thoughts on shows are great, like lost it can be really interesting, but what is happening here is just plain throwing tomatoes and isnt really interesting to read. :/

Look, you don't like it, stop your whining and don't read it! :p

Incase anyone wants to know Samedi's power (Haitians Brother) is In penetrable Skin which is the same as from the extra from last season that wasn't used.

Thanks for that!

    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
    • Who is paying for this 30x scale-up? Its sounds expensive.
    • Millions of users to benefit from Windows 11's new performance boost on Adobe Photoshop by Sayan Sen Despite the advent of AI-generated imagery, Adobe's Photoshop remains one of the most popular tools on this planet. Adobe does not have a publicly reported total user count but it's probably not wrong to assume there are millions. As of 2025, Adobe Creative Cloud has had approximately 41 million paid subscribers, many of whom likely use Photoshop. In addition, more than 166,000 companies worldwide are apparently also using the app. These figures are according to a very recent report by SQ Magazine. Out of them, it is fair to assume that many are probably running Windows. As such, there is good news for these users as Microsoft has announced Photoshop is getting a big 20% performance boost on x86-64 (AMD64) systems and a 13% bump-up on Arm devices. This is definitely great news for them as many have complained about the slow performance and general sluggishness of Photoshop on Windows 11 ever since the advent of the latter back in 2021. If you are wondering how Microsoft managed to do this, the answer lies in a combination of compiler-level optimizations and a technology called Sample Profile Guided Optimization (SPGO). According to Microsoft, Adobe worked closely with the company’s Visual C++ team and adopted the latest MSVC toolchain enhancements together with SPGO to squeeze more performance out of Photoshop’s CPU-bound workloads. Unlike traditional Profile Guided Optimization (PGO), which requires developers to create special instrumented builds and run lengthy training workloads, SPGO gathers performance data directly from optimized release binaries. This means Adobe could collect real-world usage information which gives a major advantage to this technique, as companies could leverage data collected from actual customer workloads rather than only relying on synthetic benchmark runs. In theory, this should allow optimizations to better reflect how users interact with software in the real world. Thanks to this, there are improvements to code layout, function inlining, hot-and-cold code separation, and other low-level tweaks that help processors execute instructions more efficiently. Essentially the compiler is better able to identify “hot” code paths, those which are most frequently executed, and optimize them accordingly.

    • Glad these prices are starting to come down, but that is still crazy. I bought the 2TB 9100 Pro (slightly more expensive version with PCIe 5.0) last year for $240.
