Here there be spoilers--ye be warned!

Now that I'm not channeling pirates, what did everybody think of the Heroes finale? Personally, it left me a little cold. They've been building up the bomb all season, and then they tie up the whole thing with a bow in just 40 minutes. I felt like they could have done a better job with a two-hour finale. Plus, Sylar's alive?? What??

Finally! A first name! And for once I'm not disappointed (I'll never forgive them for giving MacGuyver a first name...).

Never thought of the dropping Peter bit, that's not half bad...

Plus, how sweet was the beginning of Volume 2? Hiro in ancient Japan. YATTA!!

Yeah, the "final" battle was a little over hyped, I mean come on

Select to view spoiler:

everyone knows stab the bad guy more than once or he won't die. Hiro reads comics so he should have known that. When Sylar fell to the ground, I was yelling at the TV, "Stab him again, just to be sure.". Hopefully Parkman dies. and hopefully so does Nathan.

Hell, I was yelling cut off his head! Love the cockroach climbing over the edge of the sewer lid.

I think Hiro had a little too easy a time stabbing Sylar. I mean come on, Hiro gave a war cry giving Sylar plenty of time to stop him!

I'm hoping both Nathan and Peter survived, but I doubt it.

Very... the back stories of heroes of yesteryear. can't wait

they seemed to emphasize Charles character, Peter/Nathans mom.

So who is this evil character Molly can't see or shouldn't see?

Here is all of my opinions on what happend.

1. Hiro should have made sure Sylar was dead.
2. I think Peter should have just flew himself. Although i think he can only use one power at a time.
3. Parkman will die. He took 5 bullets to the stomach!
4. 50/50 of Nathan surviving. He could have flown downward since you saw the explosion went horizontally.
5. Sylar will track down the ' boogeyman ' and try to kill him and die. So that will be the end of him.
6. Peter couldn't have died from the explosion. You saw the fututre episode when he did blow up and he was alive.

BAM!

Um...unless an explosive is a shaped charge intended to direct concussive force in only a particular direction, it's concussive force radiates in every direction. It's only on television or in the movies that an explosion appears to have two-dimensional detonation. An explosive in mid-air (or underwater) will radiate in every direction. It's not as though Nathan (or anyone else) could survive by just flying "perpendicular" to the blast. Then again, in real life, people can't fly, so maybe their using make-believe detonation patterns for the blast, too.

Keeping with Heroes trend of totally predictable storylines . . . or as I like to call it – plausible storylines without insulting longwinded pointless mysteries, this played out pretty much how I expected it to.

I saw the Nathan/Peter thing from miles away. Everyone knew that Nathan was going to come back and fly Peter out of trouble. But at what point had Nathan decided on that path? When he told Claire that this would make sense very soon, could he have been trying to tell her? Claire’s kind of dumb. If she spent half as much time listening to her elders as she does shooting her mouth off and looking pretty, she could probably save a lot people a lot of trouble.

The real question is did Peter or Nathan survive? Of course Peter has the healing ability, but a fall from that height could have some inviscid flow characteristics. I’m not sure Peter could regenerate if all that’s left is a long wake of plasma. Peter is really far too powerful to keep around, in my opinion. If he survives they will have to produce some kind weakness for him. He’s basically god at this point.

Of course, if Nathan really had it all figured out, he would have told is brother to fly himself off. The exchange could gone like this:

Quote:
Nathan: “Peter, fly away! Did your stint on the Gilmore Girls rot your brain?”

Peter: “Oh, yeah. I forgot, I’m god. Not only can lay waste to entire cities, but I can fly or teleport to any point on earth or time.”

Parkman has to die. They can’t keep all these characters around. According to certain sources they are already compromising their original premise of having a completely evolving cast, which is good, because I like some of the character. However they can’t keep introducing new characters into the main storyline without removing some others. And what good was Parkman anyway? The guy couldn’t even make detective.

Nihil est incertius vulgo, nihil obscurius voluntate hominum, nihil fallacius ratione tota comitiorum.

Nothing is more unpredictable than the mob, nothing more obscure than public opinion, nothing more deceptive than the whole political system.
