My (very belated) Heroes Finale Review

Apr 29, 2009 07:26

It is with great sadness that I must inform you all (like you didn't see it in the finale) there was NO CLAUDE EVEN THOUGH THE TITLE WAS AN INVISIBLE THREAD. Feel my righteous fury! RAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWRRRRRRR!!!

And I'm done.

Poor Mohinder didn't do squat in the finale )

Hey, we both can live forever, wanna shack up? Wanna be my Mrs. Darth Vader?

Icon.

How did Sylar fly in through the window on his own?

I think he can take powers without cutting their heads open, that's how he got the shapeshifting power. Remember, back when the writers hadn't lost their damn minds yet and he took Elle's power from her without killing her? I think he's learned to do that. Or maybe he stole it a long time ago or maybe from Papa Petrelli in a scene we didn't see.

Or maybe he's just Sylar and he can do whatever the Hell he wants. I think that's the route the writers are taking.

I am confused about who knows Nathan is Sylar now

I think it's Mama P, Matt and HRG. They were the only ones who were in the room when it happened. They must have just told Peter and Claire he was dead. Or that Nathan killed him.

Who was the body being burned on the pyre?

I'm pretty sure it was the shapeshifter Sylar killed while he still looked like Sylar. HRG knew about the body because he had seen it.

YAY ICON!!!

Okay, that makes sense. I just always thought it wasn't about Sylar taking the power as it was Elle giving it to him. Like it required empathy from him in order to take it. But I could be wrong.

Ah yes, the shapeshifter body! I forgot about that one. Man, Peter is going to flip OUT on Mama P when he finds out.

WRITE IT!!! Of course, I want to read fobwatch Nine and Chyan too. We'll see who writes it first. Or we both will. Or we both will procrastinate and not! :D

I think Mohinder/Peter is my secret ship. It just kinda slipped in there for no reason, makes ZERO sense, but I like it.

Alex Mack was AMAZING. And Salute Your Shorts! I want to watch that now.

I think that was the case with Elle, but then he manipulated it to just be able to do it without the killing. Or something. Like I said, he can do whatever the hell he wants!

Man, Peter is going to flip OUT on Mama P when he finds out.

I am oddly looking forward to that scene. It will be awesome, I hope!

So I just finished Season Four of Doctor Who (I blubbered like a baby, there will be a post later) so I'm really in the DW frame of mind right now. So I'm probably going to finish the fobwatched!Nine fic. Then I'll finish the Chyan one. I just don't know when either of those events will happen, lol.

I think we'll both procrastinate, haha!

I think Mohinder/Peter is my secret ship. It just kinda slipped in there for no reason, makes ZERO sense, but I like it.Ditto. I don't know why I ship them, I haven't even liked Peter until recently! ( ... )

Yeah, at this point, Sylar's just all powerful. Funny how he never has to clutch his ears anymore because of the super hearing.

I'm looking forward to that scene too. Especially since he was so loyal to her this season.

THAT IS MY FAVORITE SEASON!! I can't wait to read the post. Yes, must read fobwatched!Nine. Must.

Yeah, we probably will.

Pretty goes well with pretty.

Oh yes, I can see the Sylaire fics already... or whatever that damn pairing is called. (heh, I actually DID read it once and enjoyed it, so I shouldn't mock. But I don't read much Heroes fic and I assume there's lots of drivel out there)

I AGREE, IF THEY'RE GOING TO KILL A PETRELLI IT SHOULD BE CLAIRE.

Ahem. Kinda creepy, Sylar being in Nathan's body like that... not being Sylar but not quite being Nathan either... how could he have ALL of his memories, anyway? I mean, seriously??? But it's an interesting plot twist. I like that Angela is creepy enough to want to do it, and thus "hang on" to her boy in the only way she figures she can. Like people who get their pets cloned when they die >.>

I TOTALLY thought of you when Tracy sprang up like that. I could hear your "Nooooooooo!" in my head. *snicker*

This season seems like it was really LONG. I guess cuz I watched the first two so quickly. Nathan getting shot happened at the beginning? Wow. That's kinda cool.

I don't read NEARLY as much Heroes fic as I'd like to. I'm sure I could find comms for it, but I don't look hard enough.

What bugs me about the "I must save my son at all costs" thing was that Angela was perfectly willing, two seasons earlier, to let Peter blow up. Now she's being all "wouldn't you go to any lengths to keep your child?!" Makes no sense.

Hahahaha! It was a big "Nooooo". Kinda like this.

Whoops. Forgot to finish my comment. I know what you mean about it being so long. I didn't start watching Heroes until a few episodes into the third season. So I cranked through 1 and 2 super fast as well. And that's when you realize certain mini plots are totally useless. We'll probably look back at the Eclipse 2 parter and be like "??????"

Well, Peter was a big disappointment to Angela! She didn't care if he blew up! Awww, poor unloved Peter.

I still wish Sylar was her kid.

I'll have to watch the "no" thing when I get home :)

I need to rewatch Season 2. That was so short it shouldn't take long. Either they dropped some plots from that or I already forgot how some of them turned out!

Poor Peter!!!!!!!

That would make his proposition to Claire even more gross!

I was having fun searching for No's. :D

They dropped a LOT from season 2. The writers even admit they want to pretend a lot of things from season 2 never happened, which is why a lot of the characters dropped off the face of the earth and aren't coming back. Specifically Caitlin the bad Irish Accent Girl, West Rosen the BF, and Monica, Micah's cousin. And I think they want to pretend the whole Claire's-Blood-Can-Heal-Anyone plot is non-existent. Even though it saved Nathan at the beginning of the season. It looked like since he had her blood he could never die, like her.

I have no idea what any of this means anymore, but the Doomsday Clock thing is cool. It seems like Nathan dies in every finale.

And hehe, I'm totally digging the Prestige ref.
