Just watched the new episode. Hiro & Sylar =
Mohinder's one crazy ass mofo. Poor Maya, girl can't get a break.
You know, not much got done in this most recent episode. It was really slow. Hopefully next week is better. Peter's powers got taken away by his horrible father! Bastard.

[shanaynay]

I thought it was awesome. but mostly hiro getting hit a few times made me laugh.

[hi-C]

Well. That explains a lot. No, I'm serious. Regarding Arthur Petrelli. It's safe to believe that Sylar and Peter and Nathan are really brothers.

[Tung]

Only Sylar can stop Arthur Petrelli now!!!

I never really questioned it. xD I love how Sylar is a momma's boy now. Actually, I just love Sylar period.


I was wtfing at Adam Monroe. He was one of my FAVORITES GODDAMMIT.

So I guess that makes Arty a Rogue type (from X-Men). Or the Anti-Peter?

[hi-C]

That upset me too, I love David Anders!

I don't think that makes him the Anti-Peter. It's just... Peter's power, reinterpreted. Arthur is like Peter + Sylar, with the power absorbing and the destructiveness. Unless you mean "anti" like the whole foil thing. Hmmm... Sylar's still more of an anti-Peter than Arthur is, IMO.

Hey... if Sylar had figured out Peter's power, wouldn't that have made him lose his "hunger"? Or would he not need to figure it out since the two powers cancel each other out?

Edit: That's bullshit, how are they going to kill the unkillable man?

And does that make Peter completely normal or did Arthur just absorb the powers that Peter had learned, leaving his first power behind?

[superstitious]

Oh I meant in the idea of anti being opposite (of Peter).

If he were to only absorb Peter's learned abilities and leave his inherent ability, than Adam would not have crumbled since he took Adam's inherent ability (of regen). So I think that he completely Rogue's it (absorbs all abilities) minus Rogue's life force absorption. lol I read too many comics. haha

I'm not sure if I've imagined this, but it seems like the clock ticking noise that accompanies Sylar sometimes has completely stopped and I could swear it played while Peter was on screen or something. I'll need to re-watch the last 3 episodes. If so, then I would say that Sylar has control over his hunger, perhaps due to him learning Peter's behavior and the empath has, in turn absorbed Sylar's ability with all it's grotesque side effects (the hunger).

So would that mean that Peter's pop would have that hunger? Because, that dude's an ass as it is. lol

You're right, it's only been happening with Peter lately. You know, since Sylar killed Jesse. But he didn't do the brain-y thing with Peter. Whenever you see him now, he's sitting in whatever lotus-Indian style position. I think it's more like he's practicing meditation instead of learning Peter's powers

I'm looking forward to learning why Arthur faked his death/was incapacitated.

[Tung]

That's stupid how Adam Monroe died. Shouldn't his powers just be sucked, and he as no more abilities? Wouldn't Peter turn to ashes too then? Heroes need to stay consistent.

[superstitious]

Well, except that Peter is still young. There's a bit of a Dorian Gray aspect to Adam's demise. Once Adam's powers were removed, he returned to the form that he otherwise would have been (without his regenerative powers) - ashes.

Because I'm not sure who may or may not be familiar with Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray, I'll give some sparknotes:
http://www.sparknotes.com/lit/doriangray/facts.html

major conflict · Dorian Gray, having promised his soul in order to live a life of perpetual youth, must try to reconcile himself to the bodily decay and dissipation that are recorded in his portrait.

falling action · Dorian descends into London's opium dens; he attempts to express remorse to Lord Henry; he stabs his portrait, thereby killing himself.

Essentially, by destroying the portrait that embodied his own personal decay, he destroyed himself.

So by Adam having his powers taken away, he was returned to his natural state, if he had never had powers - death.

[hi-C]

Damn, Becks. Gettin' all insightful on us. I would've never made that connection (AND I was an English major!).

[Tung]

Lol Rebecca, that made sense. How'd you find all that time to find those, when you're at work huh?!

Anyways, hi-c, what does being an English major have to do with it?

[hi-C]

Dorian Grey, one of the great works of fin de siècle English literature by one of my favorite writers ever. I had to read it my junior year spring semester.

[Tung]

^ Ah I see. Wait, did you say you WERE an English major? What and why did you change?

Back on topic. Who thought the Claire thing was stupid? She was going to try to stop him with a stupid one shot tazer? LOL

[hi-C]

"Was" because I graduated in May.

I try to ignore everything with Claire these days. Except for last week, because that black hole dude was interesting.

[Tung]

really? i pay very close attention to claire if you know what I mean

[hi-C]

She's built so awkwardly though, like a gymnast. An inverted triangle. And she ain't got no tits.

Edit: Is there such thing as a butter body?

[superstitious]

LOL That's because I'm an in the closet literature snob. :p

I also read A LOT and my reading covers a lot of territory - both classic and contemporary literature, as well as comic books. I've found that Heroes draws a lot from many sources, which is why I find the writing ultimately endearing (despite patches of the mundane and illogical at times).

I was on break, Tung. Yeah. BREAK!

I sort of tune out when it comes to Claire, although I LOVE Meredith. She's a very interesting character and I wish that they would delve into her history more. Haha. Nathan sure loves the blondies.

The black hole guy freaked me out. The scene at the carousel had me on the edge of my seat, even though I knew that Sylar wasn't going to die. I mean, let's face it. Sylar dies, the show dies. That's my opinion, at least.

lol@"she ain't got no tits"

Except his ex-wife, but that explains a lot.

[superstitious]

Except his ex-wife, but that explains a lot.

No kidding. Marry the dark haired intellectual and elitist dark haired beauty but f**k the blondes. Sounds like a typical politician.

[AsHlEy-N-aNdReW4...]

Hey people wats up? I just watched that show for the first time on monday!!!!!!!I raelly liked it!!!!!!!!And i think its kool how she cant die!!!!!!I hope im talkin about the right show!!!!!!!!LOL im kinda loopy right now!!!!!!!!!lol dont ask!!!!!!!!

[Joanne]

HOLY FREAKING HELL. I just watched the episode. It was awesome. omfg.



And I read half of the recent posts..... Arthur Petrelli didn't only take Adam's power, but he also dehydrated him (that's why Adam cracked and died). There was a guy with that power in the Heroes graphic novels.

Okay, I just read Rebecca's post. That explains a lot!!

Meredith was pretty cool in this week's episode. She usually bugged me because she would also show off her power with that cocky look on her face.

[hi-C]

And we only saw him take the lightning from Peter.

Just because we saw him take lightning from Peter doesn't mean that he hasn't taken Peter's other powers. Peter automatically absorbs powers from specials he encounters. For example, Peter had Sylar's power from the first season, he just hadn't known how to access it. The question is if he took Peter's original power, which he probably has.

But if that's the case, Arthur is probably going to give Peter that formula because he can't stand people being normal (i.e. Nathan).

[superstitious]

Ok, someone at NBC seriously needs to fire Hayden Panettiere. She's an utterly dreadful actress and is just killing the show for me right now.

I don't know what's worse, her lack of talent or the gallon of bleach they must have poured on her hair prior to filming tonight's episode.

[Gryffindor-Girl]

Wow all I have to say is that I HATE Arthur Petrelli!
