Sat Nov 04, 2006 8:53 pm

The TV show that warrants a split even faster than LOST.

That's because Heroes > Lost. :P

Anyways...

Personally, I like the Gollum scene better because it is hard to go wrong with Tolkien, but the Heros version was just as fun. As another little side note: I think the producers may have used that scene as a jab at the old method of creating a twin for a person who isn't one by having Nikki next to the mirror. I just thought that was a cute little nod to old school production methods.


Yeah, I know what you mean with the Gollum scene. In the episodes before this, Nikki/Jessica reminded me of some character I've seen elsewhere, but I couldn't place it. Then this past episode, I realized it was the Smeagol/Gollum scene because of the good/evil personalities and the camera angles used.

Except for the fact that Nikki/Jessica is way hottern the Smeagl/Gollum.

:o

No way! There is nothing hotter than a magically-deformed, balding, grey, spaz of a former-Hobbit in loincloth.

Except for a blonde, fit, voluptuous lassie who has a split personality that can kick anyone preverbial behind :P

Tonight's episode was MUCH better than last week's.

Okay, so I have a theory that Radioactive Man is going to be the bomb that blows up in New York City. I can see it coming. And he and Matt have the = sign tattooed on them, and I think it's part of the RNA strand that we see everywhere, like on Jessica (and it was confirmed in this episode that she's Jessica ;)). It might appear when they start using their powers, so maybe the other heroes have them.

And I don't like Nathan. :\

Oh, and Micah owns.

I'm thinking the two dash are not the RNA sign but instead a brand type thing that HRG puts on his patients.

Something that has been bugging me for a bit... Nikki/Jessica has nothing on Number 6 or Number 3 as scariest and/or toughest female character on TV. You would think NBC/Universal would know that since they already own Battlestar Galactica.

Bah my tape ran out so I didn't catch the last fifteen minutes and NBC online isn't showing the latest episode yet .. grrr. Now I have to wait until friday to catch it on sci-fi

*wants to cry* :cry: :cry:

Hmm, the little tattoo thing kinda reminds me of Dark Angel - where they had barcodes on the back of their next... these are a little more subtle.

I totally loved this ep. I'm loving how all the main characters are starting to bump into each other. Micah's power totally rules.

What's the deal with Peter... is he able to fly without his brother there? If so, will he be able to use any of the powers he collects at any given time? Was it a power that was given through family, or is his power just to mimic other powers?

That was exactly what I was thinking with the whole radioactive guy! Especially when they hinted to it by saying "nuclear bomb" in one of their sentences. But the whole tattoo bit? I thought that it might have something to do with a type of marking. The guy with the glasses could've put it on the people he has captured and used in some way, as a way to not get mixed up with who he has and hasn't found. Or a form of tracking?

I think his power is to mimic others. He just thinks he can fly as that was the first power he was able to produce and since he's drawn it. He can only fly when his brother is around, as he can draw when the painter is around ... however ... that one time he was in the hospital, he was able to predict the future without the painter ... so hmmm

o_O

Peter's power is kinda like Rogue's from the X-Men, except the people who are touched don't go through a power drain. Also, I think he can keep the powers he absorbs for a small amount of time, which is why he drew the future in the hospital when Isaac wasn't there.

Er, I forgot to add that the tattoo was put there by HRG, but the other thing I said is just a theory.

I hope we see the REAL Sylar in the next episode.

Sun Nov 12, 2006 12:21 pm

Okay, could somebody help me compile this list? I want to make sure i have my people and powers straight....

people with powers

Image Claire Bennet
Power: Regeneration
Special Notes: Daughter of possible evil mastermind of the show.

Image Hiro Nakamura
Power: Time Bender
Special Notes: Always with Ando. Apparently becomes a super cool hero guy in the future.

Image Niki Sanders / Jessica Sanders
Power: Can you think of a good word for "Has evil twin who does things without her knowing it?"
Special Notes: DL's husband, Micah Sanders Mother, Was originally niki before she devloped her powers, but the DEFINETELY BAD form, jessica, appears without niki's knowledge. Niki is otheriwise DEFINETELY GOOD.

ImageD.L. Hawkins
Power: Walks Through Walls
Special Notes: Niki Sanders husband (But with a dif. last name), Micah Sanders father. Was some what framed by niki to have apparently committed a crime, and is on the run from the law. Hes trying to save micah, not from niki, but from jessica, but doesnt necessarily realise that there is a diffrence between the two.

Image Micah Sanders
Power: Healing Powers
Special Notes: Son of Niki and D.L.... he knows about both of his parent's powers, and has his own, but keeps it secret from his parents..... i guess he can touch broken/injured things or people and heal them?

Image Issac Mendez
Powers: Can Paint The Future
Special Notes: Drug Addict. X boyfriend to Simone Deveaux. Apparently might be killed in the future? Or was this prevented because of Hiro travelign around through time interfering with things?

ImageNathan Petrelli
Powers: Flight
Special Notes: Brother to Peter Petrelli .... had a uh.... moment with Niki. Managed to escape from the bad guys.

Image Peter Petrelli
Powers: Rouge
Special Notes: Only can fly because hes constantly in around his brother, Nathan. Yeah.

Image Matt Parkman
Powers: Mind Reader
Special Notes: WAS captured by the badguys, then released.

Others with powers (in order of most known about them):

Image Haitian / Mysterious Man
Powers: Can steal peoples memories? Without removing the brain? or sometimes removies the brain?
Special Notes: Henchman of Mr. Bennett... not much known about him either. I guess he has a name now? Haitian?

{insert picture here} Name: I dunno. That crazy guy who watched his wife die.
Powers: can give this radioactive burns with his hands.
Special Notes: I dont know much about this dude yet.

{insert picture here} Sylar
Powers: Umm... a lot of them? Acquires them from people that the bad guys capture or something?
Special Notes: They been tracking his clues, but have found that he manages to flee the scene before they get there. HE has a a lot of powers for some reason, but his identity is still unknown. He probably has ties with Mr. Bennet (Claires dad)
------------------------------------------------------


am i correct in saying that Mohinder Suresh (
Image) does not have any super powers, but just looks around for information his dad might have left about this evolution stuff, with his "friend" ImageEden McCain) but she is apparently in cahoots with Mr. Bennet doing who KNOWS what....








allright. now can anybody correct any of this?

Sun Nov 12, 2006 1:12 pm

According to E!'s sources; Zach Quinto will be playing Sylar.Image

Sun Nov 12, 2006 2:45 pm

None of the pictures work for me. o_O

To be clear, Peter's power is not like Rogue, it's more like Mimic, who is another person in the X-Men Universe, since apparently Mimic can absorb other powers without draining them of their life force.

D.L. is more of a phaser, which means he can walk through anyone or anything. And Mohinder doesn't have any powers, he's supposed to be the one who brings everyone together I guess.

Oh, and Hiro is a space and time bender. Isaac was killed in the future, but that was before the bomb exploded. Since the heroes are supposed to prevent the bomb from exploding, maybe Isaac's life will be spared.
