[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.

    • Plans. Christ at least editorialise this tripe for what it is or put your own journalistic take on it.
    • If you have a TV in your living room, chances are you can probably just use the Steam Link app and play your huge PC in big picture mode, effectively giving you the Steam Machine experience to see if you'd actually like it. The good news is the Steam Machine can have it's drives upgraded. It has a USB-C 10Gbs port as well, so the 512GB drive could be quickly moved to an external enclosure and repurposed.
    • This machine could very well be a second gaming PC for their living room as a console experience. So we would have to assume their main PC exists as well; With that said, I have 10gb home network with a 2.5gigabit internet connection here so we tend to have more than enough speed to download games. However, we can't make use of the 10gb LAN using Steam's built in transfer tool because it always compresses transfers and that slows the transfer down to well below a standard gigabit port speeds, sometimes as slow as 200-300Mb/s transfers. While that's probably still faster than most internet connections anyway, if they'd fix the LAN transfer issue it'd be upto x5 faster even on a gigabit LAN, than simply dropping a 2.5gbe port on there with hopes of a few people having fast internet connections. There are solutions, work arounds, like using LANCache if you run a NAS... or simply copying the files over manually using a network share.
    • Samsung announces ultra-fast UFS 5.0 storage to supercharge mobile AI by Paul Hill Local AI models tend to run a lot more slowly than cloud services like Claude and Gemini; however, Samsung has just announced that it has developed its UFS 5.0 solution, which increases data transfer to speeds of 10.8GB/s, enabling faster storage and processing in mobile memory that has the potential to provide more optimal local AI experiences. Commenting on this development, Jangseok Choi, head of Memory Product Planning at Samsung Electronics, said: If you’ve tried local AI, you’ll know it can be quite slow, especially if using the larger parameter models. By developing this new solution, Samsung says that storage is evolving from just storing data to a core piece of infrastructure that supports AI computation, too. The Korean company said that UFS 5.0 integrates the latest embedded memory interface standard from JEDEC and achieves up to 10.8 gigabytes per second (GB/s) transfer speeds. Regarding write speeds, Samsung UFS 5.0 can reach 9.5 GB/s. Both the read and write speeds are twice as fast as those of the previous UFS 4.1 standard. Aside from being ideal for local AI, Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is more power efficient by 40% compared to UFS 4.1. Samsung achieved this by implementing innovations such as clock gating and multi-voltage technologies. UFS 5.0 is also ultra-compact at just 7.5mm x 13mm x 0.9mm; that is 16.7% smaller than UFS 4.1. The company said it will be bringing it to multiple devices in the future, including mobile, wearable, and extended reality.
