Heroes Volume 3 : Villains

[Mathachew Veteran]

This happened after the all got there powers back just after Nathan flew the Haitian's brother into the car. Go back and rewatch that part of the episode, you cant miss it.

Just viewed it. You can add this to the list of unexplained powers. Many times it appeared that the Haitian's presence alone caused powers to negate, as it did when Hiro and Daphne met in that hotel (he also was a good distance away, coming down an elevator, not standing right next to the person). If anything, it's clear that the writers don't really know how to the Haitian's negating power really works because it's been random.

[shakey]

or you just might be looking into a tv show a little too hard. its sci fi. anything is possible and should be acknowledged before even watching it. if not, we might as well just question why they have powers in the first place and how what power would be possible.

[Mathachew Veteran]

Oh please. Let's just say that the writers should've done a crappier job with the first season so that it wouldn't have been so successful, because the way judge the show now is based on the caliber the show was delivering when it first aired. Far be it from us to hold it to that standard. I liken it to the way the general consensus is on the first Matrix movie compared to the later two. It's actually quite comparable.

Perhaps the haitain can control who he effects? Perhaps its a complete conscious decision on who to negate powers on or a to create a radius of effect? That seems like a logical explanation since Nathan could fly at him, and he was un affected. I also do recall peter saying something a long the lines of "I got a shot, take off his powers" or something a long the lines, specifically asking the haitan to negate his powers specifically.. but it seemed the haitain wanted to do this stuff him self and use his "mind altering" powers instead. I dunno just a thought

That's exactly what makes sense to me.

NBC has just unveiled their mid-season plan of attack. Highlights are below:

? The series finale of ER airs March 12.

? Much-buzzed-about-by-me drama Kings takes over ER's Thursday,10 p.m./ET slot beginning Marc? Heroes' latest volume, "Fugitives," kicks off Feb. 2.. 2.

? Medium returns to Mondays at 10 p.m./ET beginning Feb. 2.

? Low ratings have prompted NBC to trim Knight Rider's order from 21 episodes to 17. As a result, the show's season (and possible series) finale will be broadcast Feb. 25.

Another terrible episode. Hopefully they can get things back on track in the next volume.

Brian Fuller Returns!

"Pushing Daisies" creator/executive producer Bryan Fuller is close to a two-year overall deal with Universal Media Studios, says The Hollywood Reporter.

Fuller will rejoin the UMS-produced drama "Heroes," which he left after the first season to launch ABC/WBTV's "Daisies," and will develop new projects for the studio.

Fuller, who is wrapping post-production on the final episodes of "Daisies'" 13-episode second-season order, is expected to officially come on board "Heroes" starting with Episode 20.

His exact role on the sci-fi drama has not been determined, but he is expected to play a key role in the writers room alongside "Heroes" creator/executive producer/showrunner Tim Kring.

HELL YES.

[episode]

what to they mean by "latest"?

Latest means most current.

[Hurmoth]

I know some of you guys still enjoy Heroes, but I have to say, I'd much rather see Heroes get canceled over Daisies :cry:

[Mathachew Veteran]

what to they mean by "latest"?

Each Heroes story arc is broken up into volumes. The writers want to have different stories to tell instead of having season after season focused on stopping the same catastrophic event. From wikipedia:

Kring confirmed that although the show does have a unique mythology, he does not want to sink too deeply into it. Rather, Kring has used volumes to wrap-up ongoing plot lines, rather than carrying storylines over long periods of time, as in Lost.

The prolonged plot has worked great for Lost, but I don't think it would do Heroes justice, at least not having the same event focused on for more than one season. So by latest they're referring to the fourth volume called Fugitives.

I know some of you guys still enjoy Heroes, but I have to say, I'd much rather see Heroes get canceled over Daisies :cry:

Blasphemy! :p

The fact that Fuller is returning to Heroes means Daisies is probably finished (at least on telly tho a movie is considered I heard).

Earplugs?

[SMELTN]

my wife asked me about that.. She thought it was a hearing aid.

[T1Cybernetic]

Were they shooting guns in that scene? might have been to lessen the noise a bit, Just a thought but i am sure they offer actors ear protection when using guns and exploding stuff etc.

NBC has announced a new Heroes Webisode series called The Recruit that will run between the end of Volume 3 and the beginning of Volume 4.

This webisode seems very interesting because it focuses on a marine named Rachel Mills that is hired by Pinehearst. Of course if you recall, the promo for this week's episode of Heroes provides us a glimpse of Nathan with Tracy looking at an army of perhaps super soldiers.

So this webisode series will dig deeper into that story line and will also feature Christine Rose as Angela Petrelli.

Well here is the promo to the first Chapter titled "Private Mills" and it is followed by several behind the scenes clips.

Thanks to SpoilerTV for the heads up.

Enjoy!!

Just caught up with everything tonight. I know I'm not the only one who was laughing my butt off when the eclipse lasted for almost 2 episodes. haha

[Pretend]

Yeah it was way to short but those episode were called eclipse....

[OfF3nSiV3]

too short?

an eclipse lasts for several hours, but total darkness lasts for only a couple of minutes, not hours like portrayed on heroes

[T1Cybernetic]

The eclipse was a bit of a distraction to me while watching the episodes :(

What they should have done was give the heroes a real eclipse and just make the abilities not work on a temporary basis until a couple of hours or so after the eclipse had passed, But never mind it won't leave any lasting impressions ;)

------- ------- ------- -------

Also if anyone is interested there is a ton of eclipse information on wiki.

#2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_eclipse

Astronomy is a favourite subject of mine :p

[shakey]

Again, if we are to place real world into this show, of course it wont work. Either get really technical and tear this show apart, or accept it as SCI FI and move along.
