Heroes season 2 roundup

As you might have noticed, i didn't bother with reviewing the last heroes of season 2, mainly because to be frank i was a little disapointed. Not to say it was bad, but after a friend kept describing it to me as if it were the second coming of jesus, it was abit of a letdown.

In fact, it made the ending of s1, which was shown last week on bbc, seem pretty good, and i remember thinking it rubbish. Still corny though... 'all you need is love'...


Yeh i know, irrelevant image.... but it's cool.

They tied up the Adam storyline nicely, but not very interestingly, and, again, too predictiably. His plotline was pretty sucky anyway. And i still think he'll be able to dig out of that grave, i mean what else is he gunna be doing in there? Expect him back mid season 4 (hopefully not)

They've given us some nice stuff to theorise about aswell; was Noah the killer? Why did he suddenly become 86% less of a badass? And yeh, sylar's baacckk...

Anyway, season 2 was average to poor in comparison to the first, but im still looking forward to volume 3, whenever it will be coming out...

Heroes and more.

So there was new internet heroes the other day, 2nd last one before the strike. I can't be bothered to write anything up proper, or find a pic, so...

I was less than impressed, especially after last weeks megaton

Hopefully it will end good-ly though.

Meanwhile i have a new aim fo rthe end of the year; finish 4 games.

Cause i always get games and give up / get bored halfway through.
So i shall aim to finish...
- Super mario galaxy
- Assasin's Creed
- Resident evil 4 (thas right, still aint finished it)
- Sin and punishment

Wish me luck. ... ...

Heroes 2x09 - Also known as INSANITY

Well im writing this a full 2 days after watching, so i won't bother saying much, but basically, just watch it, watch it NOW.

Its absoloutly brilliant. Mr Bennet gets more and more awesome, and even West is pretty cool (exception: *feeble voice*'mr butler, what are you doing??') The whole episode was twisty and turny like all good tv should be, especially including the mega twist at the end, which i won't say in case someone hasn't watched... but phew!!


Badass

The whole episode is generally edited really well; elle's electric coming out being awesome, as with Hiro finding the identity of his father's killer. And its all silenced anyone (me included) who had thought that season 2 was starting to go abit downhill.... (heh yeh, that includes me)
Anyways, point is that it was almost the best heroes ever, coming second too...

... Five years gone, which was on BBC last night. Hopefully not too many people missed it due to the football, 'cause its the best damn episode in the world. I have it recorded to watch tonight (having seen it on tvlinks a few months back)

Heroes Episode Review

Four Months Ago - Episode 8 - Season 2

Well i must say i'm slightly let down. Heres the good and bad

- Good - Peter's story continues to be pretty watchable, and Adam has gone from an annoying character to a potentially awesome one in just one short episode!!

- Bad - Nikki's story - Largely unnessasary. Id have prefered fro DL to have died after Linderman shot him an all.

- Bad - Maya and Alejandro - pretty much a complete waste of time. We already guessed how it more or less started. Not even very exciting.

Meanwhile, that new woman is pretty hot. & extremely annoying but then that's the point.

Also, Zachary Quinto was in 24????



I will have to watch that season again...

Heroes, episode 7, season 2

OUT OF TIME

Well this episode was just AWESOME. Heroes is just AWESOME. If you've never seen it, GO WATCH it, and don't come back 'till you have.

A happy moment came in this episode in the form of the end of Hiro's rubbish going-into-the-past story arc, and they even made it vaguely useful to the rest of the story at the end, as we met the mysterious Adam. A pretty obvious twist (and obvious end to the plotline altogether), but it was all very well excecuted.

This is Masi Oka on hearing the news that his character's rubbish storyline has finished and he can go back to being awesome.

Elsewhere, Peter went into the future, which perhaps wasn't quite as good as i was hoping it to be (considering the amazing good-ness of '5 years later' in season 1) But it was still interesting in setting the theme for the rest of the season.

Even West didn't get on my nerves as much as he usually does this time, and Claire standing up to 'Noah' was pretty cool to see.

I'll be looking forward, as usual, to the next episode (and no, i havn't seen the promo, must stop watching them...)

Episode rating - 9 / 10
