Message: Thought you might like this article located here: https://right-thoughts.us/index.php/weblog/comments/heroes_fight_or_flight/ Heroes - Fight or Flight Spoilers! Many spoilers lurk below. I will be randomly jotting things down as I remember them. - I am so so SO sick of Mohinder’s simpering little voice. I can’t believe he’s the freaking narrator/voiceover/whatever. It makes me insane to listen to his sad little voice. I want to punch him. Also, he;s clearly the woman in the Suresh/Parkman marriage. - So. Poppa Parkman is a real dickhead. I would say that the power is different from the girl who makes illusions in that you must be asleep for Poppa Parkman’s power to work. But he seems to have the ability to put you to sleep, so bonus for him. Am I nuts or has each of the O.G. Twelve (that we’ve met) at one point claimed that they tried to stop the others who were abusing their power? Anyway, Poppa’s interesting. He’s one of the new additions I don’t mind. I also appreciate Matt’s growing mastery of his power. Now he can put a thought into someone’s head. It implies that he could be as powerful as his father...and maybe not need to put someone to sleep first? Or maybe Poppa doesn’t *need* to put a person to sleep, it;s just easier to get their mind to accept his projection that way? Anyway it works out this storyline is keeping my interest. Apart from Mohinder’s part in it, of course. He Mo-hinders my ability to enjoy anything he’s involved in. - What the frigging fuck is Mohinder thinking, bringing Molly back to the Company? He’s such a god-damned little bitch-boy, I just want to smash his face in. And now he’s messing with Monica. - Monica. Awesome power. As soon as they started discussing what she could do, I said to my wife “I would totally become Batman.” Think about it. You could train in every fighting style known to man. Master every weapon. Learn to do acrobatics. Rock climb. Defensive, offensive and race-car-quality driving. Everything! You could totally become the best damned vigilante crime fighter in the history of vigilante crime fighters! Obviously she’s going to do exactly that, as St. Joan in the comic must be her as seen by Isaac. By the way, St. Joan, in case you were wondering, comes from the fact that Joan of Arc was adopted as the patron saint of New Orleans. She’s also the patron saint of military women (and others). Micah can totally be her tech guy, making all sorts of fancy gizmos and whatnot. “Where does she get those wonderful toys?” From the kid that communes with electronics and machines, derr. ;) Another new character and storyline that I am enjoying. - Nikki. Man, Nikki is pissed at someone. Jessica clearly wants Mikki put to rest, but how? Will the company infect her with a modified virus? Would trying to kill off her power kill Jessica as well? And how frigging hot is Ali Larter when she’s beating the crap out of people? - Peter. BORING. Not him...the whole Ireland story. I don’t give a frig about cross-eyed Veronica Mars and I’m getting sick of all the freaking new people. Too many, not enough time to tell any one story fully. STOP ADDING CHARACTERS NOW. At least we now know where Peter got his lightning from. She must have been with.near him at some point pre-Ireland. But how frigging stupid and Deus Ex Machina was it to have her kill the older Irish brother, track Peter to his exact location and then get mysteriously called home? That’s just shitty, Lost-quality, extend-the-storyline writing right there. Plus, sorry, but if I have to look at a blonde on this show, how about you let me look at Ali Larter for awhile? Kristem Bell ain’t doin’ it, no matter how awesome it is to be able to shoot Force lightning like a Sith Lord. Also, I don’t think Peter needed the additional motivation of avenging the murder of his new ugly girlfriend’s brother. Totally unnecessary, the entire freaking thing. - Ando/Hiro/Kensei. Not nearly enough of them. I am getting frustrated at all the new storylines, and here we have this amazing tale that is happening off screen. What the eff? Why am I watching Peter kiss an ugly fake Irish girl? Why am I watching Superboy woo the cheerleader? Why am I not watching Hiro and Kensei kick Edo period ass and co-wooing the most beautiful girl in all of Japan? Who the hell is in charge of this show, the people from All My Children? Come on. The Japan storyline deserves top billing next to the “original twelve” storyline. For frig’s sake, Kensei was the motivation for Hiro’s whole first-season journey! It drove the entire freaking show, and now it’s kind of being treated like an afterthought. Tim Kring, you can do better. Stop dragging it out and start telling a better tale. Did I forget anything important?
