Heroes Volume 3 : Villains


Recommended Posts

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.

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.

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:

? An hour-long episode of The Office will follow the network's broadcast of Super Bowl XLIII on Feb. 1.

? 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.

? Celebrity Apprentice will air in two-hour chunks beginning Sunday, March 1.

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.

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).

Episode 3.13 Renamed to "Duel"

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!!

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.

Astronomy is a favourite subject of mine :p

    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
    • Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
