Chapter 11: "Powerless" discussion thread 12/03

Niki's dead!

DRINKS ON ME! WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO! t:

(And the best part is...even if she miraculously survived the explosion, she never got the cure! That, my friends, is a win-win!)

And here comes clinging to hope: they never said that Nathan died...just that he was shot.

Mama Petrelli crying and the word assassian say otherwise.

*pours shots*

[Matt]

Once again:

What exactly did Hiro say to Ando about Adam? And if Adam starves in that coffin, he can still die can't he...?

He said he wouldn't hurt anyone ever again (in television talk...he is going to be back and out for revenge next season )

But I'd be more concerned about lack of oxygen than starvation as he will suffocate long before he starves. Plus lack of oxygen can essentially kill the brain which seems to be his weak spot.

 

[Abaddon]

I love how Niki didn't die on camera. Her death was less final than Nathan's pretty much. She could have found an alternate way out of the building for all we know.

which would be even more pointless.

 

[Golgo-13]

Im hoping when Vol.3 comes around they resolve the Peter/future thing and have him go and get whats her name out of the future.

He doesn't need to get her out of the future. The timeline's been changed, once the virus was destroyed.

 

[Kuze421]

im so speechless over this ep.....god knows how long till we see more heroes.....im hoping the dvd has the season the way it was meant to be

I doubt they'll do that. They don't want to point out what went wrong. I don't think we'll ever know the real way the writers and Kring wanted this show to go.

 

[Primal Slayer]

He doesn't need to get her out of the future. The timeline's been changed, once the virus was destroyed.

So then what? did she just pop back to the present?

 

[Farren]

Anyone else suspicious that Mama Petrelli ordered a hit on her son?

I could seriously see her doing it. Didn't she once say that Peter was her favorite? And clearly Nathan is of no use to her anymore, since he bailed on the blow-up-the-city-plan and pretty much told her tonight that he thinks she's a bad person. Maybe she guessed that Nathan would come out after seeing the goodies under primatech.

 

[DarkSuperman]

Hell, he doesn't even have to be dead. Matt survived 3 gun shots. HRG survived a gun shot. Claude survived a gun shot. Gun shots are hardly fatal on this show.

haha true...but didn't they say 2 heroes would die? Doesn't that shoot that theory down?

 

[Matt]

I doubt they'll do that. They don't want to point out what went wrong. I don't think we'll ever know the real way the writers and Kring wanted this show to go.

I doubt it was THAT different. The only major difference seems to be Nathan gets shot instead of contaminated with the virus and personally, I like this ending better.

 

[Ion Kenshin]

so i guess irish girl is nuthin but a memory now

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Im hoping when Vol.3 comes around they resolve the Peter/future thing and have him go and get whats her name out of the future.

She can stay there for all I care

I don't think we'll ever know the real way Kring and the writers wanted this chapter to end.

True, Niki's screwed either way.

It's true, Nathan's death is up in the air. And I am rethinking the H.R.G. situation. H.R.G. was in California, the press conference was in Texas.

 

[Primal Slayer]

I doubt they'll do that. They don't want to point out what went wrong. I don't think we'll ever know the real way the writers and Kring wanted this show to go.

I wouldnt be surprised if we did. Its not as Kring is trying to hide anything. He has been honest since the beginning. I wouldnt be surprised if they do a feature or have a commentary on how the season was orginally planned out and what they had to change.

 

[Specter313]

Im hoping when Vol.3 comes around they resolve the Peter/future thing and have him go and get whats her name out of the future.

I don't know why people were so gung ho in saying that destroying the virus would allow him to rescue her, cause destroying the virus changed the timeline, which means that future is no longer around, which means she disappeared with it.

 

[Golgo-13]

So then what? did she just pop back to the present?

I don't know, but if the virus is never released then she was never in that containment camp to begin with....

 

[GNR]

haha true...but didn't they say 2 heroes would die? Doesn't that shoot that theory down?

Advertising,it's not like the writers come up with the tv spots.

 

[Kuze421]

haha true...but didn't they say 2 heroes would die? Doesn't that shoot that theory down?

Technically Maya did die...she was just brought back to life.

 

[Eddie Brock]

EDIT:

 

[Specter313]

Mama Petrelli crying and the word assassian say otherwise.

Yeah, and his eyes were pretty dead too. Unless they wanna overuse the healing blood thing, he's probably staying dead.

 

[The Chairman]

Wasn't there a shot of Sylar, Peter and Mohinder in the future in the previews.

 

[Matt]

haha true...but didn't they say 2 heroes would die? Doesn't that shoot that theory down?

Technically Maya died. And Nikki.

 

[Mysterio]

So he subconsciously uses his powers (in a flinch-like reaction) to defend himself over something he doesn't even know will happen? Thats brilliant.

i'm beginning to think you've never watched this show. either that, or you purposefully forget everything you've seen. do yourself a favor, go over to comicbookresources.com, find every issue of Behind the Eclipse, and read them.

 

[Ion Kenshin]

I doubt they'll do that. They don't want to point out what went wrong. I don't think we'll ever know the real way the writers and Kring wanted this show to go.

i disagree ....i mean they did put the original pilot on the first dvd....that was a glimpse of the "real way" things were supposed to go
