Yeah, I saw that too, but I forgot to post it... I think someone also posted it in the Episode summary discussion.

I have a link to a site which describes the physics problems with Hollywood cliches like people being thrown backwards when they are hit with bullets or surviving being thrown through a glass window.

Fun for nerds. After reading this, you may find most Hollywood action sequences kind of irritating, though.

Sometimes the production values for the show are great. And other times I get really bummed. The Battle scene with the monks just looked kinda bad. I know you can't pull that off weekly. But the background shot of Hiro and Takezo after they teleported to the mountain was not really well matched.

Just a comment.

Also the last season EFX were great except the city destroying shots. Just a little inconsistent. Sorry if I'm repeating this I haven't searched the boards, I'm new if that isn't obvious.

Lol, I believe soundorphan means the 90 Angry Ronin.

Speaking of nitpicking... in the picture of Kaito with the symbol written on his face, you can see the shoulder of the person next to him, and the suit is a light colored suit (from what I remember). In the picture that we saw in "The Kindness of Strangers," Bob (who is the person next to Kaito), is wearing a darker colored suit roll

In this scene,

New Orleans
We see Micah laying in bed while his cousin tries to wake him up by pouring a glass of water on him. They go into the kitchen where Nana is watching a cooking show. Micah's cousin then asks Nana for $65 but she doesn't have it. Micah's other cousin, Monica, walks in happily and asks them how she looks and she reveals that she had applied for the Regional Manager Training Program. She leaves and says she'll bring dinner home. She leaves and then Micah then begins to look at the younger of his two cousins and says he might be able to get him pay-per-view.

Monica says that everyone in the county will want to watch the PPV event, however, Louisiana has no counties. It is divided into parrishes. Anyone, who had lived their whole life in Louisiana would never refer to a county, and might not even know the term, depending on their level of education.

I don't think this has been mentioned yet, and I'm not sure if this would be an 'inconsistency,' or if there's a real reason behind it, but check this one out:

In "Out of Time," Niki injects herself with the virus.

Mohinder is unable to cure it with his blood because it has taken on a new strain.

Bob says that there's a cheerleader in California who can heal, and that her blood could save Niki.

Um... WHY DO THEY NEED CLAIRE to heal Niki?

THEY HAVE ADAM MONROE, ANOTHER REGENERATOR, LOCKED IN A CELL IN THE OTHER ROOM!!!!!!!!

EXPLAIN THAT ONE, WRITERS!

If they're going to claim that Adam would not be willing to give his blood to help The Company then I say poppycock! It would be MUCH easier to restrain him (by blasting him with a bolt of electricity) and then take a quick sample of his blood, rather than trudge all the way out to California and try to kidnap the daughter of someone who's trying to destroy The Company.

Hmph. Cool

Ah PK, as much as we love you, you are aware that that part of the show was set in the present...the regenerator in the other room broke out of the other room 2 weeks ago and is killing heroes...he sent Murry to implant the nightmares and kill Bob...he is now in Montreal with Peter...as we like to point out plot weaknesses in the show, this is a clear logic malfunction by you...sorry to call attention, but that was quite a slip up by you.. eek

The Haitian faked it so Pete would get found.
And please don't even get me started nitpicking on all season 2's plot holes and such. I would just like to forget about that and pretend that the strike never happened. Wink

PostPosted: Thu Dec 06, 2007 10:20 pm    Post subject: Elle the teleporter?? Reply with quote

In powerless...last episode of Volume II, Elle sees a video feed of Mohinder's lab in NY, and she sees Sylar in the room. Shouldn't she either be in Costa Verde where she was previously spying on Claire, or near Company headquarters in Texas? Or are we to assume that after she was "put on the sidelines" that she is shipped by Bob to NY for some reason. Even if she was in NY, how is she supposed to be at the lab throwing electricity at Sylar only minutes after seeing the video feed???

Because of her ability, she can also make herself into electricity, and travel the power lines to NYC?

I dunno, but heck, it sounds good, doesn't it? lol

Sorry, this nitpick doesn't work. As I explained elsewhere, some of the events in "Heroes" do not take place at the same time as are shown in relation to each other.

After the confrontation with Claire in Costa Verde, CA, Elle was recalled to company headquarters in NY. That company headquarters are in NY has been made abundantly clear through the 1st and 2nd season of Heroes. It's also clear that company headquarters are in some proximity to Isaac's Loft.

So, in fact, Elle was looking for information on her outstanding upraising by the company and her father Bob, when she saw the video surveillance in the office. She did not have very far to go to help Mohinder, Molly and Maya.

I do not buy this nitpick -- sorry.
