Three To Go
Instead of posting three separate times, I'm going to talk about three things in this post... which is just coincidental to the title. That actually refers to three episodes of Heroes to go.
*******
Next time on Scifi Smackdown: X-Wings vs. Starfuries.
Whoa, slow down! Don't get your combat gear on just yet. This smackdown is a little different. Imagine you're a warlord attempting to buy some fighters and you have a choice between these two. Which would you pick?
I don't really know enough about Starfuries, to be sure. And the question that's going to decide for me is what universe are these for? There's no shields that I can remember in the Babylon 5 universe. Shields would be helpful of course, but they just don't have that technology. I don't think it's fair. Starfuries seem more maneuverable, but that's because the writers took into account that there's next to no friction in space where the Star Wars dumb-ass decided that a snub-fighter has to move like a jet in atmo, even when in space. So, again, the match-up isn't quite fair. But then again, Starfuries need a jump gate for FTL travel, but X-Wings have their FTL on-board. I think I'd go with X-Wings in my uneducated decision.
As for the under-card: Darkwing Duck vs. Duck Dodgers!
I will allow for small discussion on this topic here, however, keep it to a minimum. We don't know the rules they're placing on these fights, and it's really the podcasters that want to know what you think. So go listen to the show!
*******
I've heard a new reason to not read the Harry Potter books. One of my coworkers says that she tried to read them but they got too wild for her. I inquired further and found out that she has an incredible fear of snakes! What do you say to that? I mean, if a woman that's past 50 hasn't gotten over her fear to the point of being unable to read about it, what can you do?
*******
What is Angela Petreli's power? What is with Peter's visions? Now combine the two questions to get an answer. Mom was giving Peter those visions. No wonder he's able to see visions of people he's never met. I'm sure she knows all about them. I knew her power was manipulation!
Peter goes to see Claire while she's packing for her vacation in Paris. He tells her about his supposed destiny, and she tells him about Mr. Theodore "Boom Boom" Sprague. "Who the hell is Ted?"
Is Sylar actually going to see the error of his ways? He reaches out to Mohinder when he realizes his apocalyptic potential. But, you can only hurt someone so much before they try to send you to jail. So, then he goes crying to mom... well, maybe not crying. "You're a murderer. You don't get the luxury of regret." "I had a reason: To take what others didn't deserve."
Who is Molly Walker? Remember that little girl from the second episode that Matt saved? That would be her. Why would Sylar want her so badly? Not sure. But that tracking system that Mr. Bennet was talking about in the last episode happens to be called the Walker System. Wasn't there a character like that in the last X-Men movie?
Friends long gone? Look for a return of Simone and Daddy Deveaux in these upcoming episodes. They've got powers, and apparently Simone's is not kindness. We'll also be seeing that long lost FBI agent, Audrey. Not that I was missing her.
