I agree but I did add the words thoughts to the post so people will speak and discuss them.

Thank you Rappy, I said that a few pages back but it seems that those of us who feel the show isn't as good as it used to be aren't allowed to join in. Anyway did anyone else notice Maya suddenly lost her strong Spanish accent in season 3 and is now an American? :laugh:

You should know, however, that your opinion is worthless to most of the posters on here because we know how close-minded and 'in the bag' you are for any show that you like. They could have Peter crap out a lightning bolt and throw it through Arthur to kill him, and you would tell us how it was the best thing ever.

I can NOT tell you how WRONG and judgemental you are, you always are! Not just you, but most of you that you seem to mention!

Whatever! I know I now DON'T give a **** what YOU think about me cuz you are Obviously WRONG about me! Sometimes I laugh to myself just HOW Ridiculous wrong you people ARE wrong about me, but in the end of day this is just a forum with different people with different attitudes, I try to NOT lose sleep over it!

I AM well proud of my Intelligence, and OPEN mindness, and I don't have to listen to your BS about me here I think most of you are actually the ones CLOSE minded and getting to arrogant all the time!

*SIGH*

Anyway, however, for the benefit of this thread, I want to be DONE with this childish bickering and stupid flaming that you guys always insisting to resort to!

You don't have to respond, and I DON'T have to, myself!

Let it be OVER!

You sir are the one who started this mess to begin with.

Maybe this is going to far with another post, but it has to be pointed out. Someone made a comment about the show's decline and you are the one who started that you "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!!!"

So don't try to blame anyone else on this "bickering" and "stupid flaming" but yourself.

I still 'Whatever' to that anyone on this forum can actually write better than show's writers!

I mean, that's NOT just opinion that the show's quality is bad, but it's the MOST useless and unproven arrogant statement that I have a Big issue with!

IF you really Can write better, then PROVE it, that's what I said and what I will stand by!

I am not going act so arrogant and say I can write better, UNLESS I can Prove it! And, I suggest that you PROVE what you say, otherwise why should I believe/respect it?

I think it's his excessive use of exclamation marks that throws people off. It kinda makes him look angry and confrontational all the time, maybe without meaning so. Dude, Jedi, try losing some of the exclamation marks. It really changes the tone of your posts :yes:

Anyway, I still enjoy Heroes, but also notice that writing has gone quite sloppy. I have never left a show I liked midway, but Heroes is really trying my patience right now.

How would you like them write it?

I think the show's writer's can do better than the effort they've put forth in this season, but I think they've been hampered by some corporate big wigs who thought that the rotating cast idea that the show was supposed to have wasn't a good idea because they didn't want to lose Milo or Hayden's "star power".

But the show's past the turning back point now.

I wouldn't go as far as calling it poor. I just feel it does not live up to the first season.

There are some things that annoy me to no end. Hiro, with his declining maturity level, and being relegated to some sort of comic relief (and trying too hard to be funny). What Arthur did just makes it worse. Of all the things that he could do to kill Hiro, he had to pick this. Maya, from the hardened woman with traumas, escaping to the US through some more traumatic events, and becoming the housewife-ey type once she met Mohinder.

As I said, I still enjoyed the show. I'm not claiming to be able to write better (god, I couldn't even write a 1-paragraph essay) but still think that the writers could have upped their standards a notch to something more on-par to season 1, where we care so much about the characters and their stories, and eagerly anticipating the following week to tell more about the characters.

Right now I just don't really care about Nathan, Mohinder, Hiro, and Claire's storyline. But it may just be me :)

Seriously, say HOW the show is not working... what parts of writing are poor?

And, HOW should it be written instead?

Well, how about we start with the over used twin? If they wanted to bring Ali Larter back, they shouldn't have killed the charater.

As I've said numerous times, there's no real consequences. If something happens, Peter or Hiro can just go back in time and change things. Which goes contray to the grandfather paradox.

I just don't care about any of re characters anymore. They are all dumbed down now (Peter being manipulated so easily by Adam; Mohinder turning out to be a bad guy; Sylar turning out to be a not so bad guy and the fact that he's even still alive erks me).

I can go on if you want, which I'm sure you'll easily rationalize every single one of my problems with the show, so there's no point in going on.

Think its been posted in the many threads created to help heroes :p

But its a good read, I love the show as I have said many times before and yes things need fixing, but I think some people over think the show to much to just enjoy it for what it is but I agree stuff needs fixing when you go in depth.

Are you blind?
Forgive me if this had been posted, but for the most I agree with how the EW feels about Heroes: http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20235213,00.html

Hey!

PROBLEM 1: TOO MANY HEROES

SOLUTION: RETIRE SOME CAPES

Kring originally envisioned Heroes as a series that constantly refreshed itself by routinely phasing out characters, but he backed off after the show became a ratings hit — making the cast breakout stars — in season 1. Three seasons later, however, it's time to trim the fat by either killing some top-tier Heroes (hello, genuine life-and-death stakes!) or giving one or two a permanent happy ending. Then shore up the audience's emotional investment with the show's favorites by adding more single-character episodes like ''Company Man,'' the season 1 classic that focused almost exclusively on H.R.G. (Jack Coleman).

Great idea!

hiro would be too obvious, and if they knew the future they would know ando and hiro are still together.

Actually that's a good inconsistency that I didn't think of. At that point in time, the formula was already in use because anyone could get abilities, and yet Ando killed Hiro for the other half of the formula, but to what end? Oh wait, there I go again criticizing the show... :unsure:

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By [deXter] · Posted

      I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.

    • Nearly half of American adults now use AI, but concerns are also growing

      By ad47uk · Posted

      That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.

      They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
