Heroes (contains spoilers)

Heh heh. Expect unsubtle bowler hats walking past and people drinking milk.

Yeah but if anyone can play a merciless baddie it has to be Malcom. I bet he has a secret agenda for the good (after he's done lots of evil obviously)

Wouldn't be surprised to see him die in some selfless act that is totaly contrary to his evil persona. That's how this stuff normally works

 

[pyrovitae]

this just in, apparently Malcom McDowell has signed up to play Linderman

fantastic!

this is my new favourite show on television - the twist at the end of episode 14 blew me away. i was a bit disappointed by george takei though, the halting inflection he's infamous for was lost in translation.

 

[ruffneck23]

i think mr sulu has signed up for 3 episodes so far so expect more from him

 

[Stigmata]

It looks like they might have rejigged the format slightly in the last episode, which is a good thing IMO. Before they'd try and write in a stroyline for every character in every episode, with the end result that not much happened to the individual characters each week. In the last episode they focused heavily on Peter, Hiro and Clare, which made the episode more satisfying for me at least. DL, Mohinder and the LA cop guy weren't in the last ep at all, maybe it'll be their turn next week.

Just started watching this and the 1st two episodes rock.

I'm getting the 1st 14 now, i might have watched them all before that downloads.

 

[ruffneck23]

oh my god @ ep16!!!!

plus a cameo from none other than Stan Lee

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

I should get back on this baby.

I did a heros marathon at work last week. I am the least hardworking and uncommited man alive.

I done Heroes Ep1-15, BSG Series 1... at work last week

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

I done Heroes Ep1-15, BSG Series 1... at work last week

That is some good work.

My computer faces out to the rest of the office so everyone knows what I'm doing. I have loudspeakers too so I am really taking the piss.

How close to the line do you fly?

 

[Kanda]

I face a window so anyone in the office can see over my shoulder, I use headphones though

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Me too. I have a lovely view of London. I'm 22 floors up.

This is of course not relivant.

 

[ruffneck23]

can you lot hurry up n watch ep16 , i wanna talk bout it

 

[dogmatique]

Without giving owt away - fookin great episode, things are really starting to come together.

It really really makes a difference when a series has been plotted out properly and moves towards a definate point, rather than the continued thrashing around in the morass that is Lost. Anyone notice that lost has been shunted into a later slot on ABC? I fear for it's future.

Whereas Heroes is setting itself up for a completely different second series, not just a single cliffhanger based on a single event a la Lost.

Loving watching the Hi-def rips too...

 

[ruffneck23]

yeah and we've still got 7 eps left of the season it seems like the writer (s) have really given this a lot of thought , lots of shocks . Its not often that a series storms through its first season like this , i have big hopes for the future

 

[dervish]

Ok that confirms it. I'm going to have to burn shitloads to disk now, to make room for all the eps of Heroes I'll be downloading tonight. I watched the first ep on sci-fi last night and though it was great, definitely need to see the rest now.

 

[f for fake]

Just half way thru episode 14.....man this series is good. Along with BSG, this has restored my faith in american tv.

only seen 11 episodes
i did find that some bits got very boaring and i had to sit through it to get to the good parts. I liked how they do a lot of histroy for each person which some other sci fi progs dont.
Love the visual effects
love how im going "look its him and her walking past each other" but they dont know each other

 

[Balbi]

just watched E.3. E.4 now loading up.

the quality is great, compared to other such sites.

 

[mwgdrwg]

I've only read the first post in this thread for fear of spoilers.

Anyway, I'm up to episode 11 and this is the best television in YEARS. Absolutely fantastic stuff that leaves me gagging for more every week.

I got bored with Lost after 7 episodes, this is far superior.

 

[Sunray]

Fuck, watched them all and now waiting for them to be released...

Last one was great.

Hiro is the best character in these shows ever.

Best and subtle change was to get rid of that stupid announcer saying in true hollywood trailer mode 'Hiro discoveres his destiny, we discover more people with special powers and Mary unearths a secret past' or what ever to the Indian guy with that pseudo psychology stuff over the recap.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Ok so a few have us have started watching this , and IMO it's pretty good , its pretty dark and it will be interesting to see how good it gets . Apparently the writer has a huge storyline that will last 5 yrs........

What do you all think?



p.s. Hiro is in a geeky kindaway

One of the best shows on right now. My only concern is that there won't be much plot resolution within the first season.

 

[RockandorRoll]

Could anyone post us up a link to view episode 17 in a browser? Alluc, veoh et al don't have it

 

[ruffneck23]

[Balbi]

Just finished watching E.8.

Hiro is my hero

 

[dogmatique]

Just watched the latest episode.

Probably the best one so far. Really, really good. Some back-story at last! This series is really coming together.

 

[Sigmund Fraud]

burnt the first 12 to dvd for my flatmate to watch - he ended up watching all 12 yesterday in a nine hour marathon session. His verdict:'best series I've ever seen'. I wouldn't go that far but its certainly up there.
