    Lost 2/23/07 Season Finale w/ spoilers

    You wouldn't happen to have a screencap from when the stewerdess first gave him the newspaper do you? That seemed to have a better view of the article. At the very least it might give you a different view and an opportunity to fill in some blanks.

    Because it hadn't flooded. Once it started to flood he did what he felt he had to do. I was actually understanding of Charlie's death and glad that it happened. After all the build up of Desmonds foresight, it would have been silly if they let him escape. The only wierd thing was that the...

    Lost 2/23/07 Season Finale w/ spoilers

    I just watched it again on line and just noticed a line I thought interesting. When Mikhail first enters the looking glass and finds Bonnie and the other girl there, he says, "I thought you two were transfered to Canada?" or somethig along those lines. What the heck does that mean?

    Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

    Not true. Nikki has used her powers in a tactical situation coutless times. Parkman has as well, one example of which is when he was fighting Jessica. Peter has also used his powers in his two previous encounters with Sylar. You also can't explain away everyone's ineptitude by saying they...

    Yes he is. He has shot Sylar before with no effect.

    So you agree with me that they railroaded the characters actions, regardless if it was sensible or not, to have them do what the writers wanted them to do? Good, then we are in agreement. I also consider that bad writing.

    Lost 2/23/07 Season Finale w/ spoilers

    To be blunt, this is poor logic. So just because you asked him nicely, you NOW think he is going to tell the truth? The large majority of those watching would have been shouting for someone to whack him in the mouth, just like the french woman did, just to have him stop talking. It would have...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

    If you think I am looking at it from a D&D prespective then I have failed in voicing my complaints. D&D is a small part of my life and is about the least likely prespective I would have in viewing a show. As such let me try again. I don't have a problem with the amount of action, although...

    Wow...now that was a finale! Totally mind blowing! I can't wait till the on-line version is up and running to see it again. I am thinking the reference to his father might be to him in the morgue, maybe?

    I don't know what? What would actually happen? Sure. Who knows what was actually happen. However, we DO know what THEY thought would happen. They stated it repeatedly. They decided that, since Peter could easily survive it, Claire would shoot him if he started to go nuclear. That was the...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

    Since everyone is insistent on comparing it to D&D, I will add my own comparison. Sylar escaping felt like railroading of the worst kind to me. The DM didn't want his pet NPC villan to die yet and created the most unlikely of senarios to pull it off. As I mentioned previously, I would have...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

    In that particular moment sure. I can buy that. In the time it took for paramedics to called and arrive, treat parkman, and put him in the ambulance, and still nobody went to check on him? Normal human reaction was for Nikky to check on DL despite being shot. Normal human reaction was for...

    I would have been much more satisified with it if they were would have added the three second snipet you described above.

    Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

    Clear to many others as well. There are more then a few that had a similar thought process. And lets not forget, these are not actual people reacting to actual situations. I am not blaming someone that couldn't perform under a pressure situation. I am criticizing the writer's thinking of...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

    Parkman, a trained police officer, had already fought Sylar once before. The first time he shot Sylar and was unable to kill him. Why he thought he would have greater success this time is a mystery. Mohinder had also fought Sylar and actually managed to take him prisoner, until Sylar...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

    Also don't forget how cocky Parkman was about being able to take down Sylar when he was talking with Noah. Does Noah try to stop him? Explain to him how powerful Sylar is? Nope. Making it even worse is the fact that Parkman had already tried to shoot Sylar once before in episode 3. Sylar...

    I was hoping for the same thing if Sylar has to be back next season.

    Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

    Normal, human actions? Do you need to be an omniscient viewpoint metagame-capable RPG player for someone to actually double check and make sure that Sylar is dead? Heck there are dozens of people standing around, ambulances, the heores themselves and not a single one of them thought to go...

    Heroes Season [Volume] 1(#23)---5/21/07-'How to stop an Exploding Man' Season Ending.

    Yes, you are off the mark. In Episode 3 Sylar exhibited traits of being able to move quickly/stealthly. The female detective had chased him down a dead end alley way. Sylar was able to "suddenly disappear". And this is long before Peter met the invisible man. Speaking of that encounter, if...
