[Cancelled] Heroes Season 4 (Volume 5 : Redemption)


Recommended Posts

Do you mean in the last episode mate? I think he made Claire call up her West so Peter could take his flying ability in memory of Nathan or whatever.

Yep, this was the ending scene where Peter and Claire are on the rooftop, and Peter asks for a "weird favor."

Season 1 was so epic.

I mean do you remember the feeling the first time you saw future Hiro on the subway, and having it say "To be continued". Or the first time you learned that Nathan could fly!? Or when you saw the words "End of Volume 1" and then the words "Volume 2"!! It doesn't get more awesome than that!

But now :(

Yeah I remember those days. I just bought Season 1 on Blu-ray just to relive how awesome it was. The best episode ever was the "Five Years Gone" one, that was just EPIC.

There appears to be something to that effect because Peter started flying without having acquired the power again. I know, was totally random.

yep as Bobster said he met West because he and Claire are Facebook friends :p

as for Sylar vs Peter....scrap that its Samuel vs Sylar is where its at now! :D

It's kind of a big assumption that we're forced to accept. Claire stated West goes to NYU, so he would be in relatively close proximity, but the timing of everything just didn't fit well because he and Claire were on the roof of a building, then the next time we see Peter he's on the same roof and he can fly. Initially it seems out of place, but the saving grace for this situation is that Peter isn't wearing the same clothes, so there really was no issue except the timing.

4.17 "Art of Deception"

HRG sets his plan to neutralise the Carnival in motion. Seeking to understand his desire to love, Sylar makes a visit to Matt. Peter warns Emma of Samuel's intentions.

Not sure why so many people are so stuck on Future Hiro, the future he came from has been avoided and does not exist, therefor he doesn't exist.

Because this show has slid down every week since those episodes? I hang in hoping for a return to greatness, morbid curiosity, etc... Now I just hope it ends in some quality fashion, and soon.

Hey, I'm right there with you, but bringing in a character from a future that doesn't exist...? That's grasping at straws

And that right there goes against the Grandfather paradox. This is ultimately when the show went down hill. There is absolutely no way to go back in time to change the course of history. By doing so, you alter the reason you went back in time to begin with, therefore he never would have gone to the past in the first place. This is what ****es me off about time travel in film/tv shows. They always screw something up like this. One of the reasons why I actually have enjoyed the way Lost has done it is because they can't change the past. Whatever Happened, Happened. Normally I hate time travel and this is a prime example why.

For them to keep from having a paradox, they MUST write the show where that Hiro still exists and still travels back in time. Remember when "Bad Locke" gets Alpert to tell John he must die to get everyone back on the island. He did so because he needed to end up in that situation, telling Alpert to tell John he had to die. Had that not happened, 'Bad Locke" would never have been able to tell Alpert to tell John he had to die. That avoids a paradox.

Exactly what I was going to put and use an Lost example. It's the classic grandfather paradox

Doc explains it in the BTTF movies :D :D :D

No decision has been made on a Heroes renewal, but NBC prez Angela Bromstad says she’s pleased with the show’s ratings performance at 8 and series creator Tim Kring is “pitching out his view of the next season.”

But they don't have to bring the future Hiro back. Hiro knows about future Hiro so he knows he is capable of becoming him. All they have to do is show Hiro becoming that guy. He doesn't have to be the exact same guy. Basically he just needs to stop being wasted and be bad ass. I think the writers were too scared of his power and tried to respond to the critic's complaints that he is too powerful. Same with Peter I think.

I want him to exist. I want to forget about the last few seasons. I don't remember when it screwed up, but I want it to go back to what it was before that. I know it won't happen, but one can still do a bit of wishful thinking...

The future Hiro thing gave me a sort of Terminator-like vibe. In a good way. They could have shown the future with badass Hiro kicking ass, and made the story follow both present and future or something like that.

Ausiello from EW got a chance to speak with Heroes cast members Robert Knepper (Samuel), James Kyson Lee (Ando) and Jack Coleman (HRG) at the recent TCA press tour.

Each one of them had some interesting tidbits including saying that the Season 4 finale is not really a series ending episode, but could be the last episode for Samuel. Also, Lee hinted at a possible new generation of Heroes.

Would you like the show to reboot with a whole new cast!? This could be one way for the show to save money and stay on for Season 5.

    • I hope this encodes in to AV1 or AV2 as currently tiktok uses h265 and h264.
    • Qualcomm reportedly in talks to build custom video chips for TikTok parent ByteDance by Karthik Mudaliar Qualcomm is reportedly in advanced discussions to provide custom chip-design services to Chinese tech giant ByteDance, the same company behind TikTok. According to a report from Reuters, Qualcomm could be involved in designing custom silicon tailored for ByteDance's massive data-center workloads. If it goes through, the deal would make ByteDance one of Qualcomm's early anchor customers for its fastly growing custom chip-design division, For years, Qualcomm was the king of making smartphone processors and modems. The company has also been moving into the PC ecosystem and other formats such as on-device AI for Android XR headsets. However, this particular deal is about Qualcomm's custom Application-Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). For a platform like TikTok, ByteDance needs hardware that can help it ingest, process, and serve billions of short-form videos daily. Generalised hardware is no longer the most cost-effective and efficient route, which is why ByteDance is trying to develop custom Video Processing Units (VPUs). VPUs designed specifically for ByteDance’s algorithmic needs could drastically reduce data-center power consumption and improve encoding speeds at an unprecedented scale. The underlying tech behind these processors is actually from Qualcomm's recent acquisition of AlphaWave Semi, a high-speed connectivity specialist company. By combining AlphaWave’s high-bandwidth IP with Qualcomm’s architectural expertise, the company could begin mass production by the end of 2026, if the talks go through. All this also comes at a time when U.S.-China tech relations have dwindled. Escalating trade frictions between Washington and Beijing have severely impacted the export of high-end AI chips from U.S. firms like Nvidia, AMD, and Lam Research. Yet, the Qualcomm-ByteDance discussions show that U.S. tech companies are still actively seeking growth avenues and are open to doing business with China, where regulators still permit. Reuters notes that the outcome of this deal could be uncertain, and ByteDance might also seek partners other than Qualcomm. via Reuters | Image via DepositPhotos.com
